Tried to come back after taking a few months off. Been on server 2 since day 1 and can't log on, just hangs up with "loading". Tried reinstalling and still doesn't work. Contacted help center and still waiting. Spent money on this game andbwanted to pick it back up bit that doesn't look like that's happening. I'm gonna write this off as a dead game until I get an answer or reply or even log in. Still nothing as of 3/20/21. Sega... its like 2001 all over again

It's a fairly average Gacha game that is convoluted by the fact that almost every aspect is ripped off of SNK's King of Fighters 98 UM OL. The reason that game works is because it's a 2D fighter with vey clean menus that are easy to navigate. That's not what's on display here, and it looks like some of the cutscenes were ripped straight from the FoTNS Ken's Rage and Lost Paradise games.

While i have just started it and can't give any detailed props, I will say it is very generous in its rewards. Just starting alone will give you 300tickets for 30 10x pulls free, not to mention 8k gems along with it! The graphics are great, it does seem to be graphic heavy, but if you play on a powerful phone or computer through a app-based program, you're bound to have lots of fun. YOU ARE SHOCK!

The game was awesome to play. Found an open server and played a couple of hours, than started getting a connection error even though my wifi is good. Fix the issue for a better rating. Pathetic, your connection issue still hasn't been resolved. Why release a game that has not had most of the bugs worked out. This is ridiculous. I better not lose what I had gained already because your game is broke, I worked hard for it before your game crashed. Get it fixed.

This is my new favorite game. Love fist of the north star and the graphics and characters are amazing. I see all the other posts saying this is totally pay to win and I disagree. God forbid you don't get all the best characters or top spots on the leader board after a day of playing...lol. After about level 55 you will have to grind a bit to get things...but that is the game. There are constant updates, events, and characters so always something to do. I highly recommend this game.

The game itself is great. It has outstanding graphics and the animation is top notch. The reason I'm rating it 3 stars instead of 5 is because it is absolutely 100% pay to win. I understand the need for IAPs seeing as how it's a free game, but the character/shards drop rate is insanely low and there's a VIP system leaving new players at a huge disadvantage. Overall the game is good, but it disappointingly follows in the footsteps of most freemium mobile games.

Game goes into data error after the first fight is over, won't reconnect even after shutting the app down and restarting. Even tried to reinstall the app, does no good. Day 1 and the game is unplayable, literally means I will never give you any money. Day 3 since release, still not able to play the game, or even get as far as the title screen to try a different server.

There is a few things to really enjoy here. If you grew up watching this then you are in for a treat because it will take you right down memory lane and it does it exceedingly well. The UI took me a min to get used to but after that I have found it very easy to navigate. The main thing here is the battles. The battles remind me of Legend of the Dragoon. Fighting the battles manually is actually a huge boon to you. It is typical yet unique for its genre which is refreshing and stable at once.

I downloaded the game could play. But when I restarted the game it is stuck connection error. Data transfer failed. I did not initiate a data transfer. It also say try again and check your connection. Please fix the game. I would like to gave a high review. Further troubleshooting of the game. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game and I still get the same error message. Must be on the server side.

I'm at level 70 and I love the story mode. The game play is a bit repetitive, when you do a secret move there could be a QTE or something for more damage or bonus, its very easy in my opinion. Im surprised SEGA didn't implement this. I'm playing fotns on ps4 and I'm a hard-core fan. Love this game, it may not be for everybody. Please give it a try. Been a FOTNS fan for 30 years! Update: Still playing after 1 year! Level 87! Level 88 now! Still fun but very upset with the server merge..

It's a pretty fun gotcha game. There's nothing groundbreaking, so don't think you'll be wowed by game play, etc. You'll hit level walls once in a while, but thinking about how you use your energy to gain experience is important... check mission req. to see what will give you extra exp. The game seems to freeze at the end of practice matches so a force stop is needed to play again. Gem drops are below average compared to the better games out there.

Not a bad game, but grindy and cumbersome to play. Lots of item collection and leveling up to do, and it gets in the way of the basic gameplay and storyline. Also, the game arbitrarily lags and crashes on my Moto G6, even at 2 Star graphics settings. My recommended setting is 3, so that's taking it down a bit. It does justice to the Hokuto no Ken series, imo, and is kind of fun to play, but gets bogged down in points management and tedious manual upgrades later on. Not much character variety too, given the setting. Just buff dudes (aside from Mamiya and Rin) with either long or short hair that look bemused or pissed. Basically, probably more for super fans than casual fans like me. I prefer the experience in other games, like the ones on consoles and PC. Ken's Rage 2 and Lost Paradise might be a better fit for players like me.

This is really a great game to me. As much as I want to rate it higher. The game has a lot of issues and keeps crashing in the middle of battles. Maybe later on after a few patches that won't be a problem. Until then it's worth trying. Great graphics and it's not super fast that you can't keep up. Unless you speed it up though seeing it run like that is hilarious.

games great but my only issue is that it overheats so bad my phone force closes it. i run it on the 3rd setting (all my games have similar graphics, its basically a standard) but since i cant, i tried a 2 but even then i can barely keep the app open long enough to collect all the dailies/do a mission before it overheats/crashes the app. i dont wanna delete the game but it seems like where this is going.

I really like this game. I like leveling up the characters and playing through the story mode. I thought the opening tutorial was great. Showing you how to play the game while waiting for the game to finish downloading was clever. I only have 2 things I would like to see added/fixed. I would really like it if you would add the option to turn on the blood effects. The original anime had it and that's what made it edgy. Second is a crashing bug when accessing training in the guild menu.

Love the game, it looks great and I've been a big fan of Fist of the North Star. I rated two stars only because of the Connection Error issue. The internet or wifi on my end is good and stable. I really do love the game and would love to keep playing it, but I cant get passed the Connection Error. Havent made it to the title screen in a while. Please fix! Edited: it's now unplayable for me

Had a great time with the game until I had to change phones. The transfer data feature is incredibly vague from what I saw. It would be much better if you simply created an account/login and data is saved. So, as a result, I couldn't carry over content whatsoever. A level 55 account down the drain. So I won't be installing or playing again, it was a decent time waster for a bit. Started pretty modest, but then gradually became a SEVERE grind that beckoned your $ to continue on.
