Community Insight:
This is the best game ever we even watch it and we are going to be piccolo for Halloween.
5 stars but huge missed opportunity…SERIOUSLY PLEASE!!! We need a version of this thats fun/competitive with vs mode, so we can play real people!!! You know… Like… EVERY OTHER CARD GAME!!!! Think Pokmon TCG online or even yugiioh TCG app. If you made this it will also bring a ton more interest and players into the physical TCG and create more dragonball fans in general.
Good game but we wana play the full game.
We know its just a tutorial, and itll probably stay like this. But this game is phenomenal at showing what this game could be if it there ever was a an online TCG, Ive replayed the free bot boss battles over a thousand times and fell in love with king Vegetas deck. Im glad to hear fusion world is coming out sometime this year in February, but if this game could get updated and be turned into a full project it would bring in a lot more mobile players who will play fusion world.
When are u going to let get full featured to card game.
Enough data is already in the game that can make the full version be added easily. The full game isnt available for those who want to play and dont have a PC and that isnt very practical. We all wanna play the game after playing the tutorial right? So why not just add the mobile version.
With both Unison Warrior and Zenkai being released, we need a tutorial to show how those are played.
Why is there no full game?!?! This game would be amazing to be able to play if there was a full game.
Was sad that this tutorial doesnt work anymore. Our son was wanting to learn to play and this was the best way to teach him. What a shame.
Pls change the timing rules for the app and pc game. Its dumb that we have one timer for our turns for one game. It gets to the point where either we sit there waiting for it to time out or we dont get full turns. Even worse it can make it where we dont get enough time to combo to save ourselves.
This doesnt do the game justice. Cant wait for the online game to be released worldwide cause this makes the game look complicated and slow.
Its too much remembering how to play not very easy. We thought it was going to be like a WWE Supercard type of game but we were wrong. Its too much work for a mobile game. We understand its trying to make it like the shows and be diffident. Very hard to play here.
This game is so good and has so much potential to make money for Bandai as it is a perfect introduction to the Dragon Ball Super Trading Card Game and is sure to drive a lot of traffic. We learned through the app and it convinced us to buy cards years ago so it is really devastating that the app has not had even a small update.
Hi, we a new player. We wish new content about this game, please.
We wish we could give this 5 stars but is not the full game is so good we need that full game Like please give us the FULL GAME.
Update card database and rules because its so much new stuff out new players wont even know the half of whats going on. Especially with new mechanics. Overall app still helps with the basics.
Come on now this seems like a missed opportunity, jus imagine the money you guys couldve made during the pandemic and who REALLY is going to buy physical cards at this point other than collectors . Nobody is playing this game irl man just gone head and make the a full blown app so we can we have reason to quit Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Links.
Awesome but we think that it is too hard.
We really like it also hopefully the game will come out soon.
Just make it so we can scan our cards and play online.
We wish this was a full game though! We bet people would pay to play if this was a full game with a campaign or PVP game. But so far loving the tutorial. Also can you rework the Broly deck since they limited cold bloodlust to 1 per deck? Also can you update it so that it has the latest Baby trial deck.
This would be an outstanding online card game. Please make this happen a lot of us DBS tcg fans would love an online version of this game!! You already have the gameplay done just make it full fledge! Please we all want this!! Especially for the ones who cant play in any tournaments in real life.
You guys should make it a full actual game. It would bump in a lot of players, and if it would have a gacha system, then it would bring in a lot of cash! Just think about it! Please and thank you.
This app really is a great way to learn how to play the Dragon Ball Super card game, but it could use more decks in the app to use. It would be great to see our favorite deck Android Duality with the Android 21 leader.
With the pandemic shutting so many shops down it was the perfect time for you to release a full app with all the cards. Would have made a killing by now.
Bandai you need to create a mobile trading/online pvp pve Dbs card game. Similar to yugiohs duel links. Missing out big time without it.
Make the full game u can make so much money.
We just started playing DBS TCG and this interactive tutorial was very useful but we wish there was a way you could play against other people online and have a way you could scan the cards you bought and be able to use them in the game.
Okay Bandai!!! Set 9 is almost out. Time to establish an online game now. We think we deserve it.
We really hope Bandai can make a full DBSTCG simulator(not a card or hero summoner please) for mobile. Heres our honest and sincere suggestion to Bandai. An app that is meant to be used in conjunction only with real DBSTCG physical decks would be awesome. For example, we can enter a clean barcode of the deck box into the app and that deck is automatically added to your personal inventory. So, its not another summoner(DBL & Dokkan is all we need), rather an inventory app for real life DBSTCG players with real decks. Being able to sync our physical decks into a mobile app which would allow you to observe your cards in fine high definition quality with the ability to zoom in and out, enhanced card art would definitely be the cherry on top. Having an app that functions this way as just an inventory of your synced decks would be perfectly fine. The option to battle online could also be a very possible feature with a system that is not based off of stars or who has the highest stars, rather a fair real life duel with real life tourney rules and everything to keep it solid. All of this could definitely work and the best part is that you dont have to keep spending money for Simmons, instead you go out and buy your decks and use them online like if it were a real game. Make it happen please bandai.
We like it but it needs to be the full thing we mean whats the point of teaching us about a game but we dont ever get to play it so just a idea.
We know for a whole fact that this game would be 100% better and attract so many more people if you guys make this a full game! Its a good start, now just make it like the Pokmon mobile card game! If you do that, then sit back and watch how many people play the game. If we could guess the amount of people who would play, we would guess around maybe 1 to 5 million people! Please make it a full game! Im begging you.
When you fight any battle is no fun all the opponent does is attack and you can barely attack and its so boring.
Make it a full game and itll be 5 stars.
Why is there no online or to git more cards.
We love the tutorial. We play the card game. But when we heard that this is for tutorials only we got disappointed. It would be way better with editable decks and online play. Please make this happen and we would be glad to give it five stars.
As a tutorial, this app works fine enough. When you actually go to fight Frieza, Broly, and Gogeta, its awful. The base deck they give you in uncustomizable and completely awful. Its filled with high-energy cards, meaning you cant even play them until late game. Friezas deck is so good its not even funny. Within ten turns hes got five cards on the attack side, and each attacks every turn. This means you cant do anything but waste all your cards on defense. Tried 10 times and we couldnt get it. Not a good way to get people into your game.
The tutorials are good in teaching you the game but in certain free battles when you get close to winning the app crashes every time.
Please make the app so you can play with real decks made by us or bought in packs or something, and to be able to play against other friends. Think bigger than just a tutorial! Wasted potential.
Graphics are great. Thats about it. They have the template to literally make the card game online but you cant play your friends ? And its extremely limited. The user interface is garbage. You cant click on cards to even see what they do. Youre stuck guessing what card to play until you memorize what each one does which is hard when you cant even read the writing on the cards.
Love the app its fun to get into the basics of the game, but is there going to be more content.
When we click the app it doesn't let us play it kicks us out.
Just tutorial mode. 2/5 stars we do not recommend.
This app is a great way to learn the game however they might as well implement a way for it to be played online with the physical cards youve bought from your local target or game store. Without such an app this game will die with things like covid19 happening. Its time for Bandai to get with the times and make this happen so this great game can be played online.
We love the aspect of this game but at the same time its just a simulation its not like mtg where we have a mobile and Desktop game but more or less just a way to learn and we know this card game is new but still it needs to be at the top to beat out its competitors.
El juego esta divertido pero como siempre lo estan dejando que se muera la popularidad y las dems compaas y juegos de cartas les van a quitar el negoci.
When we were new it will not let us in the app plz fix this bug plz we will give a 5 star if u do.
Cant even get past a certain point in the first tutorial cause it wont play the card.
This is just pure laziness. Make an actual game or just take this down. Good job making the physical game look like a joke.
You guys should really make this a card game for the phone like the yugioh game you have it would be so fun !!!!!!!! Please MAKE IT.
