Fixed a stuck state where if you closed the game while having won a game on the game over screen, it would get soft locked on the opening screen. Join our Discord community: https://discord.gg/XCMUfbqkXn

It's a good game, original concept...but without the multiplayer aspect, what are we even playing for?...it just becomes sad and redundant...cos no matter how good or bad ur strategy is, the algorithm always adjusts to that and the outcome is always averaged...there is no human aspect, where you can come up with certain strategies and pitch them up against real players to find out how they fare...all in all, a good concept but doesn't achieve anything sadly...😒

Pros : no forced ads, daily quest for those who loves grinding, simple yet complex (many combos and item placement). Cons : NO TUTORIAL. After more areas unlocked, it becomes difficult to get items you need, heavily dependent on luck. Maybe a gradually bigger store?? Unique items will make or break your game. Some chars only have one or two combos to get 15 wins, so if you miss that one item, it's a guaranteed defeat. Last one, this game eats a lot of battery!!

Probably didn't give it a fair shot, but i started, went straight into the tutorial with the first hero. Filled my bag with stuff, lost due to unexplained reasons, accidentally clicked a button to watch an ad because it's so obnoxiously placed, closed the app and then just uninstalled it because it was such a poor first experience. To be honest the combat was so automated that I don't think i would have enjoyed it. I like actual strategy.

Very addicting game. Monetization is pretty predatory however. You can unlock everything in game with currency earned over time but it will take a while. Ads are everywhere but they're optional. They incentivize watching ads by giving you a single life, premium and normal currency and refreshing quests. Be ready to watch a lot of ads if you want to advance. Other than that it's a pretty weird game to have progression in since those who pay or have played longer will dominate newbies most times.

Addictive and great game! Simple and yet it needs a strategic placements... But there's still room for improvement : 1. Batery draining problem (batery usage likely equal to a MOBA type of games), 2. Switching for greater bagpack is a hassle, we need to remove items in the bag(s) first 3. When we still have little filled slots, adds a turn button (clockwise and counter clockwise). For easier moving all of the items and bags Thank you for the great game!

I was having a blast until I hit level 4. Now 99% of my fights are against people with items I've never seen, let alone have access to. People with 90 armor and 3 different weapons when I have access to only a shield and wrench. It's near impossible to make any kind of progress like this. Otherwise I love the gameplay and aesthetic and I don't even think the ads get in the way.

First off this app is a lot of fun, but the micro transactions are getting ridiculous. $5 per character is already pushing it but now they want to charge $3 a week to skip ads. That's absurd. I would gladly pay $3 once to unlock an ad free mode, not everything needs to be a subscription. I'd rather go buy the full game this is a knock off of than sign up for another subscription (Backpack Battles on Steam). I will continue to play for now, as I enjoy playing this on the go

Day 2 player here. The game is hella fun with huge variety of builds to experiment with! It's quite timegated though but it gives some sense of progression, and allows players to focus levelling on the preferred builds. However, the choice of card is still somehwat random. Suggestion to the dev: Implement some mechanics to let players narrow down on the choice of cards obtainable from chests. Thanks for reading.

For someone who is as busy as myself this game and the ease of use it offers is amazing the gameplay is simple but gets more involved as it goes on in rounds the items are fun and have a good range of synergies that you can make into fun builds, only thing I would ask for would be an option to watch adds to speed up the chests as when there full you can collect more other than that it's a fun, quick and interesting little game.

I know there are some negative comments about the game, but for me I think it's a great game. Very addictive. I like the randomness of what the shop has, what your opponent has etc. I love that you can keep on playing, no waiting for energy to replenish. You might think "My opponent has loads of armour, I've lost", but with buffs, debuffs, thought and planning, you can still win. Strategic, tactical, fun and simple. Love it.

I really got this game hooked up. Time flew like i didnt care. It was a fun game of luck and strategy of course. No need to pay to progress, unless you choose to! Watching ads to refill that precious one life extra to make sure you win all 15 trophies, i can live with that. Not getting the item you want to appear in the shop can be frustrating, but hey, there's always another day for payback.
