I praised this game in my original review and still maintain that it IS fun… I also wrote that the story, look, and gameplay was fun and absorbing—if not addictive. I praised the Art Department and claimed that “Arthur” seemed very f2p friendly. To a point. Rare heroes level at 60. Legendary heroes max at fifty. The Chapter quests at these levels feature OP creeps 27 levels above your Rare team while the ability to level their gear is difficult without buying stamina, rubies, etc. Example: one needs a lot of in-game gold to fashion equipment and upgrade it all. Also, it takes 50 (!) red orbs to upgrade Legendary fighters at about level 40. Doing fifty fights to get these orbs might net 20 of them… if that many. Leveling heroes between , say 50 and 60, can be done via auto-battles but the stamina (and time) consumption to fight is daunting. In short, payouts at higher levels drop while grinding gains seem infinitesimal. I still maintain that the game totally merits five stars but the grind may burn you out. Free to play folks can prosper but it takes time. Still, this game is superior to many others of its type.

This is wild. Combines every noteworthy aspect of mobile gaming, combines it with an excellent story line, and tops it all off with absolute, out of this world graphics/animations. The tutorial is fluid and easy enough to follow, and so far at least, seems very F2P friendly. Only time will tell I’m sure, but given the incredibly hard work the devs have put in here, I may be inclined to toss a few dollars here and there. Shops in game are necessary after all. These guys have families too. Just hoping progress is at least attainable without it (I.e Rise of Kingdoms). That said, I’m not going anywhere any time soon, and will be playing this a ton. Cheers to you, devs. This is an incredible, award worthy project. Please continue to put effort into this game for years to come.

The game is a step above the rest in regards to aesthetics, graphics, and intuitive gameplay. If I had to describe the experience using existing games, I’d have to say it is a mix of Raid and Final Fantasy but with an Arthurian coat of paint - and the paint shines for sure. While that is the mix, the game is far more F2P friendly and actually has a need for lower rarity characters. They have a place and a purpose, which is refreshing to see.There are interesting systems layered on top of one another regarding equipment, crafting, upgrades, and of course combat. The Equipment and Hero navigation can use some work but the actual systems themselves are quite impressive and extensive.All in all, I highly recommend giving it a shot. Cheers!

There’s a lot to like at first glance (graphics, story, character design - all strong.) Unfortunately, it feels like the designers handed the game off to the D team after launch. New content is slow to materialize and seemingly focused on forcing players to use sub-optimal characters in shameless money grabs. They’ve released four new characters in ~2 months, only one of whom has any tie to the Arthurian source material, and none of whom are particularly impressive. Additionally, all new characters are max rarity, telegraphing pretty clearly that there’s no long/term plan for this IP. This is underscored by a LOT of endgame players leaning already, less than 60 days after launch. In summary, a decent early game, but not a good choice to invest in even (or especially…) if you’re a big fan of King Arthur. There’s a solid and vocal community, so fingers crossed Netmarble starts listening before they all jump ship.
