Hicks ### 4/5 — Unable to upgrade, game currencies bug? *2023-11-17, version 4.1* Great game, tried upgrading the town hall but it won’t let me, it will stay on “processing” for forever, even having the required currency…. Also have noticed some quarters will say it will cost only gold when it’ll take diamonds as well, but thank you for fixing the issues with updating the app to play again, just kinda reset the whole map, don’t know if that was supposed to happen or not, but do appreciate the speedy fixes! ### 4/5 — Unable to update *2023-10-11* Great game, tried updating the game to continue playing but didn’t even say an update was available on the App Store, updated my phone to the newest iOS update, still not saying there’s an update on the App Store, just the game when I try to open it **Developer response:** Hello! The problem has been fixed. Please return to Econia! ### 3/5 — Update problème *2023-10-10* No update for iOS ### 4/5 — Good but can’t update. *2023-10-10, version 3.0* Came back after not playing for a while. I’m playing on IOS. I cannot update to version 10.0 so I can’t continue to play. ### 3/5 — Game needs an update *2023-10-10, version 3.0* Can’t play the game as it says need the latest version of the game, this is the latest version via the App Store. ### 1/5 — No *2023-08-13, version 2.3* I don’t want to improve my ad experience ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Connection Lost *2025-11-17, version 4.1* Haven't been able to connect in about a year. Can't even make it to the login screen. I had a lot invested into this game and this is really disappointing. I've tried multiple devices with the same issue. ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2025-05-12, version 4.1* Can’t even get past the loading screen ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2025-05-10, version 4.1* Don’t waste your time, never loaded for me once even after 5-10min of waiting usually only met with connection issue or the sorts. No idea how it has 5 stars when it doesn’t even load. ### 1/5 — Lovely loading screen. *2025-04-22, version 4.1* I would love to write a review, but you can’t even access the game. Loads for 30min and then just crashes… ### 1/5 — stupid *2024-03-23, version 4.1* 400 hours to earn 5 dollars, just go get a job ### 1/5 — Unfair *2024-02-03, version 4.1* This is really annoying because I was enjoying the game and some guy is taking over all my land. I have 4 workers and when I go to click the land it will say 2 hrs and then I accept and now it says more than 1 day. For all of them. The other plots are saying 1145 days. I’m going to stop playing. Because I can’t even use my land. Why allow other plays to take your land and then not allow you to defend yourself and use your own land? I was enjoying it before this guy ruined the game. ### 1/5 — Needs to be updated! *2023-10-16, version 3.0* I just downloaded this app and before I can even use it, it’s telling me to update to the latest version? Like wtf? ### 1/5 — Can’t play it *2023-10-12, version 3.0* I haven’t even got the chance to play this app bc all it does is says it needs to be updated and then it opens the App Store where it doesn’t give me the option to update it. I just keep going a round an around. ### 1/5 — Bugs galore *2023-10-10, version 3.0* How can l get into my game it says update but you can’t update it on the App Store. I want to leave the game and delete it. I’m over all the bugs. The side game ldle Dragons for collecting gems kept resetting every time I left it. I’ve been playing for 2 months and not earned one Nuetronium. I’ve clocked up many hours building my megalopolis and spent money buying gems and even bought 2 quarters. I’m just over it. How can l access the game? ### 1/5 — No response from support *2023-10-10, version 3.0* The app needs an update. The update is not available. I’ve emailed support a few times. No response. Be careful. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excited *2024-05-17, version 4.1* Super excited to see how this game turns out.
