### 4/5 — Review

*2025-02-22, version 2.3.12*

Keeps booting me out of the game. All my other games I play work fine.

### 4/5 — Fun, But…

*2024-12-19*

This game is fun, fast paced and not at all boring. But, for some reason the game kicks me back to my Home Screen every so often. Just enough times to really get me irritated. When I log back in I haven’t lost anything but still..

### 1/5 — ZERO customer support

*2023-04-13*

Iv’e been pl aying this game daily for over 2 and 1/2 years.  TEN(10) days ago I sent a concern to customer support.  ZERO response.  DO NOT download this game …….it is obviously DEAD.

### 5/5 — Amazing Game!

*2022-06-14*

This game is great. It’s actually good and I like that you can actually see the upgrades. I am only level 35 and I have managed to be next to the king. It’s very fair and fun. I would however like if it got less laggy and get rid of the fake sales. You would never sell a 5 dollar thing happen to be 400 dollars off. This is a great game I like it a lot. I would recommend making alliances make more sense It took me half a hour to figure out my alliance member was on a different server. I left a 5 star because this game is a great start and I hope to see updates.

### 5/5 — ZERO support if something goes wrong

*2021-08-13, version 2.3.9*

I’ve been playing this game for a long time…..the top level you can achieve is 200…….I got to level 138.  An entire WEEK ago the game refused to let me enter.  I have contacted “support” almost daily.
NO HELP WHATSOEVER 😡   I’m still locked out.
Hundreds of hours + money wasted on this game.

### 1/5 — Not what I expect from this developer  Shocker :-(

*2021-05-21, version 2.3.8*

I’m about to delete it from my iPad; as, unlike Celtic Tribes and Lords & Knights, it’s totally inaccessable with VoiceOver; as, a blind person; plus, it doesn’t work on an iPad; ‘coz, it won’t even download from the app store #FAIL :-(

### 1/5 — Con artists

*2021-03-17*

Xyrality os a rip off. Take your money then shut down the game with no warning. Shame Apple is so money hungry that they allow crooks like this to run their scams here.

### 4/5 — Worth checking out

*2021-03-08, version 2.3.6*

So far very good. You do need a strong phone or you will lag..  a lot to do. Wish there was new servers

### 2/5 — Potential to be great for blind and visually impaired.

*2020-02-22*

Please make this app fullly accessible for blind and visually impaired using Voiceover. The tutorial shows nothing but an image on the screen and doesn’t read out elements or let you move forward. Thanks.

### 2/5 — The app is not very accessible

*2020-01-10, version 2.3.3*

The app isn’t very accessible when trying to do tasks I have to turn off and on voice over and also get visual assistance. Please fix this
