๐Ÿ‘ Pros: visually nice, very nice soundtrack, fun game play, very FTP friendly
๐Ÿ‘Ž Cons: There were moments using characters where the ability felt less like a tutorial on how to use the basic attack pattern, and more like trying to play a Wikipedia page like a rhythm game; only a select few characters, but this is just me being nitpicky. Another downside for me was the grinding for materials to level up characters for instance, there is NO auto battle of stage skip anywhere to be found, so to get any mats of any variety you had to go and grind that stage HARD, not game breaking, but extremely tedious, more then I would like to play.
๐ŸŽฎ Gameplay: Feels very similar to Punishing Gray Raven, which is do really like. There's a lot of variety to the characters, but one thing that took some getting use to was that going into a fight you select a team of three, but you can only use the main-selection on the trio, the leader; you cannot switch between them on the fly, no chaining together burst of damage which was a bit alien to me at first but wasn't as large of a thing as I suspected it would be.
๐Ÿ“– Storyline: I can't speak about this even though I got to like chapter 11 in the main story, I haven't "read it" as deeply as PGR, I don't understand it enough to give it a fair rating.
๐Ÿ•น๏ธ Controls: As I mentioned earlier it's got a flow similar to PGR, but there are characters where it feels like a mix between Genshin with all attack options on screen at all times vs PGR with it's unique signal orb approach. There are characters that for me personally we're easier to to control then others, but generally a lot of fun to try using them in different combos with each other.
Side note: I'll also be doing a PGR review as from the mentions in this review I have indeed played it quite in depth and extensively, so it would be just if I did.

If you made it all the way to chapter 11, I definitely recommend going through chapter 12 (Dreams, Undreamed). The story really ups it's quality in that chapter!

Totally with you on the grinding part. Tedious but still a fun game!

๐ŸŽฎ Gameplay: ๐Ÿ‘Ž Cons: tโ€™s a good game, but the mechanics can get a bit junky at times. The game can be a bit confusing when it comes to events, limited banners, controls, character upgrades, etc. ๐Ÿ‘ Pros: I havenโ€™t played in a while but recently I re-downloaded the game and it is jam packed with content! ๐Ÿ‘ Pros: The game also offers a lot of free-bee genshin-equivalent primogems, so you get a whole lot of free stuff on first log-in.

Initial impressions of this game: it's pretty decent. The gameplay is fast paced and addicting. It's similar to PGR, but with some different mechanics. ๐Ÿ‘ Pros: The sound design and music is good, makes the gameplay more engaging. Voice acting (in English at least) is just OK. I appreciate the effort but nothing special. I like how the level up mechanics are similar to the source material. ๐Ÿ‘Ž Cons: The story does not take its time. They really want to get you into the action and teach you all the mechanics.ย  Some people may like that, but for me, it breaks the immersion. A lot of exposition to explain story beats rather than taking the time to show you. The pacing is too fast.

Honestly phenomenal game. Story is decent at the start, then gets real good around chapter 4 then ends great. Combat is easily the best I've played in these sorts of games. And character design is great (subjectively of course) definitely recommend as a must have if you're a phone gamer. And if you have a PC it's even better. I'm an avid Genshin Impact fan (although it has it's problems) and although this isn't a "genshin killer", after playing the combat and traversing in this game it is very hard to want to go back to genshin.
