Wield the magic of Merlin as you roam stunning landscapes in one of the prettiest idle RPGs we’ve ever played.
I love this game, but…

I play this every day. I wait all day until 8 pm for the day to reset, and instead of immediately jumping to social media, this is what i go to! I love the art style of the game, and being a learning character designer and writer, I adore the designs. They’re so inspiring and makes me even consider one day applying for Lilith or Farlight! Despite how much I love the game, there are a few things that are a bit unfortunate. I’m in Act 3 of the story at the moment, back in Holistone, and the only section of the story that I found truly had depth was Act 2. Watching the character development was very nice, and I loved a lot of the cutscenes. I only wish the same depth was applied to other parts of the story, and I wish there was more “show not tell” as the characters have a tendency to say exactly what is happening instead of letting the player analyze. In the realm of the money-involved aspects, I think that everything is WAY too expensive. While the game is very rewarding, some people enjoy spending money. However, the money spent on this game is arguably extremely expensive. One ten-pull is $50, which is absolutely outrageous. Not only that, but some of the bundles can get up to $100. Other gacha games like Cookie Run Kingdom offer much more inexpensive options, and given that, it makes me not want to spend anything on AFKJ. The only thing worth it to me is the Classic Gazette (300 gems a day). While I love this game, there are a lot of things that can be improved. I hope that ask the game ages, it changes for the better. :)

Wrong language, consistency

I’d like to point out that at some parts of the story (the characters dialogue & dialogue choices for Merlin) are not translated into English. While the untranslated bits are few and far between, & may not have had any particular significance to the story, it had occurred enough for me to be bothered by it. I hope untranslated parts could be fixed (or just not happen at all) for both the sake of future chapters & new players. On the other hand, there were times where a character that was initially referred to as “he” would later be referred to “she” & vice versa. For example, when talking to a NPC about a goddess, they had originally said “she” but then switched to “he” before switching back again. The lack of consistency in either of the things I’ve mentioned above is what bothers me the most.Putting aside these issues, the game has surprisingly been a lot more enjoyable and interesting than I had expected. The story & the voice acting are both quite solid. The design of both characters & the world are both interesting & great to look at. I also like how the environment changes depending on what part of the story you’re at, as well as what the NPCs say before & after said changes occur, making exploring & then re-exploring fun. (Not to mention being able to pet some animals here and there). I also appreciate the general generosity of the game when it comes to resources, whether it be in-game currency or things to improve the strength of our heroes. Hope the game continues to be enjoyable as it is now, if not better, in the future!

First let me say this I absolutely love this game storylines with each story stories are amazing now there’s clans you can increase your friendship with them and the ore you interact the more gains I’m just so immersed into this game but the only thing that ticks me off is arena and honor duel (mind you it says fair play top left of it too) but as you play this it just gets aggravating I just got done with a arena battle because I needed arena points and that’s only reason why I play that game mode anymore but I had a total power of 697,000 almost 700,000 and the opponent I faced was 523,000 and they still beat me how does that even happen they are practically a whole 200,000 power below me and they are still able to beat me just feels diminishing like I put all this effort into upgrading and someone lower than me with less levels less rank ups wins?? And honor duel just put that fair play portion out because that’s a lie I had my whole team maxed out last fight still 3 lives all I needed was one more win and I lost 3 times in a row last fight and that’s just one situation I’m not going to babble about more but either take the fair play out because it’s 100% not or fix the power system because I don’t even believe it anymore because that’s clearly a lie too if I’m losing to someone 200,000 power below me
