Fun at first then you realize if you want to compete you have spend money
siralexgameplayer1111
Fun at first I played a lot.. strategic moves gets the win but later I notice my opponents are 3 times stronger than mine so hardly a fair match. I decided to play more to get extra free gems but that only occurs every few hours so waiting around was a pain. I never made a purchase so after one day of extra playing I notice it said I’ve reached my daily limits to earn points. WHAT?! So In other words the only way to really compete in this game is to pay for extra cards for upgrades since the earnings on free plays have daily limits Onto the next game
A very hot game—literally

On my iPhone 7 this heated the phone up to such a point that the display darkened to reduce heat output. It got so dark I couldn’t see anything, whether in game or out. In the end I had to wait for my phone to cool down. I’ve enjoyed the game a lot so I probably will try again when I upgrade in a year or two.
Work in Progress

I get that ar games are a hard format to make and his is a really great game I had this on my old phone and it was new but this game has developed really well I just hope you work on back ground graphics and make the tile look like land instead of black flat surface and just bump on the graphics on the monsters and make the home screen look cleaner
Addictive Pay to Win Strategy Game
Sir Amelius
If you love strategy, this game is really fun in the beginning. Overtime, unfortunately, you will start to notice that your skills don’t matter. You soon realize that achieving victory means you also have to have good cards. Each card requires X amount of cards of the same type to level up to keep that particular card competitive as you grow through the ranks. To get new cards you have to either purchase them with in-game currency or wait for chests to open. Chests take hours to open. Opening them sooner requires in-game currency. In-game currency is accumulated at an exceptionally slow rate. To receive more of this currency you have to pay real money. So the formula, to simply put, is: Victory = good strategy + competitive cards; competitive cards = in-game currency; in-game currency = suicidally long wait times or real money. I’ve gotten to the point where I’ve plateaued. I’m pretty good with the strategy, but it’s gotten to the point where I have a behemoth that has 10 HP vs an enemy who has one at 19+ and opponent has monsters that do 3x more damage than any of mine. Impossible to advance without better cards. Aside from certain strategies, the last lesson this game taught me is humility. You can try your best, exhaust all options, fight to the last card, but sometimes you really can’t win; you must accept defeat and walk away. I’ll check in from time to time but I can confidently say I’m disenchanted.
Cool game but...

Cool game if I were to tell the developers how to improve it what I would recommend is creating evens that involve guilds teaming together and working against other guilds in a combine effort. For hitting certain tiers receiving certain points. Also creating new content and over all just improving game play.
This game is hot stuff

Love the game, I think you can look forward to future updates of it. HOWEVER, I highly recommend not playing this game for too long otherwise your phone will become a hot plate.
Heats phone

I tried the game for a short time. It worked well but my phone started getting very hot. Idk if its just my model (iPhone 6s- IOS 11.0.1)
Like Star Wars game

First off, I would like to report a bug. When you hold on a monster at the bottom of the screen, you can not push the X to get out of the info screen. (A little game breaking.)Now here is my review. This is very much like the Star Wars game that Chewy and C3PO play aboard the Falcon.
