A very nice game but whenever I press the back button to close the game it just sends me to the homescreen without closing the app. I have to manually swipe it away from the recent apps list else it drains battery.

D70%
by D####:

I'll be playing this game a lot. Seems to have great replay value. Great work devs! Except the ui is kinda shitty. it's way overdone. Theres just too much if it while the play area is this small window in the middle. I'd remove most of the decorative framing and go for something a bit more minimalist. This is going to keep bugging me every time I play it. Id be really happy to see this adressed in a future update. But thanks for a great game!

L70%
by L####:

I really love this game ok. To me it's a shining example of what strategy games can be. It's not about just honing a known strategy or puzzling through super specific situations. It's about the discovery of entirely new types of opportunities that can be creatively remixed and combined with each other in a variety of situations. After more than 1200 matches I'm still being genuinely surprised and delighted by new tactics I've never considered before. It's a top tier strategy game. I highly recommend it.

U70%
by U####:

Auro is a deep, well thought out game that demands your attention. Play until rank 4 before making up your mind.

K70%
by K####:

Allright, che game is awesome. Pixel art level is stunningly high, especially the animation is over the top. I have one bug though. Once I bounced over an Evil Kid who was standing on a teleport-to-next-level platform and into water. The screen then went on loading and is not recovering. Since I'm getting seriously addicted to this game I'd REALLY LOVE to get some support. Gave 5 stars anyways because the product is awesome.

Beautiful graphics, fun gameplay.

R70%
by R####:

Auro is a really deep, yet easy to learn game. There is a lot of strategy embedded into a very small number of tools, and the amount of polish that's gone into the game's design is clear when playing. Plus, I love that there are no android permissions required

O70%
by O####:

Auro is an amazing game in which you are challenged to kill monsters using clever combinations and emergent chain reactions. It plays like no other game on the market, and treats the player's time with the utmost respect.

M70%
by M####:

Definitely in my top 5 'games i really enjoy and play often'. That said i know there is a major update imminent---please hurry the version 2.0 update!

Q70%
by Q####:

Former bugs are fixed, like it so far, although it's best viewed on 8 inches or less display. Excellent for phones.

X70%
by X####:

Promising, but waiting for the several month-old 2.0 patch to be ported before starting to play seriously.

N70%
by N####:

Fun, but not as entertaining as 100 rogues and it is quite a pricey app for its features.

W70%
by W####:

not always but still often enough to skip this otherwise interesting game

Update please

This game is a challenge and takes true skill and strategy. The play is rapid and very satisfying. The art and music are also some of the best you'll find.

by D####:

Play mode is very functional now, play increasingly difficult levels and slowly meet the new baddies

D70%
by D####:

I love that the game has no IAP and has great replay value. Once you get the hang of the gameplay, it's a challenging puzzle different with each game. I am more than willing to pay the money up front and enjoy a game designed to be fun, not to monetize on IAPs. If you are into spatial, chess like puzzles, give this game a chance.

Support the developers, this is a good game. OK Dinofarm, I left my good review. NOW can I have 100 Rogues again? It was my favorite game!!

D70%
by D####:

Ive played in years. Elegant and emergent problem solving, intuitive and emergent difficulty. Metagame framing rocks too, using a streak based ladder ranking system. Do yourself a favour and play it.

D70%
by D####:

Hard and rewarding. Takes a ton of strategy and learning to master. Really great game.

D70%
by D####:

Easy to use and fun to play.

D70%
by D####:

From a game design perspective, it's very mechanically and artistically sound. Ranked system keeps it challenging. RNG never determines success. Love it.

by D####:

This game is great! The characters are really cute, great music and atmosphere and it's funny too! Can't wait to play it more! Awesome job Dinos!

W70%
by W####:

I have a soft spot for pixel art, so the visuals of the game are really impressive to me. I didn't "get" the gameplay at first, but once I got the hang of it I was hooked, and it's not the kind of game I usually fall for. And now that I know it's also coming to Linux, I can't think of any reason not to give this a 5 star; great work :D

C70%
by C####:

I love clever, playful puzzlers like this. The one drawback for me is that the graphics fall somewhere awkwardly between retro pixel art style and hi-res modern style. For my taste it would have been better to go with a lower resolution, making it charming and adorable. Instead, my eye sees it as an awkwardly low-res version of what was intended to be a crisp high-res game. I know that isn' t the case, and I'm still trying to fall in love with the look. Maybe with time...

It's a special thing you guys have created here. Just backed the expansion on kickstarter, and I look forward to the finished product. Have you guys considered using Google play games service for some achievements?

Here's my problem with your suggestion of changing my difficulty level if losing 50% or more of my games: I crush Rank 8 like it's child's play. I barely even have to think to finish it off. I feel invincible. Clearly this difficulty is not challenging enough to be rewarding. Then I go (with straight wins) to rank 9. All of a sudden the game is almost unplayable. I can never consistently succeed and am, often times, put in unwinable situations. Balancing needs to be reworked. This game is no longer fun

C70%
by C####:

It's a great game, very addicting. But sometimes it force close when entering a level. Please fix this.

C70%
by C####:

Fun game although some powers seem better than others. Also Liches seem wildly OP compared to all other monsters. Hope they add new monsters soon.

C70%
by C####:

This game has an interesting combat system, while I don't quite get the graphics style: it doesn't look like a modern game with pixel art graphics, but more like a genuine old game. Mixed fillings. But probably this is just me. I will definitely play more - since the gameplay itself is very clever.

I70%
by I####:

Reasonably good game mechanic, but with no campaign, objectives or anything else to keep out interesting. Sad excuse for a story

by C####:

Can you guy make it where we can move the map around so we can tell and plan our next move so we know where and whats out on the map

C70%
by C####:

Took me a few goes to get the hang of it, now I'm hooked on it, is a good one to think ahead, plan your moves, & plays in a way which means you can play a quick 5 minute session or a longer one, great game for a phone.
