This is definitely the game I pull up most often. It’s repetitive but no more than any other match-three game, and the RPG element is cute.
At first I thought the game drains your health between levels, much like other reviewers. But it doesn’t - it sort of replays the health loss you had throughout that level. So, for example, if you are fighting the 2nd foe with 343 health to start, and end with 299 health, you will see the health pop back up to 343 at the end of the fight, then quickly scale down to 299. It definitely gives the impression that your health is being drained, but it’s more a glitch than a nefarious scheme.
Another reviewer mentioned replaying levels to earn money, and +1 to that. When I start to hit levels I can’t handle, I re-run the previous “land.” By the time I get back where I started, I’m generally good to go.
But oy the ads. I would happily pay for a premium version of this game so I didn’t have to skip past an ad Every. Single. Fight. I don’t mind some ads - especially the watch-a-video-to-revive option. But there are three different kinds of ads in this game, and it feels like about half the time playing is spent clicking past them.
