Animation Throwdown: Card Game

App Store Editors’ Notes

Fun game!

This game gives you hours of fun and excitement. I love this game but there are a few glitches. Like when trying to see a recipe for a combo card, the game always crashes. I don't understand that, but I see here on the reviews that this is an issue for everyone. And I wish you could recycle old upgraded cards. I have sooo many common cards that I don't use anymore that I can't get rid of. I wish it would allow you to recycle them. But other then that, this game is solid. And I love the new calendar feature that gives you free goodies for playing everyday. (4star rating) Update: bug issue of game crashing when trying to view combos has since been fixed! Thank you! And I figured out how to delete common cards. That was my error not the game lol. But the issue was that they were in other decks so I couldn’t delete them. The game is great. The only, I don’t wanna call it an issue, but suggestion I have is to be able to delete extra decks. I added decks for swole events and different BGEs but would love to be able to delete them when done. At the moment, I have 5-6 decks that I can’t get rid of. That would be an awesome feature. But I will change my rating to 5 star because that’s not a super big deal, just a preference and the game really is awesome! Everyone should play ☺️

I love this game sooo much

I’ve been playing it for a while... but I’m having a hard time understanding how people get so for in things like the challenges or for example how the Swole Club just started again. You go to rankings and see people already have 44 points. How is that even possible when we only get 9 turns and then we have to wait??? It literally just started one hour ago and people already had 44 it would’ve been normal if they had 17 like I did because you know that’s how many points you got after beating all of the 9 turns. But some people had 44??? How am I supposed to get high up in the rankings if other people clearly can play a day before I? That’s not fair and it pisses me off how my rankings are lower then everybody else yet it’s not my fault. ALSO! The fact that you guys completely aren’t “randomizing” the cards or even the punch and cripple things. I simply can not believe and I refuse to believe that 5 out of 10 games gives me 10+ character or object cards in a row. Or even believe that the computer can punch my one card even though I have 3 others by every card it has but my card will literally go for the card that isn’t even hitting or effecting anything. Like it could of just been sat out there. Like literally the card that’s about to be taken out will get crippled by my first card, but it didn’t even need to be crippled because it was about to die either way and it could’ve just cripple the one behind it. It just shows that it wants me to buy cards...

Latest Update

I just wanted to say that I don’t like your latest update. You updated the most random stuff that did NOT need to be updated. I only updated cuz the game wouldn’t let me play unless I did. Don’t update stuff that doesn’t need to be updated. You need to focus on why your app seems to always think there’s no internet connection no matter where I am or how good the internet connection is. You need to focus on adding an “auto-play” button to the challenges, rumbles and sieges. Not the NEW auto-play button you just updated either. You need to change that back. The button was not only moved to the opposite side of the screen but you also changed the little design inside of the button and then added some random “change your deck” button that NOBODY needed or asked for. I play this app every single day. Several times a day. If you keep making random unnecessary changes, I’m just not going to bother anymore. Every update takes up a lot of memory on my phone. When the updates have honestly just been random stuff that doesn’t need to be fixed on top of everything.

Got Communication?

This game lacks communication amongst all players globally whether they’re part of a guild or in others. Communication is key whether it’s through knowing what going on, strategy, causal and even recruiting but what rumors are going around is that they’re going to discontinue server chats altogether and simply not communicate with others unless you plan to get another app to do so, but if a new member would to join a guild while it’s implemented they’re not going to know what app the guild uses if they even use one and become out of the loop. For guilds that have lost members due to players hopping around to others or due to inactivity guild are not capable to tell players globally that they’re looking for players as it stands. Forums are starting to not even work and even when they did people don’t want to look through 100s of ads when that guild may not be recruiting anymore at that time. Please keep communication all on the same game and consider creating a global chat for everyone to be able to communicate with everyone that plays this game. Unsure if this recommendation has any merit since Kongregate appears to not want any part having to monitor communication but it’s something I think that the game truly needs

TOO MANY ADS and won’t even let me star rate it

So I wrote another review but I can’t seem to find it to revise it so I guess I’ll start a new one. Where do I start this game requires you to watch an ad to pretty much do anything and that’s no exaggeration. Do you wanna upgrade a card? You have to watch it and had to even place it in the upgrade slot and then you have to watch another upgrade just to whittle your time down want to collect the various prizes that’s right got a watch another ad. Oh and the latest event now the Dems are charging us gyms to just collect the event prizes for logging in every day. Went back-and-forth with Support. Because I thought it was a glitch first they tried telling me that all it will only charge you 50 gems. If you miss a day, and then it was from 50 gems to 100 gems. And to make matters even worse then I was informed that it wasn’t just because I missed today because I knew that I hadn’t. And my daily logins would prove that, but oh no it was a premium prize so you had to pay gems to even collect it needless to say I am uninstalling this game and I would suggest anybody else that wants to look at it just go find something else to waste your time on because this game isn’t worth the time much less the money spent on it

It’s a great game but Very focused on MONEY

As a person who plays this game a for a while now , I can certainly say that this game is a very fun game. But you can tell is HEAVILY DESIGNED ON PAY TO WIN. This game has multiple currencies for multiple purposes. This right there is a sign of pay to win. They want you to collect coins and currency through out your playing time so you could get better cards and due certain activities throughout the game. The problem is that it could tell nearly all day to get the amount of points you want or need or even multiple days. It takes multiple hours/days to research combos. It takes multiple hours to reload your adventure bar . Basically it takes multiple hours to do things OR YOU COULD PAY AND GET YOUR CURRENCY AND MAKE IT HAPPEN NOW. I personally never spent a single dollar in this game but is just frustrating that I can’t have fun anymore because when you get to a high enough level you can only play for a few minutes without running out of points , then you have to wait an entire day to play again. Games are design with this purpose so you could continuously come back and keep playing it. GOOD GAME BUT VERY BAD CURRENCY DESIGN - PAY TO WIN

Used to be fun

I Used to love this game and have spent years playing. I have over seventy mythic, gold cards, which take a while or a lot of money to acquire. There are not enough characters allowed in this review to mention everything currently screwed up in the game. The company even allows buying stuff in game with ill gotten gems from third parties not affiliated with the game, just a minor, week long ban for top guild players caught. They don’t care. Here’s the thing, the only way you will win continually is to spend a lot of money. Power cards dominate in every type of play and they are overpowered, overpriced and they don’t require any strategy. Even events like melee, where they don’t get any bonus, they win. it shouldn’t make a difference but they are too overpowered and they still dominate and they won’t do anything about it. Just slap 35 quad fused gold crowned, powercards in a deck (not cheap to get) and you’ll win most games with no real strategy needed. This is the kind of deck you’ll play against from many many players in the top guilds. Since the recent melee changes, this is all I see now, a wall of one man band, photographer Klaus, borthday bash and rainbow room powercard decks. I have spent a ton on of money on this game myself but about to walk away because it has become so unbalanced and such an obvious money grab. Once you get to my level, every card type below legendary is useless, including epic power cards but prizes are almost always epic and below, unless you get much higher. I now get kind of angry everytime I play due to all of the issues. Save yourself some money and sanity. If you are free to play, that’s a whole new kettle of worms, wait 24 - 48 hours just to research a combo. I was stupid to start playing.

Meh

OK so i’m not gonna be a hater and say that this game is trash, I enjoy most of the gameplay and almost play daily, but the reason I didn’t give five stars is because of a couple things I personally dislike. First and foremost the ranking system after u enter the secret fight club is rigged, the only way u can grind in it is hoping you go against someone who’s a lower level kuz if not your going to lose every time. They didn’t even try to balance it. Another thing I’d like to complain about is how pay to win this game is. If I’m not spending over $5000 on this game you can basically say Ur the weakest player in the game. Also I’ve been playing for 3+ years and still do not own a mythic card. One more thing is how much this app freezes. You can clearly tell there wasn’t a huge thought process to how the game was put together. Last thing and developer correct me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure everyone in the secret fight club that you battle automatically have better cards then you. (Again correct me if I’m wrong) other then that it’s an ok game. Just really frustrating how un fair arena gameplay is.
