Steam reviews

What players say

Mostly positive among players, who like its easy hack-and-slash loop, but many find the gem-based monetisation and grind a serious drawback.

Many players enjoy the simple, relaxing hack-and-slash combat, the loot chase and the wide range of builds, and several like playing across PC and phone. The complaints centre on the monetisation: many reviewers say progress is gated behind gems that are slow to earn for free and expensive to buy, and that the game feels like a pay-to-win slot machine. Some players also find the content repetitive once the story is finished, with few levels and a lot of grind for the best gear. Others point to the port from mobile, with weak keyboard and mouse controls, lag, and occasional crashes or sync problems. Some reviewers say the balance between classes is uneven, especially in PvP. Several reviews from the last year are more critical than Steam's overall rating suggests.

Praised

  • Relaxing hack-and-slash combat

    Players find the fast, straightforward combat easy to pick up and satisfying to play in short sessions.

    Many players
  • Loot and build variety

    Players enjoy the many classes, skills and equipment choices that allow different builds and steady character growth.

    Many players
  • Playable across PC and phone

    Reviewers like continuing progress on another device and playing in short breaks or waiting times.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Gems-based pay-to-win

    Reviewers say chests, upgrades and progress require gems, which are slow to earn for free and costly to buy.

    Many players
  • Repetitive content and grind

    Players say the story is short, levels repeat, and the best gear takes a long grind to obtain.

    Many players
  • Weak port from mobile

    Reviewers mention poor keyboard and mouse controls, lag, crashes and a small, dated presentation.

    Some players
  • Unbalanced classes and PvP

    Players say certain classes are far stronger than others, and that PvP matches are broken or unfair to melee players.

    Some players
Who it suits
Suits players who want a light, relaxed action RPG for short sessions and do not mind spending little or no money.
Who should skip it
Should be skipped by players who expect a deep, polished ARPG or who dislike gem-based purchases and repetitive grinding.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with under 20 hours are mixed, often praising the easy start but noticing the gem costs; players with 20 to 200 hours mostly recommend it, though they more often mention repetitive late-game content and grind.
