Love the characters
Mon Apr 29 2024 Anime_DerpyI absolutely ADORE the dynamics in this game. That’s one of the pros. You can get a favorite character, duo, trio, and or group the more you play, and the voice acting helps to maintain your attention. The VA’s did amazingly!! Proud of them and their hard-work! The idle aspect is also useful. Life gets too busy for its own good, so seeing small, but effective, material grinds make coming back all the more worth it.
Of course, there’s the debate with the AI backgrounds. Honestly, as long as the characters themselves weren’t used by AI, that’s tolerable. I suggest one day going back and maybe drawing the backgrounds out - if that’s remotely possible. Another thing is the financial gain. It’s pretty hard to grind the game around chapter 3, for me personally! It’s smooth sailing once you’ve completed the required Galaxy Express needed to continue - but when you’re stuck: you’re just stuck. That’s why theres a small gratefulness for the idle concept. It still HELPS despite that blockage.
Overall, a fun, investing story! I love the story and the complexities of the houses, the art (during the story) along with the Warding/Character cards. Amazing VA’s, and overall a silly, cat-filled experience.
Annoying fake ads, fun game, bad drop rates.
Fri Dec 06 2024 Boogers McGee HamfredAs much as I enjoy playing this game every day, I find myself disappointed with the amount of ads I get of this game with fake gameplay. The story is interesting, I do find that you’re pretty much forced to play every day to progress since at a certain point it becomes painstakingly slow to beat levels and grow your characters unless you are whaling money into the game (or consistently logging in to do all the daily check in activities across the span of multiple days to gain a singular level) . Even when you do put money into the game for pulls you still face really rough drop rates with little reward. There isn’t a clear distinction on how far off you are from beating levels either. Granted gameplay in that aspect is nonexistent. Aside from the music levels which are fun, albeit few and far between. Those levels offer no reason to replay after receiving the initial rewards. Unless you just want to replay it for the sake of replaying it. I still find myself engaged because I’m curious to see the characters stories. I think this game has potential, but currently it’s standing in its own way by falsely advertising interesting gameplay only to result in minimal actual gameplay that is completely different than the ads. I recommend if you like idle games and gatcha pulls. At this point I keep seeing cool ads then get disappointed when I see this games title attached to it. EDIT: even the photos on the store are of fake game play.
This game is great but falls short
Mon Jun 10 2024 SFH1Tokyo Debunker has a really good storyline. It has very interesting characters and the first two episodes are very well written. The third and fourth however fall short. They feel rushed and take away the players agency and importance. As the main character you really don’t have much to do and don’t do your job very well. The MC takes verbal beatings without the option to deny, refute, or stand up for herself. I think this game is very fun and is a great example of an idle game. A similar game would be Disneys: twisted wonderland. I think that the marketing is a problem for many but many similar games have bad marketing (such as obey me). I think a huge problem however is the gatcha system. It is nearly impossible to get character cards higher than an R rating. I am on episode 5 and have 1 Sr and SSR card for respectively (the SR was the free card from the beginning of the game).You can only set those cards as home screens as well and have to pay diamonds for pfps in game. I’m f2p btw. I have done multiple ten pulls which claim to always give and SR or higher card however this includes warding cards when it really shouldn’t. They do not have the same value and should be treated as such. It makes the game incredibly difficult when you can’t get proper character cards because of the warding cards.
It’s alright
Wed Jan 01 2025 E1 max S7 only DoctorThe story and characters are great but it’s pretty bad gameplay wise, as the battles are auto run with RNG sometimes determining who wins. Mainly caused by attacks and some effects being uncontrollable so you can’t choose who your guys attack. I wish there was a way to see each monsters abilities/weaknesses as there isn’t a big reason to pick physical vs special attacks and other ways to figure out how to beat a case. The lack of strategy also means that I skip the battles and everything feels very monotonous . The cat rhythm game is fun but easier to beat with the audio off sometimes (still enjoyable most of the time tho) and the idle campus thing is fun I guess? Guild cats are cute but the nightmare raid, guild/fishing points, and arena shop rewards don’t feel very rewarding at “endgame” so it’d be nice if they offered better rewards even if they are 10x more than everything else. It would be good if they had more information to make gameplay and lore easier to understand. Maybe integrate it as the main character taking lessons with the other students about the world.
Itd be nice if pity could be shared between banners like in other games.
Most of the time it’s just grind dailies until next story release but at least it doesn’t take too much time
Awesome Story
Thu Apr 25 2024 MixnmediumPros:
I love the balance between fun and dark in the story of the game. As someone who works, it's also nice that the gameplay is pretty automatic. I also love that it is cumulative. Every card matters instead of just a select top five like most other games. This makes leveling cards more relevant. There is also a good selection of morally good vs bad characters in the game which makes it more intriguing compared to games where everything is centered around your player. The story would still be good without the mc. Still, there is a good amount of player input into dialogue or quizzes. The story is the best part of the game! The BGM is also great, I love the remixed classical music. So much of this game is awesome, I could complement so much more than what I have.
Suggestions:
Please have an art gallery for the story art. It would also be good to have character bios with their full design somewhere in the gallery. I personally like to make fanart so more references would be more user friendly for fans like me! It would also be nice to be able to customize the profile picture of our player to the one houses or dress our avatar up.
AI generated images, expensive to play, low SSR rates
Thu Jan 16 2025 White F4ng!I started at launch and finally deleted the game today. Reached 24 mil power with around 10 SSR characters so no, I’m not hating on the game just to spite the game developers. The game itself is not a new concept: there’s a voiced story mode with 2D characters and AI generated backgrounds, a campus mode that is gated by case progress, an arena (and coliseum mode) which is competitive pvp, a guild wars mode, and the main appeal of collecting the ghouls from the different houses. The SSR rates are horrifically low and pity of 500 does not carry over to future banners. You do get guaranteed SSR banners … if you want to pay $42 for a pack. Want to change your profile picture to the SSR you finally pulled? Sure, that will cost you 3.5k gems - almost enough for 20 more wishes. Art is nice, but some of the warding cards are AI generated images. It takes so long to build team power. Game descriptions of orbs were glitchy for a long time. There isn’t much new content (besides story updates) and the game is quite stale in end game. The story starts promising, but becomes pretty boring as it continues. Some of the characters are decently likable, some are particularly irritating. All in all, I would not recommend this game unless you either don’t care about game progression or have a few hundred dollars to blow. Good luck.
A+ storytelling!!
Sun Aug 10 2025 mygdreamingthe story on this game is absolutely incredible. the characters are far more 4-dimensional than you would expect - it is so much fun to see how so many large and interesting personalities interact with each other, and so impressive how convincingly it’s done!! the writers really have a strong grasp on convincing character development and weaving lore into the story without completely slamming you with exposition. the mysteries in each chapter are also incredibly well done - even a storyline that seems contrived on the outside is flipped on its head and made original and fresh in this game. I really cannot emphasize enough how much I love it!!
the gameplay itself can be tedious, and it requires a lot of work to be able to unlock each chapter of the story, but figuring out all the nuances to building your power is super fun. expect it to get harder the higher up you go, but you can always get a fresh start on the new servers that open up with each new chapter. I really love this game and hope more people can discover it!
Issues with bugs
Tue Jul 02 2024 JjjjjjjjjjjjhjhjhjjsmkwI have had so much fun with this game. I love the mechanics and the story alongside all of the characters, and was honestly addicted to it. However, when I made a new account on a different server in the game, a glitch occurred that locked me in the tutorial and doesn’t let me click out. Because of this I could not access the game at all. I’ve tried everything, including deleting the app and it’s data and reinstalling, but am still brought to the same screen.
I was disappointed when this happened because I had spent money on the game but couldn’t access any of the things I had purchased. I reached out to support multiple times, as well as on social media but it’s been about two weeks and I haven’t gotten a response.
Although I heard lots of good things about the game before trying it, I did hear that their customer support was extremely lacking and that they weren’t always addressing issues. I’m hoping that eventually this issue can be fixed so I can play again, but at this point I’m sure I’ve gotten kicked out of my guild and have missed a lot of the card drops I was excited for. Overall, great game but I would really appreciate better customer support for bugs and glitches
GENIUS
Wed Jun 12 2024 TiffanyyyycI clicked on the ad to download this game because it was advertised as beautifully drawn characters and cats, and in fact, upon opening the game, I was greeted with even more! Beautifully drawn characters, cats, an interesting plot line, gorgeous art, amazing voice actors, lore, world building, fun mini games and more!!!!!! What more could a girl want? This app is so worth your time if you’re looking for something fun, easy to play, entertaining, and just beautiful to look at. The aesthetics are wonderful and the music choice is great too!!
I wasn’t expecting the aspect of an idle rpg battle, tycoon clicker type game, gatcha rolling aspect along with a wonderful chose-your-path story line. I’m thoroughly enjoying every aspect of this game and how they all seamlessly blend together to keep you on your toes for more.
Really truly enjoying my time playing this game :) I appreciate that there are no options forcing you to pay “real” money. It makes the game more enjoyable while the option is still present! thank you for creating this!!!!
Amazing, But…
Wed Aug 28 2024 shefyksAs much as I consider this a 5 star game, I think it can be improved on the gacha aspect of the game. As another review said, it’s hard to pull cards when warding AND character cards are in the pool. In the past 20 pulls that I did (over a 2 week period since I grind for diamonds) I’ve gotten TWO character SRs, and the rest were warding cards that I don’t even get to use because I don’t even have enough character cards to assign them to - not even enough R cards. Also, I get that we have to work together as a guild to fish, but I think we should either: A. have the option to fish more than once a day (maybe once every 12 hours) or B. get a higher chance of catching more rare fish… I catch the same exact fish every day/week so my guild N E V E R gets new cats. Another thing: can we PLEASE get some power levels or something for the cases we attempt? I don’t understand how an enemy that is 30 levels below me knocks me out everytime I try. It’s really frustrating but I love the story and characters so much so that’s why I keep the game.
