★★★★★ "Too Expensive. Most recent changes to cost of iron are over the top and not acceptable. Too costly to make progress in game. A lot better games out there with realistic and fun progress more closely aligned to cost to play." - Nonexxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Too Expensive
Most recent changes to cost of iron are over the top and not acceptable. Too costly to make progress in game. A lot better games out there with realistic and fun progress more closely aligned to cost to play.
I tried…
I’ve tried for years to get Dart spending $100+ for her is way too much but then the seasons come along and I barely can’t get it, this years Thawfest I was 750 flags away… needing $30 for the damn exclusive, for that one more to get her, we are broke and can’t spend that much, this proves big corporations hate all of us unless we have money to give! Wasted $39

I wish I could ride the dragons
You don’t get to ride the dragons there’s ads it’s so annoying like what’s the point I just want to ride the dragons. It would be so much fun to go to the ships and actually like dodge or the ships cannons.
Always looking for a way to charge
This was supposed to be free in the Apple Arcade yet constantly trying to have you buy something
Doesn’t let me log back into my account
I have a Facebook account linked and it’s a high level. I had the account on my old phone but I tried to connect so I could relog in and it tells me to log out and go to menu to sign in. Did that and there’s no Facebook link.
Dying game do not play
The recent brawl change, which is notoriously bad. Along with them messing with existing journey reward pools SPECIFICALLY to make them worse has not only drastically worsened the enjoyment of the game, but has me feeling like this game is sadly nearing its end.
It was good while it lasted, but pushing out paywall after paywall + nerf updates to try and squeeze every last cent you can get out of your players will turn around and bite you inevitably.

Fun but disappointing
It’s a fun game I’ve been playing for a long time but I hate how there’s so much pay to play. I also had a LOT of cards packs saved up but when I updated the game they delete every pack I had saved in the mail and I lost so much from them doing that:(
PLEASE Help Your Players
I know this is probably a shot in the dark and the developers will probably never see this but I told myself that it’s better to speak out than to never say anything at all…I love this game but there is a huge problem when it comes to the obscene time wall behind EVERY single thing that you do in this game. Whether it’s resources, building huts, gathering iron, training dragons, unlocking packs, etc. there is a time wall of HOURS that it takes you to simply play the game. Again I love the game and I want to play more of it but I can’t do that if everything is locked behind hours or even DAYS of waiting. And if I don’t want to wait behind the time wall then there’s a pay wall but that’s a completely separate thing for a completely separate review. All I’m saying devs is that for the fans of the game who really enjoy the game and want to play it more please don’t continue to punish them by making them wait to simply enjoy the game that they’ve put so much of their TIME into. Thank you and I really hope someone reads this and makes some changes at the higher level. Good luck guys.
Patched Out the Only Thing that Made it Playable
I got back on again for the first time in a while and found out that about a month ago they “patched” the only good way to get runes (the ingame currency) without spending real money. Before the update, there was a strategy by using a specific mechanic that wasn’t even a glitch to get runes fairly quickly, though with some risk. They’ve now changed that in a way that no longer allows you to obtain as many runes. This strategy was the only thing that kept the game somewhat enjoyable for me and many others, who don’t want to spend $100 on multiple ingame items, and instead would rather actually play the game enjoyably for free than pay to enjoy it.
Signing in
When I try to login to the game it only shows the guest option and it’s pissing me off. I have so much progress on the game and I can’t login on my google play or Facebook at the mail nor the via page. Fix it
New update
The new update has a massive glitch or bug . I hope it gets fixed as soon as possible
To the creators
You make this game so it’s almost like it’s buy to win. I love the game, it you could be a bit more generous…..if you understand what I mean.
Fair
Not as good so far as the How to Train Your Dragon was.
Not great
The game was fun, but the internet was so bad and slow. I only played for 2 mins and I am still waiting for the internet to work.
p2w
very pay to win and school or dragons was better. worse version of dragon city
Pack problem
I was opening a champion pack I saved up for, took me a month to grind these Odin coins and the second I opened the pack? Game crashes. I did nothing to make it crash though. Same internet, same house, same place in the house, my phone wasn’t lagging at all the game was running perfectly until I open this pack, so I re opened the game in hope of maybe still opening the pack or at least got the cards? Nope zero cards wasn’t opening the pack just nothing but all my coins? Gone I wasted a month for the game to crash and me to get nothing
