Summoners Greed Reviews

I’ll start by saying, it’s a decent mobile game. Nothing incredibly ground breaking but it functions as expected & is enjoyable for a mobile game. Based off that alone I’d probably leave 3-4 stars but I saw something that just rubbed me wrong…. A $50 pack (EVEN THAT IS “50% Off”!!!) which includes 3 “legendary” characters & a bunch of in-game currency.

That’s a ridiculous amount of money to spend on a pack for a decent mobile game, let alone a good one. I understand there’s people out there that would buy that but think about it. Console/PC games that are unbelievable with the latest graphics, in-depth stories/lore & interactive gameplay charge $50-60 for the whole game. You’re telling me you want the same price for a couple characters for a mobile game we will end up deleting in a few days/weeks/months anyway? It would be reasonable if such a pack were $5-10 but $50? While we’re on this matter too, it’s standard issue these days for mobile games that show ads (I understand you need to make money) to offer a single pack for usually a couple bucks to eliminate ads forever but this game doesn’t offer that. Why force people to watch your ads if they actually enjoy your game & just want to play rather than watch while still reaping those extra benefits. Just some food for thought.

This is a great game and I love the concept yet you have these events where basically you can only watch ads to get the monster summoning stones and if you get it from in game rewards you hardly even get anything at all. The only way you are getting that special monster is if you literally sit there for 24 hours straight just watching ads. Also after you finish all your waves you don’t even get any rewards for finishing the wave.... what is even the point in making it to a high wave if you don’t even get anything?!?! These rewards are honestly kinda cheap. VERY CHEAP*
Trash game but again if this gets fixed then the game will be infinitely better. Also you just kinda sit there in battle mode only and you really can’t do anything else. Probably the most boring unrewarding game at the moment if you ask me. This game is definitely not worth your time I promise anyone who is even good at this game most likely payed money because they didn’t want to have to go through 24 hours of ads!! Do not expect to get anything good honestly. You may get a good monster but that will not do anything for you to help you get more stuff in the end.
NEEDS An update big time!!!
Don’t waste your time I promise you playing this game is not worth anything. It offers you very trash stuff. No matter how much time you put into the game there is not much difference ever being made.

After dumping almost 24 hours into the game I’ve deduced several things. 1: The game itself is quite simple and straight forward, if you like mindless minimal effort games this is for you. Unfortunately that can be a double edged sword as the game itself can get boring. 2: Don't waste your time buying summoning stones, the summoning probabilities are rigged. After 6 hours of grinding stones I managed to summon 6 Epic Devon Slimes IN A ROW! That’s a 1 in 205 chance! For the price of stones to quantity of stones it’s not worth it just to not get any legendaries or uniques. 3: The rewards....There is almost none. Beating a mini boss after each 10 levels you get a handful of green stones (3-6) that you can get literally by waiting till an Ad pops up. The only thing thats rewarding is the coin goblin that occasionally runs through at lower levels. Clearing a whole difficulty yields no rewards as well which makes choosing a higher one pointless. Sadly that fact makes playing the game feel pointless. 4: Work on the rewards, Fix the rigged summoning chances, add an actual reward to beating a whole round, and nerf the healing boss’s skill.

I appreciate the no ads thing they are doing with the game. That is the only reason I am giving it two stars. You have the option to get more coins/games or summoning stones with watching ads but thats the only time they are brought up.

I wanted to try the game after seeing so many "meme" advertisements. And after I did I can say that it is boring. It's an idle game with no idling. You stop playing and all you can earn is coins to upgrade your monsters. You can also watch an ad to double that amount when you come back. But there is no round progression when you idle, so you have to sit through the slow wave progressions either mindlessly (because if you "idle" and come back you can rack up to thousands. I went to sleep one night and came back with 26,000) or slog through and just barely get by with the power ups. But with where I was at all I was doing was putting my phone down and doing something else. Whenever I encountered a challenge I just went back 10 waves and came back when I had enough coins to level up my monsters to a sufficient level to beat whatever the problem was.

When I first got this game, i thought it looked lazy and thrown together. The more I played, the more fun it became though. I still play this game, because its fun and addicting. There are a lot of improvements it could use to make this game worth playing for the amount of time it takes. Its mostly quality of life improvements. There are SO MANY instances where I think “man, it would be a lot easier if I could do this instead of this”. One of the biggest ones is there is no title screen of any sort. The closest thing you get is literally level select. When I started playing, the difficulty seemed fun and challenging to see what you could do to improve and get further. Until you level up one monster to max and its power goes up exponentially. Like a really steep slope in power gaining. One morning you struggle with the first 30 waves and when you wake up the next day you have 200k coins to level up a monster to lv 300 and now you can beat the revenge level. (Almost) those are just 2 huge factors, and I could go on and on, but i have other things to do lol. Its a fun addicting game, but it was really just thrown together and there are no quality of life updates. Or just improvements in general.

It was fun and unique for a long time, but then I started having trouble advancing. Found videos online of things that could help like using speedy and towers that freeze or stun to keep enemies in place and help out. Then they added mythical gems which had me excited, but the drops are for purple and up from it instead of legendary and up and I only need legendaries and higher at this point, so that isn’t very helpful either. To top it off, when they added it, they added challenges for getting the gems to summon mythics, and took out the freezing mechanic that had been in for so long. Now I can’t access the content that gets the most gems and have no idea how they expect anyone to do that. Lastly, the only monster I don’t have other than the mythics is hellhound. They switch them out weekly and don’t give any kind of game notifications when they are available. I find out about it when I only have a day or a few hours and in 3 runs only have him at a quarter to unlock him.

TLDR: Add freezing mechanic back as that is players using mechanics wisely, make the mythic gems get legendaries and mythics only, and add a way to send notifications when new weekly’s creatures start.

Once you’re drawn in by the funny memes, they’ve got you, and it’s important to remember the goal here is to take your money one way or another; nobody put time and resources into this just for fun.

A lot of players use click bots to advance during the idle time so they don’t have to sit around watching ads all day, which on top of just not playing for 12 hours at a time is the only way to generate money for upgrades without using real world currency. Other than that, you don’t really play the game is my other complaint. Aside from “summoning” and casting the occasional time-locked-recharge spell, you kinda just sit there and see if your lines hold up against the enemy. I beat the final stage on Hard while my phone was down and didn’t even realize I’d won. It’s honestly not worth it, cause it absolutely will entice you to spend some of your cash to advance more quickly. Don’t get sucked into the cycle. The joke ads aren’t good enough to make the game higher quality than it is. It’s…y’know, fine, but it’s not the wholesome community game they try to convince you it is; they’re after your money and they do a good job playing their users for it.

The annoyance of the “Invite Friends” function not working. I’ve used that button several times to invite friends from Facebook and collect rewards, but when I finally met up with one of the friends I invited, they said they received nothing of the sort. So it’s annoying to click that button and see all the cool rewards, only to realize I cannot receive ANY OF THEM, even if I tried. It’s frankly not fair. If you’re going to give the option to receive rewards for inviting people for rewards, at least give other messenger options other than just Facebook… If not, then at least make those rewards available by in-game activities. For example, you could start offering those daily, or weekly, puzzle-type mini games that’s shown in the first image of SummonersGreed Store images for SummonersGreed, and use those “invite friends” rewards for that mini game. That way it’s fair for everyone, and it’s a fun new inclusion of another game mode so people aren’t getting bored of the general app itself. Also, the puzzle image on SummonersGreed Store page wouldn’t false advertisement in that case.

Other than that, SummonersGreed is pretty enjoyable as a nice pass time. Good for strategizing and keeping the mind entertained with the adorable graphics and simple gameplay, as well as the excitement of gatcha monster summoning!

This a very fun game I just have a suggestion st the moment I would love to be able to see stats as far as having somewhere I could tap on and see how much total damage has done by each monster and what each monster’s stats are now equal to after being placed next to things like Speedy & Mighty just so that I can better strategize. Otherwise rn I can’t think of anything else I’d currently add or change. Again, this game is very fun and exciting it’s different from other idle games in the sense that you can still effect game play with certain spells during rounds and can even upgrade your monsters mid round which I enjoy.

Edit: I feel like the invite rewards should be rethought out. They don’t seem worth it. Yeah you get a Legendary after 20 invites but 20 is a lot of invites and the chances of that many ppl accepting your invitation, in my own opinion, are pretty slim to none. If we could atleast be credited for our attempt to invite ppl it would make more sense to me but rn at one invite you only get 10 purple gems which you can also get watching two ads and ad opportunities are so frequent (not in an annoying way) that I’d much rather just watch two ads than to even attempt to send an invite at this point. Just saying. Praying you guys have much success 🙏🏼💯

Ok let’s start with i downloaded this game because of all the ads i saw and i genuinely enjoy the game! it’s a lot of fun and when they say it’s self grinding it’s correct you can select auto play and it will collect currency while your doing other stuff! i love that part of the game!
Summoning: i think this needs a little work, summoning is easy and all the materials are easy to get but the drop rates make me want to cry, first there are no percentage rates shown so you don’t know what your in for. in the mythic summons which you only get a few a week for free in over 100 summons i only for one mythic which feels terrible after a month of grinding for that.
my other issue is i purchased a $10 bundle for those mythic gems i noted a above and the game crashed and i didn’t receive my draws or my gems back so i contacted the company asking for simply getting my gems back but they never responded after 3 weeks of waiting this was very irritating for me.
i love the progression and gameplay! i feel like towards the end game there is too much grinding required! you easily get to a specific level after a couple weeks of playing and then the next level is so hard you have to grind! (A LOT!) for probably months just to complete the next stage, it go boring to me after that point but for the 2 months i played this game i overall give it a 4.5/5 i highly recommend especially if your able to grind the game when your not doing anything!

It's a great game! I have almost nothing to complain about. What I think really needs to change is that there are sooo many monsters that I can get... YET when I get a common summon I get a point for a monster I already have....WHY. There was so many other ones I could get. This has happened 5 TIMES 4 of them with the common and 1 with the epic! At the time of the summon I only had 3 out of 9 epic monsters. Please fix that problem in a future update. Aanndd maybe add a thing so you can make your own monster using the enemies body parts that sometimes drop and the cost will depend on how good it is. The player would be able to choose between in paying with orbs, gems, or coins. Thank you and please consider these things into consideration. If you read it, you don't have to add it or agree with it. Just PLEASE, reply. That way I know you actually took time into reading it and replying. Thank you.

I’m usually a person who ignores ads, but this game’s ad in particular caught my eye. First off, the slogan was “We paid for this ad, please try out game”. To me, this shows that the people who made the game are honest people who genuinely want people to try their game because they worked hard on it. There are no obnoxious ads glaring at me while I play the game. So far, all of the ads have been offered not forced which I think is crucial for a good game. On top of that, the ads are an appropriate length (not a 30 second ad with another 10-20 seconds waiting for the “x” to show up), and the ads seem to be for genuine games rather than for money grabbing games that shove ads down your throat. Now a days, I feel like it’s hard to find a game where the developers are sincere and proud of the game that they produce. I whole heartedly believe that the developers of Summoner have pure intentions with this game.

I just downloaded the game three days ago I absolutely love the game. It’s idle but still has a bit of control that I have to watch for. I like that it feels like the seller has items according to the amount of money you have saved up. As far as problems with the game I don’t have any at all; it feels really well created. I would like to voice a few opinions however; one being that there doesn’t feel like it has its own main menu and I see why because it doesn’t need one. But it would be cool if there was a menu at the start where instead of just going into gameplay I could maybe go into the shop to upgrade/summon monsters. There are many times when I would have stuff saved up and have to go into the game to buy/summon only to stop the gameplay. Another thing is the game feels a bit slow if there was a option to increase/decrease the speed that would be nice. Lastly I get the mechanic of strategically placing monsters before the game starts but there are times where I would have like to been able to replace them at different points in my run such as when I get to like wave 30 or 40 I would have gladly appreciated being able to change my old monsters positions out.

Overall I really enjoy the game nice simple and tons of fun looking forward to seeing if you guys do more with the game or move on to a different project.

I’ve been playing the game for two days nonstop and it’s pretty fun. I think more monsters definitely need added to freshen it up and give more variety even there is a good bit. I think adding in different summoner outfits or characters and extra abilities per summoner could be a cool way to add more variety instead of monsters. Like a summoner ability similar to the fireball and Lightning but like a unique ability. Buying to speed the game up a little weird of a thing to do but I understand monetizing a free game. I’m not to far in the game so I don’t know if this is in it but a cool concept would be instead of freezing or slowing the hero’s you could have a monster or ability make them walk back where they came from like a posses or fear ability. I wanted to get into game design and I’m taking college courses for this and I think this game has a lot of potential. I love the ads I think you guys are doing a good job on them in this fake ad apocalypse.

Hi I love the game that’s the first word that comes to mind-awesome. I got the game years ago and I recently downloaded it again. I could never get past that one wave. Until you guys gave us 600 SUMMONING GEMS!!!
I got so many good monsters and shredded the game till the end. I just have a few ideas though. You guys should add more evolutions and make the gems easier to get. A fast forward button that goes to x2 then x3 if you wanted the game to go faster would be nice. I also would love for you guys to add a “design a monster” feature where players can design a monster once every like 4 months and the top 10 get picked to be new monsters in the game. Also it would be awesome to be able to add more monsters to defend the chest not just 9; (12 at least. ) Well I hope all this isn’t too overwhelming (you don’t need to do this if you don’t want to) and I hope you respond. Bye! Go Summoners greed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve been playing this game for a little over a week and that is rare for me. This game is a must if you love tower defense or just need a time killer. My only criticism for the game is the in app purchases. With many other games, the problem with the in app purchases is that they are unbalanced and make the game pay to win. When you’re a new player in this game, you get a lot of deals with a timer that ends. Unfortunately, the deals will never pop up again. In my case, I had a deal where you would get double ad rewards but the timer went out for me. Since I didn’t purchase the offer when I started the game, I can never buy the offer ever again. This is something that I would like to see changed because I would love to buy double ads even if it were a higher/ original price. Other than that, this is a well put game and I have nothing but positive things to say. I’m excited for the future content!

Alright so I’ve been playing for about a week now and I’m already 122 on the leaderboard for evil summoner normal the game is really addicting and I have most of the monsters 3 gold stars there’s a couple things I’d really love to see added to the game such as an endless mode (with a leaderboard ) and id really love to see more added monsters but I really enjoyed the difficulty spike from joint revenge normal to hard and I’m not getting board but one thing I’d also like to add is that the coins are slow even with the 2x ability the only time coins really add up quickly is when you max out most of your cards and get coins from duplicates but other than that you guys have made an amazing game and I really enjoy it and I look forward to the future of your game!! Oh and another thing I know you guys have heard enough about slime king mighty speedy but I also think that infernus mighty speedy is also quite a busted character mine is level 435 and I prefer him over slime king so that’s another thing to look into

I am so delighted with this game! It’s something my spouse showed me and I downloaded it to see something he was very passionate about…and to my surprise I fell in love with it too! It became something we bonded over. We help each other sometimes get past levels, do the ads, or collect the gems.

As I was playing this evening, I came to thought that would make the game slightly better then it is now! There should be a monster rearrange option in edit mode. That way as the levels get harder, the player has the option to move around the already chosen monsters for the challenge. The rearrange option would be accessible by paying coins. Each time it is used in one challenge, the price goes up in value.

I just believe that each set of enemies has their own drawbacks as well as strengths. I also believe the monsters do as well and it would be beneficial to be able to rearrange the chosen ones so we can get a better chance at winning the wave and understanding of the characters we not only face but use as well.

I thought being forced to watch ads and always pulling bad loot when I did a random pull was fundamental to iOS idle games, but then I saw the ad for this game on Instagram. They all talked about how different this game was and since I had just gotten bored with my last time waster game, I figured I’d give it a (skeptical) try.
When I started using the easiest method to pull new monsters, I was expecting it to be like other idle games (they let your second or third pull be a good one just to make you feel like their “random” drops could really drop something good, but then it never happens again), but boy was a wrong. I’ve been pulling a really solid ratio of common to legendary the whole time. The afk mechanic is actually worth something with the sheer amount of coins you get back. The gameplay requires a level of strategy that has really pulled me in. To top it all off, it doesn’t require you to be idle. You can actively play for hours, or you can just let it sit and reap the rewards.
All that being said, the best way I can describe this game is that it is now the title I’ll be comparing all other idle games to.
10/10

PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU KEEP WITH THE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT THEME!!!!!!
I love a challenge! And it makes it that much sweeter when I can beat a wave I wasn't able to beat before. For example. The orc stage 2 was far more difficult than anything else in the game, I thought the king was hard at first before I tried the orcs. I was only able to make it to wave 24 or something like that and wasn't able to beat it for like 3 days until I figured my life out and won. So make sure that when you bring in other stages (btw robots, aliens, zombies, clowns (because IT was great) and whatever else would be pretty sick to battle in further updates) make the hardness a consistent thing.
Update: If y'all could possibly bring back the speed boost (I know it causes some players games to crash) but something like a x4 boost would be perfect, cause then the player can decide. Also increase the gold drop? Maybe? I have to grind for hours just to get enough to level my monster (I like to upgrade 50 levels at a time) that would be nice. Probably like a x4 coin drop too.
But that's really it. And like I said in another review, a different format for the map. Like changing up the path the enemies take, almost like a customization. And an endless mode. Those are just my thoughts.
Keep up the good work. 👌

I’ve been enjoying the game overall, but the latest event monster is infuriating. It took a lot of effort to get the summon stones to summon it, and I saved up some coins to bring it up to par with my team right away. Then I put him in and find you’ve arbitrarily made him extremely expensive to upgrade for no reason! 500 coins for level 2, 1000 for 3, and so on. His stats don’t go up a proportionate amount and so he’s rendered useless. The only way to bring his stats up to par would be to get more summon stones and power him up through extra summons. And since you can buy summon stones this seems like a way to cheat people out of their money

Apart from this I’ve rather liked the game’s handling of micro transactions, as it gives plenty of resources through play so I never felt obligated to pay to progress. I really liked that aspect of the game and this inane event monster cost is really souring that goodwill fast.

Up till this my rating was 5 stars, going to 3 now since the game is enjoyable in spite of this. But seriously, what the heck pixel

I love this game so much. Just downloaded this a few days ago. My significant other and I can’t stop playing! For all those complaining about paying for 2x speed...c’mon it’s like $3. Compared to console games that are $50+, you can spare to support all the work they’ve put into a game that’s finally not pay to win, and it’s got just as much entertainment. I absolutely love how you can simply play a long time to earn gems. Yes it takes a bit to get a good amount but that’s how it should be. The recurring achievements are really helpful with earning them. If you’re THAT impatient then you can pay for your gems with your money instead of your time. Their system keeps you interested and grinding for new power ups, allowing you to never get ‘tired’ of the game. Can’t wait for new evolutions that are coming. Please make lots!! I love working towards discovering and earning these evolutions. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK MAKING AN AMAZING GAME!

Great game! It brings back the nostalgia of OG tower defense, with a new enough twist to keep you engaged!

I showed my wife, and now she’s playing as well!

The only downside to this game is I feel like it could use some polish. There seems to be frequent updates, but here’s a few things I’ve noticed while playing:

The UI is a little tricky to learn at first. I didn’t find where to change the map till my second day of playing.
I feel as though they could be a lot more descriptive with the hero abilities. Let’s take the mythical hero Zeus for instants, hes card doesn’t mention the lightning chain damage! That is a huge oversight as that is what makes him such a good late game character!
I’d like to also see a “Sweep” option for the maps you’ve already beat. Because at first, summoning new heros is rather frequent. But it slows down rather fast after you’ve beat the first 3 or 4 maps. And adding the ability to sweep maps could let you gain more summoning orbs without having to comment 10+ minutes to a map.
More Evolutions! As of this review, there are only 8 possible evolutions! With the large amount of heros available, that seams rather underwhelming.
Again, this is a VERY good game! My hopes are that the above comments can help make your game even better! Keep those updates coming!! I can’t wait to see how this game develops over time!!

I have played his game for a few months now and it is great! One thing I have comes to notice is how annoying it is to get legendary cards, I like the idea of being able to summon monsters that are rare or above and epic and above, but I think there should be a legendary summon, this would have to be very expensive and would probably cost a lot of gems or maybe a different currency, and maybe you would need to summon a certain amount of times. Also I love the Tier system / star system but I think there should be maybe a platinum or rainbow star and you would need to summon 100 of the monster to get it, or something like that. Keep up the good work! (Also I have a question, how does the new afk feature work? Does it produce more coins if your monster’s levels are higher? Or is it a constant coin production regardless of how good your monsters are?)
