« Less of a strategy game, more of a puzzle game. I feel like the puzzles are a little too one-solution based vs the open-ended design approach I personally like. Fun for a bit, but got tired of it rather fast. »👎 anonymous review · Feb 2026 · 2 h played« Every wizard in this world gets an unlikeable Millennial personality regardless of age (except for that traffic cop?), and it feels like dialogue is half the game. I had to quit. »👎 anonymous review · Jun 2026 · 14 h played« Best mobile game of 2015! Cute but boring and that "funny" tag is a bit misplaced »👎 anonymous review · Apr 2026 · 1 h played« Dropped the game. Made it though the first two sections of the game. The story is great and the characters even better but the gameplay leaves something to be desired. It is more of a puzzle game than a turn based tactics game like Xcom 2. »👎 anonymous review · Jul 2026 · 7 h played« Frustratingly unhelpful Like a puzzle that you have no clue what the image is supposed to be The levels with hints are the most frustrating. Like a person saying, "go west" knowing you don't have a compass »👎 anonymous review · Jul 2026 · 7 h played« Très bon jeu de tactique, mais surtout une très bonne écriture. L'humour est corrosif et les personnages réellement attachants. »👍 anonymous review · Oct 2024 · 14 h played
