Fun game, had my characters relatively decently leveled. After the last update I was mid-fight and went out of the app to take care of something urgent. I went back in and was back at the main menu. None of the buttons worked so I closed out and restarted multiple times. Nothing seemed to work so I un-installed and reinstalled and lost all of my data. This is horrendous for UX. I've spent probably 40 hour so hours on leveling the account for it to be lost to something as so stupid.

Finally, a fun game! The gameplay feels smoothe, there are a lot of mechanics to explore and master. There is a clear way to advance free to play, no forced ads, but the option to watch ads to get ahead slightly. The game has a lot of possible strategies that can become truly strong. The fact that there is an element of luck makes that interesting as you never know what build you will have to settle for. I would love other modes added with infinite rounds against predetermined levels or such. :)

I really got this game hooked up. Time flew like i didnt care. It was a fun game of luck and strategy of course. No need to pay to progress, unless you choose to! Watching ads to refill that precious one life extra to make sure you win all 15 trophies, i can live with that. Not getting the item you want to appear in the shop can be frustrating, but hey, there's always another day for payback.

The game itself is fantastic. There's more than enough variety with the characters even if you don't have them all unlocked. The few bucks immediately unlocks so much more play time and I enjoy all of them, even if they're normally not my "style." My one complaint is I despise subscriptions in Mobile games. With how easy they are to forget (~85% of people have at least one subscription they've forgotten) I can't condone it. Making the ad removal a one time purchase would make this game 5/5

I've only played a day, and I'm already seeing issues. The game seems to be truly random, so you can start your first fight without the ability to buy weapons, and 30% probability actions can go 10 rounds with no procs. The game also gets immensely hard as you near filling all stars for a run, as only the builds that have gotten lucky with drops are left. At least make the drops favor the hero you've selected, I'm tired of getting 80% mana items on an energy hero.

Addictive and great game! Simple and yet it needs a strategic placements... But there's still room for improvement : 1. Batery draining problem (batery usage likely equal to a MOBA type of games), 2. Switching for greater bagpack is a hassle, we need to remove items in the bag(s) first 3. When we still have little filled slots, adds a turn button (clockwise and counter clockwise). For easier moving all of the items and bags Thank you for the great game!

Day 2 player here. The game is hella fun with huge variety of builds to experiment with! It's quite timegated though but it gives some sense of progression, and allows players to focus levelling on the preferred builds. However, the choice of card is still somehwat random. Suggestion to the dev: Implement some mechanics to let players narrow down on the choice of cards obtainable from chests. Thanks for reading.

Very addicting game. Monetization is pretty predatory however. You can unlock everything in game with currency earned over time but it will take a while. Ads are everywhere but they're optional. They incentivize watching ads by giving you a single life, premium and normal currency and refreshing quests. Be ready to watch a lot of ads if you want to advance. Other than that it's a pretty weird game to have progression in since those who pay or have played longer will dominate newbies most times.

For someone who is as busy as myself this game and the ease of use it offers is amazing the gameplay is simple but gets more involved as it goes on in rounds the items are fun and have a good range of synergies that you can make into fun builds, only thing I would ask for would be an option to watch adds to speed up the chests as when there full you can collect more other than that it's a fun, quick and interesting little game.

First off this app is a lot of fun, but the micro transactions are getting ridiculous. $5 per character is already pushing it but now they want to charge $3 a week to skip ads. That's absurd. I would gladly pay $3 once to unlock an ad free mode, not everything needs to be a subscription. I'd rather go buy the full game this is a knock off of than sign up for another subscription (Backpack Battles on Steam). I will continue to play for now, as I enjoy playing this on the go

Looks simple at first...but is actually semi-complex... I tend to try and run a "rat build" where each rat buffs another rat. But you need to chose between what kinda rats, daggers (at they are 0 mana weapons so good to spam, but weak) or more space. Unlike most games that have this cartoon style, this also feels like you can actually choose and progress. Would totally recommend 👌
