Pay to play at its worst. Unless you spend $5k or more you won’t have an elite account

I’ve been playing for 3 years and my archers are 1300, but the top players have almost 3k. This is a money pit. Stay away

Used to be fun

This game was fun 4 years ago when I first started playing. Now it's really boring. They stopped developing levels so don't be misled by the screenshots. Half of those ingame games don't exist.

What next? 500 level cap

I downloaded this game for the mini game. The PvP component of the game is ridiculously complicated without much guidance. Now the mini game stops at level 500. If the game is just building an empire slowly after , it’s not worth my time.

Confusing

Deleted this mess of a game. Way too much going on, and some things locked behind requirements like joining an alliance, which just opens your player up to attack and capture from other players, just destroying the fun. Also a lot, I mean A LOT of stuff will require in app purchases, even on an arcade game?!? The entire reason for the arcade is to do without constant micro transactions. It was fun but so confusing, so many different menus and options and things to claim, and upgrade and pop-ups notifications and hero's and armies and I'm just so incredibly confused. And I'm sorry but some of the English translation is not good so it makes understanding what I'm doing even more difficult. I just wanted to keep playing the tower takeover game, and the territory part is cool and all, but at level 50, I don't get what to do anymore. And it appears any progress is limited by not being in an alliance. I just want more tower stuff.

Latest update is abysmal

The latest app update is abysmal. Start-up is slower than ever. Weekly competition used to be boring and repetitive, but was a nice break, now it’s just too difficult to have as weekly competition. The game seems to be easy at some parts of the day and more difficult at others. Seems like they try to lull you in and then make it difficult at others to convince you to pay $80 for an upgrade.

Can’t play with friends

The game itself takes planning and tactics. You have to play the long game, which makes you keep coming back. Lots of different game plays each day, so keeping track can be daunting. If you like this type of game it can be extremely fun. The biggest downfall for me is that I joined to play with friends. If you don’t join the exact same time with all your friends you have to wait 30-60 days to be able to immigrate to the kingdom they are in to play together. Ultimately making you to have to play alone for that time period. If your looking for a game to play with or against friends this is NOT it. It’s setup so only the top 5 alliances prevail, so you better join one immediately to be protected.

Would rate negative stars

On Monday, June 19, Skydradon’s game glitched and issued a system-wide email reward that was very generous. I cashed in. Later, I got an email where they admitted they screwed up and said they were going to take away those rewards and everything I bought and upgraded with it. Which, they did today. I want everyone to know how crappy this game software is written. So, if you do decide to get involved in this game, be prepared for an extremely buggy experience that never gets addressed. Skydragon ignores feedback like this and others that I have given because they don’t care about the players, only that players spend money.

Core game is good, but…

It suffers from feature bloat. The game doesn’t know what it wants to be. On the one hand, you have the actual game of growing your island in RTS point capture levels. On the other, you have kingdom building mechanics, complete with buildings, upgrades, attacking other players, etc. While combining the two, the game does not do so in a cohesive way. The kingdom stuff has nothing to do with that I want to play the game for, to the point that I haven’t touched it. However there is a way they could have been combined to make this interesting: the RTS levels are not pre-made, but player made, built from the kingdom build stuff. So instead of the generic kingdom game, where you just wait for the time to pass and hope for the best, you can set up defenses can can only attack or be attacked while online (no need for an actual map like there is now, just do match making). This way the core gameplay loop isn’t disconnected from the actual game. You could even merge having an army with this. Bigger your force the bigger your starting position in the RTS part. Similarly, much like other kingdom games, make buildings placeable on plots, gained and lost via conquest of others. This would allow for continued opportunities for micro-transactions, and indeed, I would suspect increase interest from the average player and thus the transactions purchased. If I had to guess, most players play until the kingdom building stuff starts to assert itself, then either ignore it or stop playing. Also a couple UI recommendations: -You need a settings menu, or a mute button. I sometimes want to listen to other music while playing and I can’t do that with earbuds because I can’t disable the music. If there is a way, it needs to be obvious. -let players zoom out to move around the island more easily. -there are too many unclear buttons in the middle and top of the screen, many of which are various sales. Some though are things like daily rewards, which could stop appearing after they are claimed until next time. This would help keep the game from feeling cluttered, like it currently does.

Illogical user interface

Advert bears little resemblance to real game. Random upgrades of random buildings, with no apparent reason for any of them. Ugly illogical UI makes this a builder type game that tries to have some extra on top but fails badly. It is a mess of different things going on in the background with no explanation as to what purpose they serve. Trying to be something but really no idea what it is trying to be. All the sideline “lord” and barracks stuff seems to have no place or if it does you have badly failed to explain why they are there. The bottom of the screen has some sort of indicator at the end of each round with 0/0/1 or similar. What on Earth is all this tat?

★★★☆☆ United Kingdom · v1.6.6 · 7 Jul 2022

Good game, but over complicated

This is a great game, defeating the other teams by taking over their towers. Love it. The puzzles are what I want to play and, although I enjoy them, the rest of the game is unnecessarily complicated : upgrade towers, random icons which mean nothing to me, weird extra tools, etc. I just want to play the game, repeat levels I failed, beat previous best times and then go about my day. I do not want to faff about upgrading and buying stuff just to play the game. EDITED TO ADD : What an odd response from the developer! I found the game annoyingly complicated, when it would be great as a simple ‘defeat each level and move on’ kind of a game. I don’t need to contact the developer to ask for instructions. YOU asked me to review the game!
