An idle RPG that’s pretty but shallow - Eternal Evolution Quick Review
43K View2022-11-12
Whether you love idle games or not, there’s nothing like a title that demonstrates just how far we’ve come on mobile devices. With its impressive graphics, diverse backgrounds, colorful cast of characters (they even have freaking Guan Yu in this game), summons, and multiple game modes, Eternal Evolution certainly checks all the boxes the genre offers. But is checking boxes enough?
THE STORY
The opening moments of Eternal Evolution introduce a story that’s as convoluted as it is nonsensical. A group of heroes face down a giant monster named Torques in an attempt to recapture a device known as a “drive key” from some opposing group called the “Evo League.” The game throws a ton of other fantasy terms at the player, including “Candalon squad,” “Giant Tower,” and a robot named “Woodpecker I.” It’s all a confusing mishmash, but the good news (?) is that narrative is not much of a focus in the game at all beyond the first hour or so.
PLATFORMS
Eternal Evolution is available for iOS and Android devices. I played on iOS and didn’t run into any technical issues.
TIME PLAYED
I spent around five hours playing Eternal Evolution, one of them completely idle, watching my loot build up. The game has an auto-battle feature that allowed my characters to fight the enemies by themselves and even use special abilities without my input when their rage meters were filled. Most of my interaction in combat came from positioning my five-character team to allow them to do the most damage or tank properly.
WHAT’S AWESOME
• The characters. The heroes look great in Eternal Evolution and are quite unique. There are over two hundred heroes to collect, including cyborgs, dragons, robots, humanoids, and even a dude who rides a motorcycle and wields a gunblade! Every character has a unique special ability makes the collection aspect of Eternal Evolution even more enticing.
• Quick gameplay progression. Battles are pretty fast, and I managed to get through chapters relatively quickly. This meant accumulating new gear, loot, and experience. I had a good time collecting goodies and equipping my characters with upgraded swag.
• Game mechanics. Despite how cool the visuals are, the main problem I have with games like these is that the gameplay itself comes up short. You can only spend so many hours on a fully automated game like this before combat becomes repetitive. I wish I could have done more than move the characters around before battles.
SHOULD YOU PLAY IT?
Eternal Evolution is ultimately another gacha idle RPG in an already oversaturated genre. It’s by no means the worst of the bunch, and it looks very pretty. Still, the lackluster narrative, repetitive combat features, and even the lack of character voice-overs make this title easily forgettable compared to some other entries in the genre. By no means is it a waste of time, but ultimately Eternal Evolution hasn’t managed to hold my attention long-term.

Eternal Evolution : A Quick Game Review
Eternal Evolution is a new RPG Strategy Mobile Game with lots of great in-game contents. There are a lots of amazing cool looking heroes (waifus) to collect in this game. The gameplay mechanics is pretty simple and cliché though. But the gameplay experience is pretty smooth with very good graphical features.
There is a 5% chance to get Elite Heroes in this game, which I think is a very good rate. With this rate, you can rack up a lot of amazing heroes in no time. The game also seems to be generous in giving away gifts and in-game rewards to the players. If you start now, you can claim cool pre-registration rewards, which contain a free Elite Hero, high quality equipment set and lots of other amazing rewards!

Idle Guardians: Idle RPG Games | "Worth Playing?"
Idle Guardians is an Idle RPG mobile platform game. The gameplay mechanics was surely a cliché with a lots of other idle RPG mobile games but there were some unique features as well that picked my interest. I just loved the classic RPG progression in this game where you can gradually recruit a lot of heroes into your team and getting a lot of loots in the battles.
Talking about the gameplay, all we have to do is to kill the enemies wave after wave. Enemies will get strong as we go to higher stages. To get stronger, we have to keep upgrading our heroes with the golds that we get as loot drops from the monsters. We also do get equipment from time to time, that can provide our heroes with massive stats boost. I really appreciated the hero skill and the skill animation in this game which made the gameplay more interesting. Even though the game is supposed to be IDLE where all the controls are supposed to be idle type, but the skill commands were supposed to be triggered manually. I somehow appreciated the manual skill command which I think was a bit engaging. Plus, you have got a lot of heroes to recruit in this game with different abilities and fighting styles.
