  • monetization
    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game has elicited mixed reactions from players. While some appreciate that the core game can be enjoyed without spending money, concerns persist about the presence of in-app purchases and the requirement for online play, which some feel detracts from the overall experience. Despite the ability to earn content through gameplay, many worry that the monetization strategy may overshadow the game's potential and enjoyment.

    • “At this moment, there is no monetization and you can play a decent game with the standard version.”
    • “The in-app purchases don't make much of a difference, as I can acquire everything through battles and quests.”
    • “From this perspective, the in-app purchases can be completely ignored.”
    • “There's energy limiting how much you can play and microtransactions.”
    • “This game has great potential, but I'm worried that for other players, in-game purchases and always online requirements might overshadow its excellent battles.”
    • “I wonder about the future of the game since it has in-game purchases.”
  • music
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received largely negative feedback, with players criticizing its lack of diversity and repetitiveness, particularly noting the overuse of a Christmas song during map exploration. Many reviewers found the overall sound design dull and uninteresting, detracting from the gaming experience. While some acknowledged a few highlights in the music, the general consensus is that it fails to enhance the gameplay effectively.

    • “They should add town graphics, enhance the music and sound effects, and add more factions.”
    • “This game does have some highlights, like music, animations, and beautiful graphics.”
    • “Better than all Heroes of Might and Magic games and its clones like Songs of Conquest.”
    • “Downsides: maybe some more diverse music flowing around in the headset while exploring the map and during battles.”
    • “What I was not expecting was a game devoid of interesting mechanics, the same sound effect of a dude grunting for every unit, poor translation, and graphics/music that are overall dull and uninteresting.”
    • “I can't justify playing a game that rips off Christmas music for its main map exploration theme... the game itself seems... okay?”
  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the graphics received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the polished UI and nice visuals, while others criticized them as dull and lacking detail. Many noted that the graphical representation could benefit from enhancements, particularly in town graphics and character models. While not the worst, the graphics were often described as average, with a desire for more engaging and interesting designs.

    • “The UI and graphics are really nice.”
    • “If the sound, visuals, and content improve over time, I would give it a thumbs-up.”
    • “What I was not expecting was a game devoid of interesting mechanics, the same sound effect of a dude grunting for every unit, poor translation, and graphics and music that are overall dull and uninteresting.”
    • “- Cities are upgrade charts with almost no graphics.”
    • “Comparing PAB and SOTS: it is clear at first glance that SOTS can benefit from a much more detailed graphical representation.”
  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is designed to be easy and accessible, offering a sense of endless possibilities, but it suffers from a lack of engaging mechanics and repetitive audio-visual elements. While there are decent hero leveling and abilities that add some interest, the overall experience is marred by dull graphics and sound, despite the rewarding progression system.

    • “Also enjoy that the game makes me unlock things slowly... gives me some rewards throughout my gameplay.”
    • “Gameplay is good with unit abilities and a big plus is that heroes can join battles.”
    • “This game is designed for easy and simple gameplay - just you, the game, and the endless possibilities.”
    • “I write this review with 31.5 hours of gameplay behind me.”
    • “I also enjoy that the game makes me unlock things slowly; it gives me some rewards throughout my gameplay.”
  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features four story campaigns along with a random map generator (RMG), offering a variety of gameplay options through nine skirmish maps and scenarios. However, players express a desire for additional campaign missions and races, as well as concerns about a potential limit on weekly mission play.

    • “There seems to be some kind of limit for the missions that can be played per week (why?!?).”
    • “Four story campaigns and a random map generator are available.”
    • “One branch of the story campaign and nine skirmish maps plus nine scenarios are already available.”
  • character development
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Character development in the game is primarily facilitated through resources that can be acquired after completing campaigns, which some players find justifiable despite the lack of offline play. The AI presents a reasonable challenge, but the off-battlefield character development elements contribute to a balanced gameplay experience.

    • “Many people say the game doesn't support offline play, but I think it's understandable since resources for character development (which can be purchased in the store) are settled after completing campaigns.”
    • “The AI poses a decent challenge, but the off-battlefield character development helps balance that out.”
  • optimization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users note that the optimization feature enhances troop performance and boosts economic income, contributing to a more efficient gameplay experience.

    • “Among other things, this allows the performance of the troops and economic income to be improved.”
