### 5/5 — Really amazing game

*2026-08-23, version 18.400.22*

I have been playing this game for around 12 years now. I have loved every second of it. The recent updates have made it entirely more playable and less time consuming. Definitely a lot easier now than when I started so people really get to play it at its peak. The only issue I have with this game is the builder base aspect. Once you get that sixth builder, the bases just rot. No purpose, not even fun to attack, the rewards take up slots for the main base and I choose potions of builder rewards because it’s just so terribly bad. There really needs to be something else done with this. I’m a maxed 17 and I still refuse to do anything with the builder base even though I wait 10-12 days for upgrades and no builders available. I’ve asked global and almost all agree that it’s really pointless and not necessary. I’m still giving 5 stars because I basically just ignore this aspect of the game, but it’s to the point where I’d rather have something fun to do than mess with the builder base.

### 5/5 — I play this game daily

*2026-08-23, version 18.400.22*

I love COC!

### 3/5 — Love

*2026-08-23, version 18.400.22*

Perfect

### 2/5 — Not worth it

*2026-08-23, version 18.400.22*

The best part of the game is attacking and the best part of attacking is the heroes. The updates keep nerfing the champions and buffing the opposing heroes. Now the attacking system is so hard at the highest ranks that it just isn’t fun any more. It seems like they’re catering to the pros and streamers instead of the regular players.

Additionally, its stability varies. Sometimes there are no issues, and sometimes it struggles to be stable.

### 3/5 — NERF THE DAMN ELEPHANTS

*2026-08-23, version 18.400.22*

4 ELEPHANTS. 4 ELEPHANTS DESTROYED MY ENTIRE BASE.

### 5/5 — Invite only problem and more things

*2026-08-23, version 18.400.22*

Trust systems hate having no way to reclaim clan from scammers now the original leader will reclaim it or if original leader not on in 30 days it go to a trust friend if. The current one inaction for 30 days and leaders have the ability to call the co leader for an opinion .

### 5/5 — The problem

*2026-08-23, version 18.400.22*

I love this game and I’ve played for a long time but for the love of god bring back the old trophy system

### 5/5 — It’s a really fun game

*2026-08-23, version 18.400.22*

It’s a really cool game. I like how you can battle and join clans. By the way you should join my clan. Here’s the description #2J0LJYLY8 so join it now I like this game because it’s super fun and you should play it. Download it today and join my clan and we can be the very best. I hope you enjoy playing the game and yeah, you should also really upgrade your walls or upgraded your Townhall and your troops and join my clan once again upgrade everything get better stuff and don’t attack my base #2J0LJYLY8

### 5/5 — Great, 1 request

*2026-08-22, version 18.400.22*

This is a great game and nothing tops it, best mobile game in my book, but can you please add a feature which allows you to work more builders on 1 build/upgrade. And have it speed it up please?

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-08-22, version 18.400.22*

Very fun
