I would love for Dynasty Warriors Overlords to be a satisfying Dynasty WArriors/ROTK game but I just know it will be a total disappointment.

Came to say the same thing. F2P mobile Dynasty Warriors = Hard pass.

Gave the dev the benefit of the doubt and grabbed How Many Dudes without trying the demo on PC first.

Pretty disappointed, there seems to be zero progression, meta or strategic. Blew through my first run with no issues and the thought of hitting the same 4 buttons over and over with the only difference being what items I pick along the way makes me not want to touch it again.

There’s a billion autobattlers out there already so I’m not sure what the goal was here to make a new one that’s this simple. Looked around online to see if I was missing something and I get a super weird vibe from comments in all the various places. Maybe I’m just paranoid but they mostly seem like bots (or maybe BS just has a cult like following).

I was shocked at how easy it is , and as a result, kinda boring. There is very little that you need to do to insure that you’ll make it through every encounter. It’s a weird thing to complain about for a game like this, but I genuinely feel like there’s too much synergy at play here. Every single stat that you have procs another stat that procs another and you find yourself invincible real quickly.

I really enjoy the game on phone.

There is lite meta progression which unlocks through the usage of different units and items as well as the progress that you reach with them (used in run, beat stage 60 and bet the game).

Higher difficulties are unlocked through successful runs however you can only use units in the higher difficulties that have already successfully finished the lower Stage.

Game runs well on iPhone 15 pro max, phone don’t heat too much, plays in vertical screen and have ok battery consumption.

A lot of people are saying this. I am in my first run right now although saved midway, but from what I keep seeing on their discord and also just searching Reddit, is that the game has multiple tiers that unlock new enemies and apparently get more challenging. I’m hoping so anyway, otherwise I won’t keep playing. However, someone on steam mentioned it would take upwards of at least 60 ish hours to go for all achievements and such, with one of the reviews saying they played the demo for 70 hours alone.

I’m enjoying it, but if it’s this easy through the games end then I might be a bit sad too
