Rift Wars™: Merge Arena

I truly find this game to be one of the best auto chess types that I’ve found. The troopers are cool in design, the traits they offer are interesting and team building feels very solid. There isn’t a huge troop pool but this is a both good and bad. The balancing I mentioned mostly comes from this troop system. You can level up individual troops so the comps you use can be stronger. That is interesting for an auto chess but leads to those who pay money to just quickly over level and you’ll find yourself against a wall. It’s not too common to see but can be frustrating when it’s nearly a guaranteed loss. The only last point is the Heroes. This is probably my favorite part of the game as it can really add that final piece to your go-to comp. However, a couple are definitely much stronger than the rest and it may seem a tad unfair as getting them isn’t easy as a F2P player. I’m looking at you, PlasmaBot. Besides my gripes, the unfair matches are few and the game is genuinely fun so I won’t be uninstalling any time soon. I’ll just keep grinding resources and wait to see what they add next.

I love this game so much it’s crazy. I like how you get 25 trophies when you win and you only lose 5 when you lose so it doesn’t feel like you’re losing everything every loss. You’d have to lose 6 in a row to truly start losing progression and it’s not a punch in the gut it’s more of an “I’ve got to try harder”. I’m gonna be a F2P player like I am in all games and sure there’s stuff to spend money on but honestly I still feel like I can play without much of an unfair-ness. I LOVE the characters so much and hot take: I’m really glad when you merge them they don’t genuinely evolve. In a lot of other merge games they have one or two good evolutions then the other parts are just filler. I really do love the character design. There could be more characters, maybe more tiers and a little faster progression, but other than that it really is good. You don’t ACTUALLY have to pay money to unlock every unit you js have to grind a little bit. One thing I will say is if I ever were to pay for things, it’s way too expensive. Anyways thank you for reading this, and thank you for creating one of my new favorite games. Please don’t go downhill like clash and actually listen to some of your more upvoted reviews. Thank you.

This game feels super nice to play even when losing. I know starting off a review this way sounds odd but the gameplay itself is fun winning or loosing. Matches are not dragged out and give variety to each match as you progress. Love the constant randomness of the matches modifiers and team builds. Game has amazing counter building of teams and really well put together team comps that are easy to understand. Yall are doing great, please keep going, and you’ll have my support for a very long time.
