Early Access Review
It's a simple game, possibly enjoyable for kids and adults alike if you enjoy Disney in any way.
You have very easy tasks from the get-go, the very rare puzzle that is not just *search for A at place X* and mostly just collecting stuff, much like you would in Animal Crossing. The selling point here is clearly that you have your Disney characters around you - which at the game's current state just means that they have like.. 3 lines they drop if you cross their path (in German mostly not with the correct voices, sadly, even though at least some would have been available). Some of those characters can become a little annoying even; standing in your way, making the same animation in an endless loop until you go further away (looking at you, Maui..). What I personally found sad was that even if you try to connect with the baddies like Scar, they just.. stay evil even towards you.
This game has a lot of potential but I fear it will stick to the current mobile-esque system and not expand on any more complicated systems like for example factions where your decisions actually matter. So far it really doesn't matter what you do or say. It's very... child-friendly, so to say. Even though there are *bad* answers you can give almost in every conversation, the character you are talking to will have forgotten what you picked past the next sentence. Nobody holds a grudge, gets distrustful, angry or happy. It's quite lifeless.

Sadly I cannot recommend this game at the time that I am writing this review.

Now that the premium shop is there and over half the event items are only available if you pay real money, this game turned around to become the mobile game my girlfriend warned me it would become eventually.
Considering I paid to get early access, I just find it revolting that there is that much expensive content coming into this game now. For example: a simple skin for your house was implemented that makes it look like a palace. 3750 Moonstones just for that. Of course you can only but either 2500 Moonstones for $9 or 5500 Moonstones for $18, making this *skin* for your house almost a 20$ investment unless you never paid anything else with those Moonstones, of which you get 50 a day. Oh and such offers don't stick around for long enough to try and lay aside that much anyway; you better just buy it right away.

Honestly, the game isn't bad by definition and I enjoyed my time in it at least enough to come back near-daily, but since the premium shop is in it and a premium track paywalls that much stuff, I haven't played anymore. Maybe I will return at some point; I'll stick to the Discord for now, uninstall and see if any changes happen to the newly implemented paywalling.

Oh and I hate Olaf and just want to kick him each time I see him. -_-'

Ich liebe dieses Spiel; habe nichts daran auszusetzen.
Hier und da kleine Grafikfehler, winzige Animationsfehler, aber nicht ein richtiger Bug.
Multiplayer funktioniert tadellos und macht Laune.
Mein Laptop ist über 6 Jahre alt - wenn's bei iwem Probleme mit der Hardware gibt, dann weiß ich echt nicht, welche. XD

Habe die Story nun durch und muss sagen, die ist absolut schön~ Der Endboss hätte aber ruhig noch bissl schwerer sein dürfen. XP

Einziger Kritikpunkt für mich ist, dass mein Lieblingsmonster aus World leider nicht das Upgrade zum Monstie geschafft hat. Hoffe hier einfach auf ein Odo-DLC. :'3

Ich würde dieses Spiel so gern empfehlen. Und ich tue es auch auf der Grundlage, dass es im Großen und Ganzen kostenlos spielbar ist. Alle Inhalte, die etwas kosten, sind kosmetischer Natur.
Leider reicht dies aber nicht, um über die zahllosen Bugs hinwegzutäuschen, welche auch nach Jahren immer noch nicht behoben wurden. Mit jedem Patch kommen zudem neue Bugs hinzu. Jedes Update macht Probleme. Man bekommt das Gefühl, die Devs spielen ihr eigenes Spiel nicht. Es finden keine Tests statt. So ist zum Beispiel Baba Yaga's Ultimate manchmal einfach nicht nutzbar. Und das ist niemandem aufgefallen. Leute werden aus Lobbies geschmissen und bekommen einen Deserter, obwohl sie nichts dafür können. Ein UI-Update sorgte nun dafür, dass die Freundesliste leer erscheint.
Was dem ganzen noch die Krone aufsetzt, ist, dass die Skins beinahe alle ziemlich eindeutig "inspiriert" sind von Blizzard-Inhalten oder anderswo. Auch die Qualität dieser (Low-Rez-Texturen) ist sehr wechselhaft.
Das Spiel an sich ist gut, es macht Spaß, und ich werde es auch weiterhin spielen. Aber so richtig empfehlen kann ich es nicht, außer man hat gute Nerven.
