Then you have to download another game to play level 9 for free. I will be buying the game. I mostly play the timed version. You collect the resources (wood, stone, berries) to build the wall. And you have to collect the masks or statues too. ### 3/5 — not formatted for ipad *2020-05-11, version 1.5.9* really fun but have to keep moving the screen around to see the characters and activities. the icons of farmed resources are so large that they cover up important areas. i have other games from this developer without these issues, so this is disappointing. ### 5/5 — Really addictive *2020-04-19, version 1.5.9* I love this game, I must have played it a hundred times. Each level requires you to utilise the builders in different ways to complete the level in time. No adverts, which is a massive plus. I manage to lose myself for hours in this game. I would give it six stars if I could. Absolutely love it. ### 5/5 — Love it *2020-01-28, version 1.5.9* Great game, have been playing it for a while now. Keeps you entertained and wanting more... ### 4/5 — Fun!! Better than Wall 2 *2018-11-17* Love this time management game. It’s very fun and addictive and doesn’t break the bank or have ads to deal with. Suggestions for developers: Allow time to read the pre-game level summary, get rid of the dumb dragon all together, make more levels (many many more!!!!) on this game Wall 1 (wall 2 game is terrible to play—difficult to see anything at all!! No fun.), require actually touching the START button at the start of a game level (when I look around before I press start, the game starts without pressing the START button), and make the “relaxed” version pass or fail and get rid of the stars because watching the timer run is not what I consider relaxed at all!!! Obviously, a 2 player option (simultaneously) would be awesome! ### 5/5 — 5* *2018-10-18, version 1.5.9* Great game! Loving it so far but then I’ve only been playing for about 5days ### 5/5 — Great addictive game *2018-01-11, version 1.5.9* Love this game, would live to see loads more levels added or a version 2 released. I keep replaying missions just to keep me going. Keeps the mind active, you need to think quick and keep your eye out for all scenarios thrown at you. ### 5/5 — Great game but needs to be updated! *2017-10-24* Please update . I can’t play it anymore since I updated to iOS 11! ### 5/5 — China wall *2017-05-29, version 1.3* Great game! ### 5/5 — Great game *2017-05-21, version 1.3* Really good game. Very addictive ### 5/5 — Great Fun! *2017-04-08, version 1.3* Really fun game, easy to learn, hard to master! Very relaxing to play. ### 5/5 — Great Game *2017-04-08, version 1.3* Very addicting game Love it and would recommend to anyone! ### 5/5 — Fun and satisfying building game *2017-04-03* This is a super fun game. I bought 2 extender packs to get a few more levels and it's worth it. Have completed and restarted the game a few times. Would love a new version with more difficulty. ### 5/5 — Super addicting *2017-02-22, version 1.3* Lots of fun! Worth the purchase! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Watch charges *2024-04-06, version 1.5.9* Been charged for this update like it’s a new game when I have had this for a long time and already paid ### 1/5 — Zero stars *2017-12-28, version 1.3* Developer no longer supports. Do not waste money like I did ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2017-03-12, version 1.3* I got a new phone and recover the purchased game on it but I have to start all over at the beginning so I no longer play this game or buy any other games from nordcurrent again ### 1/5 — Such a shame *2016-10-22, version 1.3* It isn't free after a few levels you'll have to buy the full version. ### 1/5 — What happened? *2013-09-29, version 1.1* I bought the full version, had to reinstall it and now it's asking me to buy the full version again! ### 1/5 — Won't work *2013-06-19, version 1.0* Crashes before loading. ### 2/5 — No longer plays properly *2023-10-27, version 1.5.9* I have latest IOS and it no longer shows the full page! I bought the second one but was never able to load it. It was a great game! ### 2/5 — Fun not free *2015-11-14* So you may not get 3 stars on all the levels without spending some money there is the ability to play for free for a very limited time. In the end you have to pay to play. I like the game but wish the screen was a bit easier to navigate. You can zoom out to see everything but it can make selecting your next task a bit hard since the options are smaller. ### 3/5 — Enjoyable game but my purchases were all lost *2022-07-01, version 1.5.9* Loved playing this game. Purchased the full game and completed it. Very challenging and worth the purchase for me but disappointed that my purchase will not restore on my iPad. Otherwise a very fun and challenging game. ### 3/5 — Great Wall *2020-08-26* The only issue I have is when you get to the next level the description is so fast I’m not always sure what to do. I don’t even know what the warehouse does? Is it important? I even purchased full game thru Apple then repurchased somewhere else thinking it would be better. Nope, I guess programmers enjoy designing better games. All In all it’s good ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-08-21, version 1.5.9* Trust me get the full game it’s not that much and the full game is so good and cute I love it when they all clap for you ### 5/5 — More levels please *2023-12-06, version 1.5.9* I love this game!! I would happily pay for more levels. Please create an extra bonus update. Completed without warehouse, next challenge to complete without any bonus tools. It’s so nice to not have to keep paying. But 45 levels is not enough! I can play them all in a day. ### 5/5 — Interactive *2023-07-13, version 1.5.9* Best game, sick of matching games, this one is different and challenging. Love it would like more games like this, china wall 2 is better. ### 5/5 — 能否加入中文支持？ *2022-11-19, version 1.5.9* 能否加入中文？ ### 5/5 — Make more games!!! *2022-09-30* I am so addicted to this game. So fun and relaxing too. Wish I managed my time so well in real life haha ### 5/5 — Very enjoyable *2022-01-18, version 1.5.9* Nice game, entertaining ### 5/5 — Please fix *2021-12-22, version 1.5.9* Great game, but Great Wall 2 won’t work anymore. Please fix! ### 5/5 — Great game - NO IN APP PURCHASE! *2021-12-04* Thank you for keeping this game current. Such a great time management game and I love you can play through without having to buy energy, plus-ups, or other $$$-grabbing requirements in order to play! ### 5/5 — A lot of fun *2021-01-31, version 1.5.9* I really enjoy playing this game I also like 2 I wish they made more of them. ### 5/5 — Easy like Sunday morning *2020-09-01, version 1.5.9* Nice chilled game to pass the time --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
