This game totally misses the mark. I loved the original but they've messed this all up. It's an insult to the original. They made it all animed out; not too big a deal, but a let down. The biggest problem is the sky palace parts. They force you to play this like an old school war strategy game 😖. You cant advance in the game if your city isn't leveled up enough and you have enough towers and the right kind of towers etc. It's tedious, time consuming, and a boring chore. You wanna kill demons with your sword and powers... not spend hours building up a city. That was just an aside in the original; a fun little perk. Now it's, "do this or screw you player." What were they thinking!? Other than that, with the technology we have now this game could have been SO much more. Instead it feels cheap and uninspired in alotta ways. Not worth the $25 I paid; more worth $10 or so.
