Rivengard Hack 1.31.4 + Redeem Codes

I am a veteran when it comes to hero collectors. I really love Rivengard. The art, characters and gameplay all stood out from the crowd. The special abilities really pop off the screen and feel impactful when used. I am not a frequent spender in games I do play. The market has been saturated by companies trying to bleed their fan base dry with awful deals *cough cough* marvel strike force.. I am pleased to say Rivengard has had good deals which is a nice change of pace in the genre. I am really looking forward to the future of this game. I hope the devs have a marketing strategy planned because Rivengard has all the makings of a successful game.

As I and a lot of other reviews here agree, the game is great on the outside. Graphics, characters, boards etc.. but once you start the grind of leveling these characters you start to feel like “ok is a grindy kind of game, but it’s fun so not bad.” Unfortunately, it is grindy and bad!

The grind in this game is almost impossible! I get the devs don’t want all the pay to play peeps to get everything and be bored but I don’t even see how they can do it!! Seriously here is a legit breakdown.. one character let’s say is an Uncommon. This character comes in at 1⭐️. To raise its star it takes some emblems, no biggie. Get it to 2⭐️ then three with the emblem amount increased each time. No issue just quick raid each level right... nope. Only 10 a day! But, let’s say you get to 4⭐️, now it’s time to “evolve” to rare. This takes a new set of emblems (rarer drop) and two other ingredients that can, you guessed it only be purchased or dropped from a different mode that you get three attempts a day, good luck!

This all wouldn’t be bad if it didn’t keep you from leveling up characters past a certain level (Uncommon capped at 17) which in turn makes clearing stages eventually halt! Sadly, this will happen and all you are stuck doing is daily achievements to get 10 tokens to hopefully draw some luck out of a 10 summon. It’s really off balance for any player tbh. Devs need to listen and fix some of these issues. The game is broken.

I’m a big fan of turn based strategy, so this game was very fun initially, but as I’ve played for over a year now I’ve watched the game get worse and worse. In the past three months I’ve dealt with bugs around the energy and ticketing system almost weekly, and their support team hasn’t done anything to fix the problem. It’s especially frustrating in the middle of their tournaments, as I’ve been knocked out of strong positions with no support received when I reached out.

Most recently they changed the game so internet is required to play. I was hoping this would fix the problems, as their support team said their issues were around syncing when I played offline, but I’m still having the same problems, as well as a whole host of new problems where the game won’t recognize my internet. Hoping this review will help others avoid getting invested in a game that doesn’t support its players or correct for the impact of its bugs.

Good graphics. Interesting Strategy with roleplaying. Fighting terrain is always different and keeps you on you toes. I do like the game.

Not able to play the game at all is not fun. I was hooked then energy drained then i finished all the side activities and still waiting for energy. The energy regeneration time needs to be decreased or energy needs to be bought or earned more too keep a player moving. Free to play player make pay to win players happy. No free to play = No pay to win. Matchmaking is embarrassingly terrible. Bosses are surprisingly difficult on difficult maps. Cant out strategize opponents when maps bottleneck. Heroes are fun but I can see heroes unbalancing fights very quickly due to tier levels. Going to need more characters to balance. Only 2 skills per character is low and worse that the skill can only be used once yet some characters use passive skills repeatedly. Unbalance and dead time are huge flaws in this. Thanks for all the good parts.

I love tactics games and gatcha games, and this is both. Similar to FF Tactics, but very different world and art style. The gameplay itself is fun, but my goodness, this is the stingiest game I’ve played on the App Store out of hundreds.

As many others have noted, the economy is completely warped. Buying anything with any of the currencies is absurdly expensive, the energy system/recharge are ridiculous, even cool downs are 12 hours for a 90 second run — everything is out of whack. This makes progress extremely slow, and there are multiple limitations/restrictions on powering-up characters, which slows things down even more.

Shard systems are fine for unlocking characters, but shards AND “laurels” AND multiple other “slow down the players to make them pay money” measures is inexcusable. I’ll still give it a shot since it’s new and the developers will hopefully make some changes, but if not, I will not be sticking with this one or spending any more money. Lots more enjoyable and generous games out there.

This game is really fun! Graphics are awesome, characters are enjoyable. The primary reason for my 3 stars is the insane in-game economy. As it currently stands, new players will get 2-3 free 10 pulls when they first start. Which may sound like a lot, but because it uses two separate shard systems AND includes gear, that’s not much at all. Once you’ve used your 2-3 10 pulls, it becomes a complete grind fest. 3000 gems for a single 10 pull is at least several weeks of work. On top of that, a single energy refresh is 200 gems!! The cooldown for other game modes like Onslaught and Raids is also extremely long. I’m giving the developers the benefit of the doubt because it’s a brand new game, but the economy has to change. If things become more affordable, players like me will be more likely to spend a few dollars here and there. If things don’t change though, I’m guessing many of us will leave.

UPDATE: I deleted it. I like the game a lot. But I just can’t afford to play it the way they want.

I don’t normally leave these but this game has a lot of potential and I hope the Devs listen to the community. The balance in the game is skewed toward pay to play and whales. We all know games aren’t free to develop and they need to make money to keep content coming. However, if you drive away the fan base of ftp and low spenders the game will die too.
The positives: very fun to play when you have energy or tickets for events. Graphics are great and the character system is interesting. Lots of potential for growth.
The negatives: Wait time for energy is excruciating. Gem costs, gold drop amount and character shard drop rates are abysmal. The two shard upgrade system makes leveling your heroes take a ridiculously long time as you grind away unless you 🐳. Plus there is a two gear system that also makes powering up expensive. 3000 gems for a 10 summons seems reasonable until you see that you only get a few gems a day. Heck you can’t even do a 10x summons for less than $25 if you don’t have the “bonus gems” and that 10x summons might not include anything other than gear and shards for heroes you aren’t close to getting.
Lots of potential for a winner. Lot of potential for it to die quickly if the devs don’t adjust some things.

This is really a fun game to play. Good blend of tactics and character collection/development. However, after a week or so of play, it will rapidly become apparent how much the developers want you to drop some real money, and how they will increasingly punish you if you don’t. You’ll find that the one resource you will always be lacking in is gold coins; virtually everything in the game depends on it. This game gives “miserly” a whole new meaning. Without spending cash, gold is ludicrously scarce. A whole day’s worth of gameplay might earn you enough to increase ONE stat on maybe ONE of your heroes. It’s very frustrating, and ironic, because that level of scrooge-ness just makes me more stubbornly NOT to want to give them money. Hopefully soon, they’ll realize their error and tweak things a bit....

This game had a lot of potential. The graphics are good, the characters are interesting, and the table top style game play is fun. But the game very quickly becomes a total grind. Any progress requires characters to advance, and that’s an incredibly slow and expensive slog. You either need to spend outrageously or still spend a lot and invest tons of time repetitively using raid tickets for a increasingly slim chance of obtaining what you need to advance. There’s also an onslaught mode that can help you advance, but that can be used very infrequently. Otherwise, you quickly hit a point where there’s just not all that much to do. All this is fixable, but it doesn’t seem like the developers are interested in growing the game or devoting much thought to it.

Wish I could play more. The cost to play is getting out of hand. This one will likely go to the bottom of the pile as I'll have to wait a day or two to play again.

Update

After playing for a couple of more days. The time it takes to get anything and the cost to play are fast making this potentially great game impossible to play. I pay for games and have been known to put money down when it's worthwhile. The cost/time structure is slightly ridiculous. Between laurels OR shards, and wasting a lot of time and effort to not get what you need, and then time it takes between attempts on top of sheer cost, I'm losing interest. After reading Reddit threads on this game it sounds like this is a common complaint. It's too bad you're losing long term players.
