About this app

■ Extensive Story Mode Ten Books of original content set in a world inspired by Norse mythology!

On top of that, stories of Heroes throughout the series unfold. You can see Heroes in different outfits than they wore in past Fire Emblem games, inspired by such things as Halloween or a tea party.

New stories are added every month. Don't miss them!

■ Extensive Orb Distribution and Hero Gifts Clearing the story and completing select events will earn you Orbs, which you need to summon Heroes. Save up Orbs and welcome Heroes into your barracks.

Also, you can have Heroes who were voted as some of the most popular join your barracks soon after starting the game. Plus, when you progress through the Heroes' Path quests, some of the most popular Heroes in series history can join your barracks.…

What we measured

Each line is a measurement published as a measurement, never a verdict.

How these are measured

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
1 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

From the package we downloaded and read — version 10.9.0, scanned 2026-09-17.

Permissions Android classifies as dangerous
None requested
Counted against the eighteen permissions listed in collect-package.ts. A dangerous permission is one Android asks the user to grant; requesting one is not itself a finding.
Analytics or tracking SDKs in the scanned package
1–2 found
Advertising SDKs in the scanned package
None found
Counted as distinct SDKs in the package we scanned. One mediation bundle can contribute several, so this is not a count of advertisers.

Developer says data deletion can be requested
Measuredfrom the store listingview evidence
The developer's data-safety disclosure on the store states that users can request deletion of their data, or the app's own text offers a way to delete the account. This restates what the developer declares; it is not a test of whether deletion works. Apple publishes no equivalent disclosure, so on an Apple-only listing only the app's own text can support it.
What we saw: The developer's store data-safety disclosure states that data deletion can be requested; we have not seen a deletion control in the app's own text

One source only — shown, not confirmed 1

A single kind of evidence. We publish these because withholding them would be the bigger distortion, and we do not treat any of them as a finding we stand behind.

“This game is well and truly dead. The power creep is so extreme that some units can reduce 99+ to 0, making them unkillable. Devs are just chasing money from overly competitive players who will buy orbs to get the next game-ruining unit…”
