### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2022-10-10, version 1.2.2*

I liked the game very much when i first tryed , but then u get see pvp is only bots , ull always match with them at 9s , and when i seem face real player , the matchmaking freeze . So im quitting today because of this . Also one thing that dissapoint me is in pvp , u can win by getting a certain ammount of currency, and the 1 game i lost is bc the ennemy « bot » somehow was making 2 time faster more currency even at the start of the game , with only 1 mine , while i had 3 and still tryed to keep up

### 3/5 — A good base but a long way to go

*2022-10-03*

This game has serious promise don’t get me wrong, in its current state however, the game is plagued with unbalanced gameplay and elements which need major configuration which takeaway from the feel and game style of each match.

Currently there is a need to improve the current AI that’s used to fill in the player numbers, the AI is very simple and far too easy to beat, not to mention I don’t believe the AI has been updated to consider the neutral enemies hence it will lose builders both at the start of the match and throughout the match (you can tell this occurs at the start of the match as you can hear all game audio even when fights are within the fog of war, another thing that would need addressing).

On another point the economy wins are far too easy to achieve with this occurring almost 100% of the time for each match that has this. I’d also love to see a bit more variety in terms of map layouts with multiple lanes to add a larger degree of variety.

All in all the game does have a good basis but I do hope the developers improve the gameplay in addition to adding content which would add a larger amount of variety I.e. more varied units such as a mile unit that could bore under terrain (just an example but something to this more ability based degree that would make each unit have a more distinct play style). Specific unit grouping I.e. selecting would make this a lot easier to control and use.

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your detailed feedback! We are glad that you liked the game. In the next updates, there will be many improvements. We will try to make you happy in the future. Your sincerely, Black Bears.

### 3/5 — Can’t fight

*2022-10-02*

Can’t fight takes you back to starting area

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! We will try to make you happy in the next updates.

### 3/5 — Problems

*2022-10-01*

Matchmaking sometimes crashes, which means you won’t load into a game.

Pathfinding is absolute trash, fight movement is bad too.

Very simplistic

And PayToWin aspects, how far they go I can’t tell. 

3/5
Wouldn’t recommend at this stage

Chouette mais impossible de trouver la version française annoncée dans le descriptif. Pouvez vous m’aider ?

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! We will try to make you happy in the next updates.

### 1/5 — Hacking and pay to win problem

*2022-03-14*

I got out of the tutorial and I’m instantly facing level ten purple units you have to buy with real money from the shop. And the one match I didn’t I was about to win after I killed all of his troops just for my castle’s health to just disappear with nothing attacking it.

### 4/5 — Can’t fight

*2022-02-27*

When I try to fight PVP the fight just stays on the loading screen. Also I can’t seem to get out of the PVP area & go back to the area where I can build & fight the CPU.

### 1/5 — Tutorials not issue

*2022-02-13*

Tutorials are not the issue it’s just games server. I’ve played games with longer tutorials, and even though the tutorial doesn’t need to be that long, well at least you get a good grabs of the game. However, the server is trash. You would try to connect to a game with someone else and nothing would happen. Tried this several times and it’s simply just can’t connect you to find another person.

### 1/5 — Horrible!

*2022-01-24*

Game looks great, however, I can NEVER get into a game! I’ve waited as long as 15 minutes and tried multiple times reinstalling the game but nope still won’t join any games. Sorry I’ve tried and I’m done trying. 1/5

### 3/5 — Cool but glitch

*2021-12-20*

When it says to tap the engineer  I can’t move the the screen to tap on it

### 1/5 — Que des bugs

*2022-10-12*

Nul.... 
les parties s'arrêtent sans raisons sur une défaite.
Pas de mode d'emploi Français, comme annoncé.
Un chat de clan qui ne s'ouvre pas.
On dirait un jeu mal fait et mal fini
Et je pense que ce commentaire n'apparaîtra pas.....

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! We will try to make you happy in the next updates.

### 1/5 — Better buy RTS Siege Up!

*2022-10-04*

This thing is s classic cash grab trash that just pretending to be an rts but it’s not! If you want a real RTS like age of empires then buy RTS Siege Up! for only 3€! The RTS Siege Up! Is a real full game with everything you need on a real RTS and without paywalls and micro transactions crap like this “game”. Oh yes, since the devs of this crap are using the game description to ask yotubers to promote this crap, so i used the review option to direct people to a real and better game that will not rip them off their money like this crap right here!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the detailed feedback! We will try to make you happy in the next updates.

### 1/5 — Too many bugs and crashes

*2022-10-04*

Bought campaign and can’t even play it. They don’t know how to optimise the game for older version of phones. Everytime I go on play button for multiplayer games I am stuck on loading screen and everytime I press the campaign button and click on the *first* mission it crashes back to the homescreen. Going to get refund. 0 seconds gametime - need to fix the game - aint even playable lol

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! We will try to make you happy in the next updates.

### 1/5 — Had it for all of 2 mins

*2022-10-01*

Download did tutorial realised the game is not free pretty much have to pay for everything to enjoy the “free game” bop doesn’t even load it either stays on loading screen or finds battle then doesn’t load

Stay away just an add machine

**Developer response:** Hello. Thank you for the feedback. The game was created in such a way that it could be played without making purchases. A huge number of players have achieved impressive results in the game without paying. Your sincerely, Black Bears.

### 5/5 — Very relaxing

*2022-10-12*

If you like games which you can play for hours this is it after trying it for a while I realized how fun it is the tutorial is a bit long but once you get past that it’s a fun game to play I haven’t come across any bugs or problems but others have so I would say take caution

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your detailed feedback! We are glad that you liked the game. In the next updates, there will be many improvements. We will try to make you happy in the future. Your sincerely, Black Bears.
