Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This game is really fun to play. We also really like the song, its great.
We love this game, Ive had it for about a year now, and almost everyday we get on to play it! We love the old game style graphics and am a huge fan of everything magic, so it easily keeps us entertained. Im loving all the things you can do and unlock and leveling up our Magics, however, theres one thing we think you could do to make it a bit better. Ive had all the spells unlocked for a really long time, maybe you guys could add in one or two more element sets for us to play with, personally we think it would be awesome to see a holy and shadow or light and dark element sets. That would make an already great game even better! We hope you guys consider our suggestion, keep on rocking.
We love this game, played it religiously. Unfortunately we cant salvage our old wizard. But we forgot how to play xD. Still amazing and would be incredible to play on the Nintendo switch.
This is the GOAT of idle/incremental games, across all platforms. It simply doesnt get any better than this. The amount of stuff you can power up (including individual spells via the XP system) will keep the most hardcore of idle grinders satisfied for a long, long time. The replayabilty of this game is second to none, the NG and templar system keeps us coming back again and again. Just incredible.
We honestly am having a blast with the game. Its a semi-idle game that you should probably keep your phone open for. There are virtually no ads and the iAPs are not needed.
We love this game and it makes us even happier that instead of just copy pasting the same message to every review you actually address the review <3.
Truly a fun and relaxed game! Definitely worth a try.
We really enjoyed the game and it would be cool if you guys added new spell skins. Its been getting boring and would be cool if you guys can add some new things please.
Iv been playing non stop for the past two months and have spent over $100 on this game because we love it so much. Im kinda getting tired of everything and we feel like the game needs a new update or at least revamp the settings and UI. Maybe add clans where you can bring fellow wizards with you or help slay bosses with other people. Add new spells, new variants of runes and spells aswell. Please make another update! Im craving one haha.
Fun to build skill sets, fun to upgrade, no need to click crazy, fun idle elements and refreshing incremental mechanics.
We absolutely love this game. We were hesitant at first because Ive played a lot of idle games and eventually you hit a wall and have to spend a ton of money. This game is very fun and can be idle if you wish or active without breaking your fingers clicking to get that 100,000,000 clicks achievement. Great game all around. Easily one of our favorites.
We love these games. We played all the way through the first game and am now working on the second. The graphics are so much more appealing on this second installment, and we love the upbeat music.
We love this game, but it takes way too long to find runites. Thats really our only problem with the game.
Not gonna lie, this game is actually good, if you like having that retro pixel style along with a variety of skills and magic. Then this is the game for you we only have one complain though, at the time we were making this, we noticed that the game has been dead without updates for 7 months, maybe there was a reason for it but id love if the game updated for frequently.
We really like these kinds of games, only wish someone would make one and just sell it to us without in app purchases.
Decent enough game, but the complete lack of updates for 12+ months, and lack of new content has given us no reason to keep playing.
It looks like a good game, we think, but the text is too small to read.
This game is good not gonna lie but there is a bunch of bugs and some glitches we were playing for about 2 weeks and we were at a high level. We went afk but when we returned all our progress deleted. Play this game but beware of the consequence of lose all your progress.
Abandoned game. Could have been good. Dont download. Ran it through for over a month. Sorry guys.
We like the idea of wizard battles but all you do is kinda just sit and do nothing. You dont tap or anything to attack, you just sit there while the wizard does the work. We wish this were more creative.
It seems this game has spiraled into money desperation. We cant open the game without the developer shoving their weekly deals in our face. If this game werent free we would have never touched it. If youve spent money on any mobile game you need to re-evaluate your priorities.
We really like this game and am currently NG+5 and had an issue with the current update. After we sent a help email, Topcog contacted very quickly and keep assisting to resolve! Great Developer response.
We absolutely love the new update, it was quite literally exactly what we were looking for, especially with our suggestion of the new schools. We believe we said Light, Darkness, and Earth, which yall seemed to have used pretty well. The skin system is pretty dang cool and creative, too. We have seen one bug though, and thats when we got the Bloom skin. We already had Maelstrom skin, and the Chaos affect is showing up in the skin menu, but the Nature effect wont show up in the menu. We can use the skin itself, but the effect wont show up.
We played a game similar to this. Spells and passive/bonuses all the same. Graphics way better here but game music better there. No prob with progression as we feel it is meant to be a game you check on once awhile to raid for those shards to make stones for spells. We havent remorted yet like we did in the other game. Nice game to have to play a few mins here and there. If you wanna grind you can get a lot more items and can progress faster. Enjoyable, but it a commitment for long term play.
It seems the new spell skin again isnt loading without an update but there is no pending update in the App Store.
It's and ok game but getting new spells is way to slow.
The game is really good it does have options to spend real money but it is not pay to win we really like that. We have a question Ive played all of your games but which one is your favorite.
In one the responses to a review you said the game takes an average of 50 hours to beat the game. What do you mean by beat the game cause our active time is at 9 days and im only on ng+ and havent unlocked all the templar skills.
We dont understand how to progress since it says finish doom place but Ive been trying for months and its not possible yet. Other than that the game is better than most and also has some cool animations.
Takes forever to prestige and afterwards doesn't make the game any faster. Also isn't really " idle . " 0.5/10.
This game is a excellent time waster and always keeps you busy, it may get tough at times but you can see yourself get stronger as you play, we have not had the need to buy anything either (raids are enough lol). But if you love Time wasters then this game is for you.
We love how much there is to do in this game and and you dont get tired of looking at the screen because there are things you can still do even if this is an idle game! In our opinion this is a really great game and we hope many others can enjoy it at well.
We have sunk around 10 hours of active play time in this game over the past week while commuting to and from places. It is very fun and a great way to kill time.
The game is fun. Its heavy on the grinding side if ya like that. Feels like somthings missing but it passes the time not too far in yet sooo hope it gets a little better but still a great game.
Love booting this up for 5 mins (hours?) a day. Great progression and cool spells.
We enjoy this game throughly and it is always very exciting when you unlock a new spell, we like how the game encourages you to be active so you level up spells quicker instead of just installing the game and logging on once a week. A few ideas we have is possibly add more magic schools, for example wind or earth. This would add more variety and spell setups. Another idea is a boost in the different schools, what we mean by this is that fire has a more powerful burn damage effect and it procs more often, ice has a more common freeze effect, lightning has more chain capacity, etc. The reason for this is to add more reasons to use certain magics over others, if you want a strong clearing build you would focus on fire and lightning instead of ice. Another idea with the same concept of the previous one is that you get an even bigger boost to the burn/freeze/chaining abilities if all five of your spells are from the same school. This would encourage people to focus on one school more than others for their type of play style. For example, a very aggressive player would use fire and its enhanced burn proc to kill everything on the screen, but if a more cautious person was playing, they would use ice to increase their survivability because they would be freezing enemies that were in melee range. More ideas for new magic schools could be wind, where its passive ability is that is knocks targets back a bit(could work like blink but for monsters) this would hit enemies in melee range backwards so you couldnt get hit by their attack, obviously this sounds overpowered so they enemies can just walk back to their original position. These are all just ideas, we are always willing to listen to constructive criticism. Thanks.
Ran into a bug that affected our game, emailed the support team, got our issue resolved easily.
Theres plenty to do, its cute, the game feels rewarding and the spells empower each other to turn you into a great wizard.
We love this game the only thing is when you watch an ad to unlock a box it says youre supposed to get 2 runite but we never get any runite please fix.
We find there to be a long time of grinding to get good. It takes hours of gaming time to get here u want and starts to get repetitive sometimes. Overall its a pretty good game good game.
We played until the first real full reset (not just the mini resets you do frequently to progress. We found it very disappointing, you basically have to beat the game 8 times to the game. Its fun but its not that fun, and they really try to squeeze money out of you for final power ups.
This game is just absolutely fantastic. The amount of depth has got us hooked for weeks!! Love it.
Edit just for this version: every 30 seconds or so the game lags and hangs fir about 1 second. The game has run flawlessly for us on all previous versions. Ipad mini 1, ios 10. As a commuting airline pilot, 90% of the time we play on airplane mode. Previous review This is clearly TopCogs Crown jewel, and now that hes joined up with iron horse we cant wait to see where this game goes!!! :) Its completely free so run dont walk and download a copy right away; youll be glad you did! With 3 Full layers of different types of prestiging this game is one of the deepest ever made. For you veterans that are worried about spell levels going up to slowly just remember each new game plus your experience points increase twice as fast for spells. By the time you get to the inner sanctum your spell levels will be increasing 1600% faster then when you started. Its a long battle to get to the inner sanctum but still easier than getting the mystic cheese from idle brain quest (awesome game btw), so keep at it youll get there! Mark IV level 5 spells are possible! SPECIAL REQUEST: please bring back two songs Reclamation and The long walk. It be great if they could be unlocked in game, or with runite, or even a real $ purchase. Btw what exploits got patched this time around.
Ive never done a review before so dont expect much. That should also tell you how much we love and appreciate this game. We love us some incremental games and the quality ones are few and far between on IOS. This is one of them. Absolutely no need to spend money to enjoy the game. Im not entirely far into the game but Ive put in a good amount of hours and we can tell theres so many cool things ahead. Games like these make us want to spend money to support such great devs. We definitely plan to in the future Listen if you enjoy incremental games. Just try it. Youll like it.
Very addictive we just got this game yesterday and we cant put our phone done.
Fun game to mess around on. Great customer service.
We find ourselves resetting the app about every 30 minutes or so.
Not really a game we can see ourselves playing considering even an hour of play felt like we got no where.
Its slow and complicated at the beginning but is now really fun to compete with friends.
This game clearly is not for everyone. It's unique in an awesome way. Those people who say it needed to pay to fasting the progress clearly don't know how to play this game or they're just too lazy to try further. Shame on them.
