  • stability11 mentions

    The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent glitches, crashes, and freezing issues reported during gameplay, particularly in raids and when connecting to accounts.

  • gameplay8 mentions

    • “So far, gameplay-wise, it doesn't offer anything new than what's already out there ('rpg 3d match').”
    • “This game is trash, pay-to-win with an expensive in-game shop. The hero drop rate is abysmal, and the gameplay is boring—just a match puzzle with no exciting animations or voice acting. It feels like the heroes are more like zombies. Just another bland, boring game; don't download this greedy game, though the story is good.”
