After playing for over 2000 days I can finally right a review. Once you clear everything and reach end game the game becomes stale. The only content you have is the Egg Machine/Gacha and Arena. There really isn’t much else to do in this game once you reach the top. Just run the same dungeons over and over and spend on the Gacha for stuff that you will probably not use. They have monthly dungeons you can do but even those are just the same dungeons every month. The events that they bring are mostly the same. Farm the materials from a dungeon and exchange them for either cards or other materials. The Ranking dungeons are mostly RNG and are annoying to play, but it’s a nice feeling when you get a crown score. You don’t even need to spend in this game, it’s definitely free to play friendly it’s just the lack of content and stuff to do becomes so boring end game that the only content there is is the Gacha. I think I’m giving this a fair rating just because the game deserves it. It’s been around for so long and I think it’s reaching its limit soon. It’s been fun playing 3p and 2p with my friends but I won’t be playing anymore. It was fun while it lasted. I hope everyone enjoys the game as much as I did. Cya.

Game is excellent but the friend system needs work

I have little to complain about this game and highly recommend it, but sometimes I am very frustrated by the friend system. Essentially you cannot play most dungeons unless you have a helper. This means that if you don’t have a second account or are in possession of that monster in duplicate, you are reliant on the friend system by which you use the monsters of other people and add them hoping they will accept you.Most of the time, if my play has been interrupted or reduced in quality, it is by this system. Even if I spent magic stones to increase the friend number, the suggestions made by the game are often abysmal. Instead of offering you options that you can use, it will present you with anything but what you need. Tossing money at it doesn’t help, you still have to wait for the game to offer you new helper monsters. This can sometimes take a while before anything useful pops up and completely take the fun out of playing.I can understand limiting a players choices according to what they are willing to spend, but in this case even liberal spenders are prevented from playing if they choose to only have one account. I would recommend a change in this system and hope it improves in the future.

The game very pretty balanced, and they will keeping adding new contents to keep things interesting, and they are very kind. They give players gifts! Last month or two, they game 100 gems, and now they gave 100 again! They just give you the gems and you get to choose what you want to do with them, but most players with just spend the gems on the dragonbound event. They also do collaborations with different anime! I would recommend this game, but it depends on you if your willing to spend your time playing it. I have been playing this game for almost 3 years, and in the beginning, I only used 5$, but it is unnecessary, since it is so easy to get gems now! You just need to know when to roll and create teams that work well with each other. There are also tutorials or examples of how to beat dungeons. Also, some cards sometime won’t be as strong as others in one dungeons, so that’s why you have to sometime make the best team within you collections to beat that dungeon. I truly enjoy this game but sadly, the Japanese server seems to get the better deal then the US server. I have no problem with that, but I still think it would just be easier to just have the contents as one. But overall, this is a great game.

I’ve seen more than a few comments flaming this game but, like others have said, it’s not for casuals. If you can put in the effort, it becomes worth your time and is extremely rewarding to clear some of the tougher dungeons. I’m still only around Lvl 170 and I can’t claim to have been playing for very long but I still have a great lineup for a team. Remember to always save up for events like godfest and monster hunter. DO NOT ROLL on other events, as many think the egg machines will give you good leaders no matter what, but it’s a complete trap to make you use up your eggs and thus take longer to progress. It also helps to do 2 player dungeons. I have a few friends who have carried me through dungeons I would never be able to complete on my own and that helps speed up the team building process as well. Look up events online and most definitely get a companion app for this game. I got Pad guide and it works great (free). Over all, remember to not give up and grind out the normal dungeons even though they may not seem worth it. Their point is to give gems, not monsters. SELL EVERYTHING but monsters you look up and will lead to a solid team lineup. You can farm for materials when the need arises.
