The game itself is fantastic. There's more than enough variety with the characters even if you don't have them all unlocked. The few bucks immediately unlocks so much more play time and I enjoy all of them, even if they're normally not my "style." My one complaint is I despise subscriptions in Mobile games. With how easy they are to forget (~85% of people have at least one subscription they've forgotten) I can't condone it. Making the ad removal a one time purchase would make this game 5/5

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.

Came back to this game to find it now has audio (which it should have had to begin with) which sometimes bugs out and doesnt play when you win a round. The game has also become super unbalanced and some how even more frustrating then before. The new character "Buzz" in perticular feels way too strong as i kept getting destroyed by him. It also feels much harder to climb as i cant seem to escape ruby rank no matter how hard i try. Also when i came back all my progress from before was gone.

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!!

Looks simple at first...but is actually semi-complex... I tend to try and run a "rat build" where each rat buffs another rat. But you need to chose between what kinda rats, daggers (at they are 0 mana weapons so good to spam, but weak) or more space. Unlike most games that have this cartoon style, this also feels like you can actually choose and progress. Would totally recommend 👌

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.

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

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!

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.

Game is sometimes really fun, but I swear it will decide to randomly screw you over and for multiple playthroughs just not give you any weapons. Pool of weapons and builds need to be refined a bit, shouldn't go through 5 playthroughs with 5 lives each run plus an extra life with the ad, to go out with one or two trophies out of 15 just because you weren't able to buy any weapons.

Ok. Game will need some changes in the near future. Have played this for a few days got my fav classes to lvl 7. Quests are too hard, the craft 20 items in one game being impossible almost. Rewards - quest rewards are not good enough. - you've introduced a subscription which is too expensive for what it provides, too early for a membership. - rank should give weekly rewards depending on how high you managed to climb the ladder.
