### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2024-03-09*

Keep up the great work, can’t wait to see more new content later.

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2023-10-06*

One of the best games ✌️

### 5/5 — Addicting!

*2023-04-03*

I’m not even much of a gamer, but this game has me hooked. Everything about it is professional and engaging. The fact that they also have blockchain enabled in-game assets is such a cool bonus; and it’s great how that feature is not pushed or forced but is just an option! Player owned economies are the future and this game showcases that perfectly. Cudos to the devs!!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your amazing review! We are delighted to hear that you are enjoying the game and appreciate your support.

### 4/5 — great concept

*2021-11-18, version 1.5.3*

great game, fun, but the progression is very slow. the materials needed for almost any research is insane and the low amount of attacks really kills the mood and makes the game play limited

### 1/5 — App won’t load

*2021-11-18, version 1.5.3*

Ever since the new update I can’t get the app the start. It gets to 70% and then just sits there. Please fix this. I downloaded the update hoping it would fix this and it still only gets to 70%.

**Developer response:** We are sorry you’ve experienced this issue! We would advise going into your phone settings and deleting the game and its cached data, and then attempting to reinstall and restore your save from the icloud. Please email us at arkrivals@topebox.com if you require further assistance.

### 3/5 — Pls fix this

*2021-10-19, version 1.3.5*

I waited so long for this game to be on iPhone and now that I don’t it here I can’t attack without it reconnecting and not only using up one attack but not giving me the recourses too. PLEASE fix this

### 2/5 — Won’t get me past the first practice base

*2021-10-17, version 1.3.5*

It say error every time I defeat it

### 5/5 — Suggestion!

*2021-07-25, version 1.3.5*

I’d love to play this game for hours on end… but the limit for raiding others just kills the mood. I suggest you try to make it less limited or take it off permanently, game would be tolerable to play for long-term. Overall, great game concept!!

### 5/5 — Epic!

*2021-07-22, version 1.3.5*

For so long, we don’t have a game at this quality! Highly recommended!

### 4/5 — The shield doesn’t work.

*2021-05-24, version 1.3.1*

I’d give 5 stars if the shield actually worked for me. I can be attacked when it’s up but I can’t attack when it is up.

**Developer response:** Hi！

Sorry for the bad gaming experience, I can't imagine the trouble you have encountered....Can you tell our more details or send an Email to arkrivals@topebox.com.

Thanks, 
have a nice day!
