| 2024-12-20 |  | | The game itself is good, but you risk getting stuck in a kingdom with rogue players that just destroy all the fun. Then it's super expensive to buy your way out to a different map. Customer support is useless when this happens, and they refuse to help. Edit: As I said, I have contacted support multiple times, but they never actually do anything. |
| 2024-11-10 |  | | If you don't spend money, it's pretty difficult because of all the try hards that have spent hundreds maybe even thousands on game upgrades. Also high level love to teleport and attack your city then teleport away like cowards. Edit: after years this thing is becoming a space hog and still has the issues originally mentioned. Also dont believe the "screenshots" shown above, those do not show anything at all like what this game is. |
| 2024-10-18 |  | | crunchy graphics, low FPS. bad dialogue writing. overbearing tutorial. all characters are too beautiful and too white, it feels unnerving. the characters on the map are too large to fit in their houses, so they just blip out of existence when they go thru the door. honestly, it feels like a bad facebook game. i do understand that it's in beta, but it needs a whole lotta work. godspeed, devs. |
| 2024-09-04 |  | | After playing this game for several years, I have found that you can play for free, but it is very difficult. It takes a great deal of time and even more commitment. The downfall is that the game often cheats you and every time you put in for a complaint, they ask you for screensavers, and even with the screensavers, they often reply by, they don't see discrepancies. I remain committed to playing the game simply because I am a combat veteran, an it helps a little. |
| 2024-09-01 |  | | Glitches, and it's the exact same gameplay as all the others. Wish someone would come up with a better castle battle game. Too much junk on the screen, nothing at all like the ads to get you to play. There is no way to turn off the "helpful hints," which are not helpful, just annoying. |
| 2024-08-01 |  | | Over 2 years in and addicted with a love/hate relationship of this game... online multiplayer with people worldwide. The good and the bad. (1). Good: You get to create a castle. Bad: Castle takes a lot of upkeep and upgrades. ( 2). Good: Game is very entertaining and is consistently updated. Bad: Entertainment means you need to be very active.. about 3+ hours a day to compete. 3. Good: It's free to play. Bad: Is geared towards spenders. Best Upgrades can cost thousand's in Lottery Style tickets. |
| 2024-08-01 |  | | I have played this game for over 2 years. If you are looking for a strategy game, look elsewhere. This game could be super fun, and is definitely pay to win, but there are super states where upgrades are a fraction of the price everyone else pays. So, even if you pay AND are super good at stragey, you will get killed. You can still play for free, like a farmville type game. But if you want to have fun battling with a team and don't want to go broke doing it, I suggest finding a different game. |
| 2024-07-17 |  | | Played a few days to gather 2,000 gems needed to teleport to friend's state. Got the gems, used the gems, tried to teleport, and got a message that I couldn't move there! Mad because my gems were used up and I apparently can't play with my friends! Also, I guess I have a useless teleport. Makes me want to quit the game, even though I liked it up to this point. Update: Just had to make a new account. Was able to teleport and play is going smoothly. |
| 2024-07-02 |  | | Slow to get up dates for windows. Which causes lost rewards, lost features, game crashes and or freeze. Game in 2.25.1v is out and yet windows version is on 2.24.1v the google play BETA app doesn't seem to update game either. Heavy in game purchases. High costs little resources received. Grossly over timed to complete research to upgrade troops and buildings. Has a decent graphic game play for a clicker China game. I play to pass time and have stopped purchasing due server cannibalism. |
| 2024-06-15 |  | | Fun game to pass the time. Do not need to pay to progress, but it takes much longer. Great way to meet people from around the world and make online friends. Great for casual play if you don't mind being at a disadvantage most of the time to people with deep pockets. Micro transactions galore and terrible drop rates/no guarantee that you get what you pay for in loot boxes. If you do spend money, only spend on guaranteed items. |
