Freezes every ten minutes or so and has to be restarted. Frustrating. Otherwise good. Edited. Started well then it settled down into a boring game of grinding and the interesting bits vanished. Just another tedious game that is nothing like the adverts. Without paying for stuff, it takes days to move on and level up with little or no promise of improvement. Very disappointing!
Reviews for Hero Wars: Alliance
Fun but needs improvement. Can't find info in-game for skills, factions. Recently joined a guild. When I enter the guild, I'm directed immediately to use up all the stones I have and can't X out of that screen without completely closing and relaunching the app. This is absolutely terrible UX! There should be a way to at least return to the main game without using all stones but it would be great if I could explore the guild and use the stones as I wish. I really hope you fix it.
I'm currently stuck. The game is trying to force me to do a certain battle through a tutorial I can't skip, but the battle it's trying to get me to do can't be accessed for 24 hours. When I close and re-open the app, the tutorial takes over and I can't do anything in the app. It just leads me back to the battle I can't access. Tutorials that completely remove your agency ruin games. This game is officially broken for me for the next 24 hours now, which is enough to make me want to uninstall it.
No real game play. I thought, seeing the advertisements it would be about puzzle solving and thats not the game at all. Very bad advertising. No tutorial either in other words I just throws you in the deep end and laughs as you drown. I have given this game multiple chances and it sucks every time. I love challenging games but this is impossible from the start no puzzles no challenges just sets you up to fail cannot even make it to the story assuming it has one.
I want to like this game. The premise is interesting, the gameplay is solid, but it suffers from one glaring problem. The overwhelming monetization. The game asks you to spend money to do anything. I know, nothing new for mobile games, but it is especially egregious here. If it was reworked to remove monetization and add a better story mode I'd gladly pay $30 or $50 for this.
THIS GAME IS NOTHING LIKE THE PLAYABLE AD. -3 STARS FOR LYING!! Great graphics and all but I wanted to play what was advertised. I want to play the game in the playable demo!! I want the simplicity of the demo game to help me unwind. Just be honest about what the game is about. I played this version up to like level 55 but it's just too needy, too greedy, too convoluted, too time consuming to just have cut scenes and upgrades. Ugh.
First several levels are easy and fun, then getting farther into it the requirement for upgrading the heros are astronomical. You have to buy your way through with emeralds, favors and event tickets. The fun ends pretty quick when you level up and have to buy the next level. After about six months I've giving up on advanceing farther and will stop playing.
I only played a few minutes of this before I gave up and uninstalled it. my phone is an S24 fe so there's no hardware reason as to why it's unplayable, but it is. My phone is also up to date software wise. it froze 2-3 times during the first part of the tutorial, then it kept freezing during loading screens. Which forced me to have to close and reopen the game over and over again. No idea what the issue is, as I've never had this problem.
It was great until my emeralds started disappearing. I had almost 4000 at one point, then it dropped to 3700. I got back up to almost 4000 again, and it dropped to 3200 and then again to 2750. Now I logged in, and it's at 2500. Very annoying since I wasted so much time watching ads for tickets to exchange for emeralds, only to keep losing them every time I log in. This needs to be fixed. I've been playing for over a year and a half and never had this problem until the past week.
Here is a truthful summary of this game: Firstly, you cannot get your heroes up to a decent level without paying real money. Secondly, you will see how restricted the game play is. You use blue energy to attempt to get through the campaign - which is the only actual game play there is. There is never enough free energy! Thirdly, "events" are the same - boring prizes. Fourthly, titans have nothing to do with game - they're separate and boring. Conclusion: An app that NEEDS real money for no game.
