Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Played archero 1 a couple of years ago and enjoyed ourselves. But now playing archero 2 is an absolute blast. Glad to see the game allowing a ftp version for those who dont want to ptw. Great job to the team. Thank you.
We dont normally like iOS games however this game is the exception. Its really fun and you dont have to spend money to have a great time.
Relaxing and fun, works well and isnt glitchy. Keep it up.
This game is the best thank you for making this game.
We would like a button in some sort of settings so that we could automatically collect anything free without constantly clicking and if it was pay for or have to watch an ad it would ignore.
Good time we start with lots of little side, quest content type stuff. Can get a little grinding if you dont pay some money but minimal investment can have you up and running pretty quickly on a steady progression.
To all who are mad either because they cant get past a certain level in Sky Tower or they think this game just plain stinks so you all give it one star, please understand that you are clearly unable to have fun. Its a common brain malfunction whereas you take upon yourself the burdens of the world in real time, and when you come to the World of Archero, you drag with you those burdens and decide that they also exist in this game. They dont. Its a common disease known as the Pity us Syndrome. Look it up, it exists.ill wait Ok did you see the definition? Wait, you actually went and looked it up? Oh our Lord! Im going to puke with laughter! This game is awesome. Some of the boards are, in fact, harder than other boards. We have a hard time defeating some of them ourselves because Im simply not as good as other players. Its not because they made the game too hard. Its because you arent very good at Archero. If a challenge stands before you, either conquer it or dont, but dont bad mouth a thing just because you cant jump the hurdle. And to those who think this game stinks, as Louis CK put it, your life stinks around the game. Learn to have some fun. This game is colorful, at times difficult, and has enough game modes to keep you invested for well over an hour before you run out of things to do which is good considering we have an obesity epidemic in this country. So either enjoy the game, or make your own better game. Archero team, you are killing it! Keep up the good work.
Fun game. Im not normally into these kind of games but its been a blast. Habby (the creator) is also really good at helping out. Definitely a must have game.
Very recommended game it has element combining and etc also if ur seeing this (combine electeic rings and then big arrows then light arrows).
It has so much replayability! We dont feel like the gameplay ever gets stale. Overall, its a 10/10 game for us. We recommend this to everyone who comes across it.
Been playing for a while! Fun game to waste some time on the bus or the toilet. Dont waste money on buying gems, but it is worth buying ad free if you have a good time with it.
Best game Ive played this year.
Our boyfriend and we play this game constantly. Its so freaking fun. We havent found an app game like this in forever!! No Ads is awesome. Just overall so fun and Im so happy with it. Thank you to the developers that created this game, its seriously so fun.
Great game we love that theres no ads unless you want to revive or get something for free and its very fun.
The addition of plants makes the game quite nearly impossible to enjoy if you were a player before the abomination. They are a useless rehash of the sprites that coincidentally summon sprites. They muddy the players field of vision making it more difficult to see oncoming attacks while you stomach the fact that the addition of the invasive species diluted the draw pool of skills making 99% sure you wont achieve a skill build you want within a specific campaign. R.we.P. Them out by the roots. Whosever idea they were should be exiled from game play collaborations. If youre a new player and they still have them in the build, RUN. RUN the other way they game will do nothing but frustrate you and leave you feeling as if nothing will ever fill the void resulting when your heart shrivels into a singularity of despair knowing you missed playing a great game before it was destroyed by ridiculous additions and poor execution of beta testing feedback. How else could a colossal boner of this magnitude infect a once great game. Shameful. Simply shameful.
This is a good game but to get serious youll have to pay. We would recommend getting rid of the ads and getting daily gems, it will make the experience much more fun.
Way better than the first one. Better graphics, cooler mechanics, and more fun abilities.
We have had adhd for almost 8 years and have a hard time focusing on one game but with this game its different. The new events every couple of weeks and easy daily challenges give players a goal each day and keep you entertained, overall a great game.
This is an absolutely fabulous game. However, the impossible to close ads with hidden x windows is quite slimy and frustrating.
Ive played the original arch hero for some time now and felt we were living under a rock and just put about 20 hours into Archhero 2. This game is unique because it does feel you can progress as a free to play player and they offer endless supplies for gems, passive hunts for xp and gear, and offer quite the diversity of gameplay with different events, challenges, even interacting with other players. Where we could see improvements (this is just our experience), it feels very RNG dependent. The attack upgrades for example seem to offer the smallest of damage increases where youll hit a legendary roll, a 4x damage increase, and the next wave you seem to be doing maybe 50-80 more damage per hit (which is nothing). The boss scaling is brutal in our experience as well. Youll be in the fight for a while due to damage increases not scaling and put into an almost dark souls feel where itll take them 2 shots to kill you but you need to survive for 3-4 minutes through the fight till you kill them making it frustrating to advance in the game. Id love to see a balance check to make damage boosts equivalent to the spirits, they seem to out damage a primary, jeweled up weapon everytime regardless of damage buffs. This is more in-depth and after extended play. It was hard putting 3 stars as we do enjoy the game but would love to see them slow down ironically.
Love the game but hate how we have to have energy to play one thing, a ticket to play another, a different ticket for a different mode, shovels for another mode. And its usually only 1-2 tickets or whatever a day so sometimes you cant even play certain modes more than 3 times a day.
The game starts out fun, but after a while its safe to say they want you to spend money to keep up. And some mechanics dont make sense. Like being given abilities that clearly dont make sense for boss battles.
We used to be an Archero fan, but the over saturated events are are rng casinos to eat away at attention spans and keep you involved as much as possible. Everytime we log in we get bombarded by $100 deals. The ads and constant pop up ways to spend gems is exhausting. Whatever happened to just making a good game. Happily deleting this game for good since we reached the pay to play ceiling. Good luck Archero.
This game is fun for a few minutes, but eventually you hit the wall of repetition and realize that you have to pay money if you want to minutely speed up your character progression. Like, $100 gets you 14K gems, which only opens 40 mythic chests. Lol. If you dont pay any money, itll take you years to get anywhere with your character. They should drop all of their shop prices by 70-80%.
Love the game but the ads are fake and is not the gameplay at all.
No adds better graphics than 1st we cant even put it into words of how better this game is than every rip-off of survivor.io and the whole game combined best experience and gameplay in the whole world love your game.
We really wanted to hate this game based on the ads but its actually really good we've been playing it all day we recommend also it has no ads shockingly.
Im always pleasantly surprised by developers who pour their love and devotion into their work to create something that people around the world can enjoy without having ads crammed down their throats. When we find a quality mobile game thats fun and addicting, looks, feels, and plays superbly, AND the devs dont jam ads down our hatch it makes us WANT TO support them and make in-app purchases! This game is awesome, and you can really tell that the developers care about their community THANK YOU! Its such a bummer when you find an app thats so addicting that the developers steal all the time they can from you by thrusting ads into your soul because they know they have something you want. That isnt fun for anyone, and we actually just delete those games right away, but THESE devs have it right! Thank you for sharing your cool fun game and making it accessible for everyone.
It was the best experience ever.
Excellent game. Played 1, 2 is better.
We still play the first archhero but this one is definitely a step up. We wanna say and Im excited for anything that will come in the future.
We played this game a couple times a day theres not a lot of ads and thats why we love this game.
Game is fun and gives lots of varieties to play. It is also good even if you dont want to pay to win.
Really fun it keeps you engaged and its challenging and so far not one ad and Ive been playing for 2-3 days.
Put the melee sprite in front of the hero.
Game is fun to play and devs give plenty gems without needing to pay.
We shouldnt be wasting our life playing this.
The game is great, although they did get rid of our favorite item from the original Archero the sword, but overall still great.
Its a great game perfect for bad or even no internet the gameplay is magnificent and the idea and upgrades are pretty good the only down side is clicking through ads but it doesnt happen very much so overall definitely 5 stars.
Just to pass time for hours upon hours of fun.
Not really a five-star game, but Im rewarding the devs for making it simpler and more fun than Archero 1. We ruled in that game but it got more and more convoluted and tedious. We can play this one without feeling like its a full time job.
This game is very fun, it starts out slow but once you start to get S gear and join a guild you play everyday. All the gamepasses and paywalls is kinda annoying though.
This games art is better than the first lots of features are more compact so not as much clutter any more our only regret is not being able to keep our heroes from the first game even tho we link our email.
We've played a lot of mobile games and almost all of them have obnoxious, intrusive monetization strategies. The best of them only bug you once a day… Until Archero 2! You can play this game indefinitely and NEVER have to look at an add for FREE. There are options to spend money, and there are options to watch ads and yes they're prominent but NONE of them are on the home screen, and NONE of them are required for fun or progress. Better yet, when we did end up spending $10 on their lowest tier it was a one time payment that did exactly what was advertised, unlocking "video ad" rewards without watching videos each time. This is exactly how it should be done. We play every day, because it's fun gameplay with advertising that stays out of the way and we know if we choose to spend money, we're getting what we're paying for and there's no misleading purchases for "ad free" that still tries to show us ads for further benefits. If this is the future of this franchise, we can't wait for Archero 3.
This game is amazing and we love the raritys when ever you want an abilitys its not too conmen or rare and also the raritys make that game so much more fun that we are addicted to this game.
Way better then Archero 1 in every way. PvP, better weapons, more f2p friendly, better art style, fun events, and less over complicated then the og game. If you want a mobile game to play when your bored, get this one.
The only problem is you have to buy things to get better and its expensive.
Its rare these days that a game is as good as its add. This game isnt just that good; its better! In addition to the main game, there are multiple side games to play. You never run out of things to do.
Best game we have played in a long time. No need to pay if you don't want to. No need to watch endless videos. Would recommend anyone playing this game. Thank you for an excellent game.
