What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players generally appreciate this as a relaxing background idle/autobattler that doesn't demand constant attention, with some praising the developer's responsiveness to updates and the satisfying long-term progression system. However, common complaints center on the intrusive anime-style tutorial character that blocks the UI and can't be disabled, poor initial onboarding and balancing issues, and a cluttered design that feels unpolished despite the core concept being solid. The game has improved through patches but still needs refinement in its presentation and economy systems to feel complete

I got this game because I thought it's some mindless "number go up" idle game giving free dopamine. However after 80 minutes, my team is still barely at level 20, stuck around floor 20 of the first and second dungeon. There is no number going up, only tedious equipment comparing for barely any gain. The drop are rare, and even when it drops, it's mostly the lowest rarity. This might have been fine if it was a normal RPG, but the game description promised "no grind, no stress, only progression". In the 80 minutes I played, there is only grind, some stress, and barely any progression.

i personally love this game. tend to watch anime and during credits do my home stuff, level skills and check equipment. would like an active play mode or game inside it. fishing was doing that until my auto fish got so high wasn't any need. now it's not perfect, and their are balancing issues. (thunder mage op) but lets be real you won't find a "perfect" auto-battler.

Im currently enjoying this game, its kinda doesnt fit with the "idle" tile but the game play is not that difficult to understand though. Devs should focus more when realease new gear, especially with those gear which design for a specific built, e.g. great sage set, this set are made for ninja (wukong skin) and the core attribute is holy eventhough ninja has 0 skill scale with holy, only lightning, so whats the point with the holy in this set when you made me farm but only look for the one that has lightning attribute in it?

It's disappointing coz it's supposed to be a 'desktop companion' but it won't stick to the screen you chose (it keeps resetting to the 1st monitor), and the 'stay on top' doesn't work. So if you're aiming to keep it running at the bottom of your screen while you work, it'll just get buried by your active window. I was hoping to fight monsters, not keep fighting the damn settings

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
