(POST-UPDATE REVIEW)I haven't gone through the new tutorial but let's just assume it's better. The monsters no longer get in the way on the islands, which is awesome. There are more ways to find and earn gems, satisfying my cravings for gachapon more frequently. The PVP is still not balanced by might. I think it's balanced by rank and trophies? Which is fair, but my team is pretty worthless against people my rank who all have 10k more might than I have. Now for the BIG ONE; my game has not crashed once since the update. The island and battle screens run so much more smoothly, which leads me to believe it really was a graphical overload on my system that was the problem. It's all fixed now, and everything works and runs smoothly. Color me pleasantly surprised!(/POST-UPDATE REVIEW) To preface, I WANT to play this game, and I am going to muscle through the problems for a month because of that. I like when a mobile game doesn't have TOO MUCH to do, because otherwise I will invest way too much time into it. A solid couple hours a day will suffice here. The tutorial is a little long, and I understand it's for those who have never played a mobile game in their life, but it's 2020, it's about time every game implemented a "skip tutorial" feature for the initiated. If I can play through a tutorial in a foreign language, that's a pretty good indicator that it's not necessary. The pacing of building up the islands and powering up monsters is good, and the monsters are adorable. I love that one can pet them in the monster menu, however, poking them on the islands screen is a minor inconvenience when trying to select a structure. I read another review that said the game is generous with gems, and maybe I missed something because I am on day seven and still 400 gems away from a ten summon. Having played a lot of mobile games, it's possible I'm just spoiled by having the courtesy ten summon by the end of day one. It's a sleazy but effective tactic to get one hooked, whereas this game has one hoarding gems for the first week or so for that juicy haul. Not a huge problem, but most games do a big payout first day. Every Square-Enix mobile game I've every played gives tens of thousands of gems day one, but it makes sense there with so much to unlock in the long run. PVP starts one off battling others who are laughably weak, but after maybe five PVP fights, one will be pitted against players who outrank them by 10+ levels and 10k+ might. I can't fault the game for this, because I have literally never played a mobile game where the PVP was balanced. Unbalanced PVP shouldn't be a problem if one is not PVP-focused, but like other games, PVP in this game leads to loss of precious resources (ore and coin). Now, for my biggest problem, the game crashing. I've seen developer responses saying they are working on optimizing the game, and that is why I am holding out. My phone isn't the greatest, and setting graphics to lowest usually helps, but in this game it did virtually nothing. This should be a priority for the developers to fix, because if the game crashes during a guild boss, it effects my damage performance that cannot be done over. If it crashes during a treasure chest ad, the rewards are not collected, and it's another few hours before opening another, which super sucks since the gem output is a little stingy compared to what I'm used to. If it crashes during PVP, it's an automatic loss. If it crashes during a campaign battle, that stamina is gone, and there is no "resume battle" option upon reboot, for stamina that takes I think eight minutes to restore one. The crashing is such a source of loss and frustration, if it were fixed, it would be worth going up another two stars in the rating.

Loving it so far but needs a few tweaks here and there but I'm really enjoying it... There's one thing that I know is pety but it has to do with the fluid animation of when you tap the color boxes and that is when you do, the animation is super fast, feels hurried in my opinion. I'd love to see the timing of the box animations a bit slower( ie tap box and its automatically is gone, no fluid animation of the boxes dropping) .. I know this is crazy but for some reason it impacts the game for me :)

Now for some unknown reason the game just doesn't load. It was working yesterday and yet when I open it up I get the igg logo then a black screen and it closes.
