Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Tap Heroes is engaging at first but then very quickly takes on its idler tag, but not in the usual fun ways that idlers have. Tap Heroes has little to no variation, after about 20minutes, or around level 30 you have unlocked all the heroes…”
“To unlock all the achievements, you’ll need to leave the game open for hundreds of hours. Aside from that, the in-game options are limited and don’t provide much game play.”
