It also needs joystick controls please ### 4/5 — Lots of Fun *2015-07-10* Great fun. If you like the books you will enjoy the game. A great summer game. ### 3/5 — Fun game, however out of place *2015-04-29* I'm a fan of the Cato & Macro books, currently up to date on all of them. When I finished Blood Brothers I find to my surprise an advert for the app at the end of the book. Straight away, I will say that I will be critical of the app. It's a great game in itself, but I find it more relatable to the horrible history than the Cato & Macro series (Ignoring the direct quotes and references). The game is fun, a wave defence game. Having to place troops in key positions and using officer abilities to turn the tide, it also has a good amount of challenge. The game does have gems you can purchase, but you can still enjoy the game without them. This game however is more targeted at introducing new people to the books, quoting quite heavily from the books in game. It doesn't really offer anything new to the people (like myself) whom are up to date. So I would knock it down two stars, due to the cartoony portrayal (The books can be quite dark) and lack of incentives or rewards for people whom have already read them (current reward seems to be a sentence from the author and a few paragraphs from the relevant book). Three stars for being simple, fun in terms of gameplay and flaming pigs (nostalgia of Rome Total War). I definitely recommend this game! ### 3/5 — Extent *2014-11-19* The story and fort is great but lacks in extending both because it could be more better with more resourced buildings. ### 4/5 — норм *2014-11-19* Добавьте русский язык, еще игра постонно вылетает ### 1/5 — Timing doesn't work *2014-11-18* Unless the app is open time passes extremely slowly, so a building that states a 45 minute build time will actually take several hours ### 1/5 — Mr *2014-11-15* Won't even open in current update a waste of time ### 3/5 — Could be so good, but..... *2014-11-14* First of all, I am ecstatic that my favourite book series has a game now, especially since it is quite faithful to Scarrow's characters. Game play is suprisingly good, dialogue is funny and the battles are exciting. However, the typical "waiting game" app design is especially terrible in this game. It's a frustrating way to pace a game anyway, but the waits are especially long and unproductive in this game. Even worse, if i am out of the app, time doesn't pass, so the 2 hour town hall upgrade I started last night still has an hour to go this morning, 8 hours later. If all I can do every few hours is buy a couple of troops and then wait some more, it kind of cools my interest. Access to a control panel would be nice, so one could adjust music volume etc. ### 4/5 — Не хватает Русского языка *2014-11-10* Не хватает русского языка а так игра вроде бы не чего просто что бы в нее вникнуть нужен русский язык а так тупо тыкаешь наугад и нападаешь не зная что к чему. ### 4/5 — Нормально *2014-11-09* Сделайте русский ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Leider nicht spielbar *2026-07-29* Es kommt nur die Benachrichtigung das keine Verbindung zum Server besteht. ### 1/5 — Keine Internetverbindung. Unspielbar *2024-04-18* Keine Internetverbindung. Unspielbar ### 1/5 — Keine Internetverbindung *2023-02-19* Angeblich ### 1/5 — A bad experience *2022-09-20* Downloaded and tried to open but kept saying ‘cannot access server - check internet connection’, which was absurd because the internet was fine. Also told me that I was ‘logged in’ as someone I’ve never heard of. Shame, as I like the Scarrow books, but I don’t trust this game. Seems dodgy to me. ### 1/5 — Angry *2022-09-03* I might sound like a karen but dont play this wont let you on devs please fix these ### 1/5 — Läuft nicht *2022-08-25* …..angeblich keine Internetverbindung ### 1/5 — Can’t connect to server *2022-07-02* Can’t play the game, needs fixing or removing from the App Store. ### 1/5 — Буквы *2016-02-13* Разрабы сделайте нормальные буквы а не знаки вопросов в квадрате я нефига не понимаю исправити буквы тогда будет 5 а так 1 ### 1/5 — Short *2015-05-14, version 1.0.7* Pointless app when completed within days of not really trying. No need to buy gems folks. Piece of piss! ### 1/5 — Pony *2014-11-27* Very let down by only 12 levels!! :-( ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Such a shame *2022-12-03* I’ve just started reading the books again and still had the app in My phone but it appears it’s no longer supported 😖 is their a way to play offline ? ### 5/5 — Kann leider nicht spielen *2022-10-23* Ich finde die Idee geil aber leider kann ich das Spiel nicht spielen weil immer angezeigt wird das keine Internet Verbindung besteht. ### 5/5 — Sehr cool *2019-11-01* Ich mag die ROM-Serie ### 5/5 — Needs more players *2015-12-18* Fun game ### 5/5 — Top *2015-01-27* Spitzen Spiel für zwischen durch!! :) ### 5/5 — Bringing the books to life *2015-01-25* One of my favourite books series as a game.
