It's an idle game, so nothing groundbreaking, but I've enjoyed it. Every time I check in, I have a good amount of resources to apply, and afterward, I can usually make good progress. The main problem is how often I need to restart the app while playing. If I turn off the screen for 10 seconds the game gets angry and disconnects from the server, but won't reconnect unless I close and reopen the game.
It's alright at first, even though it's essentially just a game that plays itself with minimal interactions, and the devs are very generous with rewards early game. I've spent months playing and haven't made any noticable progress. I'm considering uninstalling because of that and, the devs are incredibly unresponsive and don't listen to feedback at all. I've seen plenty of complaints about slow progress, and their only response is to tell you how to get items, like we don't already know. NWYT.
Oh man how do I start ... As a person who enjoys idle games mainly because I work a lot and don't have a lot of time to spend enjoying a game. This one really killed it. It's perfect, it's strategic while maintaining a neutral game play. The pay to win in my opinion is a bit over priced but good news!!!! it's not necessary the developers perfected an idle game that allows you to progress, enjoy and maintain your daily responsibilities at no cost at all. 😙👌🏽
It's a great game with a wide amount of systems to follow. As many have said, it does slow down, but it's one of the most rewarding idle games on the app store. You're given anywhere from 100k - 300k gems a day, and dailies take maybe 5 minutes. The only time you spend a good bit of time on the game is after significant upgrades. Also offline rewards are just as good as online rewards. After 20k hours in idle games where you need to run them year-round on emulators, this is by far the best.
I really like this game, and I exclusively play idle games because of my schedule. I love the graphics and frequent updates with new features. One constructive critism I have is the speed in which you move through levels. I have bought a few support packs in order to increase the rate, but I have only averaged another 25 levels per day. I feel like if gold or experience was 33% percent higher it would help unlocking the new features as I am only able to average about half an hour a day.
Frankly the worst part of this game is trying to decipher the patch notes. The dev's first language is clearly not English, however the grammatical errors in the patch notes never seem to make it into the game, so absolutely a 5/5. Loving this game. It's really not a P2W game even if that would give you an advantage. The only purchase that I feel is moderately important is ad removal, and that is ONLY because you can watch ads for bonuses and the ad removal gives you them without the ads.
Long-term idler here. This game is quality as an idle game. Every "wall" in this game can be overcome free to play. You may want to buy the ad skip because several daily rewards are tied up in adsin the shop page, but I don't think ads are present anywhere else(could be wrong it's been a while). Frequent updates and plenty of free handouts from the developers make for an enjoyable idle experience. 9/10 idle game only cuz 10 is perfection
It's okay. The idle portion is there, but there's nothing special about the game. Everyone is the same class, same skills, same equipment, same pets for later on. The only thing that separates you from others is a number under your name indicating what rank you are for how far you've gone in stages. If there was multiple classes this game would probably keep my interest.
It's now the #1 best idle game I've played; I've been on for a year now and it's still great. The devs are very generous with premium currency, RNG is fair, audio & visuals are great, and progress has been steady. New content has been great and super interesting over time. I have only ever paid for ad removal, and I'm rank 4000 on server 1 and 900 on server 2. I highly recommend for those looking for a well-made, fair idle game that isn't a pure money grab. Great work devs, keep it up!
I love the game, most idle games I delete after 2-3 days! Ads are not required to progress and their optional! No ingame purchases to progress, I play this game when I wake up and at night and I make so much progression. Im at stage 11-26 and I still get like 20 stages every day! Ive only spent 5 dollors! This game updates like 1 time every 2 weeks. Keep up the good work. Get the game you wont regret it!
Updating, just because I didn't leave anything but a 5* review when I installed this game back in May. This game is perfect for those like me who like the idle rpg style games but don't have a lot of time to spend grinding. I try TONS of games, and this is 1 of two that I've kept playing for more than a couple weeks. The amount of in-game currency they give to summon gear and such is impressive, even for f2p. Highly recommend to anyone for best idle rpg out there. Great job, devs!! Thank you.
Been playing close to 2 years. Overall I've greatly enjoyed the experience, and it's the longest I've ever played a mobile game. It's progression is fast and fluid, they're generous with in-game currency, you can farm pretty well offline entirely. Quite a bit of different things to level, and they have full ad removal not a monthly subscription removal which is awful. I hate when other companies do that. Overall I would highly recommend it.
Top 1000 player here (maxxed out at the 500s but down to 700s ATM). This is the longest I've played a mobile game daily by far. Everytime I think I'm about to catch up to the upper level content, they add more haha. About to hit level 34000 and I just keep logging in everyday regardless. Is it perfect, no, but it's a ton of fun and I love it ❤️
Very rarely do i find a mobile game with as much integrity as this one. They dont try to squeeze hundreds of dollars out of you, which makes me actually want to spend money ironically. The game is always updating, fluid, beautiful, and strategic. Idk when i downloaded the app but I've played every day for months, maybe even over a year. Amazing job devs - best game of its kind !
After the last update, Blade Idle is basically unplayable for me. It takes 4 minutes just to make it to the loading screen if it gets there at all. Transitioning between stages when pushing dungeons takes a little over 2 minutes, and that's if it doesn't crash. lag spikes between opening chests, summoning anything, and even opening screens. it's become hard to enjoy this if I'm doing anything besides idling. I've played since launch, first time since that I've considered quiting. such a shame.
I've played so many idle games over the years and I don't think I've ever played one as long as I've played this one. It's so good. It's perfect because I'm so busy and only have a small amount of time for games daily, and I can just leave this running on my 2nd phone all day and check on it once or twice. The pay wall is steep but not necessary. I've only purchased adskip and one other thing but I'm in the top 3k players, so it's possible to play competitively without paying. I love this game.
Pay to win nonsense. If you're a whale, congrats, you're the top player. But for everyone else, we get collab events that last way too long and don't give us anything at a certain point. Also, battle passes that cost as much as an expansion in a real game. With the added benefit of every half decent item that costs $5 now costs $12. And every new thing they add make you say 'oh that's new' until you figure out this is just another generic gacha pull that doesn't give you anything.
Pros: most resources are easy to obtain and progression is fairly steady Cons: insignia dungeon (specifically fragment merging being too luck based) and the balance of penetration and accuracy stats in comparison to the scaling requirements and high cost of increasing. Summary: enjoyable game that I play a little every day, but not one I would recommend spending $ on until they make insignia fragments less luck based to obtain (I've spent money and found it to not be worthwhile)
Probably the best idle game out there. Unlike others, this gives out free ample diamonds to grow with. Been with them for a year now. Some boring parts, other parts seem to just be there, but I have yet to find a better pure idle game. This is a long haul game, but you only need to put in about 30 mins a day and you can steadily climb. (Some days for building will run longer than 30 mins).
Very fun and easy to grasp but frustrating at times. I have an issue with constantly being told there are no ads to view, no offense but it's not my fault that there are no ads so why not allow us to go ahead and claim the reward for watching? I would personally love to be able to purchase ad free especially for the daily videos since there are SO MANY PER DAY. Maybe make it watch one ad you get a random 3 tickets max of like 5 per day.
