Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Please download this game. Its a really good game.
Im from Saudi Arabia we tried everything thing to play the game in the last 3 weeks we downloaded it 4 times and the game still not working our phone is iPhone 14 pro max.
Ive been playing since the game released (which obviously isnt long) and im currently lvl 68. And we must admit the game is pretty fun! Albeit boring. But all turn based games are lets be honest. The character designs are great! Theyre for gooners, obviously, but who really cares. Its relatively easy to prgress, a small grind, but not impossible. Our only complaint is how tedious it is to level characters, and build them. The only way to get recourses is with the stamina currency, and once you run out, you just have to wait a few hours to keep going. We dont have much issues when it comes to getting wishing currency, or link permits. It hasnt bothered us yet, and ive managed to get the characters we really want. So, If anyones reading this the game is worth playing imo. If you like relaxing gameplay, not having to do to much, nice rewards, definitely download this.
Fix summoning animations because mines keeps freezing and we have to restart the game.
Please fix the game, we enjoy it and we have good people we pulled from using tickets. We cant play the game much due to how laggy it is and we cant even load into a campaign without the game crashing, please fix the game so we can enjoy it even more without having to reopen the game 4-6 times just to do 1 campaign level.
Hello its strawberry we just wanted to tell you we also got dawn before Alice so can u update the bugs bc we dont got dawn in our characters and can u also refund our pulls then it was on beginner draws.
Its another auto battler anime game with nothing else to offer. Will be gone and forgotten as soon as the next one comes out.
We havent been able to play cause of there a Single hiccup in the game start progress it will infinity go to a error screen.
Needs more way to collect resources for draw tickets. Stingy on stamina as well with how much it costs to do anything. Good potential but not worth it right now.
It doesnt save any data whatsoever, and it logs us out and failed connection issues, but game is fun! , and it also resets level every time.
Ive played since release and we got to say its a pretty nice game, character are cool, game play is similar to some other games, so it feels nice. We havent had any issues since release.
Love the game mechanics and the character Designs. There is allot of potential for this game to grow into something big. We already not only invested some time playing but also strategize to proceed farther. This is a very good opportunity to support the game as it just released and be part of a community to grow. There are graphical lag issues when playing on maxed settings on iPhone 16 Pro but we believe they will work in a fix for smoother transition. Anyone can Friend us on there. Linker Name: XECUTION.
The game is fun the waifus are amazing and we cant stop playing.
Love the game so far just started playing this afternoon but so far its fun in our book love these types of games.
This game is so perfect that we are genuinely speechless.
Is the game not fully out or what since we can get in it but it says under maintenance.
We downloaded the game after seeing an ad on TikTok, the character designs are awesome, and theres a lot of f2p content when you first start. The animations for the game are a little choppy but we dont expect much since the game just released. Theres a lot of similarities to Honkai Impact 3rd, the UI is basically the same, but its easy to navigate. The music is decent as well, along with the storyline. Id say this is an alternative for Honkai Impact 3rd if you dont have the storage for the original game. Hopefully in the future the animations can be improved, everything is still a bit choppy. Its overall a good game.
The beginning relink is bugged shows alot more SSR an SR but still just like other gachas.
We would give it a three star but one more star cause we LOVEEE 3d characters.
How this is it phone game we dont have enough space for that. Listen this looks like a good game. We wanna download it but the thing is it has it takes up way too much space we couldnt even download it. It would just make you delete all your games. Everything that you ever had on the phone do not download.
Had an issue downloading but all good now. Will check back after playing.
We use furasoke on every game and all games we ever played, apparently FUR is inappropriate for the game other than that game seems ok.
The game is not like the ads make it appear. The combat is tedious and dull. The characters have little variation and theres so much reading to advance the story that you just wind up skipping it so you can jump into the slightly less boring combat. And for the goons out there: its rated 12+. NONE of those ads apply, theyre just the hook to get you in.
The anime style and art works are great, but how come it will disconnected from the server whenever you lock the screen? And also a little bit pay to win feeling.
Im trying to upgrade our ssr character but the game keeps crashing.
We downloaded the game after it launched, we were excited to play this game until we realized the loading went up by 0.01 every 1-2 seconds. We didnt think much about it until a few minutes until it just became stuck. We exited the game and clicked the Fix button, but it wouldnt go past 10.00%.
This game is pretty average. Graphics are okay, gameplay is pretty standard idle combat that lets you control supers, regular resource stages, etc. There are, however, some HUGE flaws that keep this from being a good game, most notably the absolutely horrendous stamina shortage. Pros: – Simple to learn. Basic idle combat lets you just play idle most of the time. – Fairly generous with summons, plus an infinite reroll. Although this is somewhat offset by the fact that the infinite reroll banner only lets you pick from one of three SSRs. – SSR selector as the 7 day log in bonus. Cons – Stamina is a major issue, and we cant stress this enough. To say this is a problem is an understatement. You have a max of 300, and only gain 30 when you level up. Longer than average recharge at one per six minutes. The main thing though: resource stages cost an ungodly amount. They start at 18, but the cost increases as the difficulty rises. Im not sure if Im at the hardest difficulty, but it costs a whopping SIXTY stamina to do one run. A single run takes literally SIX HOURS to recharge. – The rewards for said resource stages are pitiful, so you need to spend hundreds upon hundreds of stamina to raise a character a few levels. – No skips. You can make it so one run counts for five times, but come on. Why not just have skips for resource stages in a game like this? – Did we mention the stamina? Overall the game is okay, but geez, they have to do something about the stamina shortage. Im making more progress in regular idle games that level gate you. We cant see ourselves playing this for too long if it keeps bottlenecking our character growth and story progression.
We spent nearly an hour trying to download all packs and contents of game. Only to uninstall due to Network Error. Was really looking forward to this game.
Overall nothing impressive, animations are basic and in a sea of gacha games this one is easy to forget quickly.
No male characters at all just females no thanks.
