This game came out in 2021 as an Apple Arcade exclusive, which means I have not played it, and quickly forgot it existed.

It’s a mobile game, so adjust your expectations accordingly, but this review caught my eye, as this game apparently has no time gates or microtransactions (or, at least it didn’t three years ago).

It apparently came out on Steam in June, and there’s a free demo there that I might check out.

Details are weirdly hard to come by, but it looks like it will launch on Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox later this month.

Has anyone played this thing? Is it worth your time and money?

    Oh it’s that mobile game. It’s basically a Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes clone.

    Do you like grinding for 5,000 shards of a character to unlock them so they can be equipped with items you grinded 5,000 times to get leveled so you can fight 5,000 generic battles to win the campaign?

    If not avoid this title even if they paid you to play it. It’s not worth it even with the non-microtransaction version.

    I played for a while and it was decent but it gets rather old/repetitive after a while. I was happy to play it on Apple Arcade since it didn’t require me to explicitly purchase. You win battles to unlock characters and upgrades, etc. The storyline was okay. The battle sequences just get tiresome after a while and that’s pretty much the bulk of what the game is.
