Hearthstone in IOS

★★★★★

★★★★★ Amazing game with an unlimited amount of fun and strategy.

Over the years I’ve recognized a passion within myself for this game I love the strategy the challenges and the different stories that go along with it the developers have done a great job keeping the game different over the years so it never feels monotonous. You don’t have to pay anything to actually get ahead in this game within the ranking system for certain modes and you can still earn cards and decks and rewards without spending any money. The game offers a lot of different strategies techniques and there’s a huge online community always available to give you information to better your decks and strats. I have always love blizzard games and I’ve been a fan since the beginning keep on keeping on guys!! *****SIDE NOTE*****. anybody out there that gives the game less stars because of a bug or some type of network lag or application problem they experienced, lacks the understanding that technology requires tweaks, it’s something new, of course there will be an occasional issue, it happens on every platform and every game. Some people are able to recognize them and some cannot. My point here is that you lack patience for the develops that made the game. Give them a moment to see what is going on and to fix it. Blizzard has been an amazing company until the merger with Activision, however they still do a great job maintaining their games. This behavior alone, Blizzard has built their reputation off of.

★★★★★ 🐸

I have been playing hearthstone since the day of its release. I really enjoy playing card game passively in my free time, and this fits in to scratch that particular itch. I think this game is probably the most polished of any card game I’ve played wether mobile or not, blizzard does not skimp on quality here. With all of the updates and changes over the years with achievements and the addition of tavern brawl and the two other game modes, there isn’t a lack of content here. Most people will complain about the steep price hearthstone has, and yes it is true but honestly this game is truly free to play. Will it take you forever to get decent cards? Of course but with the free packs every week and special events that happen, If you play this game for fun and less for competition you’ll eventually get every card you’ll need. If you’re the type of person that looks at a free to play game and thinks, well if I don’t need to pay money I won’t then this game is perfect for you. It’ll take time for you develop a collection, but games are meant to be savored not consumed. If you are big into the competition seen, this game is expensive, but you are probably coming from another card game like magic the gathering or yugioh where you can easily spend that kind of money if not more to make a decent deck. Either way this is a fun game, give it a shot, the animations and voice acting are superb. This game is worth giving a shot.

★★★★★ If you like card based games you will LOVE Hearthstone!

I have played hearthstone for over 6 years. It is by far the best FREE card game I have played, and I have played many! Many people complain about not getting cards or card packs to flesh out their playing decks. However all of you complaining must expect to get stuff for free or given to you. Blizzard gives away a card pack at least once a week, all you need to do is win in arena or the weekly brawl that changes each week. 1 win in either you get a free card pack. Look let’s face this head on Blizzard is a very large company that does a great job patching and creating fun content. They give Hearthstone away free, and hope that their fan base continues to pump money in to their company so they can continue doing what they are good at. That is creating and updating their games. If they stop earning enough to support their business, well not only Hearthstone is going away but many very successful and popular MMORPG games that blizzard also maintains and creates fresh new content often for. So play Hearthstone for free if you want you can still have a lot of fun with it. The only money I have spent is on their Battlegrounds pass which I play every day, and also on their story line content packs where you get lots of packs, and hero cards etc. In summary my opinion is give it a chance, if you like card games you will like hearthstone. Have fun!

★★★★★ You need to play a lot to play free.

I’ve gotten to a point now where I play enough to get enough gold for lots of packs for each new expansion. But it only got to this point because I used to pay a lot, so I have enough bad cards to disenchant for the good new ones I don’t get that come out. However, I do believe you can reach high ranks including legend without paying a cent. All new users to hearthstone get a free meta deck. I believe these get updated with each expansion. These may include few or many legendaries and epics, *especially “highlander” or single card decks that include synergy cards by only having 1 copy of each card in your deck (but by the time next year comes these cards rotate out so highlander decks will be gone). When you start, pick a deck with lots of legendaries and epics, play that deck and play the game a lot to build up a bunch of gold by doing quests and do the “tavern brawl” every week for a free classic pack, also with each new expansion you get straight up free cards and a free legendary, along with free card packs with new expansion quests. Over time, you get into a rhythm of saving up gold for the next expansion, disenchanting crap cards and making 1 to 3 viable great decks for each expansion. You have to play a lot, your limited to a couple classes as well, but I find that it’s actually more fun to main a class or 2 anyway. Good luck.

★★★★★ Not as good after the new wears off!

I originally gave this game a 5 star fantastic review, but I now must take it back... This game is fun, but there are also a LOT of un-fun things about this game! The arena is the most disappointing part in my opinion. It is highly inconsistent and I have had so many drafts where my card pool was so terrible that even if I was a grandmaster level player I wouldn’t be able to get 3 wins. Then there is the overall cost to be a competitive player and have a small variety of decks. This isn’t like typical card games where your cards hold actual trade/sale value. So all you can do is pay for packs and hope to either get the cards you are hunting for or 4 other cards of that rarity to break down and create the card you want, IT’S A FLAWED SYSTEM! I know Blizzard is loving the cash flow though! If the game continued to hook you up with packs, the way it does when you are a new player, then it would make the game more fun! I loved playing and winning packs, it motivated me to spend money. All those free packs dry up fairly shortly after you start playing regularly. And the quests hardly pay a half pack a day, it makes the game dull! Who wants to continuously play with 1 or 2 decks every day? Not me, it gets boring, then you can’t even get value out of crafting 1 deck into another, it’s all bad. Blizzard seriously needs to improve the games dull factor.

★★★★★ Fun game, but...

The game overall is fun, I would give it 5 stars. However, the first time I downloaded it it wouldn’t let me make an account, which is needed to play with friends and save my progress. When I finished filling out the account creation form, it asked for a security input, which I assume is one of those ‘I’m not a robot’ pictures where you type in what it says. I was unable to do this security input because it wouldn’t load the picture so I couldn’t see what it was. If you’re under 18 there is no security input, so I set it to my actual birthday hoping to go through a parent email to get my account activated. When I tried to do this, however, a dark red rectangle with an x in the upper left corner appeared when I clicked ‘create account’. I assume this box is meant to tell you what’s wrong, but nothing was wrong and the box was blank. I had filled out all the fields correctly. After this, I decided the game was taking up too much space on my phone, so I deleted it planning to reinstall it once I freed up some space. After I had more space, 2.8 GB to be exact, I redownloaded the game. After I downloaded it, I had 1.3 GB left on my phone, which shouldn’t be an issue for anything. When I opened the game, it said ‘Failed to get update. Please check your network connection.’ My WiFi works perfectly fine for everything else, so this should not be an issue. The game fully downloaded all 1.5 GB so I don’t understand why it doesn’t work. Please fix this.

★★★★★ Something changed with battlegrounds

I used to play the main game function a lot but once battlegrounds came out I pretty much just play that. For the last couple months I have noticed an issue with it. Minions of playable factions in that round of battlegrounds are supposed to be plentiful if nobody is playing that faction, because there are a limited number of each minion per faction and if nobody buys from a faction then those minions stay in the pool to be used. Recently I have been playing and noticed that when I am the only one playing a faction, say elementals, there are almost no elementals to buy and use. Even though I am the only one buying them and using them, nobody else is playing that faction. If there is a set number and if they are supposed to be showing up more when nobody is buying them because they are sitting in the pool to be bought, then where are all the minions not being used in that faction???? Why are they not coming up to be bought and used??? How come 3-4 players can all play beasts and get super strong with all the same minions and yet when I am the only player playing elementals I get crapped on and can’t find any minions to use?? If this ever gets looked into and changed I’ll change my rating cause I love the game but it’s like every other battlegrounds round I play I will be the only one playing a faction and get crapped on even though I should be the strongest one around since nobody else is buying or looking for the minions that I am.
