So, I got suckered in by the Toriyama art style, and the wolf girls. Yes, I'm being honest. I was told to expect a DragonQuest or ChronoTrigger experience, and got...an idle RPG with no real gameplay to speak of and a story that ceases to exist after two chapters, before Chapter 4 becomes "let's make you go in circles hoping for more plot, then BAM! Grind-Wall!". Maybe I went in with the wrong expectations, but I do not recommend.

nice graphics, great rates for a gacha, plays smooth. it is definitely an IDLE game, which i dont mind, so the battle system is fine for me since ive played idle games like this before. but please. there's a banner that constantly scrolls other people's pulls across the MIDDLE of your screen... please give an option to turn it off!!! it's the most baffling ui choice I've ever seen since it actively BLOCKS dialogue?? like it's so annoying it might be the one (1) reason I stop playing!

Can we stop with the forced tutorials? Let me at least change settings so I can mute the annoying music! I even had 2 whole seconds of autonomy during a battle that I could mute everything, just to get pulled into another mandatory tutorial that I couldn't get away from... and the music turned back on by itself! Louder and more annoying than before! Immediately un-installed after that.

so far I'm just clicking random stuff whatever the notifications tell me to, no real strategy or challenge yet, but the art is really nice obviously, hopefully the game will come to a point where I actually have to think about what I'm doing and use some strategy. it just a clicker game so far unfortunately.

Kinda fun but I'd enjoy it more if I could toggle off the auto-battle and auto-play so I could explore and battle manually. I'll change my review once that becomes a thing. Also wish I could turn off the constant notification bar going across the screen. Don't really care for a random players achievements unless they're on my friends list.

Doesn't seem to be a way to turn of the incredibly irritating System Messages that scroll across the middle of the screen CONSTANTLY about random people's accomplishments. I don't care, I just wanted to try the game, but it's so distracting I can't let it go. No option to turn it off is bad development and made you lose me as a potential player, and likely many others. Uninstalling, and unless that can get off the screen I am never coming back to try this game.

Nothing gets me down faster than a game that would rather not bother with the whole "player" aspect. Beautiful pixel graphics. Love the Toriyama Dragon Quest style. But when I start the game and it just does everything without any input from me other than pressing a single "go" button, especially when there is a tactical grid element? Honestly gfy. The looks get it that 2nd star. That's it. Never played and un-installed so fast.

Fun, but pay to progress. It was fun up to a certain point. Now you have to be a certain level to continue progressing. You'll beat 5 story levels and then be stuck til you increase your level and then you can do another 5 story levels, etc. Would be nice if you could choose who your characters fight. You could win some of those battles then, otherwise it seems random and e en if you have more power you still lose. I dont know. Makes me want to uninstall.

A lot of reading, feels like I'm reading a whole lot of non-sense. I started tapping through it. Sorry. Too linear. Battles so far are all automatic, they just lead me to more reading. Honestly I feel like I'm watching some person play a mobile game. Maps make no sense so far. A lot of looping around the map. I had high hopes of this being a solid throwback to some of the legends and possibly adding a touch of modernism, maybe even combining some genres but it's not much of anything honestly.

Great looking characters,interesting synergy you can make between them, im getting pretty far without paying and that's a good thing. However I don't like how only a few characters are worth leveling. most characters have inferior stats across the board, even when leveled equally. If a character is the same level and star level, it should be just as strong as any other character of that level, and not have vastly inferior stats.

core game, ok. nothing that didn't jump out other than rhe art. lots I didn't like, though. HEAVY monetization. no story, a few cut scenes at beginning, then just a paragraph for each ch afterward. ch.'s gated too player lvl. Convoluted upgrade system. Lots of 5 stars, but they ALL end up being the same 5 or 6 units. Deceptive Ads.

edit after playing for a while, it's fun for about a week. there isn't anything new or original about it after all. you need to spend a lot to get best heroes and progression is lv based to keep you coming back. there isn't much skill required at all. just star up any heroes and you can do everything except reach top of pvp. not much as far as tactics go either. the heroes skills lack depth.

It's fine. The story actually hooked me when it was developing, but then the story content just disappears after chapter 3 (on chapter 8). I can see myself playing maybe for a few more days before I uninstall. *Update* Already hit the wall. They have level capped me until the idle mechanic levels me up. Annoying cause I was actually getting into it.

Played for 8 days, got to level 57, and uninstalled. The art is nice but as other reviews have mentioned, the art is not really original. There is barely any story to speak of. After the tutorial, the story just stops and it's just constant mindless battles afterwards. There is no reason to continue other than to grind to make a number go higher.

I was kinda enjoying the game but un-installed purely because every time someone pulled a super rare hero, the game announced it with a banner over the screen, and it would pop up everywhere even when reading story elements. These popups block the text and make it difficult to read. If it was every now and then, it wouldn't be a problem, but this is constantly happening, and I couldn't find a way to turn it off. I don't care what people are pulling. Just let me play the game unhindered.

"game play recommendation" it's not a "recommendation" when the game makes me to sit around for auto-play experience to keep playing the game. lazy design just trying to force people to pay money. So far so good. Could be a little overwhelming to some people the amount of things to do, but other than the learning curve it's been very enjoyable. love the retro animation style and many of the characters are obviously inspired by old games like Chrono cr

Can't stand the RSS feed of X player got X character! Who cares! It also gives me vertigo so I had to quit right away. Not a lot of difference in strategy/play style of similar games. Text is too tiny/thin. Layout and menu is nice and easy to navigate. Artwork is smooth and well textured. Storyline of chasing someone down to beat him up because he didn't apologize for bumping into you is extremely petty. Feels like scraping the bottom of the barrel to put one together. Avoids the trope though
