Been playing since thanksgiving and bought the booster and a few of the cheap packs ($40 total spent). I have a daily average of ~1 hour and it’s great. People complain about how slow it is but it’s a mobile game and you’re suppose to play it slow. Like during your lunch break or when you’re sitting on the toilet or when you’re in the parking lot of market basket and you tell your spouse that it’s super busy inside but you just wanna get away from your two toddlers. I’ve bought games for consoles and PCs for more than I’ve spent on this game and they have been significantly worse. Sure, there’s bugs. Okay, yes, whales (people that spend a lot on micro-transactions) ruin your PvP experience, but that doesn’t happen unless you’re good at PvP and over 3k rated. Also, PvP is like 1/4 the game. The campaign is great and the dungeons are great. Except the second boss of Gnomeregan, god, electrocutioner 6000 is a see you next Tuesday. I do not understand the mentality of people who spend money on mobile games or complain about having to spend money on mobile games. You are literally paying money to finish the game faster. Isn’t the whole point to waste time so you don’t have to think about how the awful reality is? Anyways 7/5 with rice

I had high hopes for this game. I’ve been playing Clash Royale since it came out and I’ve been looking for something to replace it. I thought this game would be it but unfortunately it is not. From the get go it barely piqued my interest and I felt I had to power through the tutorial. Barely any explanation as to how counters work or what the card types are. You pretty much just keep spamming cards until someone spams more. The only level of strategy is the miner you put out to get more gold in order to out spam your opponent. Personal gripe here that I can’t see the whole battlefield at once and have to constantly keep scrolling around, makes hard to really anticipate and play your opponent. Game loop is this; place a troop, scroll up to see enemy, oh they played a card in this lane, scroll down, place my card in that same lane to fight their card, scroll up, oh they placed another card in another lane, scroll down, place a card in that lane, repeat this process for the next 3 minutes until someone wins. The other sad part is that I’m early on and I can already see how the micro transactions will only get worse the longer you play. The game is quick to shove a bunch of progression at you at the beginning to make you feel good but that will wear off and the real progress will rely on how much you’re willing to pay. The game is still on my phone but each time I open it I lose all motivation to play.
