Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We were on deaths door due to boredom. Everything was starting to fade to black. We almost left this world. ENTER Heroes! Oooweeee let us tell you. Im playin this for the next bit.
A game you can play as long as you want.
Simple and fun hours of entertainment.
Its simple, but fun, and a good time killer. But the amount of ads to repair rings or heal your heroes is too much. Otherwise this would be a 5-star.
It is an easy game to learn and play.
First 15 minutes of game. It is easy and quick.
It's an easy game to start and not very complicated. It's exactly what we were looking for.
A little monotonous but fun if you are a completionist in RPGs.
Would be great if we wasn't asked to watch an add every minute or so.
Game is fun but to many ads pop up.
The ads are annoying but we guess it helps pay for the game. Fun game to play.
Like others have mentioned, the ads get annoying quickly. Finish a dungeon? Ad. Ring breaks (very frequently)? Ad. Run out of health? Ad. The ads really cut into the pace and fun of the game. We know they're a necessity, but increasing uses on the rings or giving a gold repair option would help alleviate a fair portion of the ad spam and allow the game to flow a bit more smoothly while retaining the advertiser bonuses for the game developer. Trim ads down, and it's a 4 star. Trim ads and balance out the gold and food production a bit, plus clean up a bit of the building clutter and placement, and it's 5 star plus.
It's a good game, but the reason we're giving three stars is that the rings, which are the only equipable items you can find on dungeons, can only be repaired with either gems or by watching ads. We really, really dislike having to watch ads every few fights because our rings break. It slows the game down unnecessarily. The other option is to pay gems, the premium currency if this game. Considering how often rings break, that is not a very fair deal. If they can fix this, either by allowing you to repair with gold or giving much higher durability to rings, this would easily be a 5 star game for us.
Characters are funny and game is fun but don't like watching the ads to revive them. And equitable items can only be restore by watching videos but as you lvl up only gems are the only means of restoring them. We know they're out to make money but this is ridiculous. And paying for the premium building is worth 1 gem a day… Lol. Crazy.
Ok so we downloaded this game, but we cant open it, its like it downloaded but its not opening. We need help?! Can you help.
Fun and intuitive combat, great art style. Tons of fun.
It's a very different kind of game. We thought it would be difficult but boy was we wrong. So far the price of the in-game items isn't RIDICULOUS like most other games…($ 4.99 for 100 gems or gold bars…byte us…LOL) Hope you all enjoy it as much as we have.
This game is kinda fun with the dungeons.
Fun game. Simple and addictive. Loving it so far.
A little more depth and being able to upgrade building maybe would be nice, but overall it's a fun game. Material production is quick enough that you don't have to worry about a lot if down time and you have enough hold starting to help build producing buildings.
The only thing missing is a little more depth, we suppose that is the right word. Fair gains even before you make the purchase to remove adds, and the premium stuff is priced very fair.
We were really enjoying this game except that the touch controls aren't sensitive enough, which is bad for a game where your attacks and defense are based on timed touch. We just got too frustrated that we deleted the game even after playing it steadily for about a month. Sad.
Loved this game. Cures boredom easily and just fun. We hope they add more stuff to it.(new levels, etc.) because we have done everything.
This game is such great fun for all ages from 7 all the way to 50 love it.
Great game even without spending money on it.
It's fun but whomever created this was too desperate for money. You can't do anything because they want you to use gems that cost real money. The game isn't that great that we'll charge a credit card. No way man no way.
This game is addictive. Our only complaint is that gems are too hard to earn (we're not going to purchase them!) so you can't purchase some of the buildings or heroes because there is no way to earn enough gems. Otherwise, it is awesome.
We didn't think we would enjoy this game as much as we have. Between this and Jurassic park builder, we have all day gaming.
We love this games It's funny the people are funny in the game.
Very fun so far, and we haven't encountered any bugs yet.
Loving the game. We ran into an issue though. Build times just reset when they reach zero. Causing nothing to be built and no progression. This seemed to be caused by certain public firewalls.
We really like this quirky game. We're not getting our gems from tapjoy.
It takes a lot of food to level up the warriors, but its a fun game for a quick time killer.
It really awesome but it's annoying how if you find a new character it might be lots of diamonds like it might be 200 diamonds or 50 so it's like expecting you to get free diamonds and we don't like that because to get free diamonds you have get a credit card that you might already have like the discover card you get about 1713 diamonds and we're tempted to get it.
We love this game.the only reason we didn't give it a 5 star is because it takes so many gems for some things and u don't earn many at a time in the game.we have gone into free gems and gotten some that way. We wish they would reward more or charge less for the items that require them.
Very entertaining once u get the hang of it.
It's a nice game, we like that they give you ways to earn gems.
It does have a few problems. The game crashes a lot initially and we have to relaunch it. Also, anything we put in the foreground covers up our houses to the point of us having to hunt and peck for the one spot that selects the building. This is also the case of people who talk to you. Additionally, the game assumes we want a ring if we have an empty ring slot and won't let us just sell them if we think they are junk. Once you get past those issues, the game is fun and addicting. Hopefully, future updates fix these issues.
If it didn't product push and advertise all the time and that the game is at a snail pace unless you use money.
It's a luvly amusing game….we like it so much.
This game is pritty sweet a little time taking but still fun.
It.was slow at first because we didn't know how to play. But now we are addicted.
It's pretty fun to mess around with, would definitely recommend to our friends.
It's totally fun and addictive! The graphics, characters, quests, uncomplicated ease of play make this game a great way to pass the time.
At first, we were all like "Ehhhhh…" But within ten minutes, we're all like " Hell Yeah!!!" Now we can't seem to put the game down.
Definitely should check this game out, it's an awesome game and its free.
One of the more fun freebies we've played in a while.
It's a great game :) fun and kills time.
Great use of simple mechanics and a fun art style. Fun game with good humor.
