Community Insight:
So Im having no lucky getting the rewards from watching ads. And we payed to not even watch them. We click the button and nothing happens. Please help.
The game is good, the concept is amazing but our only problem is the summons lol. Got the same character 3 times in a row oh well.
It is so addicting and we recently moved it up to 2nd in our favorite games list.
Amazing game just wish there was more to it more shadow characters more quests and dungeons more powers more artifacts more skills more side missions and more chances to get more and better rewards and resources then the game would be perfect.
We think you guys have a really cool concept for the game! We enjoy the simplicity of the game but also the variety of items and shadow minions keep doing g what you are doing.
Really blasted through the first couple of stages. Easy to learn. Having fun good graphics.
This is a pretty fun game and you can get addicted easily.
Since we first finish reading solo leveling we been dieing for a solo leveling game but this is the closest to it not a bad game.
So far this Idle game is scratching our itch and in loving in. And so far no paywall so thats been neat too.
The game is really fun but one bug we found is that it takes at least 5 tries to start the game, it just shows a blank grey screen and then sometimes it loads, other than that its really good.
Good game. Already gives you advantage for free once you start.
Its a fun engaging game thats easy to figure out.
Our dailys wont reset or our passive buffs help!! Love the game though.
Theres this bug where we cant open the game anymore. We tap on it and its just a black screen. Before we were able to get in after a few tries, but now we cant get in at all. Please fix this.
Its a great idle game. It has plenty to do to keep you wanting to play more. One downer. Its not an idle where you can turn off your phone and it will keep going. You do have to play it to progress.
We dont know what Im doing but there is just so many vibrant colors going off at once so Ill stick around.
Please make a delete account or delete game data button. We want to start our bet on a fresh account but we cant because Im not able to delete the data. The game is fun but we want to play on a new account.
Its good we like the animation and its a cute little game Im excited to see where they take it.
We play this game in our spare time its rlly fun but it has a problem where it crashes and wont let us reopen the app we have to delete and redownload so we lost all our progress on our first account.
Great game but everytime we close out an then go to reload it, it doesnt load in. We have to uninstall and then reinstall an just sign in again to continue.
The app crashes every time you swipe up on it you cant get back into the game without deleting and reinstalling the game. Very frustrating other then that great game and im addicted.
Its a decent little game but we have to constantly uninstall and reinstall the game to even play it. If we have the game app up and running its fine but if we exit out and open the app back up again its just a grey screen and it kicks us out. Idk how else to fix this other than just uninstalling the game and reinstalling it so yeah its cool but just annoying we have to do this.
Crashes a lot but good game overall.
When we downloaded the game with interest the game wouldn't load properly even after installing it we cant even play it on Iphone IOS device.
Was playing nonstop for over an hour cause the game was so addicting but once we closed the game every-time we try to reopen the app we get a grey screen then it takes us back to our home screen. It also seems im not the only one with this issue.
Sometimes the game take a while to start up or sometimes just take us back to our Home Screen pls fix it.
This game is super fun and we love playing it with our clients, but every time we close the game it refuses to reopen. So we have to completely redownload the game and sign in again. Very annoying. Might not play for very long.
Fun game, fair in progression a little pricey on the in game store for some things but you get what you pay for with all the "dlc" giving massive boosts and exclusive perma stats. Only issue is that it is a hassle to launch the game. What we mean by this is after playing for a bit if we want to close the app and play again later we will be stuck on a grey screen and the app will close itself without even attempting the signing in part. Only way we found to bypass it is to delete the game and reinstall it every single time, it is ok because we keep our progress from signing in to apple but knowing we have to reinstall it just to play again affects our decision to even want to launch it in the first place. Will change review to 5* when we do not have to deal with that anymore.
The game is super fun, we find ourselves playing it consistently all the time. We love all the features of the game. The chat is bad, but you can turn it off if you dont want to see all the negative messages. The main problem we have with the game is the game loading. Once we open the game once we cant open it again. We have to delete the app, then reinstall it all over again each time we want to play. Its quite annoying, but Im willing to do it for now. Hopefully this will get fixed in the next update.
We really like this game however we can reopen it after we close the game. Everytime we close the game , and tap on the app icon again, it shows a dark screen and stays forever. We need to uninstall it and re-download the game. We really like this game so that we need to download it 2-3 times a day.
The is constantly crashing and once it crashes it wont open again you have redownload it which gets very annoying if you fix this we think it will be a much better game in our opinion. The game overall we feel is good we just started playing yesterday.
The game itself is fun, a classic idle game. The problem is that we cannot even finish all of the daily achievements without paying money. Two of the daily tasks require ads to be watched to earn different things but every time we try to watch it says loading advertisement and never plays. The only other option is to pay $8 to get rid of ads but it does not seem worth it to us, especially when everything else is so expensive.
We played the game once and got off and the next day we tried to get back on but kept getting a black screen and then cut off.
Each time we want to open the game we have to uninstall it and re-download it.
Their is a pretty annoying bug that occurs when we close the game and try to reopen. It stops at a gray/black screen then we cant play. Please fix this devs.
Game itself is good but its so terrible about 2 things. First of all, 90% of the time you try to open the game it just stays on a gray screen and then crashes. Second of all the ads you can watch for benefits dont work most of the time either. Patch this game already.
Cant play without having to re-download every single time. Very fun game and we would give a better rating if we could actually play.
Its a fun game but as of lately its been having issues opening up meaning we cant play. Please fix.
Why is it every night when we get off the game and we try to open it again. The game just shows a black screen for about a minute and then closes. We have to delete the game, re-download it then it will work. Only until we get back on hours later and it does the same thing again. Fix your game.
Made available to use on M1 MacBook Air as compatible app, but only loads opening screen and music, then freezes. Unable to pull down menu. Have to force quit every time. Fix it please. If not, then at least remove it from being able to be downloaded on MacOS.
The game freezes at the same place and we cant even do anything cant progress cant upgrade our troops nor the mc.
Please help Hello us nike name in the game is ARGONOTE we have a problem when we started the game we played and cleared the stage but our character cant go through the portal to the next stage and we have 100.000 diamonds we dont know from where it came so yah we need to fix the bag for our account.
This game has loads of potential, with new players coming in all the time the issue is, the only competitive feature is the global rank system. We actually like that system BUT it is currently filled with people who either intentionally cheated, or caught one of the various bugs in the game. Switching devices, getting notifications, leaving the app on too long all of them break the game and it becomes unplayable. The devs clearly DO NOT CARE ABOUT THIS GAME.
Somebody has stated this before. Game doesnt load, so you have to delete and reinstall the game. Yeahnot gonna be doing that every time we wanna play.
Downloaded the game and it just stays at the title screen. Won't allow us to log into anything and keeps crashing. Deleted it and reinstalled it and nothing works still.
The game when It tries to load up freezes our entire phone not just the app when we try to load up the game and we also cant load into the game either for some reason and this has only started to happen after 4 – 5 days after playing the game for the first time.
Game was fun when we started yesterday. Today we learn we have to redownload it in order to play? Ya, no, Im gonna play something else.
Cool looking idle game but wont launch after you close it, have to reinstall. Dev website only Korean language so couldn't submit a ticket. Complaints about this issue from Jan and Feb in reviews, it is now May so no find and fix in 5 months? Poor form, sorry! Ill fix our review when you fix your game.
