Amazing game! Everything about it is beautiful. Character design, costumes, background art... 🧑‍🍳💋 I have SO much fun replaying the stories, unlocking memories, playing the minigame, all of it is fantastic. Unlike similar games, Arcana doesn't make you feel guilty for not choosing premium choices, which is always appreciated. I just wish there was a way to make your own avatar. And probably more ways to earn coins, like +10 every memory earned or story finished.

This game makes it so incredibly difficult to get coins, which are basically needed to do anything fun in game. It is such a an incredible pain with the back that I can't play anymore. You want coins? You get 40 after 4 different ads and then have to buy more with real money. The story is fine, but the game sucks. Would not recommend unless you want to spend your actual money on coins that get used up with a few choices.

Heart Hunter is getting frustrating, I spent coins to get a total of 9 turns today and won once. I feel like it's rigged to let you win frequently at first and then later it'll allow you to get up to 3 hearts on a character but somehow never win. I thought it was just bad luck but I looked it up and found many reviews of others having the same experience so now I think it's coded the same way gambling games are where you need to pay to win which is ruining the experience.

So sorry to see that you are frustrated with the Heart Hunter minigame! It’s all about chance, and is not rigged. We appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback.
