The graphics of the game have received widespread acclaim for their vibrant, comic book-inspired art style and smooth animations, enhancing the overall gameplay experience. Many players appreciate the attention to detail in character designs and the immersive visuals that bring the game's narrative to life. However, some critiques mention inconsistencies in character art and a desire for more graphical customization options.
“Beautiful graphic style, nice stories attached to the characters, chaotic and fun battles!”
“The graphics are crisp and very smooth.”
“Amazing graphics, amazing gameplay, can't wait to see what other characters from one of my favorite series will be added.”
“The only reason this isn't one star is because the artwork is kind of neat, but the gameplay is so weak that you may as well be playing an early release of Magnum Quest or Rage of Destiny.”
“Just rubbish, the graphics are just bad and look nothing like the real cast.”
“All left the game because money just answered not attention to gamers... awful strategy by the devs team... low graphics.”

The game's story is generally well-received, with many players appreciating its connection to the Walking Dead universe and the character backstories that enhance the narrative. However, players express frustration with difficulty spikes and the need for grinding or spending money to progress, which can detract from the overall experience. While the artwork and storytelling elements are praised, the gameplay mechanics often lead to a sense of stagnation, particularly in the mid to late game.
“The storyline is very interesting and a good play for the universe of The Walking Dead that Robert Kirkman has created.”
“Fun combat, characters brought to life with an interesting art style and add bits of story that help build the characters we know and love.”
“Incredible story and game.”
“Would've been a great game if not for the terrible summon rates and insane difficulty spikes between certain stages in each story chapter that will either require you to wait an insane amount of time or buy your way to progress in the campaign.”
“I can't progress in the story because the enemies are too strong, and my characters are at level 140 or close to that.”
“Story is practically nonexistent and requires quite a bit of grinding.”

“The gameplay itself is very fluid and satisfying.”
“Great visuals, and fun gameplay all perfect for an idle game.”

The monetization model of the game is largely viewed positively, with players appreciating the absence of ads and reasonable microtransaction costs. Many users highlight the game's generosity in providing free currency and summons, although some express concerns about potential cash grab elements, particularly in relation to specific in-game purchases. Overall, the lack of forced ads and a focus on enjoyable gameplay contribute to a favorable perception of its monetization strategy.
“The microtransactions are reasonable and there are no ads, which are both huge plusses.”
“A really fun game that's very generous with free summons/currency and the cost of microtransactions.”
“Love that there are no ads.”
“It's just another cash grab with a random theme (in this case, The Walking Dead) dropped over the face.”
“Absolute cash grab.”
“The major concern here is that a 10x summon costs you almost 1k more than AFK Arena, which leaves me to believe that this is nothing more than a cash grab on The Walking Dead fans!”

The grinding aspect of the game is widely criticized for being excessively repetitive and tedious, leading to a loss of interest over time. Players note that significant time investment is required to progress, especially for free-to-play users, who may find themselves facing paywalls that hinder advancement despite their efforts. While the game shows potential initially, it ultimately becomes a grind-heavy experience with little engaging content to sustain long-term enjoyment.
“It's very grindy and repetitive, so it doesn't hold my interest, unfortunately.”
“Don't plan on getting your characters up to legendary or mythic status as a free-to-play gamer, unless you're willing to put at least 6 months into grinding for about 2 hours a day. Even with events that offer a scarce sum of advancement resources, free-to-play users are going to be grinding for a very long time as this is an 'idle RPG of futility.'”
“After some quick exciting progression with a great story, you're pretty much hit with pay-to-play; otherwise, you're grinding for weeks just to advance one zone!”
