Thread: New Upcoming Game: Crystal Maidens

Hmm, now that I've had some time with the game, I think my biggest gripe is it's extremely hard to pick up the one girl you actually want to pick up.

It would be a significant improvement if you could pickup a girl via her portrait at the bottom even when already deployed. (and yes, I send them that feedback)

Ah, guess I'll just stick to Armor Blitz. Similar enough gameplay except you can't drag and drop a girl already in combat (but that also means you don't have to worry about dragging out of the way of those ridiculous insta-kill AoE spells) and a lot larger roster and in-battle roster.

There are new challenge quests that have restrictions. You need lots of different class & element girls to complete them all.

Just curious, I assume the 10+1 premium with legendary guaranteed, there is no guarantee the legendary is actually a maiden?

(doubt anybody has tried it, but doesn't hurt to ask)

Is there really just a trickle of gems that makes any gacha other than the free one pretty much unobtainable?

Game is literally unplayable due to being unable to quickly complete battles you've already won 3 stars on. And considering how atrocious gear drop rates are, such an option is practically a must. The game got mindbogglingly boring quick because I have to manual fight each and every map I want to try and grind some crummy equipment on. No, thanks. I don't enjoy the art style enough to subject myself to such constant torture.

I really don't understand why they chose to force your units to run blindly forward at all times. It's anti-fun. It removes positioning and is just bad design. Cut the lane game shit for a simple Dungeon Siege style control scheme and you'd have yourself a game. Also the item system is... bad. Drops being map specific means sacrificing xp to do map 1-1 ten times to get that one damn necklace. Just... the f'k? No. No I'm not doing that. How is that even going to work if they add new units? Art's good but everything else feels kind of spartan and linear.

The game is kinda... bad. Leaving aside the time wasted daily for bonus i didn't get,i'm disappointed.
We waited so much for THAT thing? A crappy childish manual game?
Go home devs. I played similar game engines ages ago.

Honestly, I don't mind the gameplay all that much, I think the whole left to right thing adds a weird sort of strategy aspect you wouldn't otherwise get. Get one guy far enough forward so you can deploy others behind a wall sort of thing.

That said, yes. I don't really *want* deep gameplay from my web games, I have real non-web games for that. These are stuff I play while waiting for loads or spawns or whatnot in other real games.

(Note: I haven't made any attempt whatsoever to grind for gear, I just take what I get. So far the only "good" gear has come from the gacha, which I expect will continue to be true.)

And yeah, a way to quick play missions you've already done would be nice, though I can think of a reason why they may not have wanted to. It would make leveling underleveled maidens significantly easier.

game gets to 90% then just resets and load again to 90% over and over again some one know what might fix this

I didn't manage to figure out how you get skill points. Anybody care to explain?
