This game is awesome.
Sat Sep 16 2023 FamousMeepers123I really, really love this game. The idea of time is very interesting to me, and this game delivers. It also has elements from The Matrix in it, with all of the good parts of the rest of the series. The combat system is very fun, too, since depending on how much you plan and strategize, you can win with much worse characters than the enemy, or the enemy can pull one over on you. The quests give you plenty to do as well. The only thing I would change is to make the RNG better for players to get prompts from NPCs to complete the quests. I’ve failed more than 2 events simply because I had no idea if the prompt was new for this, or was an average one.
Wildly fun but possible glitch
Mon Sep 30 2024 OligriffinI have thoroughly enjoyed playing through this game and I still have so much to go! I play it ever night before bed and always end up staying up at too late as a result haha.
That being said, I’ve grown pretty frustrated with what I believe is a pretty serious glitch. When prompted to “travel anywhere” (as in the game does not have a choice of traveling to a specific region) if you select that option, the screen becomes a blank cream color permanently, no longer giving you any choices whatsoever. The only fix I’ve found is deleting the app, redownloading it, and then having to play through the entire game again. This is my second time downloading the game as a result of this glitch and it just happened again. I’m fairly upset.
All in all, the game is incredibly fun. I love all the reigns games.
mildly enraging but fascinating and engaging
Thu Dec 15 2022 Weary Small Travellerits a difficult learning curve to figure out that swiping slowly shows which stats will be changed, and you dont even know if the changes are negative or positive, you also dont know right away which group the symbols are even representing or what theyre about right away- i keep getting stuck in situations where im too popular with all groups and eventually get forced in a bottleneck situation where ill just be killed for being too pleasant, the scholars give me a gifted bow and you shoot yourself with it everytime despite remembering what happened, as if your character wouldnt know better- or the soldiers try to celebrate and a random collapse of boulders occurs every single time. like, if five of the last rulers died the same way, wouldnt they prevent that? wouldnt the main character know not to get squished or shot?
it just angers me allot but ive settled for just letting it happen and gradually claiming every region which is going smoothly as ive accepted sometimes only lasting a few cards, although id prefer to be able to stay alive for continuity on things like adopting the monkeys and saving them or having a relationship and so on, the card fights are pretty fun and easy though, the computer im fighting just seems to spazz around abit allot
If you play games like Until Dawn or The Sims...
Tue Jun 25 2024 🫡SkyDVI am all about my interaction with a game. Can you immerse me? And there's so many ways to do that..
This game achieves that by making every single choice you make matter. Drastically.
From choosing factions and helping the people to starting wars and taking new land Reigns has you both on the commoners roads and in King/Queens chair.
THE ONLY THING I'd just like to mentions to the creators is that a note section would be nice. I'm an aloof person and I read these names and attributes to these future characters as ways to help influence my future but i don't have a place to toggle to for note keeping. Yes... I could open another app... but I love immersion, like I said, just thought I'd mention it.
Pretty good!
Wed Jan 08 2025 L1@mmmI feel like they really honed in the formula in this iteration.
The RNG’s probably the best in this version. storyline’s feel fleshed out, but doesn’t feel repetitive or forced like it does in her Majesty. The stats move just right, it doesn’t feel too slow or too drastic
I mostly really appreciate the expanded politics, negotiations, allyships, war, conquering land.
It’s interesting to meet different kinds of people from all over the map, and it’s a lot more rewarding to work your way up to royalty, rather than having it just handed to you. Pushing forward with my agendas keeps me coming back
My only real complaint is the synaptic time-travelling or whatever storyline.
To be blunt, I think it’s kind of dumb. Im sorry
I don’t understand how we can’t suspend our disbelief that we’re just some person in ancient China, yet time travel is supposed to make more sense.
It’s annoying, unnecessary, and it could’ve easily done without it. Luckily it’s easy to skim over
But! Overall, I like this game. I appreciate how every decision you make matters. It’s fun, the art is gorgeous. I like it
Good Game, Could be Great
Thu Jan 26 2023 jmag51I enjoy the game, but I feel like it isn’t balanced well. Most of the decisions seem to do nothing but maintain your rule and are inconsequential. These are mainly repeats you have seen a hundred times and nothing important happens no matter what you choose. It is rare that you come across a decision that actually moves the story forward, and when you mess those up (which is very easy because it is a 50/50 guess most of the time) you know you’ll have to wait another fifteen minutes of pointless swiping until you come across it again (if ever).
Basically, very little sense of progress. The game has a great base though, it just needs to be perfected.
Needs a little work.
Wed Dec 27 2023 K0m0d0193792I’m a big fan of the Reign series’ mechanics, this one included. However, the computer difficulty needs to be increased for battles. It was hardly a challenge. There were so many quests that I also couldn’t complete because the game never prompted me to return to the original places where the events would continue. It would help to include a travel option so players can choose where to go. If that is already a mechanic in the game then I must have failed to see where to do that. Overall it was a fun little game but I won’t return to this particular one anytime soon
What an awful game yet great idea
Wed Apr 12 2023 2&:"(9/$9-9,!:'sThe concept of this game is amazing. It’s so fun making decisions that lead to certain outcomes but there is something that ruins this game as a whole. The fact that i max out a stat in the game and get punished by being killed is ridiculous. For example I maxed out virtue and the game killed me off. If the stat is empty then it would be understandable if I was killed. It’s like the people who made this game tried to put an interesting and fun twist in it but they failed miserably and it ended up backfiring on them. If you fixed dying because of a maxed out stat then me and a lot of other players would be happy with this game. If it was fixed it would for sure be 5 stars but for now the game isn’t enjoyable. Please fix this.
Really really fun when it works
Thu Jul 17 2025 M 1sThis game is very fun and addictive and has good mechanics despite sometimes scoring cards in terms of you getting closer to dying or not being weird, but its bugs have made me delete and redownload the game twice.
The first being the traveling bug which another reviewer spoke about which wouldn’t let you play the game after you picked the travel option.
The second was when a key character who died kept interacting with us and the emperor who resigned kept getting gifts. I also stopped being able to complete quests and got stuck doing the same battle.
A Chinese Culture Story Adventure
Tue Aug 20 2024 iDittoheadImmerse yourself in Chinese culture and history in an interesting story based game for NETFLIX members. The biggest flaw in the game is the multiplayer function which never seems to have enough players to get a real time game match. The story takes many tries and numerous deaths to complete. Although it can get repetitive, there is enough variance to warrant a play though. Get this game if you are a NETFLIX member with an interest in history or Chinese culture.
