Solo Leveling:Arise ١٢+

You want to k ow why I said YES and downloaded this game? At the time, NOT A SINGLE online resource including the original manhwa nor the anime could answer for me the question: *”Just How many Statues does Sung Jinwoo first encounter in the famous Double Dungoen!?”* Lucky for me, NETMARBLE shares the answer in the story’s beginning: the answer is 22 statues total all together (including the giant and the death angel with the dungeon’s rules)! HA! Thanks NETMARBLE! This is truly An incredibly fun game and they are doing a fantastic job with every update for the mobile version. I have been playing for a month now and I only just discovered there is also a PC Version of this same game. I can’t praise this game enough. I love that it’s free to play and gives the options for generous paid-play-bonuses, but not the requirements to “pay to play” or subscriptions that seems nearly every other competitive popular mobile game is doing today. The good folks and developers over at NETMARBLE have done a truly top-tier, “The Very Top Of Their Class” job with SOLO LEVELING ARISE and I hope everyone has as much fun playing as I have!

First need to address how it seems how the App Store seems to be hiding this gem. Should be top 5 in many categories but it’s not even listed in any of them. Great new game especially since I’m into the manhua and the anime. Has some issues on mobile, that I don’t see happening to reviewers using pc, that took away a star. Biggest issues are special attacks not landing, camera angle doing what it wants, attacks going after the wrong enemy, artifact’s abilities seeming sabotaged, target lock applying to everyone except the target in front of me, and target lock disengaging. Also, later content demanding 100k champ pwr levels to complete but the items needed to level up to that pwr level beyond to hard to get and It’s not even purchasable. Which forces me to only be able level up 3 to 5 characters out of 25. So 20 champs stuck at 50-60k pwr level are in a useless purgatory. Because I can’t raise their power levels I can’t use them. Why even put them in the game if we can’t use them. Besides those issues I’m loving all the other aspects of the game. Pros to the game are weapons, character drawing system, adherence to story, road map through the game, strategy needed to complete fights, plethora of content, fighting mechanics, challenges, and I love how jinwoo is a set character (no need to unlock him.) They have something special with this game. Worth playing even with the issues imo.

Yea not really a fan of the level requirements for stages. It’s restricting and makes the game less enjoyable. It also makes the game slow paced and boring. Still a really good game and the graphics are beautiful but still really don’t like level requirement for stages. It makes no sense why it would be there other than to force players to pay for diamonds to get more keys for gates or passes for more activity funds or be forced to fall behind while waiting for keys to play gates and collect activity funds just to catch up. Don’t restrict it so they are forced to wait even though they are way above required power level. Even if your power level isn’t enough, it shows that you can strategize around it and beat a level that is meant for when you are stronger. It would be wonderful if this system would be removed and let players play the game. Your game will die off because it’s boring and people don’t want to pay just to progress in the story or gameplay. Even if you have wonderful graphics it, doesn’t matter if your dumb level system outweighs it. No games with this type of level requirements for stages system last long. Just a thought to make your game more enjoyable and not make players feel forced to pay real money to progress.
