With dragon ball games it’s really a hit or miss. Some are really well received, like fighterz, and others not so much. When I found out there was an official mobile dragon ball game I was sure that it would be a poorly made cash grab of a game. I was very wrong. While it is true that you can buy an in game premium currency in the form of dragon stones it is not completely necessary to buy them. They are quite accessible if you are willing to put in the time. I myself have only spent a small amount of money on the game and only when there is a big discount. Even without spending much money on it I have over 100 top tier characters and after years of playing I still have a lot of fun. It can be very grindy at times and there are some times in between events that can be really boring if you are high level and have most of the story stuff done. However there are almost always events of some sort going on and there’s almost always a new exciting character to summon for, seeing as that’s how the game supports itself. Overall it is a really fun game that gives a real sense of achievement when you finally beat a really tough event or grind to buy something big in the baba shop. Of all the dragon ball games created up to this point, it’s probably the one with the most work put into it and the most balanced of all. It’s really a good game and I highly recommend it to any dragon ball fans out there.
Bro not gonna lie but this game right here this game right here it’s one of a kind. I’ve been playing Spence when it was thought that lr’ing agl freaking androids was hard. I’ve been playing for a while. But that’s besides the point. This game has been fun and entertaining for the past like 4to5 years ish I started when I was like 15 so but like this game has been amazing like for us dB fans it’s a good game it’s fun it’s addictive cough(when something new comes out)cough........ehmmm. It’s very easy to play like well it wasn’t in the beginning and all when we were first trying to get the right medals and training items but it was pretty fun stuff now it’s very easy with babas shop and all. It dives deep into the story of dB with the movies alternate timelines and different series the cards look amazing and the art is just phenomenal. The animations on the the super attacks look almost as good as in the show. And then there are so many different events for different sagas movies they even got characters from fighterz. This is a really good game and I recommend it to all the ppl that see this game and or watch dbz. Heck I have only paid for like what at most on the game only 150 bucks all together. I really do recommend this game if you want your time to go by or a game you can compare it to with friends and have fun but don’t like take it over board. #jesuslives#dokkanbattle
Let's start out with the only bad thing here. It's Pay to win. Now that that's out of the way. Let's talk about all the good this game has to offer. Dragon Ball Z Dokkan Battle is a unique game with a very unique twist on the usual beat em ups. This is refreshing to say the least since most of us Dragon Ball fans are used to that formula for those games and the mechanic can either make or break the game. You collect these orbs that let you obtain ki for your ki meter that can be seen whenever you fight something. This game also comes with it's own story mode, can be completely f2p if the person so chooses (which is still viable to this day), and new things are added all the time. Sure, you can empty your purse of money into this game to get rare characters you want, however, the game already gives you plenty of dragon stones (this games Gotcha currency). Each of the story missions give you three stones and there are almost always events that give you special missions to gain more stones. I'd say it's worth it to grind a bit and earn a bit. It makes the experience of the game more genuine and fun. As a player myself that has trash luck, you can always make the best of your situations. That's why there are so many ways to play this game. And it's still being updated and modified! In my opinion, this is one of the best Dragon Ball games of it's time. Just look past that stamina issue...
I’ve been playing since the global version was released and have logged in 90% of those days since it was released. I’ve seen this game grow into something great. Compared to other mobile anime summon type games Dokkan takes the other by a lot. You could spend zero money on this game and still have a great time, good characters, and enough stones to summon. The addition of a guaranteed SSR character on a x50 stone summon is huge and was the biggest step in the right direction. Also the inclusion of rates was huge too. When it’s celebration time either monthly or annually they give out honestly more than enough stones if you want to summon or save. This recent 5 year celebration has been the best yet and I expect to be better than the last each time. You could skip the monthly banners and save your stones because once the big annual celebrations hit you are treated to amazing summons with tickets, loads of stones, and content then you can summon on the banners and get the monthly Dokkan characters you missed. Lastly the coin system with 10 coins per 50 stone multi is monumental because it does push you summon more, but there’s an end goal in mind. Thank you Dokkan you have built memories, pasted time when bored, generated hype, and have created an amazing experience overall. I can’t wait to see what’s in store years down the line!
When I first joined this “Dokkan Battle”, I basically was confused on how things worked. But during an update, the loading screen appeared. It showed tips, actual tips. Type advantage, strategy, Ki buildup, and how to greatly increase your favorite characters. This was a game changer. And as I got into the game, they pass out resources to get characters. The currency is unbelievably easy to get, by grinding events, or simply winning a very small battle. And the characters may lack power at times, so people unlock “Hidden Potential”. Hidden Potential is a cool game mechanic that allows you to upgrade your character to grander heights. And in order to do so, you have to do a very quick event. And in return, you will get that ability to power up literally anything. Another thing to mention is that the animation may look a bit… Pixelated. And if you don’t know why… Here’s why. The creator’s often use cutscenes from movies, or the show. (DB, DBZ, DBS) They basically put different fighting cutscenes into each character. And if your matchup with another enemy is something like (Frieza and Turles) it will look pixelated. Why? Because that didn’t happen in the show. So they simply put a sprite over it. Which is pretty smart, and the pixels aren’t a big deal. Anyway, thanks for a great game. As I said, this is now my hobby.
If you're a fan of the series than you'll love this game...no doubt. However be warned that "free to play" only lasts so long before you run out of ways to earn dragon stones (the in app currency). At that point you have to wait for the extremely slow distribution of more stones by the developers (as slow as 1 stone every other day or so at some times), or take the plunge and buy stones. You tell yourself at first it's a one time thing to get a few more summons for the featured card, however being a completely randomized summon generator there's no guarantee you'll get the featured card. That's all known before you go in, but like every claw game or slot machine (a more apt comparison) the more you pull and not hit the jackpot the more you want to keep trying to justify everything you've put into the game up to that point...and believe me the rates and price to return value on some of the summons are completely unfair (for instance a multi summon takes 50 stones which are approximately $.50/apiece meaning the summon actually costs $25 and if you don't get the card you're hoping for or even an SSR level card with that summon than you just wasted $25). That's the danger of this game, and the only thing you have to be aware of when playing. As long as you can keep those "gambling" instincts in check than you will find hours of enjoyment here.
Can we please please please please please have the ability to sort by link skill! Great updates added and love the new summon animation! Thank you! Love this game! The character card art is impressive. The gameplay is fun and interactive. I think you should be able to search by link skill because there are so many characters and so many skills. I am new to the series and game and love both but it’s a learning experience at the same time. Also, add a 4x speed for battles. Keep up the good work! Great game that doesn’t force you to spend your paycheck to play and advance!! Thank you! Also, when you have to spend stones to summon character cards. The N and R character types should be omitted. They should be relegated to the friend summons. It should take less awakening medals to awaken the characters. 70, 77 etc is a lot especially when you have to wait to get them and you don’t always get them during game play and your STA gets eaten up really quickly trying to obtain the crazy number of medals needed. I can’t play certain challenges because my guys are not strong enough and I can’t get them leveled up. I’ve been playing for almost three months and I only have one LR character and he was hard to level up! You should be able to sort by Link Skill. Also, you should be allowed to name your teams so you know why you created them. And finally, please let us merge two accounts!
In all I believe that this is probably one of the best grind games out there, and I’ve never had as much fun playing any other mobile game. That said there are a few problems I have with it. First drop rates for some units are incredibly low with having some of the best cards come at less than 3% for some of the banners. My friend introduced me to this during the super gogeta and broly banner and the luck he had was horrible. It took him 700 dragon stones to get the super gogeta, and he wasn’t able to get broly. I was however able to get both units and it felt incredibly lucky with how low the odds were. Second some categories for certain characters don’t really make sense if you know the characters and off the top of my head I can really think of one, as with the lr trunks isn’t a vegetas family category. It really didn’t make sense but when he upgraded to lr trunks and mai it sort of became clear but it felt weird not to include that category. Third is the problem when purchasing dragon stones. I've gotten several incomplete purchases as it has something to do with the App Store, but it’s really more annoying than an issue and I’m not sure it’s their fault either. Overall it’s an amazing game for fans who know the story and it really is amazing to see how much detail and care went into this game! Love this game and I really hope more people get to try and play this!
