Dumb with a side of boring
This game is a waste of space. Its so bad, my phone is about 75% empty and i am still going to delete it
New update!! 🤡
The game was just updated today as a way to help the players with the commonly complained about issue of accidentally combining troops they hadn’t intended to the devs gratuitously added a charge to upgrading troops!! How kind making players pay the games most valuable resources to upgrade what had always been free just so they wouldn’t do it accidentally! Why put a pop up confirmation when you can put a payment confirmation instead!
Anti-player paywall for troop upgrades
Up to this point, you could upgrade troops to level 6 for free. Sometimes because of utility and skills, it is better to have two level 4 troops over one level 5, etc. Because of this people tend to wait until they have three copies to upgrade one but there is a mechanic when placing troops in a layout that lets you auto upgrade troops and people asked for a confirmation button to prevent accidental upgrades. The solution was to force players to use Forge Stones to upgrade to level 5 and level 6. Forge stone are harder to get than the main paid for currency of gems. Before this you only needed forge stones to upgrade to level 7 and beyond. Do not give this game anymore money until they fix this anti-player update.
Full of Bots
The co op mode is full of bots that feed of your work. It’s pretty much pay to advance and win. I wasted months before I found this out. This post will save you the time. Ruined game.
False advertising
Nothing like the ads
Eh
Pretty boring. Unless you you’re willing to pay real money for upgrades it’s not worth it at all.
False Adds
When I first found out about this game it was through a add and it was showing that this game was a war simulator where you have your own land and fight others to gain more territory etc I thought this was gonna be a mobile version of HOI 4 where you take command of ur country but in reality this game is just a simulator where all you do is buy cards and merge them with ur troops to level them up and fight bots in a linear map Thats tiny this game genuinely sucks I’m not the one to immediately call a game bad when. I don’t like it I always say “I’m just not the target audience” but this game is just boring the bots are so easy a 5 year old can beat this game seriously I would’ve been more kinder and gave it more thought if this game atleast had a larger map and try to be what they advertised or atleast give us the ability to command our troops and tell them what enemies to target first but nope u just watch 1 min of ur army fighting bots and repeat genuinely this game sucks and I refuse to believe their are 6 thousand people walking on this earth who rated this game a 5/5 either they were on something or didnt see the ads

Fake AD
Don’t waste your time it is your usual fake AD game that once you download it plays nothing like the advertisement. This is just another money farming game, since micro-transactions became a thing they build games around being able to get the most money from you not focused on making it good at all. I am leaving 1 star reviews on all these games to hopefuly some day get rid of this trend. P.s. it would be a good game if it was like the AD that made me download it.
Not what I thought it was
Saw the game on a add thought it was super cool and it would have been but sadly it’s much smaller battles nothing like the adds it’s like merge tactics
Not Worth Your Time
Just started and the first 2 battles are SO SLOW! Its barely begun and this is the speed of play pretty? Its the slowness along with just such a very, very basic animation that say “Its that is?”. Its a pretty quick uninstall, produce quality not this.
Boring
More boring
Not as advertised
How did this get such a high rating???
Bot game
This game have no sense..
Total bull
Man talk about a money hungry non consistent game
Not good game
This game was not good n the ads ain’t even close to how it plays I wouldn’t download ts
Paywall
You hit a hard wall at a certain point of progress that forces you to spend money to continue.
false banned
my account got banned for no reason, with the unban date displayed as 1970-1-1. i cant use contact us though app(a warning message blocked my screen)
Just got banned…?
I would like to find out why I was banned. I’ve been playing for awhile now and I love every thing about it so far. BUT I just tried to play again because the chests for adventure mode was going to refresh and it said I was banned for “abnormal gameplay” not sure what that means, it’s pretty vague. I assure you I wasn’t cheating with any third-party apps nor have I spent money, so I would like to be able to play again. Thank you.

Love it but banned
I was loving the game until my account was banned for “abnormal behavior”. Not sure what that means, I really like this app but now I can’t play it :(
Really???
Was banned for no apparent reason and was not provided an explanation when asked why.
Impressive
Never rated a game before- should feel special.
But then I’ve never been banned from a game before, either.
Reasons?
No clue.
I didn’t rate the game when prompted in-game. Could be it.
I didn’t make any in-game purchases like they would have wanted. Could be it.
Only loaded into the game on three- four occasions, top. Could be it.
I’m not so smart as to hack into anything- on an Apple device, especially. So… ‘cause I’m on an iPhone? Could be it.
Meh- was a few more plays from deleting anyway, so this is probably it.
Keep your game bros. It was one star anyway.

False advertisement
Played for 2 days and haven’t been able to have a battle like the ones on the preview video
Game sucks bro zero strategy
Sucks totally sucks

Trailer
The trailer I saw on instagram looks nothing like the actual gameplay.
Energy based
Lowest possible rating immediately after opening. I will never play an energy based game.
Bad
I wanna give it negative star but I can’t, I’ve been seeing ad bout this shi and it doesn’t even look the same, plz no one download this game bc it’s not the same as the ad and it’s awful plz no one download this game.
SuperCell Copycat
The worst programmed mobile game I have ever had the unfortunate experience of playing. It wouldn’t be the end of the world if the company/team behind the actual product cared about the consumers/players. Any attempt I made to address issues was met with stupid excuses that were never thoroughly explained or corrected in the game or by the team/company. They have truly shown that their only interest is to be as profitable as possible at any expense to the enjoyment of the game.
Developers getting greedy
Game itself is great. Simple to play and good mix of game modes. The issues come from rewards and value of packs to purchase. Just over the last couple weeks, prices have risen on most items and rewards have been reduced. Also requirements for upgrades are ridiculous. Changes need to be made in the players favor before the community collapses.
Pay To Win/Play
This games really cool but the greedy developers put a price tag on every possible thing in the game. The first 2-3 hours of game play is fun, no need to pay to progress. Then you literally can’t play anymore unless you buy “credits” or the battle pass to get a little boost in credits to keep playing. Before here I was playing clash royale and I’ve spent plenty of money there over the years and it never felt like they were holding the game hostage if you didn’t empty your wallet. These micro transaction mobile games are a scam on your entertainment. I can spend $60 on a PS game and never pay a dime forever on after while progressing in a competitive environment and then I’ll buy the battle pass or some skins etc if I choose but whether I do or don’t it doesn’t effect my gameplay. It’s a shame. 10/10 don’t waste your time on this garbage.
No support
Logged in one day, and the game randomly removed me as leader from my guild. The support button in the menu doesn’t work. If the devs see this and give me my guild back, ill change to 5 stars.
pay to play sht
unreal play without donate
Game breaking errors
Was playing for about 3 straight hours then a message “an error occurred” popes up and the gold I had spend on recruitment was lost, 48,000, so I refreshed and it dumped the last 2 hours of work and I was unable to fix it. Back to a noob. There isn’t anyway to contact support. So don’t invest into this game. It has game breaking “errors” and no way to contact support.
Nothing at all like the ads
The ads made it look like a cool RTS game. The real gameplay is nothing at all like this.
Fake Gameplay
Saw an ad for it on Instagram, and while the ad shows a game that looks more like an RTS (almost something like Warcraft or StarCraft), when you actually play it, it is not. Not even close.
Connectivity
Connectivity issues with Co-Op. I am upset that I can have my music application loading but for whatever reason my connection becomes lost or disconnected despite having connection.
This is a good game strategy game and I am upset that I am specifically having issues with this application. Thank you .

F2P PLAYERS STAY AWAY
The game concept is quite good it has a lot of potential, but I’ve never seen a bigger disparity gap between F2P and P2W. Not one player in the game has a max line-up yet, and the gap increases with new troops being added all the time. Give a F2P 200 years and they still might not max out their troops. It rewards players that spend money rather than actual skill. They need to make the rewards in the game much more competitive and make it easier to max out of lineups in order for the game to become sustainable otherwise users get discouraged easily and quit. Because even the top spenders, no matter how much they spend there’s always a bigger spender they can’t beat since there’s no cap to for same troop level players to have a battle of skill. Just a credit card battle at this point
Crash too often
Game is pretty fun, but seems to crash after every co-op session. Game will also randomly crash every 10 minutes or so.
👍
Not like the ads but still fun 👍
Fun at first, then pay wall to proceed.
I played the game up until I reached level 7. The game makes you feel a real sense of progression at first. Then all a sudden, you start losing. You cannot proceed unless you draw thousands of troops which take tons of either time(during that time you are losing which makes progress even slower) or tons of money. I get that spending a little money on a mobile app is acceptable, after all, these people don’t make games expecting zero money for it. But you need hundreds of dollars to even be mediocre. This doesn’t seem apparent until you reach level 7. The process is extremely predatory since gambling is how you receive just about everything in this game.
TLDR: The game sucks you in, you play for a while and you have to gamble to progress.

Banned ?
Game is ok but out of nowhere they ban me weird not sure why
Don’t waste your time
Mediocre gameplay at best. Lags and crashes consistently. Not worth the annoyance.
Typical in app purchase rip off
The game is fun and has lots of activity but to advance past a certain point you need “forge stones” which don’t pop up often enough and the only way to be competitive is to buy add ons in the game. Which could cost you hundreds of dollars. No game on my phone is worth that much money Deleted the app because I hit a wall where I couldn’t advance any further
Error
The multiplayer team up option doesn’t work. It just pops up wave 1 over and over and over and doesn’t load in.
Make it like the ads
Why do you have to make fake ads? If you actually made it like the ad as another game mode or something it would be better
Little to no instructions
I want to like this game. Seems like it could be fun and strategic, but there’s almost no tutorial. No instructions. In fact there are currencies that they give you that I cannot find any description for cannot find out where you spend it or why they even give it to you. I’ve looked up online to see if there’s any strategy only to find out the videos just show people playing the game without any context or verbal discussion.
Was fun
The game was fun until they loaded it with a bunch of bots and that’s all you’re playing against
