### 4/5 — Испытание альянса

*2026-08-16*

Исправьте испытание альянса. Игра постоянно на нем зависает. Приходится начинать с начала. А хорошее начало очень трудно найти.

### 3/5 — Screen Space

*2026-08-16, version 4.33*

I do enjoy this game, but the postage stamp size of playable area on the screen is ridiculous. The remainder of the screen being taken up with money making “offers” for the benefit of the developer.

### 4/5 — incrível

*2026-08-09*

Ótimo passa tempo

### 4/5 — Coflab

*2026-08-09, version 4.20*

Very nice

### 4/5 — 게임은 재밌음

*2026-08-01*

광고를 너무 많이 보게되는데 그거 때문에 흥미가 떨어짐

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2026-07-23, version 4.20*

I am officially addicted. Very chill. Lots to do. Nicely done.

### 5/5 — Fun Game

*2026-07-22, version 4.20*

Great graphics, a little to heavy on the advertising to purchase extras.  You however don’t need it to play the game, but I purchased some to support the developers.

### 5/5 — 농장겜 좋아하면 해보시는거 추천(무과금 잠시만)

*2026-07-15*

과금 유도 진짜 미쳐돌아갑니다. 패스 파는거 다 사면 어우.. 그래도 꾹 참으면 킬링타임으로 하기 괜찮은듯

### 5/5 — Меня затянуло

*2026-07-11*

Совсем недавно скачала игру и я залипла, очень нравится подобная графика в играх! Уже успела найти себе клан и приятных друзей

### 4/5 — Great

*2026-07-10, version 4.10*

The game is excellent, the micro transactions are way too aggressive.

### 5/5 — Затягивает

*2026-07-08*

Интерестно

### 4/5 — Entertaining

*2026-06-29, version 4.10*

Fun to play!

### 4/5 — Great

*2026-06-14, version 4.10*

Game

### 4/5 — Great

*2026-06-13, version 4.10*

So far so good

### 4/5 — Much the same ol’

*2026-06-12, version 4.10*

I really don’t want to mingle/clash with my neighbors. I’d rather focus on my city. I won’t spend money so expect to eventually be overwhelmed by dissatisfaction or invasion. Ah me.  Lots of time down the tubes. Wish me luck.

### 4/5 — Как объединить отряды для повышения ранга?

*2026-06-11*

Пару раз получилось друг на друга их навести, они объединились, но больше так не выходит, какие правила на этот счет??

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-06-09, version 4.10*

I really like cuz it’s basically where there you a emperor and you control the whole Rome

### 5/5 — Great game but all about paying

*2026-06-07, version 4.10*

This is a fun game but there are several season type passes which leads me to believe I will have to pay for most activities. As such I will say great game guys but not sustainable. I reckon people will move on to where payment is fair.

### 5/5 — Excellent game

*2026-06-01, version 4.10*

This is a very enjoyable game with beautiful graphics, I especially like how you can select which products to collect when the warehouse is getting full.

### 1/5 — Может кто-то объяснить ??????

*2026-07-04*

Уже какой раз просто так без объяснения меняется опыт воинов !!!! Сегодня они вообще пропали все с поля боя , поставить сильных не могу , ставятся более слабые ! Поэтому одна звезда! Чтобы отзыв заметили

### 1/5 — Not Fun to Play

*2026-05-26, version 4.10*

Warehouse gets full you get stuck, and the game is just too frustrating to continue playing anymore.  So it is heading for that great scrAPP Yard in the ether.

### 1/5 — 광고 좀 어케 안되나

*2026-05-24*

게임성은 나쁘지 않음. 중독적임. 근데 광고가 반나절인듯. 보기 싫어도 어쩔수 없이 보게됨 재료 구하려면..

**Developer response:** 리뷰 남겨주셔서 감사합니다! 😊
게임 플레이를 재미있게 즐기고 계시다니 정말 기쁩니다. 광고에 대한 의견도 잘 이해하고 있습니다. 게임 내 광고 시청은 완전히 선택 사항이며, 광고를 볼지 여부는 플레이어가 직접 결정할 수 있습니다. 또한 광고를 시청하면 도시 발전에 도움이 되는 추가 보상, 재료 및 다양한 유용한 자원을 받을 수 있습니다.

소중한 의견을 남겨주셔서 감사드리며, 해당 의견은 개발팀에도 전달하겠습니다. 앞으로도 즐거운 플레이와 멋진 도시 건설을 응원합니다! 😊

### 1/5 — Error, not receiving items

*2026-03-28, version 3.93*

In-app purchases are currently broken. I have been charged multiple times and received nothing. The app shows a verification error (“IOS_no_transaction”) and this is happening across multiple apps from the same developer. Support links in the app do not work. Do NOT spend money here until this is fixed.

### 1/5 — Ads Ads Ads

*2026-01-21, version 3.55*

Only play this game if you like ads. I have never in my entire life seen a game with so many adds. It is crazy. Do NOT waste your time. Be warned it might seem good at the beginning but the adds actually get progressively worse as you continue to play. It is so bad it can’t even put words to the crazy.

### 1/5 — Watch full ads

*2026-01-02, version 3.55*

I spent more times watching ads than actually playing unless you want pay to play

### 1/5 — I can't open it

*2025-12-01, version 3.41*

why

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-11-24, version 3.41*

I have been playing this game for a couple of years. It was brilliant. There were just enough ads. But…..now all has changed. You are bombarded with them. To get most rewards there are ads. It has changed the whole concept of the game.  Shame

### 1/5 — Tracking is Bad!

*2025-11-10, version 3.35*

Any app that requires tracking has nothing but ill intentions in my opinion. I deleted this game the minute I could not opt-out of tracking. 

Usually tracking is not isolated to just the game, but your entire device. The tracking goes through your entire device and all your apps & GPS history and then sells your info to a third-party in addition do using it for themselves. Remember that.

### 1/5 — Fun until you have to pay for everything

*2025-08-08, version 3.12*

I found this game a lot if fun. I even spent some money but then you have to keep spending money to play. I can’t even play anymore without spending money. No thanks

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2026-08-23, version 4.33*

Easy to play and have in the background

### 5/5 — So addictive! Great civilization game.

*2026-08-20, version 4.33*

I played this game about 3-4 hours in my first sitting. It’s incredibly addictive. Nice graphics and game set up. It’s a little annoying and repetitive. And it is hard to move forward without paying at least a little. I’ve spent 30$ in the first few days. And I rarely spend more than 5$ at a time on a game. It might be TOO MUCH geared towards pay to play… 
But as a newbie I’m still figuring it out. 
My one drawback: I wish there were more battle scenes. To practice and train soldiers. Not as much towards essences and substances, but battle training for real.

### 5/5 — Игра

*2026-08-20*

### 5/5 — Empire city: Civilization Dawn
