HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (126 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ One, if you're playing on iPhone get ready for the game crashing after certain critical battles.

★★★★★ Can't open game on my Iphone6 IOS version 9.3 Everything freezes on that starting page where it says "Loading hero"

★★★★★ The game isn't bad but very slow to do many non battle actions (always waiting for server response).
Bugs, things not working9%

3 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ But over the last few years the slowly accumulating amount of bugs not fixed, the increasing amount of for-cash offers and the current changes to the guild events have turned GoW into a painful grind.
★★★★★ App has been down for 3 days now like seriously?
★★★★★ Some serious card nerfing needs to take place because the game in now broken.
Login and account problems6%

Was great til update

Since the last Apple update, game won’t launch. It is a widespread problem that isn’t being fixed.

★★★★★Sep 13, 2026
Over-monetized

I was disappointed with how heavily monetized the game is. Yes, they acknowledged it in-game, but it’s still such a big part of the game. I gave it more than one star because it’s not forced monetization, but still.

★★★★★Mar 21, 2026
Unable to sign in after most recent update

Consistently uncle to sign in after the latest update.

★★★★★Nov 17, 2025
Gems of war is great

Totally awesome way to blend two game types. Gf and I play all the time

★★★★★Sep 10, 2025
Playing since this was a DS Game

This game is nearly 20 years old - and I still love it. I love my guild, I love the game play. There’s no true end game, so it’s great for hardcore or super casual players. 0 ads, no real reason to spend money (power levels for more hourly gems), and actually challenges you as you progress.

★★★★★Sep 27, 2024
Top game

Challenging and entertaining. Not just some gem or gummy game. Terrific find!” “This is like the version of Puzzle Quest I never knew I wanted. Oodles of quests, challenges, guild activities, cool monsters, arena fights, ranked fights, and man I could just play that treasure mini game all day.” “This is gems and fee to play done right. You don't need to spend money but if you can, you will. It won't make you overpowered, but you will have fun with it. The game play is great and varied. There are tons of different options.” “Different than other match 3 games, very fun and addicting. Keeps me entertained for hours.” “This game is FANTASTIC! I was a huge fan of the original game "Puzzle Quest" and this game is created by the same people. The other "Puzzle Quest" sequels have been disappointments and I haven't enjoyed them. This game however, has the same great game play.” “It's refreshing to see a game without timers or stamina. I can play this game for hours without needing to wait.” “This helped cure me of candy crush.” “Over the years, many games have come and gone on my phone. But this one is always there. Free. No ads. No limited-play "lives" (think Candy Crush). No real downside. Your standard colored-gem matching game with a wonderfully nerdy twist!” “My wife almost leave me because of this game, and it happened twice. Nuff said.”
