Sdorica sunset | Asia Review(s)
4.4
Very unique and different compared to your usual gacha rpg games. Not very grindy, I'm not sure if it's a positive trait, but at least it is for me because I HATE over-grindy games. The art style is one of the best and the music is superb.
What impressed me the most is with how invested and ambitious the developer team is with the game. You can clearly feel it when playing it, with how they handle the characters and the overall atmosphere in the game. They handle it with utmost care. I feel very invested with the characters in this game. No characters is wasted. The story is also pretty good, though it's not the best out there.
The only downside is with the mechanic and overall content. Though, it's understandable since Rayark is still arguably a small game company and they're still learning with how to make a proper online rpg game which Sdorica is their first. But, it's okay since they seem to fix the problems with the new updates.
[2022-09-07] Season 4 update:
The story IS one of the best out there. I changed my mind. Season 3 had one of the most gut-wrenching story writing, not only compared to other free-to-play mobile rpg, but also rpgs in general. The characters were also very compelling, and had MUCH more depth compared to previous seasons. Season 4 is far from finished, so I can't really say anything.
The gameplay is getting a bit bloated. They added more game modes that are... not as interesting to me at least. The meta always changes based on the newest characters. If you want to get the highest rewards in weekly events, you need to have the best of the best roster with maxed out upgrades. The game is getting grindier for you who wants max rewards from events. It's also getting slightly more pay to win because of the ever changing meta. But yeah that's just how gacha game would survive in the market anyways so it is what it is.

Develop by Rayark that famous by their rhythm games cytus and deemo, sdorica will bring you to fantasy world.
Amazing art, awesome soundtrack, interesting storyline to follow all the best element of rpg games you can find here.
Consider free to play sdorica it's not like any other games, the grinding it's not to heavy that you still can catch up with old player.
Story is have a deep storyline it's not just a simple but indeed amazing story.

•Story
(The reason why old player still playing this probably because they are curious about the continuation of the story)
•Multiple Mode
(Adventure, Venture, and other things)
•There's a server and guild leaderboard system which use scores. A nice place for getting extra pull each week.
(I forgot what it call's since i always shorten it into WT it's probably called Wondering Trial)
•Visual Art
•Character Design
•Rate up is not a lie here (for me)
•Unique 2D Animated VN (Quality increasing chapter by chapter)
•Unique Events
•No need IAP for a good pull (for me)
•Character Skill Animation
•Battle System and Team Composition Synergy
•Easy Coin and Material at the end game
[ - ]
•Too Much Character Introduction in the story which actually good but sometime you just don't have the time to play that long
(There also a separated individual story for each character same as interlude)
•Hard watcher exp, Soul, Coin, and Materials at mid game
(Season 2 is the struggle point)
•Most of Free Limited Event Character or skin require grinding
(It's a Pain to grind without a proper team)
•Some event are confusing
(Fool's tower is probably the hardest? well you can always search for walkthrough)
•Not Much to do when you reach the latest chapter
(They keep the event up and fresh though)
•Izumi Supremacy•

Graphics is good really fits the theme too, just some char movement is a bit awkward.
This is important, this game is evolution based, not rarity. even if you have like 3 star/ssr/the rarest rarity it'll still surpassed by evolved starter char. It's about skill and strategy.(and some rng i think? bc of the puzzle shards in battle)
Sound is mediocre imo ,not many voice lines most is repeated but still nice to hear. Music fits the theme.
Gameplay if you know CODE:SEED then it's like that, match color of the same char the power depends how many you connect em.
what it need is skip mode for farming piece for advance, well since there is no stamina concept there is no skip either.
Storyline is a bit boring but unique, sometimes i skip, when it caught my attention i read it.
Gacha? well.. the currency is a bit hard to get but the price is surprisingly cheap ,just 500 for 10× if you grind the story you might able to do 90+ pulls plus you get items (scroll) to pulls from achievements/missions. But the rate is..... you can say FGO.
But you rather spend gems for upgrading char instead of gacha bc i've said it below graphics rev.
overral 8/10 (at first i was gonna rate it 7/10 since if F2P friendly...yea)

Graphics, it's your 2d simple graphic with vibrant color, I like it.
Sounds complements the feeling whenever you do something very well.
Gameplay, requires planning which orb to pop, what unit do something, when to do it. Overall pretty nice, I could use some brain training
Storyline, very good, although I don't have that many experience on playing game with story-focused content

The character designs are beautiful and the writing is immaculate. Angelica especially feels like one of the most well written and satisfying characters I've seen in a mobile game. the gameplay, too, while not groundbreaking, is defintiely really unique and fun.
Overall I have no real complaints with this game! On top of all that, it's super f2p friendly! I feel like this game has set the bar for storytelling in mobile games so high for me it's been genuinely harder to get into other mobile games stories LOL I'd highly recommend this one to anyone

The graphics and music is 10/10 since Rayark is known for making really good pieces.
The gameplay is very unique (at least the first I've experienced) as you can various combine that you find most effective and using the combines of orbs.
The storyline is the spotlight, very emotional with different POVs.

Graphics:
It's Rayark. Expect beautiful art. the in-combat character arent typical chibi but they still look great as well as skill animation.
Sound:
Again it's Rayark. This is technically their only RPG, but RA is know more for making rhythm games such as Dermo and Cytus. Expect great music. Mostly classical orchestra music.
Gameplay:
Not generic at all. Events also tend to add unique mechanics of play using the command zone. The normal gameplay utilises a turn-based countdown(when enemies will attack), certain enemies can have special mechanics attached to them as well, and a "Command Zone" which is how you manipulate your characters. The zone will be filled at random with purple(black), white, and gold orbs. Most character generally have a 1-orb, 2-orb, and 4-orb skill but as the game developed there are now characters with 3, 6, and 9 orb skills. Which skill the character uses depends on how many you clear on the board. Characters also have passive and "Advisor" skills such as "Attack enemy for x" or "convert 2 selected orbs to black orbs" while passive usually determine how a character should be played.
—The characters are mostly balanced but there is also no PvP, which I have no problem with.
— Dailies are quick. buying something in the market, do one mineral quest and a resource quest.
Difficulty:
The game is relatively easy but there are some stages that are pretty tight because of mechanics that had to be dealt with.
Narrative:
Rayark did a good job balancing comedy and seriousness with the story. Even if I take a break I'll always keep the game and catch up on story.
Value:
It's free. You do also have the option of many different bundles if youre interested in IAPs. I tend to go for the 7.99 packs if I do decide to(you can buy 2 a month I believe) There is also a 2.99 one that becomes available after a certain amount of logins, although a bit short of a multi.

p.s its real F2P game

Im playing this game on Jan 2020, im totally forgot what the game was like. Time to review it
Pros :
- Ongoing banner
- Still many active guilds and players
- No stamina system
- 4years service game
Cons :
- So many servers now ( i dont remember they making many servers before
)- No pity gacha
- Too many loading screens
- So much different skill on characters
Graphics :
The visual itself have an uniqueness from rayark especially on artistic characters, but sadly when im go to setting and try high setting, there's not to much difference between high, medium and low setting.
Sound :
The voice of characters on dialogue only have first sentence. The VA of characters is rather good, but sometimes i need lower volume because it feels like moaning when getting hit
Gameplay :
The gameplay itself bringing something new on RPG era. It has an orb battle system. You can even resurrect your characters when it has some required orbs on battle.
Storyline :
This is the only perfect goods on this game, im really enjoying the story, even i'd have an emotions when the characters do something stupid in the story
Value :
I want to rate it more higher but there's some flaws in the game such as, auto mode. The auto mode itself sometimes do something stupid in the battle and it really can kill your characters in battle.
And there's skill characters, although it goods to have all different skill characters but in the other hand it needs more space to remember all characters skills.
Conclusion :
Im recommended this game if you want to have a different battle systems mechanic RPG. It has super story to enjoy it until the end, dont worry the story itself is rather easy so you can keep going until the end.
Happy gaming folks!
