Summoners War: Chronicles Reviews

by Gul_Rose

Played many games, used to be fan of Summoner War until my account stolen and got no help from company to get back, even though I had payment proof for it. Even though I spend thousands of dollar on the game to support. 3 years later I wanted to give a chance to play their game again. Game is good but there is a big problem. New server, summoned 50 scrolls one shot and got 0 5star hero! Summoned together 10 and 10 to make drop rate higher. Expensive packages, drop rate is unacceptable. Played MLA, and other popular games in the past. I m not sure, if I ll continue this one. I don’t want to waste my money on a game which focused just on money! There is no fun when you summon 50 times together and get nothing from it!!! Game is good but need changes on drops. Quality is disappointment for me, especially for someone like me who is QA Tester. I could expect better work. NPC settings are terrible! They keep saying same thing every quests. Summoner war quality is better! Game need a lot of improvement. Graphics quality is really bad. I feel like I am playing on Atari or saga! Well, time change Com2us!!! There are bugs need to be fixed! Concept of the game is great but taken from another game, I don’t remember the name now. I waited a month to see what Com2us achieved! I think, they could do better after having Summoner Wars survive for many years!

This game is really beautiful and you can tell they put a lot of work into it but there are WAY to many elements to it and the scaling of the dungeons is way off. Once again ppl with money have gotten so far ahead it makes much of the play not even worth bothering. The skills seem off as well like none of them last for long enough. While playing you're having to dodge, use skills keep track of monsters while the orientation of the screen is fixed in weird position and opponents and obstacles are flying all around the play arenas and that makes it nearly impossible to keep track of everything. Good luck getting any monsters to max bc it costs an insane amount of gold, monster pieces and an materials and the especially the gold that can be earned is given in tiny amounts.

Starting off is awesome feels like a good game. Progression is good feels rewarding, until you get to mid game where you are forced to deviate from building a core team to waste resources on other mons to clear certain things. The only character that seems like that doesn’t matter as much on is the support character because you can heal your tank monster that you can get to 100k power long before your clef character will ever hit 100k. Runes are scarce, takes days to farm them, can only craft low-mid runes, and nothing to spend my 14k rune upgrade stones on. Their new battlefield mode is mediocre at best with the pay to win whales having an insane advantage (obviously) there is no tier or bracket system to put people into relative battle groups. Just be aware that this is a free to play perspective. I’ve pulled over 1k mystic scrolls, no LD nat 4 or above. Tons of decent monsters but never get duplicates. Have a core three star team that beat the game with 120k total BP. But beyond beating the game you will have to spend infinite hours of your life or your money to keep up with the pace of the game. It started out as fun but after leveling all three characters to level 50+ clef level 61 which is unrewarding in itself. The game has become boring.

The graphics unfortunately give me headaches. It feels like my perfect vision is blurry on any setting. I have not seen a game this bad on visuals…. Ever. I had a lot of friends already drop it just due to graphic issues. A big part of these games is playing with colleagues, so if you can’t provide an experience to keep groups of people interested the game will fail. The concept of the gameplay is good, RNG is ok considering there are a good amount of chances to get lucky for free or low dollar buys. The shop does have way too many options for packs that don’t seem to make sense to buy at all, but there are some that seem reasonable if you filter through it. I did expect more from the “brand name” to be honest.

Wow this game has so many issues the power scaling for dungeons is WAAAAYYYYY off the invincibility on attribute dungeons is insulting and a joke how long it lasts 6 to 7 is such a huge jump for such a lack of reward for the jump it's again insulting the disonnection issues are so bad during zone boss it's almost impossible to complete without dying the cost to repair durability on purple items and above is a very clear money grab I've played all 3 summoners war games since release on all 3 and this is by far the worst money grabber I'm sure it will improve and when it does I'll improve my score till then the only reason it's not a 1 star is it's a fun game when it runs right

by Moriaffi

The gameplay is actually good, however this game is not like the original game (Summoners war) in terms of rarity. They just hand out 5 stars in this game like they’re nothing and they’ve lost all their value because of it. Earn them in events or pay money for a battle pass to get pieces for one. Also light and dark monsters can be summoned from regular mystical scrolls which makes light and darks less meaningful too. Sure in summoners war it might be annoying to not get the monster you want or go forever without getting a nat 5 or ld spark, but when you actually do get one it makes it feel actually important and worth the time.

by C.Oberdorf

It’s a nice game. It’s new so that’s why it’s fun to play right now. Most things you just auto so not much interaction like a traditional mmorpg. Rates are horrible. Least for my account. I have over 200 mystics summoned and no nat5. My brother on the other hand has roughly the same amount summoned and has 7 nat5 summoned. Com2Us has preset account rates once the account is created. Just like in Summoners War Sky Arena. I. Chronicles they do bombard you with a ton of ads for pack purchases tho. I guess they need to make their money back after their NFT fail. But overall the game is fun to play outside of the horrible account rates I have been experiencing. As with all Summoners War games it’s all about the whales and how much you whale.

Honestly the game looks great and brings a lot of your favorite monsters from summoners war sky arena. It is fun in its own way but has some mechanic flaws that ruin it.

First a good number of monsters will do skill damage based on def or hp, which is great on paper but ends up lacking. This is due to basic attacks scaling on atk and skills having 20s+ cooldowns.

Another concept is atk spd is completely niche for only select few monsters. It has no influence on skill cooldowns and is only for basic attacks, which then leads to it being a waste.

Finally the rune method in game is pretty bad. You can only really farm up to 5 star runes while needing to craft 6 star. The runes also need a special material to upgrade which you burn through so quickly and takes quite a bit of time to gain more.

It also ends up being a constant material gathering game because there are so many different materials for everything.

The game has great potential but it needs to be simplified tremendously and some qol improvements. Then I would give it 4-5 stars. They also need to revamp the basic attacks of many monsters to reflect their kits.

It’s a vast improvement over the last game, but still too many old characters,yes game play is fun and exciting, but I wanted a ton of new norm ,reg , rares, not all the old starters, and brand characters, at least not to start with, questing and lvling is fun, rewards are there also I actually enjoy the pvp in game, tower is a vast improvement over the old er games, runes was better in the last game 5 to 6 runes is still a bit obsessive, gemming is great , world event friends needs a vast upgrade,world boss events should be more often say like every 6 hours or do a 2x weekly event. Summoner war is still one of the better games on the market, PLEASE STOP BEING LAZY ON CHARACTERS FOR FUTURE GAMES AND THIS ONE I WOULD LIKE TO ENJOY MY NORMS AND RARES A LITTLE MORE THIS GAME GIVES YOU THAT FREEDOM TO GO BAM POW ZOOIE AND BREAK THE INDUSTRY ONCE AGAIN AS THE BEST GAME MAKERS ON THE PLANET! Go go SUMMONER WAR!

by Bigshotrob44

Kinda ridicouls I’ve never pulled a nat dark or light 5* monster in any of the summoner wars games! And I’ve played both since launch not even joining it just doesn’t get me to excited after not obtaining enough monsters and so many pay to win people are already so strong in the arena or battlefield there is no fairness at all they just kill you almost one or two hits! Game is fun until it isn’t, we all know it’s a grind and go game but it should invest into giving its community more 5 star light or dark monstersbcuz I’ve heard this rant from many folks and that is what they stop playing bcuz just getting normal 5star monsters just isn’t as appeasing as maybe 1 light or dark monster maybe every 4 months or so to say the least. Anyways, I’ll keep playing and hoping for luck but not for long I think.

by FaeryMilkTea

But for some reason my sound for the game won’t play. Double checked in game sound settings and there’s no muted things or anything and my phone plays the sound of everything else fine so not sure what that’s all about.
Also as far as character customization: it’d be nice to be able to change your hair color when you use a new hairstyle. My basic hair selection was pink and I wish that after changing it to the balancer set hair it could be changed back to the pink color. Maybe consider adding dye for hair and maybe even outfits?

by Fantazle

Love the game and the auto quest and harvest features gives ya a chance to take your pet outside and let it do its thing without dying or getting kicked. Graphics are top notch for this style. You can play on your phone at work (at your own risk) and do the auto farming then jump on your pc when you get home.
Great work dev team on multi platform playing. The game is fun, the characters are great and it’s not pay to win but, throwing a few bucks once in a while to help the devs keep it going and you get awesome outfits and or transmogrification options and or getting 5 star summons quicker.
4 stars (because nothing is perfect you’re just going to have to play and find out! I think you’ll like it.

by TaraTrill

If you like Neverland, Monster Super League and Summoner’s war/ any kind of mmorpg summoning games this is pretty good. I’m not too big on the automatic everything games because I feel like I’m not doing anything really but you have the option to battle manually too so it’s okay. The voice acting is adorable and they’re quite generous so far, though it’s the beginning so it may decrease as I power up. I’ll update again later after playing more to see if it’s truly F2P or not. Leaving 4 stars for now until I see how the game’s probability system goes and various other features I haven’t had the chance to toy with long enough to give a full fleshed out review for now.

So let it be known that I am a returning player. When I first played this game, let's just say it needed a lot of work, and leave it at that. I'm glad to see plenty of improvement on the game itself. Combat is pretty smooth, graphics are very good, and the story so far is basic, but good. Just proves that you don't have to have some innovating story arc in order for your game to be entertaining. There are a couple things that I would like to see the developers change though.

Firstly, I would like the ability to alter the size of certain buttons on the screen. The button to lock onto your enemies for instance is far too small in my opinion. If you gave us the ability to choose where buttons were placed and how big they were, then I believe you would get many more positive reviews based on the versatility of your game.

Secondly, and perhaps there is a reason for this, but it annoys the heck out of me when every other second during combat I hear "not within range". Is there a way to turn that off? Because I haven't found it yet. And that was one of the major reasons why I quit the game the first time around. It's incredibly annoying to hear that every half a second while you're trying to focus on staying out of the red zones during a fight.

Other than these two issues, I have no problem with the game. It's good fun, and a decent time eater. Keep up the good work.

This game feels like a cross between epic seven and maple story type of game, either way, it makes me feel kind of nostalgic as I loved these kind of games when I was younger back in early 2000’s. Some people won’t like it much, as it is not really up to par with current standard of expectations, but I personally like it.

The game is very pay 2 win, but it is also free 2 play friendly, just don’t expect to be in the top ranks. You have to summon same or similar monsters to level them up and fully awaken them, so good luck if you happened to summon an LD5. (Light or Dark Natural 5* monster).

by Sexyho1337

Not the best game on mobile right now but enjoyable and different viewpoint of summoners war sky arena. Love the depth and effort put in. Wish the controls were a bit more responsive. Graphics could be better but they are fine. The animated scenes 10\10. Too bad the majority of people who play this game and leave reviews are ridiculous low lives. Good job Com2us enjoying the game and haven’t spent a penny. Plenty of nat5s too :)

by Inherguts

it’s previous generation “sky arena” was a mere pawn compared to this new open world versatile version of itself. It has so much more and such a better progression and fighting system that it would keep you entertained for a very long time, but don’t forget to take very brief and consistent breaks if you’re going to be sitting there destroying your health all day just to progress in a game get over yourself. Grind for a few then go get some sun, your life has purpose inside and outside of this game so get to it!

by WhoYaWitt

I have played just about every mobile RPG and gacha out there. Some for years and some for only a few days. This is still a new release so we will see how interesting it stays but first impressions are that this is a top notch game. Lot of fun, lot of missions and achievements, a lot of the items for sale as specifically rewards are good value, seems f2p friendly though I am not f2p. Good start Com2us but keep it going. Don't get cheap and too greedy. Keep letting us get 5* and keep the new missions and updates fresh and we will keep playing.

All of those other reviews complaining about paywalls have NO idea what they’re talking about. the only thing you need money to pay for in this game is monster aesthetics! everything else is obtainable without paying! you need a little patience, but i love that they even have a system in place to more easily get the 5 stars you want for upgrading your current ones! they have events come around all the time that just gives away a 5* AND you can get multiple copies of it!! Didn’t get enough copies? that’s fine! summoning blessing has your back! i stopped playing the old game because of how difficult it was to get the 5* characters, but there are literal permanent quests that you can do, and you can even get a Dark 5*! The quests are not difficult at all, all you have to do is upgrade a monster with materials that THEY GIVE TO YOU DURING THE QUEST!!

Do you sometimes have to be strategic with your resources? YES, that’s the whole point of the game!! But I love the game because all of the resources are at your fingertips, you just have to prioritize what you want to do first!!

Good luck and have fun summoners 🖤

I played the first mmorpg com2us released called world of magic and I was supper pleased. As you started the game you got to choose between 2 factions “Siras” and “Lanos” the 2 factions are at war with each other and it made the game very competitive. PVP was a focus on that game and player kill was enabled in most maps where the factions could fight each other. it really gave you reason to manually grind your way up.

With chronicles I feel they could have taken a little more inspiration from their own game… but I’m still super impressed! I had to get used to the whole “auto play” thing but now I love it.

I hope they bring more game modes like a 3v3 where you can only bring 1 summon. There is lots of pvp fun that could be had, I’m curious what they will implement. Keep summoning :)

Yes I have paid a good amount on the game but I’m coming to realize that a lot of the characters that are meta and used are handed to you and the pulls in the game are very generous. I’ve already pulled every element character 1-4 stars excluding some light and dark mons. And I’ve only been playing for not even a months span. Love this game and it’s contents. The balance of too little and too much in terms of grinding is perfect in this game. ONE thing I’m pretty disappointed in I would say is the audio. It’s sad to see voice acting only runs off a single line and they repeat that line forever no matter what they are actually saying. Would love to see what I’m reading be voice acted as well instead of hearing the same exact single line every time I talk to an NPC. SECOND the auto functionality could be a little smoother. I notice my character just standing around for minutes before doing actions and would love to see more options on the auto function. OVERALL an addicting fun game that I would recommend to almost anyone.

Love everything about it from having a summoner be a character to still be Able to summon monsters just like the old Summoner War yet mmo style that I like more. 1 thing could be changed if that if I beat the full story mode and make second and 3rd summoner character you should be able auto run the first dungeons instead of doing them manual for 2nd and 3rd character play through. I would recommend it to any players new or old players who remember Summoner War and Summoner War Sky Arena. Keep up the great work and I love all the free stuff you guys always give out and events for everyone to enjoy not just those who love spending money. Can’t wait for you guys to add the Dragons to the game so I can summon them.

by Joiyden

I recently got to the summoning alter and I must say, all of the monster remodels look amazing!!! I’m starting to get my old team all together and they look stunning and fresh! I only have 2 tiny nitpicks tho. I feel like the AI voice can be very repetitive and annoying early game, and I feel like the evolutions for the monsters don’t give off the same kind of godly feel to them without that glow they get. But these are just a few little nitpicks but other then that the game is beautiful and props to you guys making this game !

Coming from 5+ years of playing Sky Arena and as someone who despised Lost Centuria this game has been such a breath of fresh air.

The graphics are fantastic, the concept is great, there is a pity system unlike Sky Arena and monsters are easier to get. This game is also a lot more free to play friendly even though there are heavy paid packs you can buy, if you choose to, you get more for your money.

So far, I really don’t have anything significant to complain about.

Hello! I have been playing this game since it came out and it is one of the best games I have ever played, with an awesome storyline, diversity in types of teams, and so on, but I encountered a problem recently with my hive account that I wish to bring to the devs attention before I can happen to anyone else. All of my progress, since the game released, got erased from my hive account and put me to start over entirely. No problems with the game in any way, except with the account link problem I encountered. However, I would recommend this game to anyone and everyone who is interested in these types of games, for they will not be disappointed at all.
