Reviews for "Rise of Champions"

like the game alot... but i nvr have enough money... and now i have a bug where i max out after the 1st hour ... at 75 gold with my bank at lvl 4 and my keep at lvl 5 it tells me my max should be up by +375 in the bank so i assume my max is supposed to be 450

I'm Level 13 now, so I've played quite a bit of the game so far.

Good:
1. Depth of strategy both in build and battle
2. Graphics
3. Music
4. Different game modes
5. Breadth of gameplay and customizable character choices
6. Combination of elements from RPG's, MMO's, and other types of games

Bad:
1. A few times the game froze in battle and I had to close the window
2. Not enough of a comprehensive game manual. Lacks instructions for things like Skulls, Guilds, and Tournaments.
3. Daily Tasks and Progress that are almost impossible or are a pain in the ass, such as the Progress objective to Complete 2 Daily Tasks, while one of the Daily Tasks is Win A Brawl- I don't have time to wait 4 hours to play a brawl

Ugly:
1. There doesn't seem to be any more Single Player Story Event Battles after you beat Void Ritual. If so, I've lost 50% of my interest in this game. The story battles are the best part of the game imo. Great story and variety of enemies as the plot progresses. Replaying them would repetitive and boring. I'll keep playing in the hopes that leveling up my party will unlock new story event levels...
2. Hard to find real players. I versus the AI in Single Battle about 80% of the time.
3. There doesn't seem to be a way to change my party's composition after I get 4 characters (I have 2 warriors 1 mage 1 rogue and want to experiment with 1 warrior 2 rogues 1 mage)
4. I've played about 30 Single Match Battles so far, including about 6 PvP battles (and won like 5 of them), but I still have a 0 Tournament rating and am unranked. How come?

Overall, a great game, even with the annoying construction cooldown and obstacles designed for players to spend real money on the game, which I understand. More single player Story Events progression after Void Ritual (taking the player all the way to the Level Cap, if there is one) would be my biggest suggestion for improvement though.

#1 - If you experience freezing/crashing please try using Low graphics and also making sure your browser isn't overloaded with memory intensive websites/applications.

Ugly
#1 - The story is ever evolving and we plan on continuing to add new events after the holiday season ends. That said, Rise of Champions primary focus is the intense PvP combat and eventually serious Guild v Guild competition as well.
#2 - The only reason for this is you're on at a less populated time or you're in a level range where there's currently a lull in active players. Once you reach 20 you will have no problem finding a ton of PvP.
#3 - Party -> Respecialize
#4 - What's your userID? I'll take a look.

2015 plan: More story, better GvG, new level cap/skills/items :)

a couple times now, I've opened rewards to find items and they didn't show up in my inventory. Reloaded game, they still weren't there. What's that about?

FrozenTorch responds:

What kind of items? Shards/skulls/resources are never added to your inventory. Cosmetics are a separate inventory shown by clicking 'Cosmetics' on the Inventory screen. If you're talking about armor/weapons, is your inventory full? Do you have sorting set to show the item you're looking for? There are many possible reasons you may not see a specific item.

By the way, I notice you've favorited our game and have played it quite a bit. Why did you vote 2 stars when you had a question?

Been playing for a couple days but came across a bug. When I fought the AI in the Arena, The timer ran out (it was AI's turn) and it would not continue on, it was like the AI had got stuck and couldn't make a move or something. So I had to quit that battle. Overall good game, great time waster.

FrozenTorch responds:

Yes, this is a known bug we're working on. All you can do is either wait for your AI to finish the battle serverside or refresh.

This game is really nicely done. It's a fine balance of simple to learn / hard to master, there are multiple elements such as questing / city building / time management and resource allocation. There's something for most all fans of RPG's.

Graphics are not stepped up much from Legend of the Void, but that keeps the game size manageable and play-rate fine.

Excellent job guys - a must play!
