Когда только появилась на айфоне, помню, были проблемы с оптимизацией, но сейчас всё работает замечательно. Из всех Age, эта нравится больше всего. ### 5/5 — Reseña *2026-08-10, version 1.032* Creo que es un buen juego personalmente me entretiene mucho debido a la cantidad de unidades edificios y facciones sin embargo algo que si puede llegar a molestarme sería lo lenta que es la forma para obtener gemas sinceramente creo que con todo lo añadido al juego y el hecho de que existen las mismas formas de ganar gemas de hace años es muy difícil y tardado llegar a conseguir mínimo la mitad de cosas de una sola facción considero que deberían encontrar un modo de dar más gemas para que no sea tan cansado y tardado desbloquear más unidades o en todo caso bajar el precio del desbloqueo de las gemas yo creo que bastaría depende el costo original pero si bajarán 1 o 2 incluso 3 gemas en algunos más caros podrían hacer que todo el juego fuera más aprovechable ya que un jugador casual jamás llegará a desbloquear ni siquiera las unidades nuevas que llegan al juego ### 5/5 — My favorite game *2026-07-24, version 1.032* I play this before it came on apple, fun strategy game. ### 5/5 — Play this *2026-05-29, version 1.032* This is an awesome game. I had played the early version on my mobile phone and loved it. I love the strategy and the development of characters. It causes you to think before you move. The in depth information of each character is extremely helpful and important which helps you to know how to use them properly. If you like commanding and developing huge armies. This is the game for you. ### 5/5 — Великолепно *2026-04-28, version 1.032* За 10 лет, которые я тратил на игры в телефоне, это просто лучшая и моя любимая. Невероятное разнообразие, очень большая ветка прокачки. Единственный минус очень много нужно кристаллов, а вариантов их добыть очень мало(( Я бы их купил с радостью, но живу в России(( ### 5/5 — Muito bom *2026-04-08, version 1.031* Viciado ### 5/5 — Finally got released on iOS *2026-03-30, version 1.031* I played this game a lot when I was younger but I had an Andries and it was exclusive to the play store, when I got an iPhone, I saw it was not able to be downloaded and I got upset about it. All around a great game though ### 4/5 — Great, but could improve *2026-01-17, version 1.029* Firstly, I think there should be the option to clear all your upgrades and be refunded at least 90% of your gems. If you come back to the game with all your upgrades in your old favourite race and you have a new favourite race, you can’t transfer those upgrades so you basically can’t use your past progress. Secondly, the organization of the upgrade section should be better. Right now it’s just organized by sections corresponding to a race, but sections from the same race are still separate from each other. I suggest organizing it by race, and in a race section there are units, buildings, and technology sections. Since there are way more units than buildings and technology, you could also have categories for melee, ranged, and magical. ### 4/5 — underrated *2025-12-28, version 1.029* Pretty dang good so far ### 5/5 — Overall a great game! *2025-12-23, version 1.029* It’s a fantastic game, love genuinely every aspect of the game, the wide variety of units, lore, upgrades, being able to build is amazing, my only legit issue is that trying to use NPC’s in a multiplayer setting is a pain, and for each multiplayer turn having to exit that match and be put back to the lobby, butttt I understand it to an extent. I genuinely love the game and will be playing more, plus the font sizes are a-okay ## Frequently asked questions about Age of Fantasy ### What kind of game is Age of Fantasy?
