Legend of Solgard Wiki

I love this game, I really do. The gameplay mechanics are fun, there’s a great creature variety that can be built up over time, lots of fun play modes, and a very engaged player community. This could be really big over multiple years if Snowprint/King manage it well. Why one star? They’re not managing it well, they’re doing the exact opposite. There has been a long-standing “test” that gives dramatically better gold rewards to some players and much worse rewards to others. This is creating a toxic haves and have-nots culture in the game. Great players who love the game but drew the wrong straw are quitting. It is straight up poor management of a player base and not okay. End the experiment and put everyone on a level playing field before you completely destroy the player base you’ve built! * Updated Jan 28: all the feedback seems to have worked and with the latest update they’ve put players all back onto the same equal footing, so upping the rating to 5 stars again

This game is absolutely amazing. From the look and feel, to the story, to the unique gameplay and twists, everything about this game is astounding. Each creature has their own abilities, and strategy really comes in to play, since creating certain combinations at certain times can have completely different results. My only complaint is the energy refill time. It takes 10 minutes to get 1 measly energy, and the energy required for battles is around 6. That’s 1 hour for just one battle. And it probably increases as you progress through the levels. It’s just not realistic to make the wait time for just one energy 10 minutes, in a game where you need a decent amount of energy to do a battle. At least the max capacity is decent, but PLEASE consider decreasing the energy refill time, even if it’s only by a little. Overall, amazing game, can’t wait for more levels!

The game is overall pretty enjoyable. The gameplay is easy to grasp, and it has some pretty neat creature designs. However, I do have two things I don’t like. I find it annoying that, for returning players, they have to go through the entire tutorial process before they can bind, or return to, their existing account. I would definitely like to see a change in that because the process is just too grueling. I would recommend having the option to return to an account prior to jumping into the tutorial. I also feel like the home/main page is too convoluted, as well. Most times I don’t know what I need to do, cause it seems as if everything is thrown at you. It just doesn’t seem that organized. Other than that, the game is one of the more, well-developed, matching games out there.

I enjoyed playing so far but would enjoy more opportunities to gain more gold and prizes. Would love to be able to replay levels, maybe gain more points if we beat our scores. For now I feel locked in and forced to advance through the game although I really don’t understand how the game works. I get it, I make combos. What I really don’t see is the enemy moves. Sometimes they attack, sometimes they don’t. Sometimes I get hit, sometimes I don’t. Don’t really understand how any move I make can really combat the enemy or influence any moves they make. Kinda feel like I’m playing a slot machine where it doesn’t really matter, just watching what the results will be. I want to know o beat the round, that my intelligence beat the level. Wish I had more rows and columns of my characters and have more characters on the field. Feels too small. Feels too cramped. Feels like not much of a challenge and worse, at the end of a level, the prizes are so minimal. The prizes should be dependent of how well one plays a level. If we make excellent combos and win in the fewest amount of moves, then we should receive much more coins and stones... much much more. I really want to like this game. Wish I could pick the avatar. Wish I could decide the name, the gender, the look... would be awesome to get an LGBT option. As I win levels, would love to win customization options for my avatar. Really, really want to like this game. Hope there are improvements to come. Version 2.0?

A lot of changes with the new update, some better, some that I’m more skeptical about. I appreciate the conversion shop giving access to trying creatures I’d never played with or upgraded before. That’s been very cool. Though tbh, a lot of the new creatures seem like tweaked reskins of old creatures. It’s great that legendaries are more readily available to those of us that were missing out before. However, the upgrade costs are much higher and the power levels required in game are also much higher, so it looks like it’ll be quite the grind once the conversion shop dries up. The only truly unfortunate change is that gameplay itself is much more gated by creature tiers now - commons and rares are basically useless outside of their low reward events. I do miss all creatures being somewhat viable, people played all sorts of teams. Maybe there’s some way to balance them out during versus and clan type modes?

This match-3 is amazing! There is strategy involved in this game, but the learning curve is easy enough. I haven’t dropped any real money on it yet after a couple weeks of playing. The game is less of a grind, and more of strategy involved to pass levels. In order to progress, I recommend playing all of the Game Modes, as you earn coin for leveling, and tokens for the heroes every game. Very good job. (Update 11/18) I finally uninstalled the game. This one was so good as I mentioned before, but unfortunately it was a pay to win/super grindy game come the 2nd map. The difficulty will scale up drastically to the point where you will spend a lot of time trying to build up characters. And with the major lack of Gold rewards (why it’s a 4-star rating), this becomes twice as hard. Therefore, after months playing since it release, I have Become disappointed with the games lack of progression options, and steep difficulty shift.

So I already got recommended to not play the game but I want to see what it was like soooo I kind a have to download this game. And boy oh boy was it not worth my time it really takes you 1 million moons to be able to rank up a character nowadays well if you have the money anyway. I tried this game every day and night for nothing not only because the players at first give you no status. But I almost had a heart attack because I thought that I was not going to defeat the first boss on the first chapter. Looking back at this game now I’m surprised I even downloaded it literally I spent most of my time just trying to get through the first boss. But we aren’t even done the hand movements that they want you to do to get a pacific thing are kind of annoying I wish that we could get more moves because you literally are not getting nothing and you have to continue summoning more monsters until you hit two moves to just get that one character. And when I mean first boss I’m in the very very first boss and you know what that means I only been playing this game for about a couple of minutes and I can already tell that it bad.

This is an awesome concept! However it gets difficult quickly requiring you to upgrade your guys. In order to get gold you have to play your campaign (best way to get gold) still not a deal breaker again. Then you upgrade your troops with character gems and gold. This is where you have problems. After you get the gold from the campaign levels you can’t go back and get more gold from them. This means you rely on the gold you gain from the campaign. Once the campaign gets to rough and your about to throw your phone you realize you need to buy a character to really move on. I know you can get gold from fighting in arena but it’s not much. And again you need to upgrade your characters to keep winning arena battles. These also get harder quick. They also have guild boss battles that your team has to destroy..... yeah you get a few guild coins but it helps a little Not much. The Fix? Make it that you can go back and get gold from previously beaten levels. Maybe not as much as the first time. I’m going to keep playing for a few weeks if nothing changes then I’m gone.

It really is a good game, but the developers are all over the place, everyday there are weird new changes and this has been going on since day one. For example, Ive reached a level now where everything is way too difficult even though i have the best epic and legendary lineups, i cant get past most of the daily challenges like treasure hunt and bounties, which makes no sense since you need them to progress... another example is that even if u want to spend money on anything it is ridiculously expensive and even buying the most expensive packages wont really do much for ur roster. This is coming from a person thats played the game from the get go... i live it im sorry to say the developers have no idea how to make it profitable without ruining game experience... and im guessing thats why this is the second or third studio to sell the game... sad really. Oh and a good idea would be to actually ask the users or at least give them the option to give their opinion, no such feature...

This is a very fun game that really draws you in at the start. At first it seems like there is good progression. And it is true that there are enough game modes that you can “grind” and level up your character. But alas it will happen - the inevitable paywall. Unfortunately it comes in a pretty frustrating way as things seem to go good until your turns no longer can come up with matches in any way shape or form as the computer. Yes I get it’s a game of chance but something gets really fishy when you can have the exact same characters as the computer (on arena mode for example) and somehow every turn they get matches on ALL their moves and you PERHAPS get one. It happens very consistently almost to the point that you have no choice but to spend to level up your characters or to unlock new ones to stand a chance. Even if the computer got matches half the time it would be more balanced but they seriously get the best random placement 90% of the time. There’s no way I should get obliterated over and over using the same characters at the same level as the computer. And the campaign eventually uses so much energy even if you win you can only play around 5 matches or so before having to wait for the extremely slow energy refill system. So again to play you’ll have to pay. I really really liked this game and the numerous game mode options made me feel like I could patiently grind day by day but the playing field has officially become way to unbalanced.

If you are thorough, you can play this game every day and get amazing rewards over time. Join a guild and get more rewards . Between normal map missions that require the usual energy that recharges over time, and the “Titan” battles where you collectively chip away at a large enemy, there are many other things to do. It will infuriate you as any “random” game will but it’s worth playing, and after you get to a high enough level, you’ll have much to do and rewards to make your characters stronger. Great concept (that was my review BEFORE the new update) Update: 1 Star. This is officially the last time I will have have this game crash during a boss battle when I have dealt over 2000 damage only to log back in to discover no damage at all was recorded and my flags(attempt) was used up. This is unacceptable. This has been going on for almost 2 years now. It is affecting my guilds ranking and it’s just lazy. People have been complaining about this on the forums and in these reviews and you clearly have not given it the attention it deserves. Bottom line: you have FAILED to make your game more stable and fix the glitches and crashes that have been an ONGOING issue and instead chose to revamp the system and turn the currency upside down, making several key crafting items unavailable without paying money. Disgraceful. I will be uninstalling this game and recommending EVERYONE I know to stay away from it.

I will start by saying that the game I’m it’s basic design is fun and has a nice story. I will also start by saying, to be clear, this review is NOT an issue between those who pay and those who don’t. Unfortunately, I would recommend everyone to stay away and not download the game. King has engaged in what could be determined as borderline illegal business practice by making the game completely unfair between people doing the exact same thing at equal levels: some are getting massive amounts of gold while others in equal circumstances are getting pittance, and it’s not just a random chance chest thing - there are two tiers of gold payout for the player base, basically those in a poverty tier and those in a wealthy tier, and those tiers are (apparently) randomly assigned. Meanwhile they’ve hiked up all the gold prices in the game so those who are not in the wealthy tier are unable to acquire goods to advance at a pace even remotely close to those who are. I really did like the game, but I refuse to play a game where it is completely unfair between equal circumstance players. To be clear, this is NOT an issue between those who pay and those who don’t. Shame on you, King, for this kind of treatment to your players, especially when you had a really good game design! 😠

I loved this game the first two days. I invested a decent amount of cash because it seemed I would get a lot of play time out of it. Everything was progressing at a hood pace and I felt my time and money investment were worthwhile. On day three everything changed dramatically. First, you only have enough energy to attempt 4 campaign levels at a time. Second, the events become exponentially more difficult requiring you to either spend (more) real money or fail at the same junk for days on end. Third, and the worst, the wording they use in purchases are intentionally deceiving. A “good” chance at a legendary is around 7% and a “great” chance at a legendary character is a whopping 16%. These stats can only be found by tapping a very small ? Icon in the corner. Those are not “good” or “great” odds considering they cost the equivalent of $20-$40. In addition, the most recent event is worded “trade pumpkins for foulsprite gems” leading you to believe it is guaranteed. After spending real money on pumpkins I did not receive any gems and found out there is only a 50% chance to get them. The wording should say “trade pumpkins for a CHANCE of foulsprite gems”. In sum, do not waste your time or money. The developer is deceitful and not worthy of your hard earned cash.

I loved this game. I advanced quite always and played daily. Which makes me walking away and deleting this game all the more painful. It’s like breaking up with that person who you've been with a long time when they do something so bad that it’s just over. This October/Halloween release did that. You are supposed to make it through bounty games to get pumpkins for a new character. The new characters are devastating. They are extremely hard to beat. And harder to impossible to get. In fact, they pretty much changed the rules on what it takes to get that character and it’s harder. Which brings me to the point - they are making characters that you will never be able to beat if you did not start early and spend big money to be at the top of the pack. It’s just not worth it. Go to the forums and you’ll see the same comments from others. And thanks to those that posted there. It’s the first time I looked there and sure enough, I’m not alone on this. I’m done with King for good. I’ll stick with my Civ-like games where I pay a chunk up front for a quality game and know my investment upfront.
