Also I know the game is still in development but the detailing of the game there should be small decor (lamps,pathways,benches,carts,etc)that you can place around to be able to decorate your city. Another thing Is I’m already at the 3rd city and there’s no more progress I don’t know when the game is gonna come out with the new city’s but there’s not really much to do after you complete the city I feel like there should atleast still be task or side quest you can do to add to the city And maybe do like events or something like that ### 4/5 — Cool *2023-08-13, version 1.0* Ok ### 4/5 — Pleas add edit layout *2022-07-20, version 1.0* Nice cute idle game. Would be nice if we could edit the layout of the villages. ### 3/5 — Wait times are way too long *2022-05-30, version 1.0* I loved this game for the first few days, but pretty quickly you’re waiting over 24 hours for a resource transfer or for getting enough resources to do anything. I want to sit down for a few minutes and build some stuff while I drink my coffee, but lately all there is to do is watch some ads (now 3x as many for my 3 towns) to keep the automatic resource collection going. I don’t mind watching ads for that automation, I think it’s a great structure. I just think the balance is out of whack for the game-play time vs ad-watching time that’s required to keep it going. ### 4/5 — Love it! But Needs improvement *2021-11-06, version 1.0* This is an awesome game. Most games like these I download play for one day and then delete. I’ve kept this for a few days now and I think I’ll be playing long term. I’d like to recommend some fixes. The auto collect feature for watching ads shouldn’t be for each city rather the whole country. We shouldn’t have to pay to move items around once we buy them it should be free to move them around. If we scrap them then we should get the money and resources refunded. Lastly the resources, we should be able to send multiple caravans at the same time. It annoying that each caravan can only carry just one item and then we can only send one caravan at a time. At least each city should get one caravan and maybe we could have a import/export building where caravan loads and such are upgraded. Castles should get some nice upgrades like a moat or an awesome looking barbican or battlements etc. ### 4/5 — Takes time but other than that it’s good *2021-10-01, version 1.0* It’s okay it just takes a long time to progress ### 4/5 — I like this game *2021-04-26, version 1.0* I just wish the ads would work they kick me out of the game an most the time they freeze please update its a great game it just needs some fixing up ### 3/5 — Good but buggy *2021-02-17, version 1.0* So i got this game and started playing it then i noticed a weird bug in the game that whenever i didnt have enough resources the little guy would pop up with a sad face but then what creeped me out the most was that his face was sad for 2 seconds then it slowly turned back to normal and he started staring at me this obviously this disgusted me and creeped me out so pls fix it P.S. this game is good because every house can be unique ### 4/5 — Craft town *2020-03-13, version 1.0* A welcome new twist on city building games ### 4/5 — My past time *2019-11-23, version 1.0* I enjoy playing. Thanks for all your hard work. Keep making games! ### 4/5 — Good *2019-10-30, version 1.0* Nice game, but miss some buildings ### 4/5 — This is awesome *2019-09-13, version 1.0* Will there be a sequel to this ### 5/5 — This is a great game *2019-07-25, version 1.0* I just love that this game is an all ad based game with no pay to win but there’s also not that many ads one thing I think would be cool to add though is like tax collections building to automatically collect the money in the game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Idle? *2023-10-01, version 1.0* Can’t watch videos. Not sure why. Keeps saying there’s slow connection but I have fibre wifi. Can’t even make it an idle game if I wanted to! Not sure what the issue is but not enjoying it if I can’t automate collection. ### 1/5 — Dumb *2021-05-05, version 1.0* Went to upgrade lumber mills and it converted them to houses. Why would that even be possible? Stupid glitch that absolutely broke the game. Just plain dumb. It’s too bad because the building concept is intriguing. ### 1/5 — Idle watching video game *2020-05-02, version 1.0* NO way! If it’s idle it should work on background Here you HAVE to watch video all the time really all the time!!! ### 1/5 — Too reliant on adds *2020-03-05, version 1.0* It’s an idle game, except you need to watch an add per town every time you play to make it idle. There’s a huge issue with balance, the objectives are long and arduous before it introduces a small piece of content. Transferring resources between towns takes at least a day. In this time nothing progresses unless you watch adds. bland idea poorly implemented. ### 1/5 — Horrible game *2020-02-21, version 1.0* Horrid game that’s features are a pathetic attempt at a low budget game. ### 1/5 — beautiful crafted game ... but *2019-10-07, version 1.0* Don’t get me wrong: I don’t usually rate games that low (either a good rating or none) but for this game I changed my mind. The good: it’s well crafted and looks gorgeous. The simple game mechanics work and are engaging but ... The bad: ... then after the first houses go up and the need for ‘stone’ arises in the game it’s over (at least for me). The auto-harvesting doesn’t work since the advertisement-mechanic seems to be broken. I get a “too slow internet connection” though I am on a fast wifi with a gen.7 IPad (and video streaming works all well). While this is annoying the lack of support (at least in English) is the biggest problem. The Russian developer site has a partial English translation (and yes, I found the button to switch languages but it didn’t work either). It also seems that the focus of the developer lies somewhere else ... all good with me but please don’t put a game up for download that you’ve decided isn’t worth the time anymore to developer further ... this is only frustrating for everyone who falls for the two five star reviews ... Looking at the overview map of future “towns to explore” I can only assume that there will be none ... sad, sad, sad. ### 1/5 — Update — Started ok, but now....meh *2019-05-24, version 1.0* Don't waste your time.... complete waste of effort, deleted after a few weeks. Game started great, fairly simple and easy to learn with clear goals. Now, nothing..... just blank mindless collecting with no real objective. Maybe I missed something? ### 1/5 — Me *2019-05-07, version 1.0* CRAP.. downloaded and it will nit even open 👎👎👎👊👎👎👎... Have to give it A START JUST TO WRITE A REVIEW😡👎👎👎👎👎 dumb..useless review system ### 1/5 — Buggy *2018-11-27, version 1.0* I enjoyed the game up until the time all the ads stopped working. You need ads to work for the game to work. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling. Tried shut the app and opening it again. Turned WiFi off then on. The ads just couldn’t be watched. I want to give this five stars but I can’t until the ads work. (Who ever thought they’d actually want ads!?! Madness!) P.S. I’ve only been playing the game for a few hours. ### 3/5 — Trying it out *2022-08-27, version 1.0* So far it’s fun, haven’t played much yet tho…been playing more and there definitely needs fixes. If you buy a building and misplace it or try and readjust, you will be charged again!. The income is a bit wonky as well even without market bonus I had one building producing less even tho it was upgraded more than the 2nd building. Game is very bland and needs more decorations. The caravan is going to get old real quick. Overall I’m still interested on the potential! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Хорошая игра *2024-04-02, version 1.0* Прикольная игра есть смысл в неё играть, очень всё продумано или вкус строить дома я уже открыл целых три области.!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Fun Game, Intriguing Gameplay *2021-01-09, version 1.0* The leveling needs some work, as it greatly impacts the pacing of the game, but overall it is a fun game and has a great unique play. ### 5/5 — Simple Building Fun *2020-11-23, version 1.0* I’m having fun with the game so far. It does get annoying with the ads. I wish there was an option to remove the ads. ### 5/5 — Tea *2020-11-05, version 1.0* I love this game! ### 5/5 — Good game yeah *2020-08-28, version 1.0* This game is so reasonable I can't stop playing it I even play it when I am getting beaten by my dad it's such a fun game get it now you muppet before I come and smack you with a frozen fish.😡😡😡😍😍 ### 5/5 — Hello *2020-08-11, version 1.0* Hello there are you available today thanks ### 5/5 — This is a great app. *2020-04-13, version 1.0* I’m loving it i’m making Great empire now I’ m really ### 5/5 — Love it! *2020-03-29, version 1.0* Love it! ### 5/5 — Fun game *2019-11-09, version 1.0* Fun and pretty idle game without a ton of ads. ### 5/5 — Very good game *2019-09-08, version 1.0* A very nice game that will keep your whole family busy.
