    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Well, I rated the game 1 star because I spent like $20 between buying it and in-app purchases, and as soon as I did, I tried to walk into the town and it was glitched all blue and I died instantly. It keeps repeating every time I log in to play. I emailed the developer, no response in a week, no support. The game is full of bugs and glitches.”

While some enjoy the grind, others criticize it for being overly repetitive and poorly guided, leading to frustration and a sense of immersion loss.

    • “Starts out by wowing us with immersion, but quickly becomes tedious and unguided.”

    Character development is generally seen as satisfactory, with players experiencing a noticeable progression from weakness to strength throughout the game. However, there are calls for more depth and diversity among NPCs to enhance the overall experience.
