always bugs
★★★★ Sabrena Clayton 6/29/2026 v1.12.0
BAD UPDATE!!!! before the update your opponents were close in level and/or strength to you and both sides had a fighting chance, now I am getting opponents that have all characters at lvl 100 while my characters are only lvl 50s. I hardly ever win a battle now and its taken all the fun out of this game!!! I really really enjoyed this game and played for hours every day but now I want to uninstall it. so sad they ruined such a great game :(
★★★★ Evan Ullberg 6/29/2026 v1.12.1
this game is fun but their is no customer service, mostly a money grab. Who wants download a 3rd party app to talk anyone?
★★★★ Noland Swan 6/29/2026 v1.12.1
You are up against bots + There are no P v P or battle friends options. There is no surreder/forfeit option. If you tie the opponent wins no matter what. If a tie occurs then you should go into sudden death instead of ALWAYS losing to the opponent. Your game is freezing after watching ads for rewards. If I could I would rate your game at ZERO STARS. I love the game, but you are not doing anything with feedback anywhere including Discord AND YOU ARE NOT FIXING ISSUES.
★★★★ Yx Look 6/29/2026 v1.12.1
starting from morning after watch ads will lag need to restart game play every time after watch ads same problem
★★★★ Joseph Morales 6/29/2026 v1.12.0
Rips card pack advertisement locks my Samsung S24+. Total lock before reward given. Only fix is close app and restart. Fix it!
★★★★ David Robison 6/28/2026 v1.12.1
Messed with the algorithm Was really enjoying the game and even spent a little money on it. Just in the last week, what used to be even matches are now impossible. I'm up against players with 400% more experience points than me (I'm around 11,000, last opponent was over 41,000). This game just became pointless and stressful.
★★★★ Bojan Kumric 6/28/2026 v1.12.0
I play this game 2 months, great balance of power and pvp win skills not a buy in game resources. in last update and next 2 days something happens in game, 95% players have max 100 leveled up. I don't think suddenly people invest 1000€ on app game?!? (cheats maybe 🤔)
★★★★ Lost Cause Racing 6/28/2026 v1.12.0
game update and made it impossible to play without paying. no more evenly matched opponents now they are 3 or more rankings above...for sure easiest way to lose players i will be deleting. was a really fun pastime now it just awful 😖.
★★★★ A C 6/28/2026 v1.12.1
Soooo unbalanced..why would a 9k trophies go against a 77k trophies 🏆...Thats ridiculous...balance the trophies and I will change it back to 5 stars
★★★★ Jorge Arancibia 6/28/2026 v1.12.1
well...all of a sudden...I am being set up to battle with people whose ranking is more than double of mine. I have 17K and change.. I am being set up against folks with 30K+ or 50K+ how is this fair? I guess it is time to drop this trash game
★★★★ Jayrold Dastas 6/28/2026 v1.12.0
Poor matchmaking in Arena 26 (Colosseum). I'm using low to mid-level troops and castle, but I keep getting matched against players with max-level troops and castle, often with much higher trophies. It's very unfair. Even if you use the best strategy, you'll still lose because of the huge level gap. Skill should matter, not just upgrades. Please improve the matchmaking to make battles fair and enjoyable.
★★★★ Charleston Southcarolina 6/28/2026 v1.12.1
Garbage.Why in the tutorial if the actual player is bluevthe unhelpful finger is pointing the wrong way?🙄 Didn't bother to go further.
★★★★ Tyrone Castor 6/28/2026 v1.12.1
garbage match making 8k throphy matched with 65k throphy...level 50 vs level 100 units
★★★★ Michael W 6/28/2026 v1.12.0
Tell you what, when you dumbass algorithm quits trying to pit me with apponents 4x stronger than me I might play it again. Til then I will leave this post up so others wont be suckered into lining your financial pockets to enjoy the game.
★★★★ A.F.M. IMTHAZ 6/28/2026 v1.12.1
after update very annoying that i keep meeting opponents with highest level of castle and troops (level 100) while mine is just like level 60. They take 1 shoot to kill my troop while i need to shoot 4 times to kill one of their troops. Super annoying as it is not a fair game!
★★★★ Vazir Gareev 6/28/2026
I think you play mostly with bots, otherwise i can not explain why my oponents are so dumb. too easy
★★★★ IT LIVES 6/28/2026
made my phone lag like crazy and screen turn Black before sending me back to my home screen don't download this APP
★★★★★ Martin Wood 6/29/2026 v1.12.0
Game itself can addictive but there are glitches & designs that are super annoying. Uneven application of rules with opponents. The touch footprints are often off causing issues too. Then there are the ADs. They are the reason I am uninstalling the app. Frankly, moving the touch footprints to trick me into almost spending money is not okay. And then you get tossed from the app and lose bonuses. Just not worth it n
★★★★★ Greg Gelato 6/29/2026 v1.12.1
Placed 9th in a tournament won a lot of gold and wood, great right! No! Warning popped up that I had another device open to the app. All my winnings were erased. No administrators to contact on app. Not recommended.
★★★★★ Jim Wells 6/29/2026 v1.12.1
the game just keeps freezing and unable to play game watch.
★★★★★ Steve Jade 6/29/2026 v1.12.1
This game was a lot of fun. There should be a warning that tells you once you upgrade a single section of your castle to all lava, you're in trouble. After upgrading I am now constantly facing opponents with 30-40k trophies (I have a little over 12k), and these opponents have full p2w characters all lvl 100. Ridiculous.... I would've recommended before but now no
★★★★★ Shane Moore 6/29/2026 v1.12.1
after a while when im watching an ad to (upgrade or gain more items or xp) after a match ect. the game freezes and I don't get rewarded or upgraded after watching the ad. I don't like spending the money to remove ads (call me cheap what ever but $10 is $10) lol. but other then that the game is easy and enjoyable to play.
★★★★★ Brian Tuchten 6/29/2026 v1.12.1
Rating matches are horrible. I'm at 8000, and the game is constantly matching me with players who are 20k, 30k, 35k ... impossible to win
★★★★★ Lifelongamer 6/28/2026 v1.12.0
Fun game, but progress is slow unless you pay $. One problem with this game lately is it fails to give the extra rewards for watching videos. Also, after playing so many battles you will get a message saying you won't get a chest for winning a battle unless you watch a video. I played the video but when I clicked for a new battle I got the same warning. Tried 3 times. The worst part is that the developer doesn't apparently care. After all, they still make money when you click an ad.
★★★★★ Samuel Smith 6/28/2026 v1.12.0
fun but very pay to win. while I don't mind paying they do have ridiculous prices. much like the majority of mobile games. do yourself a favor and buy a AAA game instead of throwing money at this game.
★★★★★ MICHAEL VELA 6/28/2026 v1.12.0
Great game! It's just too bad you have to pay $10 every 7 days if you don't want ads. I would definitely keep playing, but that subscription cost is just too much. Such a great game, though.
★★★★★ Josh Bilbrey 6/28/2026 v1.12.0
it was fun until I got to the coliseum and got stuck playing against person after person that has 2 million plus points over me and I no longer have any chance at winning which just completely destroyed any desire to play this game
★★★★★ Rob Harris 6/28/2026 v1.12.1
really enjoyed the game before the recent updated. before u only battle opponents near your ranking. Now I only get opponents ranked far ahead of me that I can barely compete with.
