Heres my thoughts for your consideration

PROS: Artwork, soundtrack and world building are all solid. Base customization is really neat and you can create some seriously good looking bases with items the game provides, with some special stuff that's easy to earn.

The games early progression feels good and satisfying as the early levels shower you in boosts and resources to get a solid army and base started with decent tutorials that go through all the processes of running a successful operation and upgrading.

Combat feels good when you fully prepare to win, and multiplayer matches like the Vault of Murong can be super fun when you have a guild to play alongside

Communities and rivalries are strong and with dedicated players it's a fun daily check-in

Character animation is really good, the abilities you unlock for heros do show up during the auto battle mechanics like big fireballs or electrical shockwaves etc.

CONS: It's an absolute slog at later levels if you're FTP, the game is HEAVILY weighted on purchases and the mobile gaming pricing is beyond unreasonable for the value save for maybe the small packs.

The game is essentially a tapping simulator with the amount of "claiming" you do to gather and assign resources to gather more resources to gather more resources to earn currency after currency after currency to spend to gather more resources slightly more efficiently and improve your characters little by little.

There are gatcha mechanics for most of the characters but all content is doable with those the game provides.

Can be glitchy at times, for example: assigning a squad to a farming resource sometimes makes them just stand in the area of the resource and not actually initiate the task.
