This game is not a pay to win. The further you progress, the more time you will need to put in to stay on top. If you keep it up everyday and spend more time everyday, you will be rewarded, aside from that, So I forget how long I’ve had this game but I’ve played it at least 5-10 minutes or more almost everyday since I got it. If you’re into rts and Age of Empires, this game is really good. I give it four stars for a few reasons. The main one is that after all this time, I had no idea I wasn’t allowed to change states. I’m stuck in 313 and my brother is in 341. I introduced him to this game and within half the time I’ve been playing, he’s surpassed me. It took awhile for us to acquire advanced teleports, but it’s been so long, we can’t team up together. It’d be nice if I could bring my camp next to his and send him reinforcements and vice versa. Maybe like one state teleport per player? Idk it’s disappointing tho. Aside from that it’s a great game that you can be rewarded on based how in depth you get. I typically research and upgrade things and that’s about it, but if you do more you will be rewarded. Please let me change my state just once! Overall, great game.
I got this game a week or two ago and it’s been keeping me mildly entertained since then. First, the trailers are very misleading. Your buildings don’t change in appearance unless you get the one item that makes them look a little better for a bunch of irl money. Second, this is a war game very much like GoT: Conquest, which means that unless you throw a bunch of money at this game, you’ll likely end up being attacked over and over from folks who are P2W. These weren’t the reason for the negative review. This morning I logged on and started my normal thing to make more troops, upgrade my buildings and gather resources. As I am looking at the world map to find a food node that I can gather, a notification popped up that My account has been suspended. In this notification box, there was a space for the a reason...and it was blank. The only other options I had were to exit the game or start a new one. I had just started my upgrade to Base level 11 when this happened. A never used any third party programs out anything as I strictly played on my mobile device. I have contacted their tech support but have yet to receive any reply. This is extremely shady business. I would not use another app from this developer and I suggest to others they do the same. They seem to be only interested in the revenue. The entire time I only purchased one pack that was 5 bucks. Maybe I didn’t purchase enough packs and that’s why I was banned.
Let me just start by saying when I first downloaded this game I was impressed with the amount of stuff you could build and do but the pvp in this game is weak and beyond frustrating you can work hard to collect resources then close the game and attend real life (just as an example) then return to find that one guy attacked your base 8 time and another attacked your base 7 times your army is in the hospital and you have to heal them for them to even be of any use but of course that can sometimes take 30min in itself and while they are healing you get attacked another 8 times etc etc and all the mean while all the resources you collect are now gone and you yet again can’t build anything new because of it leaving you stuck sure they have shield you can put on your base to prevent people from attacking you but those are hard to get unless you spend real money or try to get crystals to buy them with it’s just kinda dumb for a new player to grow when high level players can just spam attack you until you have nothing to build with so take it from a newer player trying to get into the game who is just fed up with the pvp disadvantage you will always be at its not worth the time and effort to play unless something is done about high level people spam attacking you needs to be a cap of how many times in a day you can be spammed and how many times 1 person can spam you as well as a level cap on how high a level is to attack you “PAY to WIN”
First I feel the developers are greedy, ridiculous amount of resources to upgrade so you buy packs. Game is super glitchy for the amount of money that is spent. If you don’t pay big money you will be bullied as this is a pay to play game. Players abuse the refund and get there money back just to pay again and grow bigger nothing is done. When you need to report a bug, developers do not get back to you. For iOS users not very compatible, I tried to report an issue then had to load a picture and was unable to. I get they wanna make money however I feel more money could be made n more people would pay if it was more fair I’m sorry I can spend a few hundred a month I can’t compete with these players who drop 500 get a refund and spend another 500. I’m not spending anymore money as what am I spending money on so I can buy resources and then get constantly attacked by higher paying players to just steal my resources so ultimately I’m spending money to make these players bigger not for myself. I do not recommend this game at all. Also the events if you don’t pay the events are hard to open the boxes the amount of points needed are ridiculously high so again if you pay and are big this game benefits you as you unlock boxes and gets more resources to get bigger. The developers are making it hard for steal everyone is hurting for steal therefore all bases are being attacked and plundered by the huge players to get bigger.
Against my better judgement, I downloaded the game following an ad where it very clearly showed that this was a tower defense game where your city grows into a thriving metropolis. It is decidedly NOT tower defense, and the buildings you start with will not change in appearance whatsoever. I played for a couple weeks anyway; because it was fine. However, I happened to be parked right next to a “neighbor” who either lives on this app or is shelling out a ton of money to buy all the add-ons, and he decided to attack me no fewer than 10 times a day, often several times in a few minutes. My soldiers were killed as quickly as I could build them and I struggled to keep a reasonable amount of resources to expand. I definitely did not have enough to protect myself. My “neighbor” is several levels above me and I stood no chance at defense except to move. Unfortunately it takes an absolute ton of effort to gain 2,000 diamonds (assuming you have better things to spend actual money on), so I couldn’t get around to it. The alliances are largely pointless and not worth the effort because only a couple of the hundred people are ever active, and it’s not often at the same time. Basically if you have a job, boyfriend/girlfriend, kids, or a realization that our time on this earth is finite and you can never get your time back, then this game is not worth your time. Deleted.
Last Shelter is mildly enjoyable through the beginning stages- just enough to keep you gaining interest as you level up and strengthen your army. But the further you progress, the more time you have to spend playing as well as there being an increased need to spend money. Just as I got to the point where I had a well functioning city that produced a lot and was capable of sustaining a rapidly growing army, significantly overmatched opponents who had likely paid a bunch of money to get a special “city transport” ability were able to move their city within a 2 minute attack range and demolish my army and farm my resources. All I was able to do was produce enough food to constantly heal my army before being attacked again and start the process over. I’ve basically hit a stalemate and can’t continue construction in order to grow and ever defend myself or alliance members against them. The whole city transport thing is 100% asinine and makes me want to give the developers my money even less than I did originally. So yeah, unless you have unlimited time and a minimum of $25 you’d like to spend on a simple game on your phone, don’t waste your time. And if you do have those things, just go play Tribal Wars- same concept, better strategy and more straightforward.
Been playing for over a year. The game is lots of fun, but because a next level if you’re a social person. After a while this game becomes more of a hang out social platform than just a game. Beware though, in order to stay safe competitive you have to spend $$$. If you don’t you will be very weak and it’s no fun, unless you never want to fight. Now, you don’t have to spend big (though some), but still will have to some. The reason I gave 4 stars and 5 if that this game isn’t made to reward long time players, on the contrary, the longer you play, the less chances you have to get good heroes for free, all devs wants is for you to spend more and more. I get it, this game is made to make money, but I also believe you should reward players who’ve stuck with the game for a long time. Throw a bone once in a while... don’t be so greedy! UPDATE::: Hahahaha, I just read the dev response to my review. I’ve played this game for 3 years. Never, with any game I saw the level of greed and pettiness exhibited by the developers of this game. Free to play???? Don’t make me laugh. If you want to be at all, any competitive , you have to spend money and I mean A LOT OF MONEY!!! In light of that idiotic, patronizing and outright laughable response from the developer, I’m now changing my review to 1 star. Enjoy.
This game used to be fun. I’ve been playing for a couple of years, almost 3 years. There was a certain pay-to-win element in the beginning, but you could enjoy the game without paying. As I progressed, I found that the game was dominated by those paying SSSSS to advance. I have spent my fair share on this game, well into the 4 digits. But lately, the metrics are getting worse and worse. Our active and fairly advanced alliance has been mostly together since the inception when we all started together. But we are being matched against huge obnoxious, bullying states, that have everything money can buy and don’t allow us to even play. It’s ridiculous. There is no balance to our matches in Doomsday. And the developers seem to have changed the metrics to make it even harder to advance (ie get good heroes, develop parts, etc) so that you need to spend even more $$ to even HOPE to advance, and are almost always let down. Our entire state has been commenting about it, it’s a tangible change. I’m done putting any money into this game until they change the metrics. It’s a shame, this could be a great game, and after 3 years I’m pretty invested in it. I’d be willing to spend a few hundred dollars to guarantee a decent hero, but to spend it and get nothing over and over, that’s a fools errand. STAY AWAY!
