1. [R1] 3/5 · US Love except: Love this game, but way to many add watching! Takes the fun out of it
2. [R10] 5/5 · US Game: Fun game
3. [R12] 5/5 · US Fun: It’s a fun game .😁😁😁
4. [R13] 5/5 · US Idle magic: It’s a good game great wizards to train to become stronger to defeat future enemies and bosses.
5. [R21] 5/5 · US Great Game: Totally some HP stuff in here lol but tbh it’s a great game. Fun time passer. Definitely recommend just spending the $14.99 and getting the permanent stop ad deal. Def worth it.
6. [R48] 5/5 · US Removing the ads, removes ALL THE ADS!!!: I have been so addicted to this game. I purchased the offline caretaker that came with ad removal and every single ad is gone..INCLUDING the ones for bonus stuff. Everything is so unobtrusive it’s amazing. There’s very little if any force to pay for micro transactions… there’s even a shop you can buy stuff with in game currency. I love this game 10/10
7. [R50] 5/5 · US Best Idle Game: I initially downloaded this for swagbucks but found out I had downloaded it at some point before so wasn’t eligible. I decided to play anyway and it was a great choice. The ads are reasonable for what you get, but if you want to skip them, you can still make progress or pay a one time fee to not watch them. I paid for no ads when it was on sale and I have been making insane progres
8. [R34] 5/5 · US Love this game: I been playing this game for a while now I don’t even know how long but it’s a great way to pass time. I love pressing buttons so if you’re a button masher it’s a good one lol. Updates can be slow but every update brings something fun plus I really like the adventure feature makes it more than a regular Idle game to. Only downfall I’d say is the girl in the shop doesn’t have an ava
9. [R46] 5/5 · US Great idle game: Love the game. I have played it on and off since the release . The only thing is I wish the last map would open shadow isles it has been saying coming soon for awhile now. But the new events adds something new ; which is a good change!
10. [R49] 4/5 · US Please unlock the last school soon!: I like this game and the new events make it more interesting and make me want to play more. I’ve been waiting for the last school to be available for a while though I hope they release it soon
11. [R3] 3/5 · US Nice but with issues: Is a nice game, you can spend more than a hour hooked playing this thing. Now the only problem I see is the login issue. Since I got it the first time I haven’t been able to sign in. I’ve been playing as guest this whole time and is kinda scary to spend money on a guest account that you can lose at any time… fix it please.
12. [R36] 5/5 · US READ NOW!: relaxing but not completely brainless has nice upgrade features nice sound effects simple quests and its an incremental idle game love this game 100% recommend
13. [R4] 4/5 · US Can’t log in into apple account: The games cool and simple however I can’t save my progress because the login feature doesn’t work for apple please fix.
14. [R7] 2/5 · US Apple sign in BUG: Hello, the Apple sign in has not been working for weeks now. I’ve been unable to access my account that is linked tk my Apple ID. Please fix this … Users: beware, you may lose your in app purchase due to this bug… despite linking your game.
15. [R9] 2/5 · US Log in: Cannot log in with Apple. It brings me to my Authenticator app. Would love to be able to log in. When I see an update stating this has been fixed I’ll open the app again. Until then nope!
16. [R15] 3/5 · US Lost all my progress: I want to give this game 5 stars because I LOVED it. However, since the new update I can’t log on with apple account and it lost all my progress. I had been playing for YEARS! Idk how to get in contact with someone to fix the issue, but it was a fun game, now I’m starting over. 😭 I hope the sign in gets fixed in future updates or someone can help me out…
17. [R11] 1/5 · US Ads, terrible idle mechanics: It’s an idle game where you only get 2 hours of idle progress without paying. Paying can get you all the way up to…6 hours of idle progress. Also tons of ads unless you pay. Lazy cash grab.
18. [R28] 1/5 · US idle magic academy: If you like ads every 20 seconds ,this game is perfect for you.
19. [R29] 3/5 · US Love it…BUT: I really love this game. BUT!!! It makes my phone sooo hot, I can’t even charge it and have to stop playing so it can cool off. Speaking of charging, it drains my battery faster than any other game I play. Also, the amount of ads you have to watch to get ahead is a little ridiculous. That said, I love the game and I am waiting for a new “school” to build as I’ve done the others.
20. [R8] 4/5 · US Issues with the last map!!!: Can’t get shadow isle to play! It is darkened out and I cannot play it! WHY AND WHY CAN I NOT FIX IT!!
21. [R18] 4/5 · US Great game just two issues: Please put wands in order. I hate having the same wand in 4 different places, it is had to see what you have. Also, please update, so Shadow Isles is available
22. [R27] 3/5 · US Cute little game: It’s a cute little game but the shadow isle academy isn’t still available and it’s been three years. At this point might as well just delete the game since I can’t complete it.
23. [R30] 2/5 · US Bugs or otherwise: I’m not sure what the problem is but NONE of my Wizard Tower challenge points are refilling unless I’m online and I don’t recall that ever being a factor. Many times I have been offline and woke up to being able to use 5 new chance to challenge. It doesn’t make a lick of sense to have to be online for those attempt to recharge completely. P.s Where is my original review and why
24. [R2] 3/5 · US Half baked: A lot of the game doesn’t work and thread bonuses are loaded with spyware. Don’t bother with the dorms or buying the offline manager. Ad rewards may or may not be given.
25. [R6] 1/5 · US DO NOT DOWNLOAD: I downloaded this game and 10 minutes later I got a notification of someone in Santa Maria trying to access my apple account. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT DOWNLOAD.
26. [R16] 1/5 · US To slow: 100% Pay to win
27. [R33] 3/5 · US Could use better balance: I have the paid version, it I still find that I quickly get to the point in a new world where it takes forever to get enough money to buy more than one thing at a time. I am not willing to put any more money into it, so it is quickly losing its luster when all I can really do is log in to collect money to save.
28. [R37] 1/5 · US Deceptive: The game fakes other players on leaderboards, not even sure it displays other players at all. It reuses the same naming scheme on all of the names it puts on the leaderboard. Even having the same name on more than five or so rankings (didn’t spend much time looking). On events it will shoot up the score of ‘other players’ when you leave event screen and return. It’s just a weird way to
29. [R43] 1/5 · US No real players: I was prepared to give this game a high score but after playing it long enough I figured out that the “players” you aren’t playing against aren’t real. The tower players and the limited time event players aren’t real people. It’s easy to tell. The amount of other people I’ve spoken to and seen reviews from, just playing it enough will put everyone in first place. The limited event
30. [R20] 1/5 · US Won't let me sign in with Apple: Decent app but it won't let me sign in with my apple account no matter what I do. I just get caught in a "permanent loading wheel". Tried signing in as a guest and then linking to Apple account. Still didn't load. I tried redownloading the app and it didn't work. Can't contact support either. Also, some of the content in the game is clearly using the same names/c
31. [R24] 1/5 · US Taking money: I purchased the piggy bank for the even and got the all set pop up then the game refreshed and I did not get the coins. I know it’s only 1.99 (2.15 with) tax but that’s bad business to not give people what they pay for and no way to contact anyone out side of posting a review. I really enjoy this game but this is not my favorite.
32. [R31] 4/5 · US Some good and some bad.: I’ve been playing for a while and have the first 3 colleges completed. But for the past 2 weeks my wizard tower attempts havnt refreshed at all. It stays stuck at 2 hours. I’m currently at level 121 and in rank 1 so I would like to keep combing to keep my stop but I have been unable too. There’s no report a bug feature or anything inside the app so I don’t know where else
33. [R5] 5/5 · US It’s fun and i’m #1 in the game: Been playing the game for about 2 months and i’ve been #1 in the floors for about a month now still waiting for someone to pass me.
34. [R22] 1/5 · US Can’t log in with apple: Just opened the game. Right out of the gate, it won’t let me log in with Apple, and that’s the only option to link your account. I am not gonna start playing the game if I can’t save my progress. So disappointing. From the few minutes that I played it, it looked kinda cute.
35. [R44] 3/5 · US Abandoned. 😢: I’m almost done with the game, which is disappointing. It says a new level is coming soon, but nothing has come the entire time I’ve been playing. Please add more levels! Update February 27 2025: Please add a way to save the game so it can be played across multiple devices if desired. Also, thank you for adding events, but please add more levels.
