gameplay10 positive mentions
monetization3 negative mentions

  • Unique and engaging turn-based tactical RPG gameplay with deck-building mechanics that reward thoughtful strategy and planning.
  • Generous gacha system in terms of SSR drop rates and weekly pulls, making it relatively friendly for free-to-play and low-spending players.
  • High-quality art style and animations with well-designed characters and a good variety of weapons and classes.
  • Heavy monetization with gacha and cash shop elements that can feel greedy, including paywalls for mechanics like auto-play and sweep tickets.
  • Poor English localization and translation issues that detract from story enjoyment and overall polish.
  • Lack of true real-time multiplayer features despite misleading store page descriptions, as well as repetitive loading screens and some unbalanced or frustrating level design.
  • story
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is generally regarded as bland, simplistic, and uninspiring, with many users criticizing poor or unpolished English translation that hampers engagement. While some find the narrative cute or enjoyable for a casual tactical RPG, others highlight a dull main character and lack of depth, making it difficult to invest in the plot. Overall, the story feels standard and episodic, serving mostly as a backdrop rather than a compelling element of the game.

    • “Fun casual SRPG, it's a gacha so you should know what to expect from the FTP side, it has a good if simplistic battle system, that's based around unit placement, deck building and managing how many points a unit uses per turn, nice art and story, it's enjoyable for what it is.”
    • “An interesting twist as compared to most is just how many new missions the game features, though - the currently-running-as-of-this-review second major event, Magical Girls and Demagogic Smoke, has 93 playable stages, and the White Day 'mini' event has a full twelve.”
    • “The storyline is also pretty standard episodic travels, though it at least feels like it's building up to something eventually as far as it's gotten in the English server.”
    • “Zold:out is a solid tactical RPG with a somewhat dubious storyline and translation that makes me sad it's a kind of scummy gacha game every time I play through more stuff in it.”
    • “- dull main character, making the story very bland and tasteless.”
    • “Like other reviewers said and I do have to agree, the story is very bland.”
  • gameplay
    21 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is praised for its unique blend of turn-based strategy and card mechanics, offering diverse classes and strategic depth. However, it faces criticism for heavy monetization, slow progression, and reliance on gacha elements, which may hinder enjoyment for some players. Overall, the gameplay is engaging and well-designed but impacted by pay-to-win concerns and grind.

    • “Pros: unique gameplay mechanics, diverse team selection, continuous stream of event/contents, tolerable grind, fair PvP with banlist, very free-to-play/newbie friendly, fast developer responses.”
    • “The gameplay is very interesting, like a combination of turn-based RPG and card game.”
    • “If you like strategic turn-based/card RPGs and are not turned off by gacha mechanics (there is the usual pay-to-win gacha stuff but so far I didn't feel the need to spend anything to enjoy the game - we'll see how that changes later), this game is very worth trying.”
    • “In terms of concept, this game is good but I do not recommend it because of several negative gameplay experiences.”
    • “It doesn't change too much, besides the stages and some mechanics.”
    • “Step 3) gate the skip/auto mechanic behind an item.”
  • graphics
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics are generally praised for their appealing art style, vibrant combat effects, and smooth animations, with visuals improving notably at higher settings. However, some users find the semi-chibi, anime-inspired aesthetic off-putting, especially in character designs, and note minor issues like screen darkening during mid-combat chat. Overall, the graphics are seen as good and fitting the game's strategic, relaxed tone, though a few consider the art style somewhat outdated.

    • “I love the gameplay, the graphics, and the freedom to customize with many accessories.”
    • “I love the art style and all the combat effects.”
    • “The combat system is turn based and when graphics are turned to max, the game looks great.”
    • “The art style is kind of outdated and some stages' AI auto combat graphics are not impressive.”
    • “The childish 'semi-chibi' aesthetic in battles makes even the adult women look like children in provocative outfits and poses, which feels inappropriate.”
    • “Games need to be thoughtful and friendly to the device to get the graphics right, implying current graphics can be taxing.”
  • monetization
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization in the game is generally viewed as greedy and frustrating, particularly due to paid skip tickets and typical gacha mechanics, making it feel like a cash grab despite decent gameplay and art.

    • “Monetization is about what you'd expect for a gacha.”
    • “Nice art and smooth gameplay but bad monetization by making skip tickets paid.”
    • “Combat is alright but translation is messy and the monetization side of the game is annoyingly greedy.”
    • “Just a quick cash grab for them.”
  • music
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game receives mixed feedback, with some players appreciating its nostalgic and thematic qualities reminiscent of classic titles, while others find much of the soundtrack generic and prefer to mute it. Overall, the soundtrack is considered enjoyable and fitting for the game's setting.

    • “Nice theme and I love this music, nostalgia like Suikoden and the first Ragnarok music.”
    • “Despite that, the rest of the presentation of the game is quite pleasant and gives an age of sail sort of feel, quality leatherwork designs in the user interface, crown motifs, and music that feels enjoyable and appropriate for the themes presented.”
    • “Soundtrack is pretty good.”
    • “Outside of 1-2 pieces, the music feels really generic.”
    • “I actually muted the background music and used something else.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding is a significant aspect of progression, which is notably long and tedious. While auto-play in high stamina stages can help gain experience and trust efficiently, the use of limited farming tickets restricts continuous play, making the overall grinding experience frustrating.

    • “Progression is very long and grindy.”
    • “They limit farming with tickets which is a terrible system.”
    • “Step 2) require grinding”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is well optimized on PC, providing a smooth experience, but the mobile version suffers from poor optimization, leading to a less enjoyable play.

    • “Optimized and fun game.”
    • “For a mobile game origin, this game has a very well-optimized PC version.”
    • “Played this on mobile and it was even more horrendously optimized.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is compromised by numerous bugs, and the poor quality of translations further detracts from the overall experience.

    • “Buggy.”
    • “Translations are still buggy and really poor as well.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is described as nostalgic and reminiscent of 2005, delivering a funny and lighthearted experience.

  • character development
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users appreciate the game’s character development, highlighting well-designed and thoughtfully crafted characters.
