Hero wars is the best app based game I have ever played

I have been playing this game for several years now there are several things that are phenomenal about this game for starters you can literally play for years without sinking a dime into the game and have very phenomenal characters very strong defending titans attack in titans which is another key point of the game that is is great the fact that there are two totally different areas with two very different types of gameplay there’s events that happen if you do have a little bit of money to sink into the Game you can progress a lot faster but it’s not necessary over the years I’ve put a little bit in but during large gaps of time where I don’t it’s still loads of fun and you can play throughout the day most games there are limiters put on where you’re no longer able to play unless you sync money in and it will literally take playing for like an hour or more before it hits that point every day and this game gives you excellent exercise in patience as well there is no instant gratification and while you can play literally all day it is set up in such a way that like you kind of almost have to walk away for a little bit and then pick it back up in order to continue doing some of the stuff which is good because it makes you take a break but I’m rambling a little bit here all in all try this game give it a shot I guarantee you will love it

Super cute

It tricked me with that match the hero in the tower to the enemy. Whatever. I was looking forward to that kind of garbage game but I was really surprised when it became this game. This is similar to a Disney game. Gist you send your heroes to fight enemies to increases levels. Same as Disney game of name I can’t remember. But both are super cute. I like this game for its graphics and cutie heroes. It’s mostly afk which is also good since I’m lazy. You can buy a lot of upgrades in this game. I’m poor so I can’t but if you have extra money there’s so much cosmetic upgrades to your heroes which are really good looking. Obv the mechanics of the game are simple you can put it on auto and let them fight. Like I said mostly afk. There is a website which oddly enough lets you play on the computer the same version of the game. I signed up for a second account not on purpose but whatever I started again online. There are some differences to the website vs app. You get different heroes to begin with and different events online. Also there’s a skill level up for both app and web but the web gives you 20 while app gives you 10. Im not mad bc the game in and of itself is fun so when one game runs out of energy I play the other. Yeah it’s time consuming but it’s fun for now. I give it 5/5. The game gives lots of freebies to both accounts so it’s engaging and keeps you coming back for more.

I spent 500$

This is not a free to play game. The puzzles are to make you download the game they don’t continue. Gems, gold, artifacts for hero’s and titans, equipment, skills, skins and gift of elements all cost money. All are necessary. (Grey) (green,1) (blue,1,2) (violet, 1,2,3) (gold,1,2,3,4) <still continues with this pattern on from there until max color level 120. If I had to guess if you spent 800$ and then at least 20-30 a week you can be top 30. There are over 500 servers of this. Over 10 guilds each server with 30 people each….They have enough money. Now lets talk about the game. It’s actually really fun the art styles are interesting and many different tasks to keep you busy that teach you about the whole game overall. If there was a way to choose a healer a tank and damage dealer of your choice then you had to build up a team from there, the game would be much better, but giving everyone the same teams and making them pay to get a random team to pay to level is just too much. I’m rich and quite addicted to this and I still think it’s a problem because I’m spending so much on a mobile game with cartoon characters, just to not have enough fake gems and gold when I really want to play more I have to turn the game off and spend more or play slow. Much rather just buy characters outright and level who I want to play with.

Well thought out and balanced

8 hours in, this is my first time playing this kind of game, I think it’s pretty well laid out and balanced. Then the grind kicked in. 2 months in. Still good. Some new content. Starting to get a little grindy 5 months in, the grind is getting too much. 5 months in, grind grind grind. Some cool events though. Grindddd. 7 months in, still hanging on. 10 months in, it gets a little better. Whoa, one year already? Still grinding , new game modes are alright. Is it really a year now , sure, grinding for the perfect 5. A year already? Grinding for end game. What is end game? I dunno anymore. How long has it been? A year now? I lost count, I dunno anymore. Another update: I guess things are better when your guild is good. So ya, join a good guild guys. Another update , I am out of new words to describe. Update#36: what am I grinding for …update #37, ok, so Nextar does try to make the game better/feel different through out the years. Update #38: game still feel alright with new Hero’s etc. #39 : read above. #40: hope more optimization comes along. And more live improvement too. #41: QoL improvement did come along, wish there is more automation. #42 still grinding. #43 really dig the new graphics update. Can’t shake the feeling I am doing the same thing over and over again though; #44 the gui and gfx updates are nice

Fun, but could use some tweaks

Overall, the game is good but as with everything in life, there is always room for improvement. Some of those include: 1. The need to spend gold on almost everything compared to the ability to earn in game is off-balanced. You can spend emeralds to get more gold though. 2. If you aren’t going to spend any money on this or watch a million videos, this isn’t the game for you. As with most free games, you’re either paying with money or time to get anywhere, nothing in life is free. 3. The Grand Arena could use some work. Having three teams is great, but without being able to see your competitor’s team, it’s hard to make a good strategy for it. 4. More titans. Just, add more titans to the game. 5. As a note to 4, there needs to be a way to heal the titans like you can heal heroes in the tower. 6. Last note: overall clarity of how guild wars works and maybe a character role indicator on the main character page would be helpful. I go into free games knowing they aren’t free so I take that aspect out of it when leaving reviews for them. For a mobile free game though, there are a lot of different game mechanics and if you aren’t good at one, you’re probably going to find one you are good at. Give it a shot, grind experience, and you’ll have a good time.

Hero Wars review

Okay, it’s a gattaca game, if you don’t like those we’ll take a hard pass. Okay so you like gattaca games? Then this one is pretty entertaining. By far the deepest character progression of any of these games I’ve played, layers and layers of things to improve your characters. Quite a few games modes and different characters shine in different roles, a good sign. So with any of these games is it pay to win? So I did very well without paying anything but it is obvious that if I were “competing” with someone money could push one of us ahead easily, so you can have fun free to play but money is going to make moving up way easier. They have a vip system and vip rank 1 is the one that really matters, it gives unlimited instant auto battles, very nice. You can get this by spending $2 so not bad.. I bought a $10 gem pack when they were on a x4 special, this was hugely helpful and I don’t see spending anymore on the game. I don’t see anywhere in the game where a lack of spending will stop me, it will just slow me down but I don’t mind that at all, these games are a fun diversion for me, I don’t need to be a “top ten” player on a mobile game… All in all I say if your a gattaca fan try it out, it plays fast and will have a few features you wish the devs of other gattaca games would take notice of(hey raid their take on a hydra boss isn’t rocket science…).

Fun and Semi-Casual

I have been trying to find a fun game that doesn’t consume your time and money. The game does offer instant completion features, however you will have to purchase a pack to get unlimited raid tickets to do so or earn them each day in game. I have paid $1.99 to get these unlocked and that is all. Otherwise the progression is reasonable. The graphics are pretty and funny. The characters are very cartoonishly designed but still nice. I do recommend giving it a try to at least level 50 before you decide. I think the $1.99 was at least worth it to speed up grinding that would otherwise take several minutes. The basics are to gather heroes and later on titans to farm items and resources to level up further and summon more playable characters. Team synergy is very important especially in arena areas where it is on auto. I have 20+ heroes and while I do primarily use the base team I received when first starting the game, I also try to split resources to make well balanced alternates for further progression. One thing I do like about this game is the fact it shows you who needs something, where to get it, and takes you there with one click. Overall I think the worst thing I have found is the difficulty level increases abruptly, and it took me several days to get moving again due to the energy and gold limitations from trying to play as free as possible.

My Hero Wars Experience

The game is entertaining for an idle game. The management gets a tad silly fairly quickly. You’ll spend money to get anywhere fast. Ads for daily grabs are worthless and a waste of time. A 30 second ad to get 10 energy, which won’t even get you two tries at most campaign levels, is the type of typical tomfoolery of these types of games, and this one is no different. I’ll never understand why, with the monetization that these apps get for these ads, never get you more than a couple pieces of pixel candy. I joined a guild on my server and then discovered that aside from the GM, I was the only active player. I quit that guild to look for a more active one, and none of the guilds had more than two actives. Some of the guild activities benefit from having many mates attempting the event (killing the hydra heads, for example). You are always getting new characters, but beware, you’ll overload yourself with trying to level them all up too useful levels. My biggest complaint is the PvP ranking system. You’ll advance to a certain spot and then never get past it because the “random” opponents that you can choose from will be significantly higher levels/power rankings. I haven’t won an arena battle in weeks because I never see opponents that are even close to me. It’s fun but keep it casual.
