Epic Stickman: Idle RPG War

Very inconsistent in game play from day to day. You'll upgrade your attack and health and it'll actually decrease. The only way that you can advance in the game is by purchasing things. It also very repetitive and not fun to play past a week or two.

The ads aren't forced which is nice, but you will be needing to watch them to get anywhere in the "quest line" in a realistic time frame. The upgrades don't display when one can have a max level, which is a personal nit pick but it would be nice to be able to tell which ones have an end point and which dont. The "game" is essentially a jacked up version of minesweeper while a stick fight plays in the background. Also basic mechanics of other games with similar play are locked behind a paywall

Ads galore. They're all optional, but everywhere and needed to get stronger since the difficulty skyrockets. Floating gem ads are common, a good amount of daily missions have ads to claim, all different types of summons have ads. Whatever time you want to play expect half that time watching ads. The forever remove ads is 40$ CAD. it's crazy. Cause otherwise it was kinda fun but can't get deep enough to know how it'll last.

Enjoying the game however, it's quite unbalanced. Takes an ages to earn enough to upgrade with any real sense of change. It's very overly ad heavy and the subscription option for removing ads is laughable. It's usually the first thing I pay for when enjoying a game but only as a one off payment of a few pounds. I'm certainly not going to subscribe to monthly payments or pay the ridiculous amount being asked here to remove ads.

Outrages pricing and the waiting on ads is crazy. I like stickman stuff, especially animations and such. I was really looking forward to this but it's boring and the adpocalypse is insane. UI is very boring. You can watch ads that's fine and dandy, but making people wait to watch the ad for the free item is dumb. Just let the people watch the ads on succession to get it over with. Nobody wants to wait. The prices are tuned way too high. No way should anyone spend on this game as it is.

Like most mobile games these days, the game was built around the monetization of it. Right at the beginning of the game, ad based bonuses are everywhere. The gacha draw systems are immediately evident. You can pay to remove ads, but the pack that removes them permanently is $30 USD. Or you can buy one of the smaller packs that removes it for a certain amount of time. I did not find anything about the game to be particularly unique or interesting to spend money on it.

I run a VPN on my phone and go through an ad block DNS because I hate ads. Frequently this causes games not allow me to watch ads to get rewards. I accept that this will happen and will frequently challenge myself to beat a game without ads. This game requires watching ads to advance. To unlock the third gem, gold, or relic challenge requires you to watch an ad to access it.

Pretty solid idle game! I've played a lot of idle games where the ads are like "BIG REWARDS IF YOU DOWNLOAD NOW!!!" (blatantly lying) but this isn't one of them! The offline rewards are great, and I appreciate how it's not such a large amount of reward that trivializes whatever stage you're on. The only real complaints I have are the dungeons requiring an ad even if you have the keys, but other than that it's a really nice game. Animations are really smooth and the combat doesnt seem robotic.

if you need a bar to measure this game by, ask yourself whether or not you're willing to watch ads to continue playing and get your upgrades. before this game, I never met a game that made me want to sit through ads gladly before. and the cherry on top. I actually took time to leave a review for it. that's the first as well. Bravo. I'm hooked. 30 second ads. totally worth it. 👌 👌👌

i saw adds about it. And thought they where fake. But this game lives up to it. I love the game it's super smooth and I highly recommend. If you like games that you upgrade and let it battle itself this game is a must have. although ads are some problem if you accidentally click something you can't cancel the add. but still 5 stars

The game seems cool. Then I got an ad. Over a minute. Okay, let's see how much ad removal is. It's a plan that removes ads based on days or pay $30 to remove ads completely. $30 to remove ads on a mobile game? How about no, let's keep playing. I get some kind of spin the wheel thing, another ad, followed by not getting the spin, so another ad, followed by the game crashing. I spent more time on ads than playing the game which crashed and wanted $30 to remove ads....

Didn't think I had to write this but evidently I'm not the only one. You want to do ads, that's fine. Forcing ads for us to watch. Whatever. But making me sit though a minute ad with no ability to skip, is beyond dumb. You only do that if you're giving an incentive or rewarding the viewer... not as a requirement to play the game. And everyone else has said it: 30 DOLLARS to remove ads. Is beyond dumb. 9.99 for permanent removal of ads is a better price imo.

Game becomes very grindy quickly. Unfortunately, without leaving the game open, you won't earn as much gold offline, which sucks since other "idle" games you can. Even with ads, you'll hit a roadblock rather quickly, where you'll constantly lose over and over. Upgrading stats only goes so far, and the grind for better gear/pets/everything just gets worse. The game looks great, but if you're trying to avoid micro transactions, this might not be it. $30 to remove ads is too steep of a price point.

The art style is decent. As for why it lost 4 stars, the gameplay is boring at best. It's laid out just like every other game of this genre, and for WHATEVER reason, you're forced to watch ads to enter dungeons even if you have keys. You need to beat dungeons to progress through the game, so why am I being forced to watch ads to beat them?

Lately the game won't make it past the start load screen and keeps getting stuck on "cooperate with 3rd party". Whoever the 3rd party is, they bricked your game. [Edit:] Tried different networks, restart, reinstall, etc, and the device isn't "too weak" (real technical term there lol) since the game was running smooth before that. A lazy response of "we're sorry but it must be your fault" just reinforces my decision to give 1star and uninstall.

This game has great bones. There's a TON of content, the combat is satisfying, and progression is good. However, it really needs balancing; there is an objectively best character (paid), several stats and skills don't scale well (esp health), and the pet system feels tacked on. There's a lot of MTXs. The game has 5+ systems, and each one comes with its own perma boost. There's also a battle pass and temporary boost, which is just a subscription. Great game, just needs polish and balancing.

It's pretty good...mostly. It has some cool music and animations. Won't let me enhance some stuff under the linking tab even though I've got the required skill levels, so that's a bit of a bummer. You will hit a massive wall even if you pay for membership, no ads and the battlepass edit: down to 2 stars from 3. Reason is that it appears all health upgrades outside of the ones you use gold to get don't have any effect, I've seen dozens of health upgrades not increase the stat
