Few month review
Wed Dec 21 2022 Narwhals Are LifeI’ve been playing this game consistently for a few months now. I didn’t put any money into the game until two months in for a battlepass-esq thing. I was able to, and continue to progress, with no money added. I actually have a bunch of their in game currency (around a hundred+ dollars worth) just from doing daily’s regularly. That’s all to say that this game is a fun, idle type game that has little to no pay-to-win aspect within itself. It’s very entertaining and has a lot of progression. I’m getting close to endgame gameplay so I wish there were a few more things to do but their new additions with mini-games and such are a breath of fresh air. Overall, I’d give it a 5/5. The combat is satisfying, the progression is consistent, and overall it’s rather fun with a few layers of complexity. If this is read by the developers, I’d really like for the addition of some sort of clan/group that you can create and do events with so that me and my friends could play together.
A bit lackluster with some disturbing legal obligations
Tue Feb 21 2023 MemnarcStarting with the good, the graphics are pleasant and easy to look at for extended periods, the tutorial is actually useful, and you can technically play without paying anything. Now for the reality. The game is riddled with voluntary ads and when going to your arena, there’s piles of pop ups about all the different things you can buy. The game IN NO WAY IN ANY UNIVERSE IS WHAT YOU SEE ADVERTISED. Listen up well devs, advertising one product and providing a different one is not a particularly good idea. There’s also no logic to the combat. I fought a single beast while having 1000 more combat power and all my gladiators died. But moving to the second to last issue, if there is any issue with the game that requires legal action, you are forced into arbitration instead of being able to peruse the proper legal process. So rest assured that if the devs do something scuzzy or illegal, there’s no recourse except for an expensive private one that will favor the devs. Finally, you apparently own the rights to “user content” but cannot use it for anything and the devs can use it for everything. The game is functional, so it gets 3 stars, but it’s simply not what’s advertised and becomes very boring very quickly.
I found a bug
Thu Apr 21 2022 GamingDragon1738When I started the game I did some of the tutorial and got to where I had to recruit another gladiator but I closed the game and opened again but I didn’t start where I left off but instead it said that there was now something I can click on to do the main missions but there was nothing there and I couldn’t click on the menus well not exactly It did work but only once a while but it didn’t even matter tho cuz I couldn’t click anything in the different menus I tried to delete the data to restart the game and also use the repair thing in the loading screen and nothing worked if u find some way to fix let me know so I can try the game cuz it seems fun
Updated review
Tue Aug 02 2022 breaghdWell they responded in a reasonable amount of time for a game breaking bug so kudos for that but an in-game mail could have saved weeks of frustration. All in all, it’s a really fun game for being an “idle” game. It’s always fun watching your gladiators actively fight (even with their questionable ai). The progression seems nicely paced so far. There are some times where you fall behind and have trouble progressing but it’s never stopped me for more than a day or two. It’s pretty ftp friendly so far. The ads are for double rewards and reviving gladiators if wanted. At no point are you ever forced forced to watch an ad. There’s no energy system. It’s a really good game and the only thing keeping me from giving it a perfect score are a collection of fairly small gripes. With a few small improvements here and there this would easily be a five star game. I absolutely recommend this game. Give it a shot.
Great game but many bugs
Sat May 14 2022 JcsmRsngThe game and idea of the game is great. But this game has too many bugs. I would love to continue playing but the continuous lost of data. Also not being able to collect certain items from the arena shop after I have purchased it and diamond shop. Most of the time it goes through and then it bugs and I lose out on the item. I have lost multiple gladiators when switching them out on the training manager. When adding numerous gladiators some times it bugs out and I lose the gladiators. I have tried closing the app and see if the gladiator is in my roster but they are not. These are a few examples of the bugs. I would love to continue playing the game. But it is very frustrating losing items and gladiators. If the bugs are fixed I will continue playing the game. I have used money on the game. Which I have used the diamonds to purchase items in game. And have lost those items. Which is a list of money to me.
Dislike the greedy vibes
Sun Sep 04 2022 Rj122192I think the game is cool and is definitely a good time passer , but two things that are extremely grueling in this game and that is the greedyness of the in app purchases and the fact that we have to buy a specific number of ad skips instead of there being a one time charge every month for free skips … now I’m super glad that I’m able to get a lot of stuff by watching ads but there needs to be a better system to skip them and also a change in how long the ads are … I shouldn’t have to wait 30-40 seconds for the ad to finish plus another 15 seconds for it to load the X sign … that’s literally a whole minute just for ads that’s craziness . Please fix the ad system to be a little more efficient and I would have no issue with this game 💯💯💯💯🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Great update but some issues
Mon Aug 15 2022 darkoq8Fantastic work am so happy with the update honestly and I would like to start by thanking you guys. Some problems though, for expeditions I have been forced to do super difficulty twice and I do not have the necessary power am trying to choose lower difficulty but I am unable to even before joining it. Second thing is am using a maxed gorefiend and maxed minuator on stage 190-5 and though i pass them in cp alot my heroes get one or two shoted and that means there must be a balancing issue on this stage because though I pass this stage power with huge gap i get killed in a second, that is all keep up the good work and thank you. Edit: 1 star because expeditions i can not do lower difficulty and on this difficulty my heroes cp are far better but they get one shoted that is frustrating and it means the numbers of cp are wrong I hope you balance it and even in story mode the same happens specially with heroes gladiators are fine
Ads not loading
Mon Jan 09 2023 Rsmitty#3I’ve played this game continuously for about a month. Probably played it way more than my wife would like. I enjoy all the components of the game except the ads. While you do not have to watch the ads, they are very beneficial to advance faster in the game. The ads would not load almost every time I really needed them too. For example, reviving a new gladiator that I spent a lot of time trying to get and when trying to double the rewards from arenas or hunts. I also did not receive the final award for the 7 Day Carnival even though I completed it in time. It’s very frustrating to spend a lot of time working for something, only to lose it to a bug issue. This game could easily have been a 5 star and something I would have spent real money on.
