This game is fantastic in many ways. The graphics are superb. However, once you begin to play there are necessary resources that you must have, to advance. You can purchase them, just attach a credit card. Then, it takes thousands to play. In two years I have racked up over four thousand dollars (USD)! It becomes a freakish desire to better your castle. Then, it was suggested to have a farm castle you can harvest for more resources. Then it requires dollars to advance to have sufficient resources to harvest. More castles, more money! Then, you are a level 13 castle and somebody comes along with a level 29 castle, obviously no contest, and they burn you down when you are not online to defend yourself. Start rebuilding and do you have more money on that credit card? Again, great graphics, the heroes you recruit are phenomenal, the dragon incorporates some great graphics. Overall I like it but have decided no more purchases, and the game now has slowed to a crawl, and when your castle is destroyed while you are not online, well, struggle as best you can and soldier on. If it weren’t for the low life’s burning down all your stuff while you are not online, I would give this game 5 stars.

You do not want to download this game. Sure it’s a lot like the old 90’s computer game which is the reason I got it. But it’s nothing but a money pit. At first I made the mistake of paying for things and I regret it now. Unless you have $100’s and I mean $100’s you will be nothing but a castle that gets destroyed by players that have the money to invest. Which that’s all this game is about fighting castles. I’m not joking unless you have the money to invest you can’t make your castle powerful enough to compete with the ones that do. Don’t listen to the developers they say you have chances at no cost. Yes you have a .01% chance of obtaining heroes that will make you more powerful. Lol. Listen I don’t usually bash games I fall victim to playing phone games like everyone else and will spend some money too. But this is ridiculous. $100’s I mean it too $100’s if you don’t have the cash flow I would stop now. Or you will just be castle bait for the castles that do spend the money and that’s what the developers want. They update things In the game all the time that make you want ti spend money so you can be the most powerful castle. You could download this game drop a $1,000 and be more powerful than castles that have been playing it for years. Well that’s my spill I’ve invested enough that I can’t walk away just yet but regret it every second. Good luck ha now it won’t let me post this review of course

The game in general is good however, there is no restriction on how players act towards others. It feels as though the developers only care about the money coming in instead of the racist derogatory comments that are made by players. We have players making threats to families, racist remarks etc yet their accounts are still active. I would post pictures if if could but can’t in this review. Those accounts need to be banned permanently but because they spend money it’s “ok”. Once the developers get a grip on that it would be a much better experience Response from developer “ "Dear players: I'm very sorry to give you a bad experience. If you find any illegal remarks in the game, you can click the dialogue to report it, or contact us directly in the game (click the billboard next to the base, click customer service help), provide a detailed description of the problem, and related screenshots. We will verify the reported person, and once found to have violated the rules, we will impose penalties. Of course, our game rules are fair to every player. Thank you for your comment and have a nice game."The issue is that we (meaning numerous players) have reported such behavior yet it still goes without consequences. If I could post images of the hate and disgraceful messages we receive i would. If you do not address this then maybe we should goto Apple directly to remove the app all together

Updating my initial review and giving it 4 stars. I was able to find a decent alliance that is not run by scammers and so far the game is fun. I’m not paying a dime for it and have leveled my Castle to 16, which isn’t bad for the time I’ve been here. The terminology and event play is still confusing since I’m new, but there are YouTubers out there that have instructional videos. WATCH out for the scams, find an alliance run by average gamers, and you will do fine. Original Review: 2/5 stars. This game looks fun at first, but it’s really just a money grab and rife with scammers. You get rushed into joining an alliance because you can’t survive solo, and then the “alliance leaders” all follow the same script: “Are you a bot? Where are you from? Do you have Telegram/WhatsApp/Discord?” They try to push you off the game into outside chats, where the pressure starts to download other apps or spend money. Some try crypto scamming. They tried it with me. If you don’t play along, you’ll get kicked and raided.Bottom line: the game is designed to make you spend and funnels you toward scammy groups. Not worth the time unless you like being pressured to pay or join shady side apps.
