Good things are that the alliances have good people in them and that alliances give protection. The game can be a long haul for players that want to stick it out. Thanks for making this and keep up the good work! ### 5/5 — The game mantanice in e for a whole week can’t enjoy about to delete *2022-11-02, version 1.0.98* I waited for 3 days now non why no game work ### 5/5 — Fun and interesting. *2022-10-21, version 1.0.98* Takes a minute to get a feel for the game, but get more interesting as you go. ### 5/5 — Login problem *2022-09-30, version 1.0.98* I tried restarting the account and I couldn’t load in the login, fix this ASAP 😡 ### 4/5 — Loads Too Long!! *2022-06-02, version 1.0.94* Hello!!! I Just Wanted To Say That Every Time A Download The Game, It Loads Too Long! When This Is Going To Take Me Into Battle? Please! You Need To Fix That!!! When I Get To 100% In The Load Screen, It Keeps Loading! Would You Fix That? I Wish When I Get Into The Game, When It Gets To 100% Percent In The Load Screen, It Will Take Me Into The Town, That’s All Folks!!! 🇵🇲😁 ### 3/5 — Loading(Takes Forever) *2022-05-18, version 1.0.94* Game doesn’t even load anymore.. it’s starts at 80% for some reason and when it gets to 100% game doesn’t start(music continues in background) I just Deleted it cause It’s annoying and probably not gonna install again.. screwed me good! Thanks.. ### 1/5 — Won’t load *2022-05-09, version 1.0.94* App won’t load, bar hits 100% and freezes. Not my device or Wi-Fi issue, I have tried closing the app, uninstalling the app, restarting my phone, toggling Wi-Fi, checking updates, assuming a potential server update (been stuck for over 24 hrs, typical server update is 1-2 hrs) and updating my iOS. At this point I’m assuming the game has a major bug that’s causing it to freeze on loading. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2022-01-06, version 1.0.92* Do not, I repeat do not download. I played for 2 yrs only to get locked out for no reason. They do this over and over. They have no support either. What a waste of time and money. Never again will I get suckered by these people. Trust me save yourself a huge headache. Leave this game and this developer alone. ### 1/5 — Horrible support and way overpriced. *2021-04-22, version 1.0.78* This game is terrible Technical support and zero regards for its patrons. In order to compete at ANY level (even minor tasks)you will spend big bucks. They have multiple glitches where you may not be able to log in and lose all you have invested, and will be expected to start over with zero recompense. Big waste of time and money, cheap boats will cost you but if you want a good boat you are talking hundreds of dollars that you will lose completely at THEIR first glitch. At which point it will be YOUR fault. Huge waste of time and money. ### 1/5 — Age of sail *2020-12-11, version 1.0.70* This game is geared around European time ... go to bed at night wake up destroyed. To many battles per week. You can spend your money. Try build up and have it taken away by big players. No protection in any alliance. They sit back watch you get destroyed ..I like the game. But not worth spending a fortune on. Or be on line 24 hours a day !!!! Good luck to all who play ## Frequently asked questions about Age of Sail ### What is Age of Sail: Navy & Pirates about?
