Ratings and reviews

Its a pretty good D&D knockoff. Calling it RPG is a bit of a stretch. I like the character class trees and town building. The crafting is (as always) a huge waste if time... just give me better loot and skip all of that. They dont force you to tune in every day, but give you free stuff if you do. There are also some multiplayer elements I guess. I like to get quests from the town hall to take a long walk and then just click the map and off you go lol

Pretty good game, it delivers on its promises. No character customization unless you're willing to pay real cash, which for me is a no. Game really pulls you in for the first 60 lvls. It's not too difficult to move up but once you hit 70 it definitely gets harder. You'll need to bring more and compete at the arena if you wanna even move up a level. I don't have any issues with this game other than the monster spawning is a little weird and inconsistent. But I believe they're fixing that. So 🤷‍♀

for a single player rpg, it's alright. The whole thing just feels like a beta release of a game. Enemy spawns have no theme or reason to them, so a mummy pharo can be found in forested areas, or a weeaboo boss will spawn in the mountain viking area. it's pretty random. the soundtrack is alright, but piano? very strange choice. ends up getting muted after awhile. Aside from the odd event, there isn't much to do. Dungeons are uninspired, linear rush to the end things. it just feels empty.
