### 3/5 — Lässt sich nicht mehr starten

*2026-06-25*

Lässt sich nach dem Update nicht mehr starten

### 4/5 — Wichtige Funktionen fehlen bei iOS

*2026-04-09*

Bitte mal alle Funktionen analog Android nachziehen.

### 4/5 — Upgrade

*2026-01-20*

### 2/5 — Laufend Abstürze und Fehlermeldungen

*2025-08-29*

Seit ein paar Tagen häufen sich die Systemabstürze und Fehlermeldungen . 
Mindert jeden Spielspaß

### 2/5 — Ekran okuyucusu ile oynuyorum

*2024-03-13, version 10.7.0*

Lütfen düzeltin Oyun kasıyor arayüzde dolaşmakta çok zorlanıyorum oyun çok doluyor

### 4/5 — Trésorier d’alliance

*2024-02-04*

Bonjour. Pourriez-vous activer l’option de trésorerie dans l’alliance comme sur le jeu LORDS & KNIGHTS. Et également d’avoir l’option du cadeau quotidien. À part ça, très bon jeu.

### 3/5 — Fantastic game, but horrible support

*2023-10-05*

I love the game and have been playing it for years.  When you play, you can copy an identifier number that game support is supposed to use in case you lose your account.  Mine was lost when I got a new phone.  It has been over a week and no support from the game “help” at all.
 It is a really fun game, but don’t count on any help if you ever need it!  They are 100% non-responsive!

### 4/5 — Great but has issues.

*2022-12-29*

I thoroughly enjoy this game, I started slow before I realized you can get resources from tasks and I never knew you can raid AI villages with just a single slinger early game. I only learned how to play the game after I looked it up and found a wiki article. That’s another issue, there’s ZERO help from outside sources. People in the game don’t answer, there’s no wiki page, there’s no discord, there’s not even a Q&A. That’s not to say they don’t provide info tabs when you click the i but I spent hours trying to learn how to get horse drawn carriages and can’t find anything online

### 2/5 — يوجد خطأ في الآونة الاخيرة

*2022-09-21, version 9.18.0*

اصبح لا يمكن ترتيب القرى والحصون بالاستناد الى عدد الجنود او التابعين.

### 2/5 — Bugs important dans maj 9.18.0

*2022-09-18*

La maj 9.18.0 qui ajoute une fonction appréciable de tri des habitats par ressources est par ailleurs catastrophique car elle a supprimé le tri par type d’unités disponible depuis des années, ne laissant que la possibilité de tri global par unités disponibles, qui par ailleurs est complètement buggé. Quand on possède un grand nombre d’habitats, le recrutement en masse d’unités sans cette fonctionnalité est quasiment impossible. Merci de bien vouloir rétablir au plus vite cette fonction.

### 2/5 — Terrible last update

*2022-03-06*

It’s most annoying that the game developer thought it’s a good idea to constantly change the order of messages and general functions. If you have quite some messages the system messages are now invisible on the bottom. Another great idea to make the font size in parts of the game so small that they are nearly unreadable. And no option to increase the size using standard iOS functions. Terrible now to play this game.

### 1/5 — No carga

*2020-11-21, version 8.11.0*

El juego lleva años sin algun cambio o actualizacion reelevante. En la version IOS no hay esfuerzos belicos para pedir ayuda de defensa o ataque. 

Hoy sabado 21 no es posible entrar. No cargan los reinos o servidores.

### 2/5 — Wieder nichts

*2020-10-22*

Mal wieder ein Spiel was den Namen Echtzeit Strategie zweckentfremdet.
 
Ich freue mich immer da ich spiele Typen wie 
Age of Empires oder Age of Mythology erwarte. Aber sowas wird es scheinbar nie fürs Handy geben :/ bleibt wohl weiterhin eine Wunschvorstellung

### 1/5 — Dead game

*2025-12-06*

Game never releasing new content, developers cater to big money spenders. I’ve had a complaint in for months and still not even an acknowledgment. They don’t care about there players- they only keep updating for money. 
This used to be a great game when it came out. Now don’t waste your phones memory. 
I’ll update this is they ever fix these issues

### 1/5 — Simplemente inutil

*2025-11-30, version 10.25.0*

Como es posible que para reclutar soldados encesite 10 aldeas conquistadas tio,esto es inuusto

### 1/5 — Developers absent

*2025-10-26, version 10.24.0*

If you have a problem, don’t expect to hear back from developers. They’re happy getting the money from the game but aren’t interested in handling issues or complaints from players.

### 1/5 — Voice over inaccessible

*2024-08-16*

Cant get past the tutorial with voiceover. Sticks at forcing me to attack a free village. Can’t attack, or proceed with tutorial.

### 1/5 — Mala actualización

*2024-07-15, version 10.11.0*

Desde la ultima actualización no se puede entrar con Facebook

### 1/5 — Will change if they get back to me

*2023-10-31, version 10.4.2*

Game on new server broken and they don’t check or repair it and they don’t respond to messages from players. They want you to buy potions but don’t monitor the issues. Been playing with a broken server for 3 weeks. Download if you want but your joining a dying game that the devs don’t seem to care about. 
I’ll delete this and change my review if they start getting back to players and fix new server.

### 1/5 — Problems

*2023-01-22*

This game is entertaining, but since yesterday I’ve been having trouble logging in. I’ve checked my connection, and it works fine. I’ve messaged the support team and have not yet received a reply since yesterday. What is happening?
Edit: I've deleted, reinstalled, and deleted again, because this game is just straight up pay to win. Sure, speed up your progress of building and research and recruiting. But then you can refill your resources with just a couple thousand coins. Yet the most ridiculous mechanic is the ability to purchase villages on the map, which will be taken advantage of by people with enough money in their wallets. Stay away from this and any other game made by this developer. They're really after your money.

### 1/5 — Alte Welten!

*2022-03-24*

Wird Zeit für eine neue Welt, dann gebe ich auch 5 Sterne 👍

**Developer response:** Eine neue Welt wurde erst vor einigen Wochen veröffentlicht! Teste sie doch mal aus! :)

### 1/5 — Bad game

*2022-02-15*

It’s a B A D game man

### 1/5 — Tr 3 serveri açılması lazım

*2021-12-07, version 9.5.0*

Tr 3 serveri açılması lazım 100 lerce kişi ile görüşüyoruz yeni serverın açılması lazım

### 5/5 — Verschlimmbessert

*2026-01-20*

Seit dem letzten Update auf iOS kommt man nicht mehr ins Spiel

### 5/5 — 중독성 굿 재미남

*2025-11-19*

국내유저는 별로없는듯. 10여년전에 했던거 생각나서 다시함

### 5/5 — Bestes Strategiespiel

*2025-04-13*

CT ist, wie auch L&K, mit das beste Strategiespiel, das ich kenne.
Leider scheinen hier keine Updates mehr zu kommen. Werden hier auch irgendwann Städte hinzugefügt, wie bei L&K?

### 5/5 — Excellent jeu accessible avec VoiceOver

*2025-04-06*

Ce jeu est excellent, il offre de l’action au début, et puis de l’attente, ensuite, pour l’amélioration des bâtiments, comme dans tous jeux du genre. De plus,. Non négligeable, il est accessible avec un lecteur d’écran, ce qui permet aux déficients visuels de pouvoir y jouer sans problème, ce qui n’est pas le cas de la plupart des jeux.
Merci et bravo.

### 5/5 — Достойная игра !

*2024-12-24*

Убить время , окунуться в стратегии старого времени , интересная система развития и взаимодействия с игроками ! Графика хорошая ! Продалжайте в том же духе !

### 5/5 — Auch mit VoiceOver super spielbar

*2022-02-07*

Ich findde dieses Spiel absolut gelungen. Auch für blinde Menschen, die auf VoiceOver angewiesen sind, ist es absolut klasse. Einfach ein tolles Erlebnis!

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank! :)

### 5/5 — Здоровская игра!

*2021-01-17*

Все понравилось! Игра очень атмосферная. Доступно для VoiceOver.

### 5/5 — Super !

*2020-09-29*

Jeu super ! Je trouve que l’on s’ennuie sur le jeu ! Simple et efficace ce jeu et un régale ! 
Seul chose que je pourrais dire c’est que l’on ne peut pas renommer l’es village que l’on achète ... 
Mais dans l’ensemble ce jeu et une merveille.

### 5/5 — An idea

*2020-05-20*

I honestly really like the game, it captures the expand to survive, one theme in addition you could pursue is samurai following the exact same mechanics or a really good option is the colonial America or something like that.

### 5/5 — Да

*2020-04-01, version 8.4.1*

Хорошая игрушка, что-то среднее между Травиан и Икариам. Стоит потратить время.
