Welcome, aspiring mage, guardian of Arcane Order, to the realm of Elysia. This mobile RPG places you in the role of a powerful sorceress, tasked with defending the mystical floating city of Elysia from relentless waves of monstrous invaders. Armed with a vast arsenal of spells and the strategic manipulation of enchanted runes, you'll stand as the last line of defense against a growing magical threat.
Runic Empowerment: The core mechanic of Empire Survivor revolves around enchanted runes that materialize around your platform. By tapping, swiping, and holding these runes in specific sequences, you’ll cast a variety of spells. Each rune sequence corresponds to a different spell, offering a strategic depth to combat.
Elemental Mastery: Spells fall under five distinct elemental categories: Fire, Water, Earth, Air, and Arcane. Fire spells deal high damage in a concentrated area, while Water spells offer crowd control and healing. Earth spells create defensive barriers, while Air spells focus on mobility and manipulation. Arcane spells are versatile, offering powerful effects and utility.
Combo Building: Stringing together rune sequences unlocks increasingly powerful spells within the same element. A basic Fire rune sequence might launch a fireball, while a more complex combination could unleash a meteor shower. Mastering these combos becomes crucial in taking down tougher enemies.
Enemy Variety: The monstrous hordes come in all shapes and sizes. From hulking Orcs resistant to physical attacks to nimble Goblins adept at dodging spells, you’ll need to adapt your strategy based on enemy weaknesses and attack patterns.
Boss Battles: Interspersed throughout the waves are epic boss battles against monstrous champions of the encroaching darkness. These encounters require a deep understanding of enemy mechanics, strategic use of elemental combos, and quick reflexes to emerge victorious.
Character Progression: As you defeat enemies and earn experience, your Enchantress will level up, unlocking new spells, upgrading existing ones, and enhancing your overall magical prowess. You can further customize your playstyle by specializing in a particular element or focusing on utility spells.
Equipment and Enchantments: Scattered throughout Elysia are hidden caches containing enchanted equipment. These items can bolster your magical power, enhance specific elemental abilities, or provide passive benefits like increased health or cooldown reduction. Additionally, you can discover powerful enchantments that modify the effects of your spells, allowing for further customization.
Social Features: While Empire Survivor is primarily a single-player experience, there’s a strong social aspect to the game. You can join guilds with other players, share strategies, compete in leaderboards for the highest wave cleared, and even collaborate on special guild challenges.
The Story Unfolds: As you progress through the game, defeating wave after wave of enemies, the narrative unfolds. Fragments of lore are revealed through collectible scrolls and cryptic messages intercepted from enemy forces. You’ll learn about the source of the corruption, the motivations of the enemy leader, and the potential for a hidden prophecy that could turn the tide of the war.
Aesthetics and Soundscape: Empire Survivor boasts a vibrant and colorful art style. Elysia’s floating cityscape is a marvel to behold, bustling with life and pulsating with arcane energy. The enemy designs are grotesque and varied, each creature reflecting its elemental alignment and combat style. The game’s soundtrack is an immersive blend of orchestral music and ambient sounds, swelling with intensity during combat encounters and calming during moments of respite.
Game is fine. Pretty generous for a gacha or maybe because not too much content. Keeps things simple which I like. This is personal but just want to say too much trash mobs. I can’t progress far after 100 waves in endless before crashing. I’m already crashing before level 15 in story. Might have to delete because my phone can’t handle it

I’m really loving this game. Exactly what I was looking for - lots of skill builds, upgrades, and customizations. I’m up to Endless 275 or so and Campaign 22. I have made many purchases in the game and haven’t had any issues getting them as others have experienced, so that’s good.I can’t get past around endless 275 as the game lags and then I lose due to this error about too many monsters on the screen. It’s unfortunate because I still have full HP, it’s just too laggy to kill enough monsters to avoid that condition.Suggestion - allow auto mode to collect the double reward in between matches (for watching ad, but for those with ad blocker purchased). If you are using auto and miss it for the 5 seconds it comes up, you lose out on doubling one time rewards. Or alternatively allow turning off automatically advancing to the next level, but leave auto on for trait upgrades in the game. Right now they seem tied together via the auto mode setting in settings.Suggestion - remember my game speed in between matches. I put it at 4x but every time I start a new level it goes back to 1x.Suggestion - show a heads up menu of how much damage which skills / heroes are doing.Suggestion - endless takes way too long. On 4x it takes over an hour to reach 275. Find a way to speed it up significantly. Maybe cut the levels by 10 fold, so level 27 is the new 270, but increase the damage and health of lower levels significantly. Endless should only take like 5-10 minutes. Bug - this game takes over your phone’s audio even with sound turned off in the game.Bug - if you put auto upgrades in a campaign on a trait that maxed out like range, once it is maxed, the auto mode still tries to buy it over and over and uses your silver. This results in a deadlock with no upgrades occurring.

In-App Purchases Broken

DO NOT MAKE ANY IN-APP PURCHASES UNTIL THE DEVELOPER FIXES THE ISSUES WITH THEIR IN GAME STORE. Played the game for a while and enjoyed it. Decided to support the dev and purchase No Ads. Got a “invalid receipt” message, had a charge on my card, but still have ads in the game. Apparently I’m not the only one who has made a purchase and not received it. It seems to be a widespread issue with reports of people being charged, in some cases multiple times, from trying to get a single purchase to go through. The developer responds by telling people to contact them through Facebook for resolution to the issue, which makes the whole thing seem super sketchy. Very disappointed as it is otherwise an entertaining game. I highly recommend against making any purchases until the app is updated to fix these purchase issues.

Hello. We are very sorry for the inconvenience. We are trying our best to find the root of this issue but it may take time because it is also related to Apple, not only our dev. The reason why we need our players contact to us first is also because of Apple's privacy policy. We really hope that you can contact us so we can assist in returning your pack, sir. Hope you understand us.
Lost paid packages and profile. 1 week no response from support

Game is a 4/5. Card system and special abilities are really good but doesn’t stand out too much after that and hero abilities and star ups are very copycat and paste.Came back because it looks like there might be new content but logged in to a blank account, tried my google account just in case to nothing as well. My account not only was very late game but I bought packages as well in hopes the game would grow so the only support option the game gives is a feedback/ support option but with a week of no responses in-game, through the IOS account or email (spam or otherwise). Losing content I paid for and no response from support is very very bad sign for this game and I can’t recommend spending if a game can’t guarantee their save files or paid content.
