Dragon story

I like dragon story, but all my islands are full of habitats and full of dragons.
I’m not spending gold to open up new island, so no reason to spend gold to buy or win dragons when I have no place to put them.
There are too many commercials and you keep getting kicked out. I get mad when it keeps kicking me out, so I won’t play!
I hate that i get kicked out all the time when in different touraments and you don’t get credit for things you have completed. It’s not worth spending gold cause most time you won’t get the prize .

Impossible

I never get to finish the goals because the time frame is too short. It’s not as if you can spend some gold to catch up (which I have) Got me no where. I would have to spend hundreds of dollars to complete tasks. If you just want to breed and feed, it’s ok, but anything else about the game is totally frustrating and unattainable. Other games give free gold occasionally. You don’t get a thing with this game. If you have 3 good neighbours who gift every day, you can earn a whole 3 x gold a day. Should be increased to 5 neighbours if you’re going to be so tight. Give a little PLEASE... also the constant pop ups and ads are a put off, especially if you are just catching up in a short time you have. I am losing interest as many long term players do because of all the above. 😡😡

Long time player

I’ve had this game for about 8 years maybe longer. It’s a lot of fun but requires hours of playing per week to really compete. If I didn’t have the game before they started tournaments I wouldn’t have enough resources to be competitive without spending money.
Also, when the game was new they didn’t have ads. Now there are so many ads all the time and they pop up while you play. You click on them accidentally. I’m considering deleting the game because of the ads.
If they wouldn’t have ruined the game with ads I would’ve given it 5 stars easy!

****edit.... a lot of people are asking about gold. Spend the real money to buy enough gold to purchase a gold bearing dragon when it’s on sale. Save that gold till you have enough to get another gold bearing dragon. I did this and now have 12 gold dragons I think. They give me 65 gold a day total. It takes a lot of time but it’s really the only way.

Can be frustrating but addictive

I’ve been playing this game for years. I love it, the only downside is the time scale they want tournaments and adventures done. Also the amount of gold you need to buy dragons are over priced. Island goals are also sometimes impossible to do. Otherwise, just raising dragons etc is quite exciting and satisfying when raised. Could have a revamp of decorations as they’ve had the same things for years

Expanding Restraint - 50+ days or use gold!!

It’s becoming quite frustrating playing this game of late. I have been playing dragon story since it was released and have enjoyed working through each challenge to win new dragons and build up my island, but I’m finding it impossible to expand without using gold to do so. If you not use gold it takes 50+ days to expand by 1 habitat - what a joke!!
Come on Dragon Story team do something to help speed up the process of long term players!!
It shouldn’t take 2 months expand....😡

I lov dis game but

1st time I got this game I had almost all the dragons but then it would constantly never let me in the game and I was forced to delete it, I was so sad and I was like 5. I found the game again and decided to try again but it started to lag really badly so I got rid of some on my most precious photos of my bro when he was little and it still wasn’t enuff and I gave up coz it was taking up space and constantly lagged and I sat there for ages getting rid of all this stuff that popped up in my face, I’m now 11 and yet I still tried but now I’ve given up. To all the ppl who went threw this it’s a beautiful game but please fix the lag and make the tournaments longer coz they go so quickly and maybe I’ll finish it next time anyway good luck to everyone who tries!

Like the game

I am sorry to say that I am not as pleased with it as I was when I first started to play. Now that my level is up above 99 I can not by habitats as I did before they are frozen and it takes about 2 or 3 months before I can get to by any and then you only give me enough time to by maybe 1 or 2. I also do not like the fact that most of the dragons and habitats have to be purchased with gold and it is so hard to get enough gold to do that. I have plenty of money so you should let us buy the things with money or find a better way for us to get more gold.

The newest thing now is that all the dragons can only be bought with gold. What u are trying to do is make it so that we need to buy the gold. I am so fed up I am ready to quit.

Problems - Not Getting Better

There are a lot of problems with this. I’ve been playing for many years now, first starting on this game and then the Spring themed one, before I returned back to the original Dragon Story.
Compared to then and now a lot of things have changed, and not in a good way.

For one, there are continuous, non skippable ads that pause you and have you read through small side missions. I’m meaning that if you aren’t quick to tap at something then you’ll be bombarded with at least five ads.

Another problem is the fact that each time you do a ‘major’ thing such as hatching an egg, completing or sending a dragon to evolve, breeding or finish breeding a pair of dragons an ad will appear. This never happened in the previous games those many years ago, especially with the continuous ones.

Another problem would be the gold, you never get gold. After getting back onto Dragon Story I accidentally used mine to finish a farm grow it’s crops. Ever since then I never have been given the opportunity of gold. Not only do you need gold to get special habitats but also special dragons.

Another problem would be when visiting another person’s island, a continuous glitch would happen where all the trees and shrubbery are in the way of the dragon’s habitats. Not too sure if it’s me or for everyone else as well

These are only a few problems I can plainly identify, I ask of you to please fix these problems, make it easier for us to get and use gold without paying a fortune, and tone down on the ads

Fun with a couple flaws

The good news is, it's rather fun and addictive with a lot of cool dragons and habitats, plus competitive events and other niches like battles that make the game fun to learn about and let you win cute special dragons. The bad news is, you will never have all or even most of the the dragon types, and that's my big disappoinment. Many rare ones can't be bred. They must be either crafted for an exorbitant amount of dragon essence (which takes 8 hours a piece to get) or bought for an average of 400 "gold," which is actual money, bit currency you earn in the game. 500 costs $20, so figure you are paying $20 for some of the dragons, with the rarest ones costing almost $200 (4,000 gold) - ridiculous! The other activities, such as breeding, habitat building, hatching eggs, also take several hours each on average.

The gold unfortunately isn't freely given or won during the game, but a little patience with watching ads and spinning the wheel during special events gets you generous rewards in food and game currency.

Bottom line is, if you're willing to treat it as an idle game, you like collecting cute dragons, and you're settled that you can't get all thousand varieties, it's a good game for you!

Greedy Greedy

What used to be a challenging yet fun game has become a money grabbing repetitive series of events riddled with glitches including constant rollbacks that often cost battle victories and event prizes. It appears the Game Owners prime consideration is making money. Of course players should pay something for the game experience however it has now become almost impossible to successfully participate in events without paying real money. Unfortunately there is little evidence that player fees are being poured back into the game as many many players have no room to expand and so are stuck in limbo. Worst of all is the fact that no one seems to care. Comments, questions and concerns raised in player forums go unanswered and barely an event is launched without some sort of glitch happening. As no support is available over weekends, by the time the glitch is fixed players are often too far behind to finish. We all wish the game we knew and loved would be restored to us.
