I originally tried this game a while back and it seemed simplistic and I gave it about 10 minutes before erasing it. DO NOT DO THAT.I gave it another shot, and it is very well written to become more complex. Once you’ve unlocked a lot of challenges, and time energy it REALLY takes off and I can’t put it down.Doesn’t kill you with ads. You have the option to watch ads for some bonuses, but I haven’t experienced ANY forced ads like other games. This got me to happily pay for no ads to support the game. If you don’t want to pay, the ads don’t ruin the gameplay. This is probably my second favorite idle game. Easy 5 star rating from me.

As I stated, the game can be incredibly fun at times. One of the best idle games I’ve played. It might even make your top 10 if you give it a chance… however, I have a few gripes.1) Typical idle game gems/shop/ads: alright, I am okay with minimal ads, and I CAN also be okay with a gem system where you can make your life easier by spending earned in-game currency… especially since in this one, you can earn a gem for each achievement… HOWEVER, these gems are also used for power re-rolls, which becomes relatively important as you progress. Though my BIGGEST complaint here, is that removing ads on this game costs $8.99. That is ridiculous. And don’t get me started on the “starter packs”. The prices get outright egregious. The game can be fun, but these prices are absurd.2) obvious gate keeping/progression hindering:There are moments where I have every right to progress, and try to crunch the numbers the best I can to beat a boss using my current build. As an example, I found a build that allows me to stack multiple attack speed, evasion, accuracy, general damage buffs, and enemy debuffs (not counting enemy power and gear removal on-hit. I was constantly insta-killed. Even when setting the stage back to a previous boss to farm those buff %s to stack in the millions, and set the stage back to the boss I was having trouble with… for several seconds, the boss evaded absolutely every single attack I gave, until my beefed buffs gave out, and I was once again one-hit K.O.ed.Overall, I think this game would be fun as heck, if not for the previous statements… also the UI DEFINITELY needs some tidying up

The character building in this with the power mechanics combined with equipment is truly unique to any idle game I’ve played before. The game has a real story to tell with fun characters (and I say this only having reached level 51).This game gives you powers and equipment in random order so each run of the game, while taking advantage of the permanent prestige upgrades akin to any idle game, is vastly different from your last.Some runs you’ll prioritize a given stat, or multiply your xp/gold gain, making every run of this game feel like its own unique game. You won’t regret playing it.

The potency cap is just a roadblock for no reason. Make it a softcap, my 1st universe I reached level 10k easy, and coulda went further but I was essentially hardcapped to the gains I was making off like level 3000.. (technically more overkill limit increases gains but its not a great return)Theres also a huge design flaw centered around exponential buffing, being killed the moment an enemy survives a hit (and then has time for swordmanship/ super counter/ omninegation to work). Prebuffing is cheasy but the only effective strat. Poison also doesnt do what it says on the tin, so many superpowers just there w 0 combo (example dodge = do min damage, every agi power gives max damage, when dodge is already a worse build than "get hit" buffs)
