Evidence and review signals
This is where the page changes from an app-store listing into an evidence report: findings, important reviews, pricing and a dated history.
What we measured
Each line is a measurement published as a measurement, never a verdict.
Each line is a measurement, published as a measurement. Where we have not looked, the line says so rather than reading as a zero.

Themes reported by reviewers
No theme reported
Counted from the reviews we have read for this app. "No theme reported" means no theme reached our reporting threshold — it is not a finding that nothing is wrong with this app, and we do not say it is.
Five-star share of ratings
65–79% five-star
Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.
In the package we scanned
No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence about the app, not a finding about it.

Representative public review excerpts shown as user reports, not Appworthy audit evidence.
“95% advertisement watching, generally double ad 60seconds per ad. It isnt one click per ad anymore either. You click, watch, wait, click again, which takes you out, click back in, click again, wait for x. It is insane. Pvp is trash and no…”
“Not f2p friendly. Yes you can grind free to play and watch over 23 ads per day just for a small power boost that gets you nowhere. Events are p2w. This feels like bit heros. You can play free but you'll pay to compete.”
