Community Insight:
The game is fun. Especially in the beginning. It has a large array of spells and items. However, the rewards, especially the items, seem to vanish and disappear when you check for them, especially the equipment. Which makes it more frustrating, because you get some good loot and then its all gone and all you have is gold and the flowers.
We downloaded this game and we aint going to lie its a fun game. But after several minutes of trying to play it. It lagged severally and crashed out on several occasions. These games need its bugs ironed out before downloading.
We love playing the game but since the update 5 days ago in the middle of playing the game will just stop working and take us back to our Home Screen. Each day we come back and play in hopes that the issue has been resolved and it continues to happen. We hope this can be resolved soon.
We like the game but it will not allow us to complete stage 5 now cause it keeps crashing & making us restart the stage all over again & redoing the same stage over & over, so we were hoping this can be fixed, Thank you! :).
Game crashes and is unplayable. Tends to happen when timer passes x minutes remaining mark. Go back in and resume game and allows you to play for a bit before crashing again.
Am we happy the game updated yes. But it keeps crashing in the middle of it. Cant play a game we enjoy if it keeps this up. Would hate to have to switch to another.
Game is legitimately fun, but it crashes constantly, lags intensely every time theres a lot of enemies, and overheats our phone so fast youd think it was a crypto miner. Maybe it is. They did a huge update with loads more content, but it did nothing for the problems, made them even worse actually. Its basically unplayable, which is sad.
The game crashes a lot, and we have an iphone 13 up to date. When a swarm of monsters come in our game crashes and we have to re open the app.
Paid to remove adds a few days ago. Worked that session, then the game failed to refresh the counters for 2 days so could not accomplish anything. Updated the game and now says we havent purchased anything. Restore purchases button did nothing except turn into contact us button which does absolutely nothing. Really enjoyed playing the game up to this point, but will not continue if purchases are not honored.
Great game. We enjoy playing this and the variety of spells our only issue is our farm/pet area. We cant click on the rocks,eggs etc to get the extra supplies that appear every so often. We can drag and drop our pets but thats it.
After the game was booted up, and we were on the main screen it will not let us do anything. It wont let us click on any button. And its also saying that we are on level 99 which is not right . Please add the option to report problems in the app.
We really enjoy rogue type games and this game is ok in that genre but it takes a little too long as far as getting new wands and upgrades and the difficulty level spikes up fast compared to the upgrades.
While we enjoy the game, each update comes with more hiccups and more interruptions. We lost 30K SP after updating to your most recent iteration. In addition to the lagging during swarms, the disjointed movement when caught between a spell upgrade screen, the pet reward freeze and the SP loss Im considering exploring other apps that execute this better.
Even after update still can not collect things in the pet area.
Theres been a bug for over a week where we cannot remove anything from our pet farm, the trees rocks and poo.
Everything works fine, except we are currently unable to clean up pet area, we can redeem the eggs and upgrade them, but cannot select items inside the fenced area, although it does let us move the pets around. Wanted to give an update.
Id give five stars except theres a bug on the pet zone where we cannot collect the rocks,eggs, or poo for rewards anymore.
We would write a review but it wont open. Ive restarted our iPad but the game just gets to load page and locks up.
This game was fun, and we were doing well slowly, but surely, upgrading things to win levels. Then all of a sudden, every level, every challenge no matter how much exp we gather, no matter which bosses/elites beaten, Im not given a SINGLE skill upgrade?? Not one, from the beginning of each level we try. Whats going on??? Fix this now.
Every time we finish a level it freezes on the loading screen. Makes the game unplayable.
First off everyone who has issues needs to stop rating 5 stars. If the game has serious issues you have to rate it 1-2 stars otherwise they don't care cause their ratings are still good. Title sums it up. Mid to late match, it starts lagging really bad and our phone heats up. This game is extremely cpu intensive apparently. Probably because of the large non procedurally generated map. It lags, which causes you to get hit easier, and it will crash. When you come back, there is no "continue last game?" Option, so you're just stuck losing your progress. Can't even play the game. Aside from that, how is the game? Well, it could be good. We really dont like how your health is in hearts. 4 hits and you die. And healing? We can't find any on the map, and we have not seen any kind of healing spell. Maybe you unlock it later but we can't even tell cause we cant get past the first chapter cause it keeps crashing!! Either way, both of those healing options need to be there at the beginning of the game on the first map. We like the wand idea, but we really dont like the slow attacking with no option for any kind of shield spell. There needs to be a spell that surrounds you, and damages enemies when they get close. You need constant dps, ESPECIALLY if your health is a small amount of hearts and not a % health bar, otherwise enemies just build up around you. Also, there should be an option to target specific enemies. It's super annoying when your character keeps shooting at enemies not as threatening as another enemy especially when that enemy really needs to be dealt with fast before you die/get hit. We should be able to tap and enemy and target it if we want aside from manual targeting, ESPECIALLY because we have no aoe dps or dps option that allows us to attack all enemies nearby. So overall, gameplay is okay. Cool concept, poor execution, and way too laggy, crashes too much, and an unforgivable oversight to not have a continue last game option. Overall this gets 1 star from all of this. Sorry, the cool concept just isnt enough. Plenty of people have cool ideas but we're not rating the idea, we're rating the game.
Game. Is good but we cant play it just stuck at loading.
The dailies on our app are frozen and wont reset. Otherwise, the game has been great.
We started playing this and really enjoy the gameplay. It is slow, very slow but steady progress after you get past the first 20 levels. We dont spend much money. We think Ive spent 10.00-15.00 dollars so far. We dont want to spend much at all since theres not a guide available from outside sources. Ill keep playing . One suggestion for developers We have a merge function to merge equipment, but it would be amazing to have a deconstruction type feature. It would be especially nice to make intentional sets of gear/equipment, like a set of moonweaver, enchanter, druid and phoenix.
At a point, the game becomes pay to win. Thats okay with us (for now) because we still get our dopamine rush even though its repetitive. We have been saving up to upgrade to a better wand. We were on our way there (okay still far away but doing our best), and our fat finger accidentally clicked 10 draw of the chests – which is bought with 2700 gems. It didnt say are you sure? And instead took our hard earned gems – and gave us garbage! Womp womp womp. We think thats what we would change about this game – confirming large purchases of chests. This is the second time its happened and we can imagine rage quitting if our fat fingers cause us to be robbed again. But! The game is fun! We enjoy it a lot. You decide if you watch ads or not, and we love that. Some days we dont mind and could use the extra bonuses but other times Im between work calls and want to just do a quick run. Also for some reason dashing doesnt work when trying to go to the upper left. Could absolutely be our phone, so we have not included that in the Star review.
We like to play games to waste time or while we are waiting. This isnt a good game to play as theres plenty of paywalls and progress caps. If you could trade gems/gold for stamina more than the amount of skip cards they give you daily it may equal out. Ive been on for a few weeks and have made some minor purchases. Needless to say, this is a play for 1015 minute game 2 times daily because you run out of stamina whether you watch all the adds or buy it with gems. Need more stamina regeneration/methods to buy them. Other than only being able to play it 1 or 2 times a day its a fun rng survival game. If it wasnt decent we would have given it a 2.
Since the latest update, our character randomly runs into invisible walls in the middle of the map. The only way to move past is to dash, but usually hitting the invisible wall makes us get hit by enemies so we lose health. Ive also noticed that dash isnt as responsive so sometimes we still get hit because our character doesnt move when we swipe. Not sure if this is a lag issue. Oh, and please remove the damage numbers. In big crowds, the damage numbers on screen block view of enemies so we cant see where we need to go or avoid.
After regrettably spending over $100 on this game to get rewards from the season event, we never received the keys to the character chests and the daily and weekly goals have frozen. Not only that, the game crashes regularly and the store hasnt updated in over a week. The fact that the devs arent responding to issues is truly regrettable Update: its been over 2 months with these issues and rather than fix the bugs they are more interested in adding onto the paywall of the game. They denied the game had bugs even though we sent them proof.
Youll be stuck paying money and then theyll nerf the wand youve spent money and time building. Nerf it by 40% on damage so pathetic.
When using a lot of abilities and getting over run with monsters the game starts to lag and then Im losing hearts because of the lag. Another issue that needs resolved is maybe making a setting to where you can turn off damage numbers. There has been countless times Ill get hit by a monster throwing something and because of all the numbers bombarding the screen we dont notice it. We dont need to see how much damage Im doing honestly.
Its an awesome game. When there is a lot of guys the damage you do to them shows up on the screen and blocks your view you cant see anything but hit points. Also it cost over 50 dollars to upgrade a wand to legendary nevermind to buy one its over 100 dollars. Ive spent some money on the season pass. But thats to much if you lower the prices more people would buy it. We cant see anyone spending that much for a game that is still in development.
Only downside for us so far is id wish the level was longer so we could use more spells.
Its a pretty enjoyable Vampire Survivors style game but with magic spells. Ive been playing for a few days. One thing we noticed is the ridiculous prices for currency. Energy systems in 2024 are already bad enough but one of the S rated characters costs 72000 gems. We look in the store and 10000 gyms are $99. You want us to believe they think this character costs $720 Other than the ridiculous get rich quick scheme its a fun game. Advice to devs: this isnt a sustainable model, add better features to at least make the monthly subscription worth it.
Enjoying the game, but there seems to be no explanation for what the objects with the yellow circle around them in each level actually do. It looks like the golden egg quest thing, but we have no idea what to do with the other thing. Doesnt seem to do anything.
Very fun game been playing since the start but it is and has been notorious for crashing and losing stuff one of the crashes took about 5,000 gems from us before the crash we had over 11,000 gems and when we opened that game back up we were down to 6,000 and it was just after they added the new wands the first time and they are adding more and thats good and fun but the game still crashes regularly when the mobs get big enough needs a lot of stability work before they add anymore and with how expensive 5,000 gems are we were very upset about them taking them away since it takes us a long time to build them up.
Awesome might actually be better than Harry Potter lol.
First off half way through the battle our character just WONT target some enemies so Im just kiting that also happened with elite bosses and we cant for some reason merge our armors to legendary we dont typically play mobile games but this is the one that catches our attention and now its mostly unplayable.
The game may be fun. But we can't click on most things in menu. We can't go into settings, we can't level up our wand. The game lags really bad in the menu and during gameplay there's huge frame drops too. Like really bad. Sometimes the game won't even detect our taps. Fix this bug. The game is pretty good from what we can tell. Update: so we just got a new iphone 16 plus and the game runs fine now. No frame drops find gameplay nor stuttering in the menu. We were using a iPhone SE 2nd gen. There may be bugs still. But the game runs smooth now. So this game just needs a newer device to run smoothly.
So the game is a lot of fun and challenging, but a little lost on how to get gold gear. We have so many of the same purples..we figured you can make gold but..not sure whats up? If someone can help us out please.
This game is very well put together & Ive been enjoying it over the past few weeks, however after getting past level 20 (sorcerers square) Ive encountered choking points where our game isnt able to keep its frame rate up. Specifically, this happens mostly during swarms & the last minute of the round, our game begins to choke up & we get bombarded with enemy mage spells, costing us the round usually at the last 30 – 15 seconds. This not only has to do with the large volume of enemies, but also the large volume of drops (which the bird / no ability even picks up the remaining drops left around the map, most likely adding to the lagging effects).
Not a bad game, challenging but fun. The only gripe we have right now it when the game kicks us off and we have to continue the map we were playing, all our upgrades disappear even though everything else about our level stays the same, Im left with little to no ability to win.
Every time we get close to finishing a level, just revive from a death, finish a level, or summon the phoenix, for some reason the game seems to keep crashing. Please help.
Pretty fun game but it is crashing mid battle 50% of the time and when we open it up to continue, all previously selected skills are gone. So, even if you are 10 minutes in and it crashes, when you come back you dont have any of the skills you picked through most of the battle. This means youre extremely weak and will never have a chance to finish that battle, wasting your time and the in-game energy. All settings are at low or off. It really is fun when you dont crash though and we wouldnt mind trying out the pass to skip ads but we wont be doing that since we only get to finish half the battles we start.
We enjoy this game but the challenge part keeps resetting the game. When we log back in and resume the stage we have none of the spells we had before the reset. Wish this wouldnt happen. Too bad.
Game crashes all the time. Anyone else having that issue.
The upgrades are trash.. Horrible at mid to higher lvl boring. Only good for a few lvls.
It's fun… But it keeps crashing mid dungeon. Or in the case of stage 9 we beat it 3 times to finally unlock the rewards – it kept crashing if we went for the double coin reward (we think) because on the third try we skipped the reward and it finally didn't crash. We couldn't get the rewards as a result of the crash, but it let us move on to stage 10 even after the first crash… It's just frustrating. Obviously we also hate how money grabby it is – like seriously? 10 bucks a MONTH for no ads, it's not a one time purchase.
Logged in today and it gave us our daily rewards, allowed us to spend the coins then the staves screen would freeze after upgrading and no buttons were clickable. We close the game, reopen it, this process continues thus granting us basically unlimited gems and gold. We chose not to take advantage of this and closed the game and came here to report it as we didnt see a report problem or report bug button in game.
The game is very well made and a lot of fun. Please just shorten the swipe requirement to dash, its really hard to get right:).
Let us start off by saying that we thoroughly enjoy this game, it has a generally great basis and gameplay plus the fact that you arent forced to watch any ads literally at all unless you specifically choose to watch them for certain rewards is awesome. Although we wanted to make not that once we reached chapter 5 it seemed to go downhill quite a bit. The gameplay and all stayed normal but we encountered numerous occasions where we would be playing a level or a challenge and once it got down to the last minute or two the game suddenly would crash. We would load back in and it would ask us if we wanted to continue the run we were on ( which is great ) yet when we did it would reset us back to basically the beginning of the run. There were multiple times when we would be playing a mission and the game would freeze/lag just enough where we would take damage from enemies out of our own control as well, we assumed part of the problem involved the amount of abilities ( ricochet and such ) overloading the game causing a crash. Yet the last 3/5 missions we have played have seemed to crash the game with mere seconds left causing us to restart at a point around 8 minutes. In our opinion this is most likely just a bug in the game that the developers need to work out. Other than those issues, we absolutely love the game. The graphics and levels are well made, and like we said, the point of no forced ads is fantastic. Its challenging but not overwhelming, and has just enough content to entertain without being overbearing. The fact that it is also a free game is what makes it awesome. We look forward to future updates and seeing where the developers take it.
