Rogue Puzzle Questv0.0.4

Released September 4, 2026Major

Android

The latest update introduced an endgame mode and hero progression mechanics to Rogue Puzzle Quest. While the average rating on Android increased by 0.3 stars, the extremely small sample size prevents a definitive assessment of the update's success. The net impact remains neutral until further data confirms these changes resonate with the broader player base.

Monitor player retention following the introduction of Rift and Hero Ascension to determine if these mechanics successfully offset persistent ad frequency complaints.
Increase the feedback collection period, as the current sample size of two reviews is insufficient to validate the 0.3 star rating increase.
