Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I play the game without an internet connection? No. You must always be online to play the game.

'''2. Is this game pay to win? Can I go far without paying?''' People who pay more do have an advantage over those who don't. But plenty of Lapis (the in-game currency) and summon tickets are given regularly to all players to summon more units.

Luck plays a part in getting you rarer, stronger, units. While they do make the game easier, you can win most battles without them. Understanding the gameplay mechanics, battle, and party dynamics is more important than simply paying for units.

'''3. How "grindy" is this game? Can I play this game casually?''' The game is as time consuming as you are willing to be. It has content scaled from casual to hardcore for players. Large portions of the game's content can be played and enjoyed with low to medium amounts of time. But there is some grinding content that allows you to apply the same level of time investment generally found in online RPGs.

4. How often is the game updated? The game is updated once per week.

5. How can I save my progress? Your progress is saved server-side. However, your account is saved locally unless you link it to Facebook. Once linked, the Facebook account is permanently attached to the game, and you won't be able to unlink it in the future.

14. Will I lose my Lapis if I move my account to a different store (Google/Apple/Amazon)? You will not lose your Lapis, but you will lose your access to it. Lapis is tied to the store, Google Play, Apple App Store, and Amazon App. When you come back to your original store, your Lapis will still be there.

The key is used up upon unlock. See the list of all locked chests here.

17. Do buffs and debuffs stack? Active buffs/debuffs with the same effect don't stack, but passive buffs do. See the Mechanics page for more detail.

'''18. How do I progress through the story? I'm stuck at a certain part.''' The game's story mode is mostly linear and can be progressed by clicking on the town/dungeon with the "Next" arrow. However, the story is incomplete and the game is always continually updated with more story content every month. Whenever you have reached the part where it shows "To Be Continued", you have reached the end of current story. Check Walkthrough or towns, dungeons, and explorations pages to see all currently released content.
