Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
But we love this game. Doesnt take a whole lot of effort. But its just a nice idle game to play while youre vibing through this life.
We love the game but we feel like it could have more. It feels empty we dont know how to explain it maybe someone who reads this will understand.
We remember when we used to play this game at school. It really was the best and got all of our classmates team working for guild raids. Until this day we have that nostalgia and we will keep playing it. The mobile app makes it so much easier and connects with any platform. Defintely a good improvement.
Im having trouble for some odd reason it is saying that there is a parameter missing and we cant see or join any guilds with the new characters. We made.
The ads on Facebook make is seem fare more… Interactive than it is? We guess this is good for people with other stuff to do while they wait for boring time gating. We spent a few bucks on it, it was ok for a day or two, then we deleted it. shrugs.
Very fun and addicting. And not time consuming.
It's good but it has a few bugs like when you leave the game if you were on the middle of a quest it'll cancel it out minor things but overall good.
Ive been playing for about 9 years and this is one if the funnest games ever.
Its a decent time killer.. Not very many active players on our server though.
We would give this app 5 stars if didnt crash so much. The game is fun. It plays better on a computer.
The game is fun. Only issue is theres no offers to get more mushrooms. Also every time you click on the flying tv the app crashes. Also how do you join guilds its very confusing.
Not worth our time if it crashes every minute or so.
Ive been playing this for about 2 months now and we really love how low maintenance it is. Really fun idle rpg. However the most recent update introduces some really bad lag. Its like the game is locked at like 10fps. It makes navigating menus difficult. The frame rate was flawless prior to the update. Hopefully this gets addressed quickly.
Its easy to learn. Graphics and characters are epic. You have goals to reach higher levels. You compete with people all over the world and its a chance to be apart of group battling for victory And you can gain coins and mushrooms used in game play in many creative ways. Highly Recommend.
Fun game for long time play! Loads of new content.
Cool game. Interesting concept. It adds in a twist to your stereotypical build your fortress and forces style games. It adds an element of interesting RPG. Its not super strenuous and doesnt require CONSTANT attention. Its definitely worth a try just to see some of the quests and try out the cool classes. However, gold making is absolutely terrible. Its slow and painstaking. It needs to be fixed. Also, some UI needs to be fixed up and make much more manageable. And user friendly. Also needs to be a bit more interactive.
Is an ok game for when you are bored, in our opinion they make you wait to long for the fun stuff like running your fortress and such.
Like all other games in order to get levels you end up paying.
The game looks interesting; the illustration is fun and inviting. The game play is slow and if you dont spend money, youll probably lose interest pretty quickly. We want to play this game, but we very quickly run out of things we can do. So we have to play something else.
This game has content that is level locked which is fine so you dont get bored after mastering everything.
We download the game then Im stuck on main screen with blue bar not loading. Cant even try the game out :/.
So many games are re-skinned versions of the same 3 or 4 things. Its refreshing to see a unique gem like this come along.
Fun game. Guild portion doesnt make any sense, but fun game that doesnt take a lot of time.
Voice acting and incredible art were the best part of the whole game and the good qualities immediately stop there. UI felt unfinished and very unintuitive. 4 different clicks then a drag and drop to equip an item is excessive. Coins are in decimal points for…some reason? Immediately time gated. Most of our time was spent doing something else on other apps while our character did 1-3 minute long quests right out of the gate that seems okay for late or mid game but not for getting started. If one of the first things your players do is find something else to do then thats a problem to us. Just didnt hold our attention as a new player. UI frustration was our main issue though. All in all not miserable but there are much better alternatives.
Its a fun game. The game is free to play, but all good items cost Shrooms and for Shrooms you gotta spend real $$$. Its a long grind. Once you get far eneough, progress slows drastically considering quests get better, longer, and waste more of your daily energy. Want more energy? $$$. Want better gear? $$$.
They are doing better with this app :-).
Its good but we hate the fact we can only play a couple of games a day because you are required to buy mushrooms. We hate games that forces you to buy. We would rather pay money to games that you can play and not worry about purchasing anything in order to play. Watching videos dont even reward anything.
Our version was forced over to the remastered version when we very much prefer the old school version. It was much easier to navigate and operate. Now when we get an item from a quest it disappears into a void? Also the tv is broken and no longer gives any reward for spinning the wheel. Im not sure if its just us or the wheel is broken as well, 11 spins and got recourses almost every spin, which who cares? Hindering our enjoyment of the game. We wish there was an option to switch back to the old school style.
The game's developers always add something new :)).
Ahora como te obligan a pasarte al modo remasterizado el juego dejo de funcionarme.
Love the game allows us to play and in between do other life things. Only thing Im trying figure out is how to get people to join our guild. Love the humor in the game.
This game has always been amazing, keep up the great work.
Could be a little more descriptive.
10 years and this game is legend.
We have enjoyed it this game as a nice distraction. Give it a try.
Great game! Its not complicated to play, very user friendly, the battle system is easy to understand. We used to play this on the computer years ago, super glad it came to the phones.
We have played this game back before the app. We recently picked it back up and all the updates are sweet.
Best game, enjoying with friends.
Please officially restore Chinese. Thank you.
We just wish there was a global chat that everyone can talk to.
Moim zdaniem gra jest naprawd fantastyczna jak dla mnie gra moe zosta taka jaka jest.! Pozdrawiam Oskar.
We are not far in and it goes slow. At first we rejected it because to go on a mission puts you on a loading screen for quite a while so at our lvl (22) there is a lot of waiting… But we work on several characters at once on 2 different accounts to keep us busy with it, until we run out of energy to do missions, then we are done. Oh and we usually only get matched up with characters higher than us in the arena, sometimes 10 levels above us so we rarely win an arena match.. We do wish they would make it even.. Only go up against your level.
We find gameplay rather repetitive and boring though.
One pilze ist man aufgeschmissen ein pay to win game.
Good app, but needs some improvements.
The best game ever, this game make our life easier and better, we have mushrooms everywhere and how many we want, its crazy.
Been playing this game for several years. Took a couple of years off, but been solidly playing for about 6 years. Not much into strategy games, but this is fun. Kind of reminded us of WoW in the beginning. So we started our son playing when he was like 7 or so. Its fun, we dont need to play all day to advance and there is no nudity or foul language in the game. That we like.
Great filler while you play other games has p2p qualities but if your not worried about being #1 this game has just about everything.
We find it very fun playing this game because its the only strategy game that we have ever liked so we highly recommend this game for people who like the game of thrones, or mythical creatures and people we love it and will continue to play this for as long as we can.
Love the game its fun and keeps our attention at night.
