Grindy yet fun Levels past the sewer are basically grindy nightmare. You won't get far without upgrading your stuff. Game's real fun though, so it's cool.

It had so much potential The game devs got everything right except the "combat/exploration" which is so broken it makes you want to cry. While you can't "lose" in this game each attempt at upgrading your weapons, gaining new monsters, advancing in level, anything at all really, is basically a hail Mary on whether or not rngjesus is with you. The system, in it's attempt to not be a candy crush clone, manages to take out anything that actually made candy crush fun and turn it into a mindless grind.

Poor level matching early on Spend most of my time dying and earning 5g a run because I can't do enough damage and opponents knock me back way too fast. Needs a good amount of rebalancing,

Could be better I concur, poor tile availability and too random for matching while the board moves quickly on. Too many times I'm stuck because there isn't what I need, such as a box and no matter how much matching, I don't get what I need to damage that box or foe. Needs work.

So many people write about poor tile availability...are you kidding? It's a freaking game..the system is not out to get you, you weirdos, and your tile availability conspiracy dog too. Play... have fun... it's a good game as a time killer and is a lil challenging at times.

Love it and hate it After playing for a few hours I can safely say this is a great little game but quite frustrating. If your tiles are good its great, you get a good flow and really get into it. However when the tiles are poorly arranged there is never enough time to get things in order before your pushed off screen. Particularly with chests, im not fighting then so the autoscroll seems a bit unnecessary, but still this is a great frenetic game in a sea of pay to win and mediocre title's, set sail for adventure everyone!

Fun and addicting Get this game. It's cheap, fun, and great for playing for a few minutes to kill time. Soundtrack brought me back to the NES days; just really well done.
The name of the game! A great match-three puzzle rpg, with lovely pixel art, a fantastically silly sense of humour and excellent presentation. The difficulty ramps up at just the right pace. A fine example of a puzzler.
Could be better Good game but cranks up the difficulty rapidly. Boxes that attack don't stack, therefore if you break them before you reach the monster they are useless. Has a lot of potential just forces replayability through higher difficulty.
🙀 Ugh.. I loved 10000000; this game is quite similar. I'd like to play, but the way the screen shakes n' flashes makes me sooo nauseous. Had to uninstall.
Disappointment I was hoping the sequel would address some of the issues from the first, but it doesn't. You still have a bunch of runs that you'll lose simply because the tiles you need aren't available. The game reminds of me of funs cousin, Negative Fun.
10000000 had both quests and boss enemies and that variety of challenge was more fun. This game is lacking in meaningful choice -- whether to stay in this dungeon or go up a level, which store or monster you want to unlock, and so on. You can't choose where you go on the map, so it's meaningless. You don't really choose most of your upgrades since they come from doing quests -- it should have let you pick your reward, at least. I miss planning out which upgrade I was shooting for at the trainer and focusing on wood or gold or whatever was needed. The cut scenes are slow, repetitive, and unskippable -- particularly the anchor dropping and the monsters breaking out of the crates.I'll probably go back to the original game.
Pretty fun A match three and rogue-lite combination that's quite a bit of fun. A little repetitive but pushes you to keep doing better every run.
Strange bug I have unlocked (?) the Catapult monster in the library, but he isn't purchasable no matter what I do. This prevents me from finishing the Pitchers group. Any idea how to fix?
Excellent match 3 game Very simple but very addictive. Hard to stop playing. You match symbols, collect gold, die, buy power up and start again. Definitely worth the price.
I love this game I bought this game once I read about it in Game Informer, and I was not disappointed. The game is very challenging and addicting, but it can be pretty frustrating once you get deep into it. I love it. I think it's really fun and I like the music in it.
I have to leave a bad review to balance out all these people who are calling it good. This game is poorly made and isn't even that fun. I don't know what everyone is seeing in this game.
Bs About half the time in this game while your playing it will give you no move and pretty much say your f/uck ed so please fix this or give me my money.
Poor scaling, no depth, repetitive I loved the rpg/gem game hybrids, this is not that. It tries to be, but fails in every important aspect.
Amazing Addicting and fun. Has decent replay value, as the game gets harder the more you play.
All that and a boat Delightful soundtrack, challenging little goals and a host of cool buddies to find. Takes the simple drive of 100000000 and gives it a gorgeous new world to play in. YOU MUST BUILD A BOAT.
Strange bug on mine... Game works fine but all text on the UI and even menus are gone...icons still there still able to press everything but there is no text
Couldn't put it down The first play-through just pretty much put my life on hold for two days. Very fun and in my opinion a significant improvement over the developer's previous title, 1000000
The tiles are a bit too random, your lucky to get any matching sets... needs updating to make it more enjoyable, tweek the ai (if there is any) to give it a few more of the tiles yo need for next ecounter for as it is now it is just pure dumb luck...
Rushed For a game that demands twitchy-fast play, the controls sure are unreliable. It refuses input during some animations and sometimes plain ignores swipes.
The game ran fine yesterday, but now it's saying my hardware isn't compatible with the app. I haven't got a clue why
HATE IT! SO FUSTRATING EVERY TIME I GO FOR A RUN IT SAYS I WIN AND I GET NOTHING FROM WINNING!!!!
Nice improvement Great iteration on the core gameplay of 10000000. The basics are the same, but it feels a lot deeper and more interesting.
Enjoyable little connect 3 game with an RPG twist worth it if the price point is not an issue
Really good Nice iteration on the previous game. The main game is foox but the daily challenges are too hard to be fun.
Somehow didn't captivate me. A little too much going on to keep track of. Maybe I'm too stupid to play this game.
Great game So far this is probably my favorite mobile game! Hope to see part 3!
Was a great game until recent update now the textures are all messed up and glichy
Fixed! Fixed after the no text bug, great! One of the best games ever!
Fantastic game Not much else to say other than a very addictive solid game. Well worth the purchase
Addictive Great game with an interesting twist, took some time to get used to. Overall a great game!
Amazing First mobile game that has kept me interested to finish and write a review well done :)
