My DREST experience…

I play many online games in my free time and I have found myself freeing up extra time for this one! I absolutely LOVE DREST! I think the characters being so lifelike and the use of actual brands is what holds my attention to detail so well. I also like that you aren’t rated side by side against other players to be scored. Scoring individually is so much more fair and with every five star rating I receive, I really feel like I’m very talented in fashion and that is quite satisfying. The only issue I’ve ever had happened yesterday when I tied for first place in the stylist race for the third time in a row and I accepted my rewards, but never received them, and that is disheartening because I put so much thought, time, effort, DREST dollars, ect. into the game that I really needed the 10,000 DREST dollars I won and the three locations would have been super helpful as well. I tried to reach out to support, but have received no response, so as it stands, I’m still in first place in the silver class, looking forward to the win and moving up to the gold, but without those DREST dollars, it’s going to be very difficult to maintain my position, and it’s very frustrating. Other than that, I recommend this game to anyone who loves or even is just interested in fashion. It’s truly a great experience. If anyone from the app reads this and can help with my current issue, my user name is Destyni, and I would REALLY appreciate it!!🙏🤍🤍

Love DREST!!!

I have played a variety of fashion games online line Covet and then some cheap animated ones that just wasn’t realistic. Covet was great for so long, but you truly had to have a very deep wallet to get lot of 5+ stars regularly and I was never able to afford my true styling talents and abilities for that reason. I advanced quite far in the game to a point, but then I just want able to afford it any more. DREST doesn’t make me feel personally judged for that so far and they make it relaxed enough to feel confident. There might be an “IT” look, but you don’t have to have the specific outfit to get a five star. There are varieties of that look which helps a lot and cover it. You had to have all the high dollar pieces to the tea, not to mention the more advanced hairstyles and make up just to get the right look at every single person. Had you gotta have a little bit ofdifferent ideas and to make yourself unique in some manner some people are using the same styles, but they make it their own and I love it. Thanks for bringing this App. It’s a whole gang painter.

Missing functions

There is no sort function me so if you want an item you have to scroll through every clothing item in the game to find what you want. Then, if you want to decide between a few different items, you can’t, because there’s no way to pin them or save them to compare between, and you have to scroll all the way through the entire wardrobe of every item in the game all over again if you want to go back to an item you previously tried and there are literally hundreds of items which makes it so tedious and boring. There needs to be a search, sort, and filter function. Also ability to like items and keep them pinned in a dressing room to try different combinations until you submit your final look. Also a way to like and unlike items in a permanent list you can access whenever you want. Also the challenges are so redundant I could cry. How about some free-style challenges? Is the game really only marketing data collection for FarFetch or brands? It’s a good concept that online fashion retailers should use so you can create an avatar that looks like you and has your measurements so you can virtually try on clothing to actually buy. But in the meantime, if you want people to enjoy and keep using your game you should really step up the functionality. People spend a lot of money to play this “game” and you’re not honoring that with the limited functionality and redundancy

BEWARE! Expensive with little rewards!

I still like this game, but it’s too expensive for the little to no rewards you get from playing. I like the models, the realistic bodies, gorgeous graphics, and real designer clothes and jewelry, but the price of everything although realistic is outrageous compared to the tiny rewards you get for playing. You can never afford the expensive items that cost $20,000 when you already have to spend thousands to wear the clothes and only get to wear them 5 times. The rewards are too small. $250 when i spent over $10K to even enter a contest? Why even play or wear anything expensive? It’s nearly impossible to ever get enough money to wear all the awesome fashions. My recommendation to get more people to play, give bigger heftier prizes as people move up levels. I’ve gone from newbie to a top stylist and it has earned me nothing. I’d rather be at the bottom leagues because you don’t have to spend as much to get ranked. I used to log on every day and couldn’t wait to style new fashions. Now, i log on only to get my daily rewards and rank people to earn credits. Even exclusive events are so blah now. I pick and choose if there’s anything worth it to win, but when you only get to use the stuff a few times, i know have to decide do i really want it or am i just bored, because there are better things to spend my money on.

Love this game, here are some suggestions!

I absolutely love this game, the realism behind it, how you use real garments from real clothing brands, and even real models. I love how you connect the garments with each collection of the season. I myself am an upcoming fashion designer and this is great styling practice for me. I’ve been playing this game for years and have seen the different phases and updates. Some things I would like to suggest is that 1. There should be free play(free styling). I think it’ll be great if we got the opportunity to create our own looks outside of the challenges just for extra practice. 2. You should most definitely include a zoom feature, it can be really hard to see the details of the outfits from a far distance especially for someone who wears glasses like me. We should be able to zoom freely throughout the entire styling. And 3. You should add an actual search bar so we can search the exact type of garment we’re looking for, also you should add back the favorites list so if we come across something we love but can’t buy at the moment we can save it and go back to it whenever we’re ready to buy it! Other than that’s it’s great, I’ll come back and update if I find anything else I think should be included ❤️

Don’t play it’s pure garbage

This used to be the best fashion game in the App Store. It used to be fun, but now the app developers have decided to force everybody to spend money by changing all the rules of the game. And now it’s full of bugs ever since the last update. It awards points, but then doesn’t put them into your account. It invites you to participate in races and then gives you no idea of the results. It used to be that for every five designs and then every 10 designs that you rated, you would get rewards. Now you have to rate up to 50 to 60 designs just to get the same reward. I even tried switching the game to my phone, but for some reason it can’t keep track of me by my Apple ID or anything else and so I had to start all over and then after I did all my designs I couldn’t even access the scores to see what I earned. No points can be collected. Where are you going, stink And when you contact support, nobody ever gets back to you with any sort of support because they just don’t care. This was a really fun game but now it’s just junk. I used to look forward to playing it every day and now I don’t want to go anywhere near it because it just stresses me out because it’s a broken piece of junk with a bunch of greedy app developers who decided they needed to make more money so they ruined their own game.

Just more disappointments with each update

This new version is better in a few good ways. Mostly have still missed the old app though. I Have liked that you can reenter challenges and that you earn rewards every few hours. But a majority of this new app is a down grade. Searching for items is much more difficult, you don’t get to own items if you buy it once. Now there is a five use limit to an item. Even though you get a free location most challenges require that you buy a location. This is an update to my review regarding the most recent update. Absolutely ridiculous that the already limited closet on this new DREST app is now becoming more limited. Seems like a quarter of all items are now items you have to “unlock” by purchasing with diamonds. So his are items that have already been in the game since this new app has come out. It makes no sense to now take away loved items that were easily available to ALL only to change it for another way to make more money off it’s players. I was really looking forward to this “new and improved” DREST. However, with each update I just become more disappointed. This game used to be really cool and fun to be creative using real fashion items.

Fair warning

One star for crazy unfair practices. At first I loved this game - beautiful graphics, 10 different models from ten different nationalities, brand name recognition and a reward system that helped you move forward but didn’t remove the challenge from the game. I reached top tier Platinum status a while back and was receiving 8,000 DREST dollars for the daily goal, 2,000 dd for free money in a twelve hour cycle and several times a day pop up competitions where you could win 10,000 if you placed first and 5,000 if you placed second. First I noticed a reduction in the competition rewards, from 10,000 to 5,000 for first place. Then a reduction of the daily goal reward from 8,000 to 4,000 - which is less than I made when lowest tier. The daily 12 hour free money has been reduced to 500 dd from 2,000. I had been buying the bi-weekly passes which has event rewards and items but I’m so mad about this sudden and extreme reduction I skipped it this go round and I haven’t made up my mind if I will buy them again, probably if I see a sudden increase in rewards the way I saw a sudden decrease. I sent several messages to support and each has been ignored though they were prompt to reply in the past for technical issues.
