I think we’re all probably getting used to seeing some terrible mobile game ads, and the ads for this game aren’t great, but the game itself is fun. The ad makes it seem like you could play it for hours and never make it past level 1, which would be frustrating and not at all fun, but that is not the case. Leveling up, especially early on, is quick and easy. It does slow down, like all games like this, but it’s meant to be the type of thing where you go do other things for a while (work, school, sleep, etc.) and come back to some decent rewards. The ads that you watch while in this game are also terrible, and some take 5-6 taps to get out of. There are a few issues, like if you’re not on the screen it expects when a tutorial comes up, you can end up being told to tap somewhere that doesn’t exist, and you might have to force quit and relaunch to get the game to work again. Some translations are rough, but you can figure out what it means, others are missing. Also, the interface is VERY busy. Lots and lots of things all around the screen, greatly reducing the size of the actual game. And scrolling around in the game is awkward. It goes faster than your finger, so it’s difficult to control. Overall it is a fun game, but it could be better if they cleaned up the interface, translated all the text, and fixed the scrolling.

This game is set up saying ads aren’t necessary but give you huge benefits for watching them. But half the time I try it freezes at the end of the ad and I have to close the game and open it back up only to find I need to rewatch the ad if I want my reward. The “tarot” mini game is also a scam they have set up to watch ads. I counted 12 times in a row I apparently chose the wrong card on the first diamond level and I’m no mathematician, but the odds of choosing 1 wrong card out of 4 12 times in a row is wild. Then you have to watch an ad to keep playing. Also the pets just keep getting stuck when they die and try to respawn so I’m constantly reopening the game for that. I realized I’m being forced to close the game so much that I’m just tired of opening it back up. There’s much better and fair games that are similar to this that they obviously chose to mimic portions of their game off of, go play those instead and save yourself the time.

The game is a lot of fun and I enjoyed playing it. I even spent some real $$ for the ads free and one of the $9 packages for better gameplay and it was worth it. but…. It’s a scam (please read) After months and months of these side events (like battle of toy town), I finally looked up to see why I go from 1st and 50 levels ahead to 50 levels behind and rank 100+ in the rankings within the last couple of days… some people have logged into the game with their data turned off and still watched the rankings move around, same with treasure hunt enemies coming to steal your stuff. There are also people complaining about not being able to come close on the pvp charts since you would need 40 points per win but it maxes at 28 points so you can never get higher than rank 500 for the better rewards. Even players with the premium package that gives you extra fights say it’s impossible to come close. You aren’t actually competing with others, the game is designed to give you hope, then bots soar past you to try to get you to spend money trying to beat them. Unless you spend tons of $$$ you won’t be able to compete to get the higher rewards. It’s just a way for them to cheat you out of money by making you think others are better when it’s all fake bots built into the game.
