Dark Summoner Reviews

by Simonsez40

It’s absurd that a game this old is as buggy as this. Several times a day, hitting a button or a banner will bring up a Twitter “sorry, page not found” screen. How does that even happy? Is this game running on Twitter?? That’s crazy.
The latest annoyance is that every 5-10 minutes the server will lose track of you and the game will be stuck on a loading screen. Either wait 5 minutes til the server finds you again, go back to the home screen if the button is active, or force close and restart if it’s grayed out.
Even without these issues, the devs make minimal effort to keep the game up to date. They’re great at constantly churning out overpowered new skills to induce the spenders to spend, but lazy at everything else. Events are still stocked with rewards that were helpful 5 years ago, but are beyond useless now. Monster classes that are now useless (AAAs) still can’t be gifted because that’s how it was 4 years ago. S monsters still can’t be traded in at the jewel store because they’ve never bothered to update that in the 3 years since G and G+ monsters were introduced.
The game has degenerated into a cash grab in which no effort is made to update this sort of basic functionality. It’s all about making sure the 100 or so people at the top of the food chain have to constantly keep spending to keep up with each other. The other 2,000 people still playing don’t matter.

I cannot log into an existing account from 2016. I made the mistake of making a new account and I cannot simply log out of it no matter the method I have tried. I am unsure of where to go in-game in order to solve this issue. I don’t have any old receipts because I never purchased any in-game currency; I earned it through alternate methods that was offered before the new updates. I don’t want to reset the player account because that would just prove a point of “wasted time” through the new account and the old account. This game is dead. The past 2 years, is dead. All of that time spent: gone. Time to move on.

I was among the first to play this game, and I was addicted to it for a couple years. It Was THE best game. The old auction house was nice, I definitely enjoyed the newer auction house more (which most wont agree with me) and this game use to not be a “only way to win is to pay”. You used to be able to actually grind this game out and trade your way up, of course paying made your travel faster and easier to obtain, but now it’s a “pay, or you get nothing worth your time and dedication” but it was amazing. Recently came back to the game to find that there is no trading/ auction house that is worth it. Really saddened me. So I’m sorry if I ruffled anyone’s feathers.. but I don’t think I will be returning. Get in the game and look up “kinkyJOKER”, that’s my account, and I was able to enjoy this game without spending a cent. Everything I have didn’t cost me anything and can still beat people on the battle list today. All free. This used to be the best game.. thanks, and I hope everyone had a great day.

Everything in this game is about money. For instance, there are always mountains of “special” packs, summons, points, and assorted other items for sale for absurd amounts of cash. Literally all of the events that are supposed to be entertaining have various ways to advance with cash. On top of this, the game is mediocre at best, and, often buggy af. Save your time and money and avoid anything made by Ateam developers because unless you are willing to shell out cash continuously, it is made ridiculously hard to get anything good in their games.

I had 2 accounts and spent money on both. My son made one account for me when he purchased a new phone for me and wanted to surprise me. I recently lost that account when I got a new phone email after email and no success. After spending a lot of money as well. I’m sure they can link it right to my Twitter and my bank account but instead give the run around. Very sad. Now I know why the game has been dying. If they treat there paying customers like this. Very sad. I’m a hard guy to shop for so my family buy iTunes cards for Christmas and I usually use them on this game. Guess that won’t happen this year. My bank account will get a break now.

It's a fun game what little I get to play. It is an extremely complicated game with a whole lot to do. Trying to accomplish what is needed is the problem. I am constantly running out of battle points, or ally points, or crystals, or gold, or attack points, or mission points, or summons, or relics, or whatever you need to accomplish anything. 4 battles?? Out of battle points, can't do that anymore. Lend aid to fellow guild mates? 6 maybe 7 attacks, out of attack points, can't help anymore. If you want to spend your own money, you can build up quicker... maybe, but the experience you get for doing anything is minimal and you need a lot to gain levels. I work to hard for my money to spend it here though. What little I can do in the game is fun though for now.

This used to be the best and most exciting I have ever played on my phone but everything is about making money . I have spent my share of money to improve but now if u want anything u have to buy it. Getting AAA+ monsters was the coolest thing especially in a summons which was rare but now u are just given stuff which in the long run doesn’t mean anything those monsters the G Really are junk monsters they give those away to keep one coming back . I miss the authenticity of the game.

I had this game 7 years ago, on a different device, and it still performs the same as back then. Slow and buggy. 7 years later and it’s the same laggy game, different phone.
Lot of bugs but other than that, I play it for the nostalgia.
It’s a game where you don’t have to put much attention in to and it has a lot of cool art in it

This game was amazing when I first started playing it six or so years ago, I remember it the other day and decided to download it and see what was new. It’s still the same tried and true game that I fell in love with all those years ago BUT it doesn’t fit on my phone screen (iphone12) when I launch the game the playable screen area is roughly 1/3 of my screen and it’s difficult to play that way. I’m hoping this gets fixed eventually but until then I can’t play.

This game used to be awesome, but now it seems like they’ve gotten lazy and they don’t do anything to make it more fun. They’re happy to just take our money and not add any new real cool events. The missions are absolutely childish and if they wanted to make it more fun they would have it set up where clans could merge or make alliances to take over other valleys or kingdoms besides just battles. I’ve been playing since the first week it opened and I retired three times because it got boring again. Crossing my fingers they actually do something to make it fun again.

As my title says the game overall is decent but the UI is clunky and needs a major update. It hasn’t changed since they released this game many years ago. I have been unable to collect rewards from several events due to the collect screen not appearing. I’m using an iPhone XS Max and I’ve also tried on my iPad. Please fix!!

by LawlessSandslash

Wonderful game but lately I’ve been having issues with the ads for the ritual summon. Occasionally the ad won’t close or enlarge to the point I can’t close it. And for some reason when I try to go to my gift box it takes me to a twitter page. If I could get feedback as to why I’d much appreciate. I don’t wanna uninstall but at this point it seems... buggy to say the least

by Tomy-San

Your in the right step but you must fix certain issues , the lag In guild battles ,distribution of s monsters and now god + monsters , I don't want to keep paying money to have fun in this game and when I do it still doesn't give me what I want ,, ohhh one last thing I have like 5 profiles with you guys can you sum them up for me that was money lost

Honestly the game is pretty fun. I love the old school and retro look. The controls are hard for me so just mess around with it to get use to it.

It could use some tweaks here and there. As a new Player I don’t understand the hate on the old reviews.

I see a lot of potential for this type of game. “Dark Fantasy” truly is fitting. I’m not sure what else to expect from this in the future.

I need help on a few things I don’t understand so I might not play this long-term. The communication is hard, or is there communication asides from comments in Clans? I’m a newb after all..

The recent update has the Key Exchange deleting all my rewards except for 2 Xeno Monsters. I’ve lost out on over 100,000 gold and 200 free SP. I’ve played this game since launch and is you can tell the devs barely care. It’s a fun game but fix the bugs, give us the missing rewards, and fix the key exchange glitch.

by Geeking User

Its not clear on how to get golden cups for the current raffle, the 10th Autmnal Advent Summoner raffle? Like its says you need them but theres no info on how to get them? And it does seem like the game is starting to become a pay to win since theres no truly easier way to get soul points

I’ve been playing since 2012 and I still find the game to be very fun and addictive! I feel like you guys should revert to the older battle sound effects because they sounded a lot better. The skill Sound effects now just don’t sound as satisfying now.

i've been playing this game since 2011, stopped for a while then came BACK for it. i just couldn't stop playing! it's entertaining, has a cool story unlike most similiar games, cool graphics, beautiful monsters when their OWN lore. seriously give this a shot

by Omegasoul95

I used to play this 3 years ago, and it was great. I went to start, I got to the point in the tutorial were you summon for the first time and then got stuck on the loading screen and won’t continue. I really want to play this again.

by Kazzyboy17

Seriously you have to give this game a shot. They don't disappoint. Graphics are cool, monsters are awesome. Anytime there is a tech problem they take care of it and almost always give you free stuff to make up for inconvenience. Give it a try what's the worst thing that could happen, delete another app? Get in on the ground floor because this one is going to become a classic tomorrow!!!
