Blades and Rings Reviews

Why advertise the Gunner and the Summoner if players must top up money to even be able to play those classes or the new Shadow Assassin with a class change card? That doesn’t mean it’s available to start with right away and that’s false advertising. No one wants to play a game with all these cool classes if you have to pay for three of them at least. I want to play the game and invested a decent amount of money and time into the last character I played, but I stopped playing when I saw that I had to pay even more money just to change classes into a Summoner, Gunslinger or Assassin. I as a player want to play them without having to pay money. I am sure a lot of players wish for the same thing. I have been a fan and player since late 2017 when I first discovered this game and have since sunk at least 1k USD easily into this game. I dearly wish I could take that money back because I’m disappointed that many of the best features for free players who can’t put cash in are so ridiculously hard to get or unlock that they’re going to give up playing after a few weeks max because people drop money and now they’re impossibly farther than people who started at the same time as them. Please please please at the very least make Gunslinger, Summoner, and Assassin available to all players for free because I can almost guarantee more people would want to play if ALL classes were available from the start to pick from.

Hi so I’ve played for about 7 months I’m lvl R462 Mia46. Honestly I’m so addicted to this game that I can’t sleep. If you love growing from nothing to a god with tons of and tons and tons of different things to level and talent trees this game is for you. However the last event they stole our communities money by false advertisement. So this past “elf party” event they had a (Victor Genesis) labeled prize for 60 (candies) anyways you only get 1 candy per fire work you buy (each 80 diamonds) 62 diamonds is 1 dollar so do the math it’s expensive. Anyways when me and our worlds players opened the prize up guess what? It turned to (leader Genesis) a absolute rip off and I brought this to customer service 2 days ago and have not heard back from them and several of us want our money back or our Victor Genesis sent through the mail. That’s the least you can do. I love the game I recommend for anyone that has a lot of time on their hands to invest some time into this game however I will update this 1 star rating with a follow up on how they resolve this issue and if they truly care for their gaming community. Still guys give it a try but will wait and see if they stole our money or if it was an honest mistake. I’m currently on Dog server formally RatS1 along with rabbit S2 ect since new cs merge pls correct this mistake leader is a 4pc set it’s not a 10pc Victor. No one wants to spend 60 candies on leader......

I've played many of these games, and usually even in the p2p games you can still get needed items without paying. Well not here. Over the years these developers have gotten incredibly cheap. You want gear, buy it, you want weapons, buy it. You want anything that you could possibly need to be able to play the game, buy it. And we're are not talking small amounts either, everything is so overly priced is just pathetic. They have run off more than 3/4 of the players. People quit every day because they tired of farming for nothing. On average I kill 30 bosses a day, that's 2700 bosses a week (no small feat either) and get nothing. Only thing to ever drip from bosses are quills (you won learn to hate this word) quills are items for lvl 10 players and usually only needed for a week and then even they are done with them. But lvl 800 bosses drip them like they are going out of style ( and they did, a long time ago) say anything to customer support and you get pie typed letters that usually have nothing to do with your inquiry or a letter basically telling you "better luck next time" This game used to be something special, something all players loved to play but over time they have gotten too greedy and now give players nothing and make you pay for everything.

I am fed up with this game after playing from the start two years ago. They over charge for everything and even when they advertise something in an event where you have to spend a lot of money, they end the event early without any warning (which is ironic because they only ended half of the event where some stuff was being rewarded for completing quests daily which also cost money but you could still get some free stuff). In a nutshell, they are crooks. They end the free stuff earlier than the event advertises so you spend more money trying to get to the last rewards. When you write to customer service you only get a pre written generated response telling you “there is no issue and sorry for the inconvenience” and nobody cares about doing the right thing even according to their advertisement. Let’s put it this way, If I had the money I’d hire a lawyer because they really take people’s money without honoring their own guidelines and announcements. I used to enjoy playing, now I hate it so much I’m trying to find a way to get my money back for false advertisement and complete lack of empathy and customer service.

I’ve been playing for nearly two years and it’s been apparent that the game runs better on non-Apple devices (feedback I’ve gathered from those on my server). Lately the lag issues and excessive app crashes make things unplayable. It’s kind of difficult to be competitive when dealing with a few seconds of lag between my device and the game server. I get the same result whether I’m on 200 Mbps WiFi or LTE data. Naturally customer service always blames some sort of user error, but I’ve tried every possibility and ruled out issues on my end. ...that and all the same complaints I hear about from other Apple users. I keep getting told to wait for the next update, but it’ll be the same thing as always: new content/events added, old bugs and issues unfixed, and new bugs and issues with the new stuff that was just added.
I’ve given this game a chance, I really have....but my time and money are feeling wasted on it. Time to move on.

After many complaints this game has yet to improve. It is still a pay to win game. Bullies are constant on this server even for a high level character. They have you buy diamonds for purchasing which is fine. But gotta love that they have you buy an item only for their to be a locked box included in that item for which you need to pay even more diamonds to open that up. So you basically are paying twice to get what you originally thought you were going to get. Trickery...

Every time I have contacted customer support for an issue it is always my fault and I should have done a better job? Seriously? When you have ten players fighting these giants in an event and the same two players claim all the rewards, literally ALL, while the rest are running around and get nothing there is a problem. Is it just coincidence that it happens to be the people who spent the most money on the game? Doubtful

Lots of crashes. More now that ever.

Been playing for about 6 months, started great and thought this was going to be a great game that I wouldn’t have to spend that much money on. Boy was I wrong. We all are to a point where you have to buy, beg, or steal equipment and gear. Drops started out great, but here we are going on a week plus of not getting a drop of anything of value. We all have a problem with buying equipment and gear because players are leaving the game for said above reasons. Our Server (S481) may have between 10 and 15 players. 8 of those players are in the same guild. As you can see not enough activity for the server to progress and grow. Registered a ticket with customer service about this and their word to me was “you need to play the game more”, my account of 3 characters stay logged on about 16 hours a day, so how much more can I play or grind for drops? This kind of thinking and attitude is spreading across our server (10-15 people) and across other servers as well. Will it change? I doubt it.

The game would be really good if it was from another company. This company is garbage. They break things every time they do an update and instead of fixing it, they leave it broken for a while and then just remove the event. People spend diamonds (which is the only way to be able to do ANYTHING in this game) on an event buying mats and they turn around and get rid of it instead of fixing it AND they don’t compensate you for it. Also they send out chests that tell you that you have to spend certain amount of diamonds to open (688 for example) but when you do it doesn’t open...... instead you actually have to spend almost 100 diamonds more to open even though the box clearly says spend 688. When you bring up anything to customer service they tell you to post a pic and they may or may not get to it lol..... they are extremely lazy. Again if this game was ran by another company it would be amazing. Don’t bother playing, so many better games out there.

So I received a reply to my original review which said 90% of this game is in Chinese. Instead of acknowledging or giving helpful information to get me back into the game they said if I have further questions go to their Facebook page. Where to begin.... 1 I don’t want to be your Facebook friend or interact with you on Facebook. I don’t have facebook I don’t like Facebook the world would be a much better place without that crap platform. You can quote me right to the creator of Facebook. 2 I see that many people have issues with your app and they pretty much all get the same canned response from you which leads me to believe that you have no intentions of helping anyone.... 3. I see a ton of fake ratings on here. 4. I have opened a complaint with apple support since I have actually spent money on my account and it’s now unplayable. If you don’t get it together your company can and will be barred from BladesandRings Store soon. Have a nice day

I've played this for quite a few years now and spent hard earned money on it as well. I was away for quite some time and have decided that I didn't want to put another dime into the game. So i asked for a full refund and let them know i was okay with being deleted from this game and even banned from this game as long as I received my full refund. They always come back with a non-caring statement of "Hi, if the order is complete and you have received the items, we cannot refund you. Please understand." I do not care about the items. Im wanting my money back so I can use the money on something that will benefit me better such as bills. Its not not like the amount of money I spent is going to severely hurt their bank account if they fully refunded me when they have people spending thousands on it in a week. I didn't want to have to post a review but this may be the only way I can get them to refund me.

I have played this game for quite some time and have spent money as well. Lately customer service has become so incompetent and stupid that I’m about to quit this game. I have been trying to get them to fix a problem since December 23rd and they are refusing to believe me and rectify the problem when I spent good money to do the event. I used to enjoy playing this game but it has become more and more of a pay to win game and god forbid you have any issues because their customer service does nothing to help and gives lame excuses as to why they can’t do anything about it. Every time they do an update there are bugs and glitches that take forever to fix and they don’t offer any compensation for their mistakes. If I could have given zero stars I would have. Please please don’t waste your time on this game

Hello, support team I’m kind of busy so I’ll get straight to the point, every time I open my blades and rings I get a notification about problem in my connection,but when I checked it there’s no problem at all. I opened my other apps I called my line of service there is no problem at all. The only one have a problem is the blades and rings.i message u on Facebook but the automated replied me said that I have to go online and report it to C.S but how do I go online if I can’t log in.

I hope you can reply to me soon because one day miss in your game will make you miss a whole lot

I have played for months and reached a high level and the moment I first played the game glitches have happened and the screen will either go purple or green. After the first Dragonborn update my game has gone completely useless. It’s not playable, more glitches, every time a new day starts I need to download the game over and over again. As if I deleted BladesandRings every time but didn’t. My armor that I originally had won’t show and I have T4 wings but only T1 wings show the whole time. Whenever the game needed an update everything went fine without any problems. Since the first Dragonborn update it requires and update and takes forever to the point the day is almost over and you can’t play. This game never use to take so much data but now it’s taken over all my data.

I would never recommend this game to anyone.

Well I am diablo that was from server s179 and in the beginning I loved the game played everyday even though it lagged and dropped I still love it but as of a few weeks ago I was put on a refund ban list and kicked from the game and after tons of messages and emails the developers have still not answered me so what I gather is after all the money I spent and time I put into my toon they just kick me for know reason I think is a scared move why not talk to me and let me get back into the game or something until I get some answers I am not happy with this game at all and don’t recommend to anyone at all. And how can’t I open a surport ticket if I am being banned for no reason other then spending money so until I get my toon back no I will not change my review I have made two tickets now and no answer with the problem not fixed yet

I rate it 1 stars fun to play but do not spend money !! There support is absolutely horrid !! I have been 3 days trying to get my diamonds added to my account and am going to have to have Apple refund !! There support can’t accept screen shots off a iPhone !! They send you to third party sites to upload screen shots tell u to copy and paste link then tell u they can’t accept them unless taken on a computer which I don’t have !! I have wasted countless time going up and down with them to accomplish nothing !! I pray none of u have to go thru this !!! If your a spender pick a different game !! This will end up more frustrating then fun !! Lol and don’t bother sending me the silly please open a support ticket cookie cutter answer I would rather cut off my right arm then deal with the horrid support !!

Hey!! This game is awesome but there’s some issues, I would be happy if everyone can have a name, like what in trying to say is that only one person should have one name, nobody else can have that name and that bugs me, takes me hours to find a name that’s not been used, again this game is great but that’s the only thing that bugs me cause almost all the names are taken so I would like more than one person have a name that someone else used.

So many glitches after the last too updates. I get thrown out of the game multiple times amongst some of the problems. Every new game play they’ve released so far has been glitched

Every time you send a ticket concerning a problem, the reply always sounds as if you’re some dumb potato. With the last update there’s two different starting times listed for an event. Sent a ticket asking them to please clarify which is the correct time. Got a reply stating: “UTC-4 American eastern time is server time. Please consider that too.” What in the world is that suppose to mean???

Not worth the time or money. And it does cost a good amount of money if you want to get anywhere with the game. Otherwise you’ll be bullied by stronger players who buy their way up.

I don't understand what people complain about. People get mad when someone steals their boss constantly, yeah it's a pvp zone for a reason. People complain that it's a pay to win, make friends with lots of people and you can be top 20 in almost everything without spending money. I will agree however that the servers die fast and that there should be new things added for the ones who don't spend money to have enjoyment. Please continue adding more new content and this rating will stay at a 5 star.

I have played blades and rings sporadically over several years and recently I had gotten back into the game with little trouble. However when I logged in today my game launched in an Asian language that I am unable to read. I first tried to look for an obvious button for customer support but could not find one. Next I went here and found a review with a reply from the developers listing a support email. When I contacted the support email I was sent an automated message saying they were receiving too many inquiries and gave off a sense that I would not receive help. I am willing to edit my rating but so far my customer service experience has not been good.

Game is good and fun to play until you run into 1 player whom spends. Then you become easy prey.

The servers die off super fast once a clear spending leader is established. Spending = winning. No chance at beating heavy spenders with deep pockets. Even a minor spender vs non spender is extremely lopsided.

Game could be fun for all but it’s a money grab instead. There are also flaws in the development. For example, they have options for free tunes every so many days. Well when you first click the free option if you incidentally double click, the button that is normally present to ‘use paid currency’ to procure runes, isn’t present but activates anyway. Takes your currency and then populated the intended free button.

Support is also TERRIBLE! They do nothing to help players whom have in game issues. They negotiate everything to be your fault then suggest they will ‘look into the issue’ and never follow through.

If you want a game to run idle...might be worth a look. If you want an experience...and want to spend money for entertainment...DO NOT LOOK HERE. TERRIBLE MANAGEMENT OF THE PLAYER EXPERIENCE!
