  • Great visuals, but game is too complex

    The graphics look good, other than some of the ant animation, because there are only 8 angles animated for the ants, making the movement look choppy at times. On a good note the spring animations, for example, look amazing and match the rest of the graphics. I also think this game would be so much more fun if there were less mechanics to the game. A simpler version of this game would be much more enjoyable for players, and it would make the tutorial simpler and make the game overall easier to understand. There are too many buttons on the main interface as well. Which sometimes causes me to accidentally press a button when I am trying to move around.

  • Some major flaws as you progress that will make you quit

    After about a few weeks of playing, you will soon notice every upgrade will cost you millions and millions of resources. And there are 6 different types of resources you have to gather. Which is so bull. Each time you send your troops out to hunt animals to get the resources, it takes 3-5minutes per way, that’s 6-10 minutes round trip and you will get 100k of a particular resource. But you need 1.5 million of it. That’s 15times you have to repeat this. And your upgrade needs 5 different kinds of resource. So you have to sit there and wait for your slow ants to crawl each time. Trust me, you will definitely rage quit after a couple weeks, don’t waste your time. Or you can spend money and do none of the above. I guess that’s the whole point of the game. Spend money!

  • Needs Work

    The game is fun. However, it is over developed. Very busy game. The outcome of Winning an Attack or Defending from your enemy seems random at times and with so many variables, it is hard for the player to calculate if they will win or not. New events like the island design puts some in an advantage. Not equal at the start of the event. Needs new equal map. There are bullies like any war game. But the devs did make sure that you have the advantage of protecting what you have from them. Downside is that there are only 3 days shields, so good luck if you're going on vacation or called away on a business trip. Lol needs to add at least a 7 day shield. The game is becoming unbalanced with all the new ants and insect stuff the Devs have us buy. My 2 cents “Just because it’s an idea, doesn’t make it a good one” I’ve played many war games over the years, this one needs work but could have potential.

  • Ads do not represent gameplay

    In a perfect world the marketing budget would of been spent on gameplay instead and this could of been something decent, however this unfortunately is a the game would prefer to put effort in misleading ads and botted reviews instead of making something enjoyable for the users, can’t wait for the automated developer response with a link to an email account that they ignore 👍

  • Complicated

    So IN MY opinion. Mine I said so all of the people who like this game don’t get mad at me. Anyways, when you start off in the game I found it a little bit complicated but as I went on it got slightly easier. Honestly though I’m giving it a 3 star rating since I don’t understand how suddenly you get all these creatures and things in your den. I want more outside parts given to it because being in your hole/whatever you want to call it can be a little boring?

  • P2W, Racist servers, and egotistical server admins

    Migrated from one server that began to have higher p2w alliances controlling, unfortunately landed in a new server that was a different language all together, translation is terrible for many words and if you don’t spend money you will quickly be lost then losing interest as your ant hill will be hit over and over by the higher lvl 25 ant hills… went to zone chat trying to find peace, all I got was bullying abuse and racist remarks then when I began to talk back to some I was told that one of the female profiles was actually an admin/ Moderator on the server and that she would have my account banned for speaking out. I’ve been contacted by fairy support and my account has been muted while the alliance that bullied and kept hitting my hill all still play on with no repercussions….. stay away from spending your money and I don’t suggest downloading the game save your frustrations….. I wish I did… terrible Chinese game.

  • Pay To Win Have A Massive Advantage In The Game

    I enjoyed my first month playing the game, it was fun. But after that the ugliness of of the game shows it self and here are some of the problems:
    1) Pay to win player has a massive advantage.
    - Many people who played this game have quit due to being bullied by the pay to win player and wasn’t able to fight back due to the power differences.

    2) Pay-to-win player can buy a 7 stars Special-Event-Insect at an earlier stage that gave them massive advantages over everyone else. Many players in my alliance have quit the game because they are not big spenders like the Pay-To-Win players.

    3) The special event was too short for any Free-to-play to earn to actual earn the powerful reward; such as a rank 7 Special Event Insect.

    4) Ornament upgrades components can only be pay with money and the ornaments upgrade provided useful boost to player.

    5) The game crash too often.

    The solution:
    1) Please extend the duration of the event so that it’s possible for the free to play people obtain the powerful special reward through game play.

    2) Remove powerful special event reward so that way only resources can obtained as a reward.

    3) Make the ornament upgrade components available through free game play.

    4) Please find a way to fix the crashes.

    Thank you.

  • An awesome game but needs a few tweaks

    I love how you can have insects to fight along your side or help out at the hill, the things you can research to help your hill grow, the events are really cool and help you grow a lot, and I love that it does not take a lot of time to increase your power and your things, and how you can decorate your hill but one thing that I hate about the game is how the gifts you can claim all for the normal gifts at one time but when you have like 125 rare gifts you have to click everyone at a time and I just wish that they could add a button to claim all rare gifts so it does not take forever and please if you are reading this game creators can you please see if you can add this. But that’s about all and I could say a lot more cool things about this game but there is so many and it would take me about a year but that gift thing is the only thing that bothers me.

  • Great game, a few issues

    This game is pretty fun. As one review mentioned, it is like coc and ff, but ants. You can make new friends and grow as a player if you find the right people. My issue is that it’s clearly made to be pay to win once you get to higher up levels. I’m a q22 and it takes forever to get rss for many builds and depots. I know it’s possible to go the free to play route but if you’re in a bad server with whales, like I used to be before migration, this can make the game much less fun. However, we migrated to a new alliance that is more accepting of f2p and p2w alike, as long as you contribute to svs. Another issue is how the game will crash at the most inconvenient times, like when I’m writing a message or I’m retrieving my gatherers. One last note, honestly the part that confuses me most, is the censor in chat. The word “something” gets censored because it just happens to have the word “meth” in between it, the words “is expecting” get censored because the word “s ex” is detected between the two combined, and many other examples similar to that make it hard for players to chat with each other, alliances to communicate, and even for the current king to send important mail without confusion.

  • And AMZING Game/ not a bot

    This game is probably the best game I’ve ever got in the App Store. It has everything! War, peace, friendly people, evil psycho paths, lots of different things you can do, and a lot more! One suggestion that I have is have more classes. I recently watched a video about ant species and the one that really caught my eye was the weaver ants and their super big colonies in the tree tops. This might be a little much to ask for but could unlucky possibly add trees and tree colonies you can choose from. This could add a whole new style that you play by. Even if you don’t change
    anything this is super great. Definitely worth 5 stars!
