Castles
Mon Feb 03 2025 Rts5105This 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.
Money Pit
Sat Mar 12 2022 foxtrotnegativesamYou 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
No regulation
Sat Apr 16 2022 bade perienceThe 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
Good game
Sat Feb 11 2023 kwosidbwlqpsjdhwvqcgxhckdwI like this game, I’ve played lots of games with the same concept, and this one definitely stands out. I just have one problem, I can’t play, I got to castle level 8 and the next day when I logged in, something popped up saying “building the farm definitely increased the power of faith.” Or something like that, then one of the hands that tells you what to tap popped up, so I pressed it, then it told me to press “build royal charcoal factory” but you can’t press anything after that, and also you have to pay for it. I tried going out of the game and back in but same thing, I tried to move my screen but nothing happened, I even tried restarting my phone, but same thing. I hope this can be fixed I would really like to keep playing this game.
Thanks for the help devs, if anyone else gets the problem I mentioned, I deleted the game then downloaded it again.
After playing the game more, I think they should add irrigation into the game, like in the adds, you can get the water from a water fall, or a bigger pool of water than you get ale from.
Sad to say
Thu Jun 29 2023 Kg907This game is addicting 😝 but a strong but! You cannot do anything against the big time spenders😭 I’ve been playing for 11 months now. I use to be a very big spender but no more. I’m done with this game for now. Yes you make great friendship along the way from all over the world but… at what cost? Thousands of money just to be caught up? When I die they won’t be at my funeral because they won’t know who I am…this internet/international “friend” … will not attend your funeral, months unless you met them in person. Yes I’ve talked personally with couple friends within this game but mainly to only talk about the game.
You can make friendship here for real… but at what costs? Developer costs? As long as you keep spending? I lost hope in this game for real. As previous reviewers said, you need money to play. Devs do NOT CARE as long as you keep paying… calculating what I spent to get to my castle and hero strength… spent over 5k USA money… ridiculous to compare what Asia spent. There is a money gap between china and USA…. If you’re from USA or equivalent of spending as us, I advise you to stop. Just wasting money
Was fun but developers destroy what you work for
Sat May 28 2022 MikeSilviaThe game was extremely enjoyable and fun until this weekend. You’ll put in hours and hours of time building your castle and characters. You’ll even spend money in game. Then this weekend the developers decided it would be a good idea to put a “State Vs. State” game play which I was excited for. I spent a month building up my castle with what I thought was a strong alliance. The other state invaded and destroyed the state I was in in about 1 hour. No chance. Days of resources lost and 30 days of building solders gone. Here’s how.
Apprantly, some people spend thousands of dollars on this game. I had a pretty powerful castle and power rank of nearly 2 million. Out of hundreds of players in my state, the top player had 15 million power. The the developers matched us with a state that had a dozen players with 32 million power. There is no chance to survive. They have dragons that knock down your shields and then they rob you of dozens of hours of work in resources and wipe out a month of armed forces that you built up. Clearly the developers threw us to the wolves and erased dozens of hours of hard work for 100s of players. After a month of fun and some money spent I’ll be uninstalling the game I came to enjoy. If you are a new player, avoid the game - you’ll just be disappointed in the end.
Pay to win much?
Sun Nov 01 2020 reederboardI understand a free game having some micro transactions... but this game goes well and beyond. You need heroes? Buy them, you need resources, buy them, you need speed ups, buy them, you need crafting equipment that takes months and months to acquire? Buy them, your stamina is gone on your troops? Buy some more. Your troops died? Buy a money only item that increases your weekly revive from 30% to 100%. You need courage medals for research? Buy them. Oh here is an event for rewards for how more money you spend. Did I mention you get gems with all purchases? Oh here’s more speed ups and resources. Oh base rewards? Well don’t plan on getting those because the people who are spending money will completely make you useless. What’s that you want a 50% building time buff.... buy that. Oh vip shop unlocks at castle 20.... but you need to have spend 100 just to unlock it, and 25 monthly to keep using it..... but you can build it though. Not only is this a copy of lss which is entirely just different names and pictures. But some countries have a different money currency. So what will cost you 1000s to do, will cost them hundreds instead. Don’t even bother. You want to be a boss and spend $10,000 on this game it’s for you. You want to spend $100 don’t even bother. You and all the free to play people will just be fed on and used to increase the money spenders.
Horrible help support
Sat Apr 22 2023 Ihar85Any game is supposed to bring pleasure, but not this one. It's made only to take money from you, and even if you pay, you won't enjoy the game anyway. Developers don't care about players at all, although they bring them a lot of money. The development in the game depends on the money invested in it, but in different regions prices vary significantly, this is normal, so it should be, but the problem is that the game is not divided regionally. There were about 300 people from different countries in our state, all of them played at the same level and everyone had fun. But three players came and just in a month destroyed what 300 people were building for 8 months, spending a lot of money and time. These players came from the Asian region, where prices differ significantly, respectively, and the level of their strength differs significantly and nothing can be opposed to them. Game restrictions allow them to do it, and nobody care that’s totally not fair. Players with different prices can’t mix in the same game zone. 100 people from the state have already abandoned the game, thereby losing all the money that was invested. And the rest will quit the game in the near future. A lot of requests were sent to developers, help zero. They just don't care about 300 of their customers who brought them a constant income.
Minus zero stars!! Shame on you!!!
Tue Jan 30 2024 ceeceeleaI just downloaded your game, looks like fun. While I was waiting for it to download, I saw another ad for your game. After watching your ad, I immediately deleted your game and I’m leaving a review for others to see. Your ad disgusted me beyond words. What kind of people are you?!!! You have no respect for others, that’s clear. You people have a platform to reach the young and teach them to respect themselves and others. You could teach them to be compassionate, caring, responsible, kind and so many other positive traits. You could teach them to be strong and self confident, about bullying and boundaries. You have such a great opportunity to do the right thing for our youth, and you not only throw away the opportunity but you teach them how to disrespect others!!! What disgusting people you are! All of connected to this game.
I play a lot of games, I’m disabled and home most of the time, so I play games to fill up my day and even have fun playing many of the games. I was shocked to see your ad, and I’m going talk about it on all my platforms. Shame on you!! Any of you that have children should be so ashamed, but all of you that work in this company share the responsibility and consequences that come from teaching children disrespect and hatred.
Shame on every one of you!!!
They will take your money and delete your accounts..
Fri Sep 25 2020 BrettJ1986I started playing in a state with several of my friends. I have spent more money than I care to admit and I and ready to call the credit company and demand a refund. Chinese markets pay a small fraction of the price for the same packages in their store, they have a huge advantage. The game has already taken over 2 dozen accounts from good friends of mine for “suspicion of using a bot” they are all real people I assure you, people that have now lost accounts. Some of which were paid for. I will not spend another dollar in this game. I will be looking into a refund. They promise a fair and balanced playin environment. It’s anything but that. If I can’t play on the map with my friends what is the point of my investment?? And I can’t move my account now? The developers need start with fixing the prices to make them equal for every country. They can also add the odds of getting certain items to their paid packages. They do not show odds and 9/10 you will not get the hero’s you paid for if you buy super recruit tickets. I would greatly appreciate a few hundred tickets and a couple hundred thousand gems. With the amount I have paid into this they could at least do that. They have already driven my friends out of the game. They are about to lose everyone in state 204z
