  • monetization
    244 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the presence of forced ads, particularly after dungeon runs, which can disrupt gameplay and lead to crashes. While some appreciate the option to remove ads through in-game currency or purchases, others feel that the ads remain intrusive even after payment. Overall, the game offers a balance of optional ads for rewards and in-app purchases, but the implementation of mandatory ads has led to significant dissatisfaction among players.

    • “Just a good all-around approach to monetization, in my opinion.”
    • “Great game, monetization not in your face and not even required for progression.”
    • “Limited, affordable microtransactions that are actually not needed.”
    • “I just watched an ad to revive my team, and it crashed immediately after. This has started to get extremely frustrating and makes me question continuing to play if it's going to be difficult to progress due to forced ads after dungeons.”
    • “The forced ads that seem to randomly pop up when you've just clicked one thing make this game terrible to play.”
    • “I paid for the removal of ads, but the 2x game speed perm buff, the auto buff, and all that. Yet, the game still forces me to watch ads to refill coins and get battle tokens.”
  • gameplay
    110 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of this game has received high praise for its entertaining and addictive loop, with many players appreciating the improvements over its predecessor, including new mechanics and character options. However, some users noted that the gameplay can become repetitive and sluggish, particularly in the later stages, and that certain mechanics may feel unnecessary or bog down the experience. Overall, it strikes a balance between idle and active gameplay, offering a fun and engaging experience, though some players expressed a desire for faster progression and more diverse endgame content.

    • “The gameplay loop is simple yet addictive and has kept me hooked for hours.”
    • “Absolutely phenomenal gameplay, this game is full of hours upon hours of fun.”
    • “Fun and surprisingly intricate gameplay, with multiple stats to keep track of and different ways to build parties depending on what you need to get from the dungeon.”
    • “The gameplay overall feels bogged down by lots of added mechanics that don't inherently add any fun.”
    • “After a while, grinding gets very repetitive and so it leans heavily on auto-battle mechanics.”
    • “The main gameplay loop is letting your party run through levels on auto in each new area, which is 15+ minutes of non-interactivity.”
  • story
    106 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story of the game is widely praised for its humor, engaging characters, and entertaining dialogue, making it a standout feature among mobile games. Players appreciate the quirky narrative and the charismatic villain, the Dark Lord, which adds depth to the gameplay experience. However, some reviewers express a desire for more content and quests beyond the initial storyline, particularly after reaching level 1000, as the narrative feels minimal at that point.

    • “The story of this game is very well-written, featuring hilarious characters that keep you constantly excited to see who will show up next.”
    • “Amazing game not only for the gameplay but also for the storyline, it's packed with jokes that 99% of the time land, and after you finish the story mode you still have optional content to play through.”
    • “My favorite aspect by far is the story and the dark lord, he's a charismatic and cocky weirdo and the relationship you develop throughout the dimensions kept me hooked.”
    • “The story is absolutely minimal and after level 1000 the game just gives you absolutely nothing.”
    • “Good game but sadly there is no more storyline after the warriors dimension, so I can't really have a goal.”
    • “The story is cute and all it really needs, but it's lacking replayability with any degree of investment.”

  • grinding
    57 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The reviews indicate that while the game starts off enjoyable and engaging, it quickly becomes excessively grindy, leading to repetitive gameplay and tedious progression, especially at higher levels. Many players appreciate the auto-battle mechanics that help alleviate some of the grind, but they also express a desire for more diverse content and quicker rewards to maintain interest. Overall, the game is seen as a decent time-waster for fans of grinding mechanics, though it suffers from a lack of variety and pacing issues as players advance.

    • “It became way too grindy and everything is expensive and hours of idle grinding is required.”
    • “Personally, I enjoy this game's idea and potential, but the latter is wasted on an intensive, grinding slog-fest, which is initially fun, but without any diverse content the game becomes tediously slow.”
    • “However, after I unlocked level 300 it became incredibly grindy in a not so fun way.”
  • music
    47 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Huge replayability, very simple and easy to learn mechanics, and overall a very fun game.”

    • “Super addicting and fun RPG with a fair amount of replayability!”
    • “The story is cute and all it really needs, but it's lacking replayability with any degree of investment.”

Despite these mixed feelings, the pixel aesthetic and the overall character presentation contribute positively to the game's appeal.

    • “Its alright when it's not cooking my phone for some reason when I have the auto ad gold bonus on, it just fries my phone.
