### 1/5 — LastLight Liars!!

*2026-08-09, version 1.5.27*

So fake that their ads have a different name than the app you are downloading. Was LastLight, but now it’s Epic War. If their game is so bad that they have to change the name to trick people to play…. Stay Away!!

### 5/5 — Decent

*2026-07-20, version 1.5.26*

It’s a good game with many different aspects(mini games) within itself. The worst part is it’s very very pay to win! As a free to play player it doesn’t matter how much time/effort you put in you will still get beat by someone that spends money.

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2026-06-20, version 1.5.24*

It would be great if the whole game was protecting the cats from the bees, but you do very little of that and the rest is the most uninteresting waste of time ridiculous game of building a city or something, it’s horrible

### 1/5 — Nope

*2026-06-19, version 1.5.24*

This is seriously not even the same game. I can’t even believe it.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-06-16, version 1.5.24*

A very fun game with lots of nice people from around the world

### 1/5 — Preferred treatment

*2026-06-08*

The game is flawed by preferential treatment to players that spent over 100k USD. These accounts have since been sold or transferred to another player which is against the games TOS. When this issue is brought to the attention of customer service nothing is done about it. You can provide the proof of the individual stating that the account was given to them. You can provide the proof that accounts are being advertised for sale on Discord and their own in game world chat of the same individual selling accounts. Again a violation of their TOS. If I could go back in time I would never download this game and waste the money I had spent on it.

### 1/5 — pay to win

*2026-06-08, version 1.5.22*

This game is very bad. A waste of time and a money grabber. The top Players end up paying hundreds of thousands of dollars. You will never have the chance to grow and win. The devs dont care about the players. You can’t progress at all if you don’t spend thousands of dollars. The advertisements are fake. The community is very toxic and bullies are everywhere.

### 1/5 — Just trust me

*2026-06-08, version 1.5.22*

It started out great easy leveling then come the money 1000’s of dollars just to be able to complete then comes the devs and fairy’s all AI generated answers but in short they’re a scam pay to play business

### 1/5 — Save your time and money

*2026-06-04*

Epic War lures players in with a mini game that has little to nothing to do with the actual gameplay. What you see in the advertisements is not what you’ll spend most of your time doing once you start playing.

At its core, this is a heavily pay to win game. Nearly every aspect of progression is designed to push players toward spending money. If you choose not to spend, your progress eventually slows to a crawl. Meanwhile, you’ll be matched against much larger and stronger players who can easily overwhelm everything you’ve worked to build.

What makes this even more frustrating is the inconsistency in enforcement. The game has banned players who spent months or years building their accounts, while other accounts that have clearly been sold, transferred, or shared among alliance members continue operating without consequences. It gives the impression that rules are applied differently depending on how much money a player spends.

The community can also become extremely toxic. In game communication is often filled with harassment, drama, and hostility, and the moderation does little to improve the experience.

The biggest problem, however, is that the game seems to prioritize revenue above everything else. Player experience, fair competition, and long term enjoyment all appear secondary to encouraging more spending.

My recommendation is simple, save yourself the stress, frustration, and expense. There are plenty of other games that will respect both your time and your wallet far more than Epic War does.

### 1/5 — Favoritism

*2026-06-04, version 1.5.22*

The Devs on this game put certain servers above all even when they know they are breaking the TOS/account sharing, and ban other players for calling them out on it.
