Ratings and reviews

phenomenal game. It is truly one of the best mobile games I've played and the only one I have found like it, which is hard to believe. totally free with the exception of those who wish to buy meta game currency, which is earned through achievements, so not hard to get at all. no ads. I didn't have any bugs. my second try, i had one fighter carry the whole thing but haven't tried ascention yet. hope to see improvements and more games like this

This is one of the best free mobile games out there. It is absolutely worth your time. The depth of the battle system and economy lets you come up with unique builds, and theres so much room for creativity. The lack of microtransactions and ads really makes the experience so much better. That said, there are a lot of balancing issues atm. By mid-late game, you have more money than you could ever spend with no way of putting it to use, and the gameplay slows down quite a bit. Overall very solid.

Has two major bugs/poor design which are as soon as you hit the advance button, you cannot go back and have to fight. The other bug is when you buy or upgrade your estate, it doesn't update how it looks when you're playing and you have to quit to title and go back to the game for it to update your estate. Other than those two things it's a super fun game.
