PUZZLE & DRAGONS 0 4+

For the experience PAD player wondering what the differences are like me:

There is no Gatcha in this game. Instead you level up monsters and collect their gems to evolve up a splitting evolution tree.

Monster get awakenings by leveling and there and monster leader skills have been replaced by a team skill that you can level up as you progress.

It is still stamina based but you can watch an ad to refresh
You can play ads to double drop rate and can play ads at the end to double the drops.
2 things can be purchased both for 9.99. One is unlimited mode that makes it so you don’t have to watch ads but get all the bonuses it basically unlocks it from F2P.
The other is a speed up function that is supposed to make the dungeons faster but not sure of the specifics since I didn’t buy it.

Overall very fun but runs the battery of my phone down pretty quick.

I am a long-time fan of the original Puzzle and Dragons, both for it’s simple premise and vast array of unique character designs. The gameplay is simple; match three or more orbs of an attribute to build up an attack with said attribute. The more dungeons you beat, the more monsters, coins, and occasionally “magic stones” you earn, both to receive new monsters and to evolve your existing roster. I was never a huge fan of the micro transactions and the gambling aspects of the game, but the collabs with pop culture properties were fun and something to look forward to.

This game takes all of the charm and effort of the original and flushes it down the toilet. The look of the game is sanitized and corporate, not nearly as visually exciting as its predecessor, and the tutorial treats its players as though they’re babies, despite no one but PAD Classic fans being the most willing to stick their necks out for this game. If you don’t like PAD Classic’s Story Mode, you will hate this game. The 3D rendered environments are rushed, low resolution, and lazy, and lack any and all charm the original had. The starter monster designs are pointlessly contrived. The only saving grace this game has is the “Monster Creation” evolution mechanic. That’s it.

Just play the original.

Great game it’s boring at first but get super advanced later on and they do have rainbow dragons and stuff and limited time dungeon events as well and super hard mode and very grindy you won’t be able to experience this till later on if you are free to play it’s going to take u months and weeks to get to the point if u spend 10 or 20$ you can have months of progress in 2 days and spendin10$ gives u unlimited sea permanent without stamina it’s definitely worth it
