Community Insight:
They need to add more characters like to name a few Red Robin AKA Tim drake, and Bart Allen AKA Impulse, Roy Harper AKA Arsenal, Conner Kent AKA Superboy, Duke Thomas AKA Signal,.
We like playing with DC Heroes & Villains Match 3.
Im directed to go to the campaign and cant go any where else because we guess its apart of the tutorial. But once we click on the campaign we cant go any further or even go back. Please help.
Im done with games. Maybe we should just stop playing mobile games if theyre gonna keep making us pay. Ive had this game on our phone for many weeks and when we finally got a chance to actually play it fully is when it fell apart. Get ready to p2p all Im gonna say But hey, if you dont choose to pay, then you will get decimated by the much more difficult and OP villains. Doesnt matter what you do at this point halfway into the game. You cant unlock any new characters unless you PAY, you cant win any more games until you PAY most certainly cannot have fun without(you guessed it) PAY Just uninstall this game youll be Glad u did.
We love this game we play it like everyday but theres one thing that bothers us just a lil bit. Im a huge DC fan and Im a lil upset that they didnt add the mad hatter and Alice or the red and white queen. It would be really cool to add them.
Its a fun game to play. If you complain about it being difficult to gain rare gear to get stronger characters complete lots of raid battles to buy tokens.
This game is great and we love it but it has us stuck on duels whenever we log in it tells us we unlocked duels we click on it it gives us our duel name and then we can do nothing or click nothing Pkease fix this bug.
We been playing the game for a lil while its fun but it starts to get boring especially when you get the same ppl in the prizes and barely any resources. The Omega crystal we dont think we should spend $50-100 on a pack just to get them and please make more events then the ones that are on there something different. Like a raid for resources we need. We can also level up the characters we send on the raids is just an idea.
We started yesterday and have reached the Assault introduction, but after hitting save on the username our app just freezes completely. That and Id like a chance to get Booster Gold as he is the primary reason why we got this game.
We keep coming back to this game every now and then which speaks to the full potential for enjoying it. However we end up leaving it all the time bc its always so buggy. For example: you will hit the start button to play a gauntlet event and all of a sudden youre back in the campaign event you just came from, spending your energy to play a round you didnt actually want. Or youll play an event thats all about using the teen titans and theyre storyline but the game only lets you play with amazonian characters for some unknown reason. The funniest has always been the gauntlet events that say team up with sentinel characters but then requires you to actually use disruptors. Or youll play an event, win, and then when you navigate back to the level select, it shows that you didnt actually complete the level, negating your process but still deducting your energy to play. Oh yeah, and it crashes a lot like what everyone else has said. BUT the graphics are awesome and the characters and concepts are engaging. Its just all over the place in terms of its technical execution.
It was good at first but at lvl 54 the content is kind of lackingor repetitive. Its just challenges /waiting til Tuesday Wednesday for the golden tokens hoping to get a 5 staridk im bored after 4 months but it was good while it lasted. Edit: A couple months have passed since we did this review draft and this game is still very lacking. We got on after months and the only new changes were reskinned characters with a few new ones added. You pretty much have to spend alot of money to get the characters you want. Such a disappointment. We gave 3 stars but this game is 3/10.
The game is really fun but now when we open Assault the game freezes and we are unable to play. Please fix ASAP or Im deleting the game permanently.
The latest update has made choice missions impossible to win, even with the most maxed out characters. Please find a middle ground in the next update.
The power scaling on chapter 4 is awful, it went form 1639 to 3712, how is that fair? We cant level up our characters enough to fight characters 2 times as strong as them.
We see the new characters are being released like clockwork. But there havent been any patch notes or communications to the players in months. Worst of all, the assault leaderboard is hopelessly bugged for at least a week and standings are impossible to update. What is going on.
This game is amazing! It takes a game format Im not really interested in (match-3) and makes it entertaining, because we feel like matching gems is actually DOING something (defeating villains) instead of just filling a quota for the level. Im also really invested because we love DC (especially the Green Lanterns, and ESPECIALLY Jessica Cruz ). We do run into some bugs at times, and when they get fixed, theyre usually replaced with new ones, but we dont run into them very often. Everyone coming to the App Store just to write a review complaining about their technical issues instead of actually contacting support is not helpful. The only complaint we have is with the ranked mode. We put a lot of time into this game (get on every day, do everything we can given how many diamonds and how much energy we have), and our team is pretty strong at about 230,000 power. But, no matter how many times we refresh our opponents in ranked mode, we feel like Im always up against people that we have no hope of defeating (400,000-800,000 power ). We understand fighting people that are better than you and using skill to beat thembut within reason. Its kind of discouraging. Regardless, Im infatuated with this game, and we cannot WAIT for yall to add Simon Baz (Jessica needs her partner!), Kyle Rayner, and Guy Gardner! Thanks.
We love the game but we just wanted to ask if you could add the flash family you know like both versions of Wally west and Avery ho Jay Garrick and etc thanks.
We love this game Ive been looking laying it nonstop but we think that the energy refills way too slow.
We love the characters and the plot (as far as we could get) but there are just too many bugs/glitches that the game makes more angry than happy. Im stuck playing the same levels over and over again regardless of whether or not Ive already beaten them Its very disappointing because we want to love and play this game but we cant due to how many times it screws up and goes on the fritz. If/when the developers decide to do another update then dont focus on furthering the game (adding new levels, characters, etc) and just improve what you already have.
This game has the single worst character acquisition mechanics/chances Ive ever witnessed in a game. The gameplay is ok. Unfortunately youll save up for capsules, just to see the same few characters over and over again. Very predatory. Avoid.
This has been going on for months, losing energy because the game crashes constantly. Been online with tech support but still doing this. It has been at least 6 months of this. Tonight we bought gems only to crash 5 of 6 times in PvP. Lost most of our purchase. Character power ratings are all over the place, same character, same level, same tier but others have higher power ratings than ours. The game would be amazing if it worked but alas we think our time playing is over after waiting a year for fixes.
It cool game love playing it would like to see a dc multi versus come in it and change different raid bosses to different dc people you got to fight.
We have reached a paywall here, and things have started getting repetitive, but there was plenty of match-3 gameplay before that. We have been able to recruit plenty of characters, and go through most of the main plot f2p. The graphics are fine for this type of game. This game was very stable for us. A little more variety in guild opponents would be nice.
Add more updates and improvements for our support please we need a response from the devs.
Like the game but now the marketplace doesnt work.
We love it the game the heroes and the villains too.
The difficulty level has gotten to high, the enemies are getting stronger faster than we can afford to upgrade our characters. And it is impossible to get specific characters we want. Also, we noticed the Jokers nose graphic is looking blurry, think you can fix that.
Ive been playing Match 3 games for a while now, and we got into this one a few years ago! We especially love the art style and all the different characters you can pull for. We recently got our favorite, Livewire after a while! If you like Match 3 and are a DC fan, Id say definitely give it a try.
Cool game and fun, but it has some major bugs. Like our marketplace isnt opening. Very little updates on the app too. Mobile games die out, so maybe this game is on that path. Either way, fun but now this latest bug is affecting our game.
We love this game. Its exceptional. We really wish we could just play it. But its LOADED with bugs. Some days it wont load and we cant play at all. Other times the market place in game is completely blank so we cant buy the materials we need to level our characters. Other times in assault mode Ill chose an opponent and the game will freeze and we have to force close the app. We tried contacting support in the support chat and they never respond. Fix your bugs, get humans on your support team, and this would be a five star game.
This game crashes often. The market place/item store has not worked for the last 3 days or so. So now we cant purchase any items. Ive reached out in the chat numerous times and have received no response. Its become boring and redundant. Ridiculous.
Ive played for months, purchased a bunch of packs and such, only to waste money trying to unlock supergirl smh. Unlocking characters should be simpler.
The Marketplace has disappeared completely. There arent enough Metatopes to do ANYTHING. You can only buy 5000/day. Youll get a measly few as prizes but 500 is NOTHING when you need tens of thousands to tier up. Never enough things in the orange squares to upgrade your people, just blue and purple which only work on the lowest level characters. Levels say keep winning to get better prizes but they dont change AT ALL EVER. Same thing day after day, week after week. Im done and we suggest you dont bother either.
Fun game but has issues. It was working fine until the current update which we cannot access the marketplace anymore. Dont waste your time.
Really nice game though It would be really great if it included some more characters like Impulse or Batgirl (Cassandra Cain) or Superboy (Kon-el).
We have been playing since the game released and still enjoy for the most part. We wish they would go back to doing story events when the new characters release each month. It would help to give something fresh instead of just getting on and grinding for resources each day.
Kudos for putting in Starfire in the Green Lantern but we know you can do better. Wheres Kyle Rayner and Guy Gardner? Wheres Wally West? And no we dont mean Ace West, Im talking about the older Wally West. Also, if youre going to put in Aqualad, you might as well put in the rest of the main cast from Young Justice season one. And how about Wonder Girl a.k.a. Cassie Sandmark.
We hadnt played this game in a while and thought Id like to play again. There are way too many pop-up ads for in-game purchases. We play one round and have to close and reopen the app bc the pop ups dont stop. Its only been a day or two of playing and we might just stop playing.
There comes a point where theres nothing new to do at all. 99% of the time we let it auto play. Way too much involved with leveling up characters too.
Wasted our 2 days off from work to play this game, we send mail to support team and screenshot noting happen update thanks for fixing it we love you guys muah.
It just keep on loading, need help.
This game is fun but every time it gets updated it crashes. It never loads and its really annoying. We wish there were less glitches and bugs and they would add more to the map. They game has been out for a while and they havent updated the map. Most people have completed it.
We enjoy this game and play everyday but dont be fooled by the trailers. It is a pretty straight forward puzzle match/ character and team building game. The animation in the trailers isnt part of the game play.
Every time the game is updated it causes the game to crash for days. We havent been able to play since the last update, we open it and it just crashes.
Let us say first that we love this game, its fun and the time just passes when Im playing and leveling our favorite toons. However everytime they do an update we can never get back in unless we restart our iPhone or delete the app and reload. The last update was a few days ago and Im still not able to play and the game is just stuck on a loading loop. Ive spent money on the monthly pass and gems because we like this game so much but now Im losing interest fast! Sad to find a great game we enjoy and it just doesnt seem to work the way its designed too. :(.
If you enjoy trying to collect toons and level them at a very slow pace (unless you spend money) then this game is for you. Ive been playing this game for a bit and it started out a blast and we love it. Then recently they had a glitch and Im assuming an update that changed the rewards from Assault Strike and the ranking of Ranked Assault. We reached out to customer service about it and got a copy and paste response. Now, with the reduced rewards its making leveling up toons even slower. Overall, its still a fun game, however it was more fun when you could actually get somewhere with your toons.
Ever since the most recent update we cant even log on anymore! They totally messed it up and we cant even contact support! We have spent a lot of time and money playing this game and now we cant even access it! So wrong.
Cant equip to green arrow. Not sure but we can equip to other characters but not him. Seen something weird equipping especially the last spot bottom left.
We love this game so much. They add new characters pretty often so that keeps it refreshing. Our favorite background game by far. Could use some more levels in the main game.
We love this game it is great and fun. The new update however wont let us play. Im not sure what kinda update this is but crashing every time we load it up isnt fun. Fix it plz so we can waste away our good hard earned money.
