Community Insight:
We think we're in love with this game.. After we got to level 3 it slowed down a bit(just waiting for $) but we kinda like coming back to more. With paying the $15 you get a lot more $ and resources. We think it's worth it. Interesting twist on HP. Would recommend.
We really love this game. Ive been playing it for awhile and its our go to game to pass time. Its very cute and there arent any crazy forced ads, only optional ones. Great game! Yall did really good.
It is an interesting premise and easy to play. However it has been randomly closing after some time, and our phone over heats sometimes while using it.
Its been fun, but Im not getting anywhere near how much earnings as it says we should on the Academy Management Data page. We used a stopwatch to time it and we didnt even get half of what it says we should in a minute. It feels like Ive wasted our time playing and upgrading things when Im not actually getting the earnings it says. Very disappointing. We tried to reach out to support, but we got an error every time we tried to submit a contact form on the dev website.
Its fun and goes at a good pace. It actually rewards you too and makes progressing through the game not such a chore like other games.
Us encanta tiene diseos bsico pero su jugabilidad es buena los anuncios son controlado us encanta eso us encanta mucho mucho.
We have it on multiple devices and itis so good at passing time and its simple and easy and very cute.
We write to let you know Im recommending this game.
Ive been playing this game for over a year and we thoroughly enjoy this game. However, we see where things could improve: Make the events last 4-5 days instead of 3days. Allow us to upgrade the mana fruit to more than 25 max, or at least allow us to exchange the holy water for mana fruit. Make obtaining soul gems more accessible or allow us to exchange holy water for them as well. As we increase in combat power, make the item drops or event item drops/giveaways BETTER (like equal to combat level). We love how we never had to PAY our own money to grow within the gameplay and we were able to effectively/efficiently obtain a High combat power without spending any money. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME! Combat power: 452,803 Codename: Ravenous.
Totally worth the download and is really addicting.
We feel like this game is relaxing and we like the idea of the game.
Great games. Fun and easy. Have to wait for the money to add up but it is with it.
Loved playing this game, the animations are great, and the ability to play without ads was fantastic. Unfortunately once you max out all the different areas, the game is done. Would be nice if there was a way to start over,.
Ive been playing for a while. When we first got it we bought the remove ads feature which greatly improved our experience. However, Ive had everything maxed out for months now, and there has not been any new content. We see that every few weeks they release a patch to fix bugs, but there is no news whether anything new is coming or not. We are worried the game may be dead at this point.
Very casual play, waiting does help in the game.
Its a fun game but weve been waiting for the new level for quite a while and seems developer is only interested in doing slight bug fixes anymore. Sad to have to let this one go.
Okay so Ive been enjoying this game a lot so far. However Ive noticed something very concerning. This seems like a direct copy of Harry Potter. All the classes, monsters, even all the contents of the vending machines are literally from the Harry Potter universe. We hope you developers got the rights, otherwise yikes.
The gameplay, storyline, and animation is fun and for the most part well done. However, the insane amount of ads (while not compulsory) makes us want to uninstall.
The game is fun and we enjoy the playing but it reaches a point at school 3 where upgrading anything becomes a drag. It will take you days and days to earn enough to upgrade one level. Previous levels werent as bad. It gets disheartening to get tons of money and see we have nothing we can afford after so many days.
Fun game but the $$ valuations are crazy. 184T for a 2nd bed in the second dorm. One of the teacher hires is 180g. For a game that is 4+ you can do better. We actually stopped playing when we noticed there was an update.
Too many videos to watch to receive anything.
We really like the game but everything you hit on pulled you into an ad. We stop playing because there are so many ads. If they dont ease up Im gonna delete the game.
We think this games is fun and a great time killer. Purchasing the no ads is worth it. We only wish we could communicate with other players while playing game with an in game chat but otherwise love this game.
We love the game it's do fun it's have no adds we have been trying to find a fun game that has no adds a we finally found one we think you should get the game it amazing.
We tried reaching out on the developer website but the contact us submission results in a 500 error. We want to know when the shadow isles will be released.
Promises of coming soon; however, nothing new has happened since they put the two timed events into the program. Was fun but fun is about done.
The game is fun and we paid to remove the ads. But we are not getting rewards correctly and thats cause frustrating game play. We cant advance if the rewards are not being applied. Are there any new updates? The events are the same each week.
Fun but crashes every hour or two.
The game is perfectly fine , Im just not able to save our game progress storage.
Love this game, have been playing it for a while, spent money on it more than once. Its a great concept (if not a blatant use of poorly veiled Harry Potter references and likenesses). But as a Harry Potter fan we find that fun. We wish the developers would give an ETA for the release of Shadow Isles. Its been coming soon for months and Ive beat everything else so Im about ready to give up playing if more new content doesnt come soon.
The game is all about you updating the classrooms and what not but nothing that makes us feel like it is worth the work of updating and upgrading nor does it show what is the purpose of the school outside of making money from the tuition. Takes too long to upgrade as the costs get ridiculously high.
Love these types of games and was trying to play alongside our partner, but our game refuses to allow us to back up and save and we've not been able to get around that issue. We even clicked the app store "get support" button but never heard back.
Cant find how to dismantle wands. Says storage is fun need to go there how.
Fun game thanks for allowing a person to actually play the game without clicking on an ad every 2 seconds.
We love this game but anyone can tell its a cheap copy of Harry Potter. We think thats why we like it, because its secretly a Harry Potter game.
Really fun game, no intrusive ads would recommend if youre looking for that next game to play in bed lol.
Great and easy gameplay wish there was customization options and character creation of some sort but overall pretty good.
We have done everything in this game, we wish something would change or a new map would open up. Im getting first place in the Wizard Tower, and the Magic Carnival. Ive completed the magical pets, and Im starting to get bored. We want something else to do so Im giving 4/5 stars and begging for something to be added or the last map to be open.
Ive been enjoying this game a lot, its cute and a great time killer, and the ad removal purchase was 100% worth it. However, devs, please please please lower upgrade costs in late game maps. We get that you guys are trying to retain players by increasing cost for upgrades to add difficulty to it, but its a bit excessive and we feel like others would agree.
We love the game. Its well made and just overall fun. The issue we have is, the third location/map has been a serious grind. We know its an idle game but the first two levels went at a reasonable pace. Im still gonna play but it makes the game a chore.
We like this game but when will we get more characters and levels.
The game is actually fun. Ads only when you want extra boosts or items and such. Only issues are that no matter what we try it will not let us sign in or create an account so you have to play as a guest. Also theres a lot of stuff from HP in it but its not a HP game sooo not sure how long itll be up.
Cool game but constant and long ads! Ugh.
Its fun, but can get annoyingly tedious when you have to watch tons and tons of ads just to increase your income in order to upgrade stuff. Not sure how long Ill play it.
The best thing about this game is that they dont force you to watch ads. If you CHOOSE to watch ads the rewards you get for doing so feel worth it. Also, the appearance of familiar characters such as Akasha is pretty neat. However, this game becomes a really slow slog through the mud really quickly. We even put forth the effort to reach FIRST PLACE in an event, but the rewards for doing so were basically non existent. We didnt even get extra gold. All we really got out of it were a bunch of pieces that are meant to unlock a magical pet. However, you need 100 pieces to unlock the pet, and we didnt even get half of that. Therefore, all of our efforts were for nothing. We think im done with this game now. Ive reached a point where im not getting anything out of it.
Love this game, but way to many add watching! Takes the fun out of it.
A lot of the game doesnt work and thread bonuses are loaded with spyware. Dont bother with the dorms or buying the offline manager. Ad rewards may or may not be given.
Its casual and relaxing but we have everything leveled up and maxed out so theres nothing to actually do. The game says new levels are pending but in the meantime what? Gear cant be upgraded or combined, no cosmetics, there is nothing to keep bringing us back.
Cannot log into apple to save game.
Been playing the game for about 2 months and ive been #1 in the floors for about a month now still waiting for someone to pass us.
