If I could give it 0 stars, I would
My next entry: they just broke the game and are again, lying about it!
They added a new feature Monster Generator (which allows the player to create an invader or ghost on their own.) I believe this feature was introduced without adequate testing because now, no resource lairs are produced when killing ghosts or invaders. These resource locations are the literal lifeblood of the gameplay. When I reported the bug I was told by support that it is the new design change, but other kingdoms are still today posting results showing that their’s are working as expected. Support is lying and not escalating the Fatal Bug!
> > >
My original honest review (below the line) just got a reply from the developer. They said, “Thanks for the review. We process each request individually. Please tell us more about the difficulties you have faced by email and we will assist you. We'rewaiting for your feedback.”
Well, it would seem to me that they’ve already got my feedback. Although my negative review may have gotten their attention briefly, it is highly unlikely anything different will be done this time - but, I will send a copy of my previously ignored complaint to the address they provided to see.
I will update with any positive changes... If there is no update - then it just means my recommendation given here stands.
-------------------------------------------
After year's of frustrating play, where other players don't honor their agreements, I’d finally accepted that players with bad attitude were just a part of the game I was going to have to accept. What has finally, after several years, led me to post this review has been the consistently bad attitude, Service (servers continually going down, server lag causing one to miss plays or get killed, etc.), and dealing with a company that is fully incapable of even the slightest understanding of what the word Support means. I know a little about the software/server Quality & Support issues, how difficult it can be, and what constitutes “Good Support” having been a Director of Software Quality Assurance for a gaming company, and Director of Engineering Services (which included QA; Technical Support, Training, & Publications; and Release Engineering). I can say, without reservation, that for the money required for you to effectively play at the higher levels (and if you want to quickly succeed at the lower levels) this has to be some of the worst support I have ever received. After several years, I have finally determined (after this final fiasco) that I will play out the value of my accounts, and never again play again afterwards. Waiting for several days for the delivery of crucial purchased resources within the game, being charged for those undelivered items accompanied by a refusal to refund the money, having those items then credited to the wrong account... I am done with it! I was a fool to continue playing. My advice: Don't be a fool and don’t start playing this game in the first place.

Overtime pay required to play
I have played Vikings since before Aristocrat mobile and MTG owned Plarium from 2015 to present day. I wanted to dial in a few facts supporting the 1 star review.
1. Plariums customer support absolutely sucks and they are 1000% copy paste responses and beat around the bush that never helps your issue.
2. Literally a 1/4 of the in-town screen is bank offers. Floating majorly around $10-100. If that doesn’t speak volumes, I don’t know what else to say.
3. The game is pay to play, I have wasted thousands on this game of the course of 11 years.
4. The game is no longer fun for numerous reasons. The updates are non stop. You cannot keep up with the updates no matter your play strategy without paying approximately $200-500 per update depending on significance.
5. Constant lagging
6. Any legendary event is already owned by whales who are suspected to be handicapped with money to spend and they absolutely will not give up.
★★★★ StarsNite81 2/5/2026 v6.9.3
Updates for spenders’s only
Unfortunately, all the fun in this game has gone for 90% of the community and the developers will not listen. They just keep adding updates and catering to the players that spend money and I’m not talking small amount of money. You have to spend a huge amount of money to keep up in this game. I personally am slowing down and not playing as much because it is not fun anymore. If they could just stop the updates and let the players enjoy the game or maybe listen to the English community suggestions instead of only a select few that would be great, but unfortunately, like I said, the developers are out of touch and don’t care what the community thinks it’s all about spending for bank packs to keep up these days.
★★★★ EeEEEeE123964 1/16/2026 v6.9.2
Wallet whales unite
Now I wouldn’t mind spending $50 on a cheeky little phone game, if it would benefit you. I’ve done that on previous games and after a month of playing them I was placing top 10 on the server in troop kills events, etc. This game is not that type of game. The devs are more racketeers than software developers. Spend gold to unlock top tier troops, then spend gold to train them. Then they’re completely useless, unless you complete all the knowledge associated with them. The only reason I still play this game is to see the hero attack animation when you attack Norther Vultures.

★★★★ romka20 11/20/2025 v6.8.3
Game is just a money sucker
This game has increasingly become pay-to-win. To progress at a competitive level and keep pace with other players, it requires spending at least $100 per month. After more than 6 years playing I observed that the game’s monetization model has only intensified over time, making it less enjoyable for long term players. Based on my experience, I would NOT RECOMMEND starting this game.
★★★★ Cherry Bomb 344 11/13/2025 v6.8.3

War of Wallets
I enjoyed this game a for a long time. Gradually the price to pay and grow climbed. Recently the cost has become unrealistic, i find I must buy a pack to achieve minimal success or any growth at all.
The game used to give compensation after updates but they removed that as they likewise continually adjust the competitions awarding fewer meaningless prizes and making the checkpoints impossibly harder. I think this will be the end of the game.
The developer chose to send me a reply to my review, basically stating I could buy more pixels to be successful or I could unite with a clan so I can carry the nonpaying but still playing deadbeats along - aka NR.
The review stands its war of wallets- its not a surprise that its pay to play - what has changed is the lack of rewards and unbridled greediness of the developer .

Bad. Dont Play it
It used to be a great game.
There was hope that the new owner would make it better.
But it’s gotten worse
Full of bugs. New features introduced w more bugs.
Rather than delivering on the promises they made
The latest is a new contest they introduced. Tasks unknown. Only the clan chief can acore.
Waste of time
Don’t get started
★★★★ TSFIP 4/15/2025 v6.7.1
Recent update made this game pay to play only
I had rated this game a 5 for the last 10 years I have played, never expected to win against those that pay. It was still fun to close the events and help those in my clan close clan events. However, with the recent update, it is impossible to close out personal events for level 37 or 39 towns without paying. Level 40 towns have always been impossible from a town I was gifted, but I was careful not to upgrade past 39 on my main account. I am considering quitting as many others have already. Runes and new uber chiefs are worthless even to those that pay. Have added more Ubers but reduced level 1-6 invaders, why?Now all the Ubers are gone with those that pay and enhance hit and nothing for free play. Fix this before it is too late Plarium.
★★★★ MatsutakePete 4/11/2025 v6.7.1
Beware, a pay to play game with a dishonest company behind it all!
If you don't want to constantly spend money, then you won't enjoy this scam of a game! Even if you do spend money to participate, or heaps of money to stay competitive, as soon as there are any issues the "support" team (they must be using the term support ironically) dismisses you concerns with no recourse. If you have a pay to play game model , at least provide a basic level of support for your paying customers. Beware of these rip off artists!

This game will literally rip you off. Was idle in the game for only 3 weeks, and they removed the clan I had created and built up with in app purchases. Email customer service asked them to restore or reimburse and they did neither, customer service is completely non existent. Stay away from this developed and especially this game.

★★★★ DingerMA 7/28/2023 v5.9.2
Not fun.
There are too many players at grossly higher levels that got there through pay to play or some other more scandalous means. The game is old. I have played almost every day for around 10 years. I am in a small clan which has been together for most of the time. We use the game for chatting and killing a few minutes out of the day. I would not recommend this game for anyone. Even the chat function is flawed.
★★★★ ATEP23 7/28/2023 v5.9.2
Outrageous
This game honestly used to be fun. Back when Holmgang was 3 trillion influence, and clan sieges were actually doable by one person. But the latest updates have been the last straw! My clan never got to do a single Holmgang, because whenever we got close enough to the requirements, they would raise them, first 1 trillion, then 3, and now 9 trillion. Seriously! Plarium actually makes clan and fury sieges harder now too, so now I can’t do them, and you can’t level down your Tower of Odin. Jotenhiem (not sure what the spelling is) is pointless unless you have several hundred bucks to burn. Asgard- also very expensive. CvC- Plarium also changed those, so I can’t get the last few lvls also. This game is literally designed for only the top spenders! Finally, the last few lvls of Helheim are just a ridiculous waste of time. I really did used to enjoy this game, but the insane amount of money needed to stay ahead is a lethal trap. I heard some of the top dogs spent multiple -THOUSAND- dollars. I don’t think very many people will read this, but to those who have- BE WARNED! It’s fun at first, but if you stick around long enough you’ll be forced into an endless cycle of spending money. I used to enjoy this game, I really did, but now I don’t enjoy this game, and the constant changes will likely continue till the cows come home. I’ll probably try Clash of Clans and see if they change things every two seconds!!
★★★★ Takenyou 7/26/2023 v5.9.2
Targeted Bans for Phantom Rules
This game used to be fun, now this game is being policed by a bunch of crooks. They want you to invest a ton of money to be competitive or even just survive. Then after events they start banning players and taking hard earned skins and prizes for your hard work away and tell you that rule 2.2 has been violated. Thing is that rule covers almost every action a player can perform in game. The support team is a joke, they don’t give specific reasons on why players get banned, clans get fined medals or even skins removed days after certain global events. The support team doesn’t even answer players questions as to exactly why they get banned or what violation was broke. This has lead to other players in game speculating and guessing as to what rule was broken and mis-information is being spread. If you hear back from support before the 24 hr period they tell you they will give you answers count yourself lucky. Then be prepared to be disappointed in the answer they provide. They have this investigation team that magically finds this proof of rule violations but you have to take their word for it because they will not provide any more information about it and they say they are very sorry. Don’t be fooled, they are not sorry about anything. Yet this investigation team can’t seem to find the hundred of players that cheat in this game by hitting Alts filled with billions of troops, trade troops during Jot, make deals with other players to gain more points during HG. They target clans and players and steal their money in forms of Asgard medal fines and taking back skins… new players beware this game is being over policed by white collar criminals. Nothing is guaranteed, if you earn medals or skins during events and are feeling good about your progress in game don’t be surprised to sign into game (if you can get in) to see they have taken back the medals or skins you earned and give you no answers.
Also the lag during events is horrible, barely playable at times… but the only thing you can count on for sure in this game is the lag… they have mastered that portion in game, guaranteed lag.

Extremely poor customer service after malfunctions
Be very careful giving these guys a nickel.
Like other customers I have experienced repeated glitches in this game where the game swallowed a large portion of the game resources I had just purchased.
Upon reporting these errors to customer service they deny it happened. At times I was able to capture screen shots proving it happened and thought they would want to know so they could repair it.
Apparently customer service is headed by Baghdad Bob because despite pictures showing the glitches, they continue to deny it happened.

Viking war of clans
Эта игра бесконечное высасывание денег из игроков, разработчики постоянно обновляют возможности игры тем самым завышают покупку разных строений и изучения знаний, все это становиться невозможно дорогим и уже просто нет сил с этим мириться, разработчики не спускают цены на пакеты с ресурсами и играки тратят большие деньги на это, не рекомендую играть в эту игру так как это бездонное дно высасывания ваших денег.
Так же они блокируют доступ в игру в свой аккаунт не предоставляя не каких доказательств нарушения с твоей стороны, в любой момент могут заблокировать доступ и все что ты потратил (деньги и время) все это анулируется…
This game is endless sucking money out of the players, the developers constantly update the possibilities of the game, thus overstating the purchase of various buildings and learning knowledge, it all becomes impossible to expensive and there is simply no strength to put up with it, the developers do not lower the price of the resource packs and the players spend big money On this, I do not recommend playing this game since it is a bottomless bottom of sucking your money.
They also block access to the game in their account, without finding any evidence of a violation from any side, at any time they can block access and everything that you collect (money and time), all this is canceled ...

This used to be a great game with super social benefits. Each kingdom is full of dead clans, zombie clans and then a few super huge clans made up of people that have more money than good sense. You used to be able to grow with help from others and things were very competitive. I am embarrassed to say I have spent thousands of dollars and I cannot keep up with the big guys anymore. This is not a platform for people who are on a budget.

I used to have lots of fun with this game during its first year but after that it.became a constant battle with lag . developers keep on adding new stuff to make the game interesting but the lag and the bugs never got fixed.

★★★★ michalsd 1/6/2023 v5.7.3
Repetitive gameplay that's expensive
I've been playing the game for year, because of the social aspect of the game. The actual gameplay is laggy at best, sometimes taking a minute or more to get results of the battles, especially in global events like Asgard. Development is slow and I'll thought out, often giving you little advancement, or impossible to achieve unless you are in the highest ranked clans, and spend thousands every month. Support is quick to get back to you if there is a problem, but doesn't enforce the rules of gameplay, almost always say it is your device or network, even when the same issue is experience d by all players. The newest puzzle feature, takes maybe a couple of hours to complete, leaving you to do the same puzzles every day to get the meager daily rewards. There is no way whatsoever to play the game for free, and be competitive.
per the developer response: They are always quick to get back to you, they just never do anything to help out. The features that they add to the game are not what people are asking for. They want a game that is stable, and balanced, which this gam3 is neither.

Bad review deleted
I wrote a review about how much of a many grab this game had become. Then in their most recent patch they added a mini game ripped off from a popular trope thrown into tons of in game advertisements included in almost every App Store game. You know the ones where you try to open a bridge or drop lava on a bad guy that says only 3% of people can beat this! Or where it starts with “Your IQ = 150” then drops to 47 when the game fails. They added that to this game. It’s incredibly cheese and looks like and performs like it was cobbled together by a first year programming student.

Puzzles in Viking
If you want a puzzle game then make it. Putting puzzles and other non clan activities take away from the main idea of the game this is a solo thing and is a deterrent in playing. I have played since the game was 5/6 months old and is get more expensive and less to the intent of a team game puzzles are a time killer. If upgrades needed make it a team upgrade not solo game update that helps clan and playing together. Plus the gifts are useless 20k or less rss really a waste
