Beautifully animated, with a story actually worth following. looking forward to finding out if it holds up to the incredibly strong start. EDIT: story drops off almost immediately, and beginning to run into hard walls in terms of energy to continue grinding. Still not the worst out there, but definitely showing signs of a poor experience.

This game had me hooked right away, I even spent about $30 for extras the first week. However, within the next few days I hit a wall in pretty much all progression. I have to grind for materials to level up my heroes, and being destroyed in even the regular campaign levels. This has drained my enthusiasm for the game, and I seriously hesitate to spend anything more when my last few purchases have hardly helped me advance. I'm an experienced gamer, something is seriously wrong with the mechanics.

It's the same ol' story. You don't pay you can't play. These summon type games don't have a non-spending option to get the heroes (4* and up) to succeed (even with spending it's a gamble). After the first couple of level/stage it's just plain frustration. It's a shame, because with fair access to better heroes to everyone it would be an awesome game. But the money part -as always- ruins everything.

Fun challenging game! The level of difficulty gradually hits the anecdotal paywall, but that's when you need to decide if you're going to pay, or invest your time in grinding to improve your warriors. I've seen a lot of improvents in the UI and events over the past few months. However, last night's update is negatively affecting the app's performance (most noticeable during the battle sequence). Still playable, but it does affect the level of enjoyment of what is otherwise a great game.

Totally not what I expected. The game is definitely not F2P friendly, the progress is slow right from the start. Action Points? They eat much of it. Even levelling up characters has become a chore. It gives you the task to log in daily just to give you free exp just to level up your champions. Despite of that, I like the gameplay. Hence, three stars.

Only good thing about this game is the art!! I get a loading screen (Connecting...) every time I click on ANYTHING on the screen. Even if I'm just checking messages, or seeing achievements, or checking out my roster of heroes... EVERY DAMN TIME that "Connecting..." screen shows up in these transitions, and it takes a full friggin minute to go away. Seriously disappointed at this game's server and connectivity issues. It will piss you off so bad that you too will uninstal. Hard pass!

Storyline is good. I don't like that you must match at the physical area of the enemy to hit them. There is no real indication for turn length. Matching combos don't carry over to the next wave but get wasted instead. There is no real indication of enemy type. Overall the gameplay is basic but terrible and the animations during fights take away from the overall fight.

With the recent update, the game crashed when I activated 2 special attacks on the same turn. The problem? I lost the energy for the campaign stage I was playing. It's a dealbreaker. I hope it can be fixed; otherwise I'd feel sad for having spent on the game. Also, the game is nothing like the ads I've seen....

storywise it's really good. But like every app it's a pay as you go game. You got to put money in it in order to advance as fast as you want. there are freebies and you don't have to pay for anything. It just takes up energy. also the voice characters are pretty loud. I can tell that some of them are.. newer to the art of voice overs lol. other than that I do like the artwork and the heroes.

It's ok, but once you use up your energy, there's really nothing to do. Most of the packages you can purchase are also overpriced as hell and offer so little in return. The gameplay is pretty basic, though the art looks good, and the story is generic but decent. Overall, if you're looking for a short passtime it's fun, just don't expect much else.

Very entertaining. Basically like all other match 3 fantasy games, but this one is improved by having voice actors! No, really! And it has dragons you need to care for. The graphics are really nice. Not as "itty bitty" as other versions. *Update*:The voices go away after a while. Boo! It all ended up getting too confusing, and so I uninstalled it. The two "OG" Small Giant games still give pleasure, and MythWars is ok too, for no pay out peeps.

It's one of the best mobile games I've ever played. The only complain is that I wish there was more energy to play the game. Game time is too stingy, and I know that the more i level up, the more energy I get, but still, it's too little. They don't even have ads option to get more energy. You can progress without paying but just need LOTS OF PATIENCE to wait for those energy to fill up lol

The game is fun, has a nice art style und keeps you engaged with the typical upgrade and progression systems. Going to play more. //Edit: After a bit more time. The PvP is the worst I have ever seen in any game. Arena or Guild Wars. They are dominated by overpowered heroes... Or worse... Just random luck or the lack of. World PvP in any mmorpg is more fun and balanced. Just that this here is no fun at all. Also the walls in PvE can be quite annoying but nothing you can't solve.
noname245413, the 07/04/2022

Typical pay to win game. Challenges, and campaign levels that are next to impossible to beat without spending. Level objectives stay the same regardless of difficulty level. If you want to have a decent experience be prepared to spend. Such a shame. The game has a ton of potential.
noname178579, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
Updated review 4 to 5 stars after playing. Devs have done something great here. It is largely pay to win still (like any similar game) but it does it so much more generously. Guaranteed 5star heroes after 85 summons, solid season passes, well priced gem passes. Huge variety of heroes. Upgrading heroes is difficult but doesn't feel too sluggish. Campaign is very challenging and you are left stuck for long periods but with all challenge events there is loads to do. I encourage devs to keep going!
noname329536, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
Extremely P2W. The game is fun in the beginning, but it quickly starts to take weeks, sometimes more than a month, to get the necessary ascension items to increase a hero's level cap. Same goes for weapons. So you'll quickly get stuck at fights you're too underleveled to beat and then spend a month grinding to progress, only to quickly get stuck again five fights later. Unless you open your wallet, of course. The game has no ads, but is riddled with "limited time" offers for IAPs. Edit after response: Why can't you "take note of my feedback" here?
noname47606, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
It's a great game and I love playing it. I HATE "fighting" in the arena. Unless you fighting someone at least 3 levels below you, it's impossible to win. You only get 1 move, and unless things fall just right you only get that move while other player gets to use all their heros to attack. You can't do anything while they're attacking. It also takes forever to level up any hero once you get to 120 because you need so many of each item that you can only get from defeating titans once a day.
noname31859, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
This is definitely pay to play, or at least to get to the top. Very well created if you like match and rpg. Character skills could use a boost, doesn't appear that the level of the skill increases anything like damage or avoidance. It should be easier to summon 4u00265 star characters, if your gonna charge us unlock all of the characters. #whatiwantinagame

this game is awesome, characters have great skills but, items can be bought or farmed. the problem with this type of games is the animation! the animation is amazing but so so so slow and long and there's no option without it if you're not bothered to lose a bunch of times because the animation takes the fight time, this is the game for you!

________________________________________________
Nice RPG game with combination of Match-3 puzzle and building simulator. Developers has done really great job on gameplay, story narration, heroes' background stories. The game is mostly bug free and offers many events along with alliance war to upgrade your heroes. The only issue I have is that the game is different than what was shown in ads and screenshots on Playstore. Nice promotional startegy but it would have been awesome if the game also contains mini puzzles as shown in ads.

Super easy to play. In a quest to waste my life at times this does the trick. Similar to the other games in the genre, but the art work and effects are more eye-catching.The characters are awesome, everyone with their unique bio, some of them are really dramatic, which shocked me at first! Need to mention that it's been very nice to players early on too. A good introduction to the main plot, which teaches new players very quickly and makes it clear how to play. Although, the rewind function for experienced players would be quite useful. Devs team you should think about adding one!

I have enjoyed playing this game. The strategic moves you make to achieve goals in the game are both time consuming but a whole lot of addictive fun. A few draw backs though. You don't get 5 star characters using the daily free option. You get the up to 4 star and a lot of repetive 2 and 3 start which awaken the characters. Once you upgrade the characters to level 120, it's impossible to upgrade them without spending money. The graphics are good but some of the voices are a bit creepy.
noname778170, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
Great sound and animations, more involved story than other match 3 hero games. Overall more fun than similar games. Still just as much a game based on microtransactions and incentives to spend again and again but you can still play and enjoy totally for free if you're not competitive with other players and just playing to have some fun. After playing more. I'm constantly getting "connecting..." pop up on the screen halting play for 15-20 seconds at a time. Making it hard to enjoy the game now.
noname597106, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
While the game felt intimidating to learn at first, I caught on by playing a little at a time. People complain about not being able to level up, but if you are here to seek instant gratification, there is a pay option. For the others who enjoy the play, this game is actually quite generous with its reward system such that people can progress with no money. It just takes time. A "sell" feature would be nice but a graphically and musically beautiful game that is actually very memorable and fun.
noname524193, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
This is one of the best match RPGs I've seen, interface and graphics are great, cool style, and they definitely put alot of work into the story and hero backgrounds, which most of these games don't. Usually they start out with a story and it last 5 levels then it's just forgotten. So good job there. The reason I am giving it 3 stars is the pay wall. The WORST pay wall I've seen. Literally you get to a point where even after dropping hundreds of dollars you can't advance. Really frustrating.
noname799849, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
Fun, and I'll rate it 5 later if that doesn't change. Edit: still very fun, and there's plenty to do, but there is a definite wall. Presumably, you should be able to progress up to the point where the level power and yours are the same, and you just have to play enough times and correct to get past...don't look for this to happen. You will need to slowly grind out the reagents to level up through events etc before you are even close to getting them in the campaign. Can be done for free though.

Very fun and easy to play, yet involved enough to hold interest, honesty time fly fast. Don't lose yourself too much in it! Game has an amazing soundtrack too! Reminds me of the one from LOTR! A nice mix of the genres, well put together, and this isn't so common in such games. My respects to the development team. Sometimes there are difficult, challenging battles but the final reward fit for the challenge. So don't hesitate and give this one a go, believe me you won't regret it.

At first the game worked fine, then recently it started crashing and freezing. It's very frustrating. it freezes at the 3rd min mark during the hard challenges. It happened a few times. In another instance I used a Tear of Ancestors to summon a hero and got an error msg that said invalid parameter and didn't get the hero. I sent a note to tech support and I'm getting the run around. Just replace replace the thing u0026 stop wasting time. Worst part was it froze during Alliance War got 0 points.

________________________________________________
Tutorial is taking a long time but story is interesting Edit: story is still good, but considering how long the tutorial is - not a lot of features are actually explained. I've played similar games in the past and while this one holds my attention better it is also much slower paced. Can't wait to be able to play some more in a few hours...
noname997543, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
The core game it self is ok, once you get to the 4th check point of the game it gets really hard to progress. You drain your stamina so fast and you regain it really slowly to where you can play the game for about 5 minutes and your done. The hero progression is absurd and makes no sense to me. Why can't we just get the item we need to level our heros. The summoning is the biggest scam I have ever seen. The rewards for clearing hard level are extremely low. Not worth playing.

Novel ideal for an adventure / puzzle game. have noticed a few small bugs or oops in the game so far, such as getting the red dot on like the castle, but open it up and there's nothing to indicate what to select. or coming to a flash back and not knowing it till you try to make an option that's not allowed
noname740335, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
Not even two hours into this game and I'm already waiting on timers and constantly running out of energy. This game is very stingy with important resources and it becomes a problem very quickly. Difficulty ramps up fast, so you have to level up characters, which means grinding stages. But sweep tickets are scarce and energy is frustratingly low. Nope. Not putting up with that nonsense, not matter how good the artwork is.

After 3 days, I'm already obsessed! Great game. Much prettier u0026 intuitive than Eu0026P, whose UI is so crowded I can't find anything. I hope we have some uses for 2 star heroes in the future ) Maybe exclusive challenges u0026 so on, or the possibility to evolve them. So far, this is the only thing that upsets me in this game that I can't properly give them a try. I'm really enjoying this game. Thanks for giving me something to do on my off time during the pandemic. Helps to forget about everyday problems for a while.

Brilliant game, wonderful graphics, lovely music, ascending heroes is my new mission in life. But I’m about a week in and found the champion mode a bit too challenging at time. I do like the alliance events a lot and hope to see more of it, maybe we can even get BOSS or training arena. And please add some new levels to the Tower of Courage and the main campaign! So far the game has been good, just need feew more optimizations. But believe me, f2p is absolutely possible in that game, just need some time!
noname399819, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
Simply put: beautiful graphics, ordinary mechanics, non-existent story, slow gameplay, expensive. While graphically astounding, in the end it is but an expensive clone of Empiresu0026Puzzles: a nondescript storyline, a simple, borderline primitive, Match-3 core, same 3+2 elements synergy. The dragon system is cool, but not actually a gamechanger, also upon seeing its animation for 10th time you want a way to turn it off. Then, the paywall is so close that you barely have any time to enjoy the game for free.
noname746246, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
The game is a lot of fun, the energy gain is really slow, but that at least gives down time. My biggest issue really is the pop aspect, while optional of course, it does give bonuses to do it. However I've noticed the AI's mana gain is so incredibly fast that I almost require a full team of fast mana gain to have a chance. This becomes extremely transparent when the mana gain increases for both sides, and the AI team is using 4 abilities to my 1
noname202690, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
so far so good. haven't hit a paywall yet, though it's still early Edit: wow, level 3 and the pay wall has arrived. It's fun, but only if you want to spend money. Otherwise, you'll need patience and basically barely be able to actually pay the game while waiting and waiting to gather enough material to level up your characters. Or you get really lucky in the Raid rip off summoning. Either way, I wouldn't recommend to non paying players. You've got too much money, then by all means... spend!

I've loved this game since I started playing. Very enjoyable one, not too hard, but not too easy either. It's so relaxing to fight against a bunch of monsters before starting the day or after work. Often both by the way. Can say that I'm hooked on it!❤️ ⚔️ It’s a beautiful merging of a few different old mobile games I used to play heavily, however, the design is more pleasing to the eye, so well done team! Quickly give me new heroes and please easy the way to get 5* heroes and weapons. Good luck!

I've seen a few people complaining that it's too hard to progres even after spending lots of money on the game. I'm hear to tell you that is NOT true. This has been the first mobile game I've actually played and I'm still loving it. You have to grind to amass resources but the daily missions and campaign are pretty generous and allot of fun! I've totalled 2×5 star heroes, over a million gold and leveling potions, 4 star weapons so far. It's doable and fun!

________________________________________________
So after playing this game for a while here are some pros and cons. Pro: Great graphics, good game play, challenging, plenty to do. Cons: like most gotchas the draw rate sucks, it's hard to earn gems to draw, and takes a bit to level up if you plan to play for free. It's doable, just takes a while to level up.
noname996937, the 07/04/2022
________________________________________________
Fun at first because you easily progress. But after a week, heroes are too weak and the requirements to strengthen them are far ahead in the campaign. Without paying, you quickly get stucked there is no other way to raise your heroes around level 120. Purely a pay to play. Don't waste your time. Pure copy of puzzle and conquest, the city is exactly the same pixel by pixel. Very stingy, they give close to no Diamond and heroes draw. Uninstall.

have to say this is probably the most fun of these type of games that I've tried, always plenty to do, but saying that sometimes feels like there's just too many quest rewards to collect, constantly having to click things to collect can get very frustrating. would be better if they just sent these things direct to your mailbox or something.

Cheating is running rampant now.I had 5 toons over level 200 totally maxed out and my entire team got 1 shotted by a single toon (not a team) level 187 that literally should NOT be possible, 1 round and it was over, all my toons did 0 damage to him and he wiped me out in 1 turn. that's ridiculous. and yes I was using the right team combo, I ended up fighting him 3 times and every time it's the same thing. I can't damage him at all and he 1 shots 5 of my toons.

The best match 3 rpg that I've ever played! I especially appreciate the gorgeous character designs, immersive gameplay, and creative world building.

noname690316, the 18/09/2025
________________________________________________
they have extremely-poor balancing mechanics, it's one thing to have a carefully curated team that has great synergy and then another thing altogether when a SINGLE character can destroy the opposition, due to a PASSIVE trait, and this character dominates the PvP scene. yeah, that's fun for a mobile pvp game. FIRE YOUR DESIGN TEAM!

I am a returning player after 2 years and my account that was linked to the Google play account was gone (when I tried to link it "IP not found"). This is unacceptable since it should not have happened in the first place but let's roll with it. I sent a ticket to the support in detail almost everything that was asked from me and even though they were polite they were irresponsible answering me every few days. Update: They answered after one month only saying they are sorry for being late.

The actors in the commercials/ads can't even get the name of the promotion gimmick character correct. Having an in-game clause that is mandatory to agree to, which contains policy and privacy issues doesn't bode well either. This isn't a social media site. It's a video game. Developers get money and the consumer plays because it's fun. That's all there is or needs to be. Though for some reason most match three type games seem to be more screws to the player than anything else in the store.

After playing this game for years, spending time and money developing characters, teams, and strategies, all of my progress has been wiped. I took a break for a few months and just picked it up again. It gave me the option of staying on my server or switching to a new server. No where did it ever indicate that all my characters would be lost if I switched to a new server. It's irreversible and I'm pissed. Game is uninstalled and I will never play again.

This has the potential to be a great game. Sadly, it falls short I've lost interest in continuing. It takes too long to level. I suppose if you have boatloads of money it might be fun. I have already spent all I am willing to spend. If you're downloading this for diamonds on Design Home, don't bother. The rewards are unachievable; be faster to just buy diamonds! Download something else It's too bad really. I liked the game but not enough to stay.

I've been playing this game for a while. Yes, there are in-app purchases, but there are many in-game ways to get resources you need. The game is very strategic with the team-building aspect. This isn't your normal gems game. It requires some thought about which matches give you an advantage without giving the AI an advantage. The game is slow in the beginning since you won't have many heroes, but in time you get better heros and can increase their power and effectiveness. All in all, an amazing rpg game.
noname848657, the 18/09/2025
________________________________________________
Game started fine: a match 3 game with gacha system. The characters are ok looking, nothing too exciting. The main currency is so scarce that it becomes boring to play. The main selling point is the gacha and the amount of time used for getting the resources to do it is just not worth it, as there are no guarantees. Bored since day 1 because the progress is way too slow. 2 stars because of the artwork and music, but outside of it, the mechanics are not common but they are not fun either...
noname955918, the 18/09/2025
________________________________________________
Really good game, the best of this type that I've played, however the pay walls are many and obvious. The greed is palpable. How you can go from comfortably getting through one campaign stage to have no chance of killing one of the 5 enemies before you makes no sense. This dynamic crops up all over the place in things like the tower for example. You will reach a point where you can only progress by throwing a lot of money at it. I'm at that point...
noname513751, the 18/09/2025
________________________________________________
The game is alright, the artwork is great. It's difficult to acquire the resources needed to make your characters stronger, leaving you unable to advance in the game. It would also be nice if the gameplay was more similar to what is shown on the advertisement, i.e. being able to see more of the characters during battle. I feel the advertisement is misleading in that department

I am sharing my thoughts here to support Call of Antia because it is really an amazing game! The graphics and animations are beautiful, and there is lots of stuff to do in the game. I enjoy the Alliance War, very exciting!The thing I enjoy the most of the game is, when I spend a little but beat those who spend a lot. It doesnt happen very often but it's possible. And when it does, it's a highlight. This game is where it's possible. A lot of people focus on how big spenders have better characters to build up a team with high power. But with good tactics and strategy, you dont have to alwasy lose. Remember that in a pvp battle, you are the one controlling the whole thing because you got to do the match three. If you think carefully, you have the advantage here because your naya stones are your bonus. Choose your moves carefully, and make great combos can cause huge damages to your enemies. Luck is invoved too and that makes it more fun play. Sometimes you could get some really good colors coming after a huge combo. Just be smart. So my point is, you don't have to play p2w to win in this game. Why not give it a try?

This game is pretty good. But I do have a few hitters that bugs me. When I go to do gold and exp quests the game freezes saying connecting. Now I know for a straight fact it's not on my end when I have high speed internet. I never had this issue with any game before till now. If possible you guys should fix that bug asap. I would give this game a better rating if that bug is fixed.

This game is very well polished and the characters are great. I bought the season pass but felt it lacked depth and complexity. Plus I find it super frustrating because there are very unbalanced heroes that are abused in PvP. Finally, the Halloween event only really had one costume, which is silly because you don't really see your own characters. I've stopped playing unfortunately.
noname905144, the 18/09/2025

I initially had a great time with this one and love the gameplay. Unfortunately once your characters hit level 120 you hit a massive paywall (you need ascension items that only appear rarely and randomly without paying money for them) and all progress grinds to a halt. It's a shame. I want to keep playing this game, but I'm giving it up because I'm not willing to spend a month to break a single character past the 120 threshold without paying.
noname385269, the 18/09/2025
________________________________________________
It is a good game, nice graphics, nice game play but has a huge issue, requires a lot of real money in order to update characters, weapons etc. Rewads are low, free stuff is minimum, almost everything is minimum and if you need to enjoy playing, you need to use real money. Impossible to enjoy it without having to pay for everything. Advice: change your policy, make this playable without using money.

Good game, but doesn't give you much time to do event and they sometimes cheat by putting a timer on your fights. They make the game hard at times and is hard to beat boards or level up fighters. This is a very lame game. I have been playing it for awhile but still haven't got any new characters. They keep giving doubles or triples, but all the characters are leveled up, so I can't go to far.
