The prices of packs for the things you need are 99 dollars and it’s loaded with things you don’t need or can’t use. It’s not a fair playing field if your not willing to spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars on the game which make its a terrible experience. Buy a game like civilization not a bunch of in app purchases. ### 3/5 — Demasiado retraso *2026-03-21, version 12.0.2.684* Era un buen juego, teníamos la dimensión DEMI pero la echaron a perder con demasías cosas que agregaron, la cantidad de héroes es grosera, ahora con la dimensión del dragón, llevan el mismo camino, un paquete te cuesta $2400 mamon y no compras casi nada, tendrías que comprar muchos para medio competir, actualmente tiene mucho retraso, cada hora que inicia un evento, el juego se congela y los inútiles que lo administran, no han podido solucionar el problema, en general, el juego apesta ### 1/5 — STEAL PERSONAL INFORMATION *2026-03-07, version 12.0.2.684* The game itself is not a money pit. It’s based on greed by this criminal corporation. They start the game off easy and good value, get you hooked then you end up spending or needing to spend at least $300 a week to keep on top of everything. This is for major wealthy people like trump. Or important doctors and surgeons. This is not for anyone on a low salary. People have been so addicted they have got into serious debts and remortgaged their house to find this addiction. MZ are the drug dealers and it’s players are the addicts. If you play, please quit now. It’s a never needing spiral of doom. Recently I see they are forcing people to accept new terms which are basically stealing every bit of privacy , they want your contacts, your location, your email, your private information to share with other criminal companies. Beware and be warned. Black market got worse and makes the game unplayable ### 1/5 — Complicated *2026-03-03, version 12.0.2.684* I can not make the MZ account work well, please team fix the problem ### 1/5 — Bad game *2026-02-26, version 12.0.2.684* By far the most expensive game and worst customer service of any game I’ve ever played . It’s constantly full of bugs and glitches which Machine Zone never address . When you contact to report an issue you get a bot telling you to uninstall and reinstall , or change your Wi-Fi , anything rather than admit there’s a fault that multiple players in your alliance are also having . People daft enough to have spent a fortune simply destroy everyone beneath them preventing any chance of growth unless you in turn are will to spend a fortune and we are talk in thousands no a couple of hundred ### 1/5 — Addictive Waste *2026-02-25, version 12.0.2.684* This game is created to drain your bank accounts. All you do is spend and really never get to conquer no matter how much you spend. Stay away from this game. Wonder why it has a 2 star rating? I played this about 10 years ago. 20,000 dollars later and have nothing to show for it except a drained bank account! ### 1/5 — Honest, no paid review *2026-02-24, version 12.0.2.684* Since Tripledot Studios took over from AppLovin, the game has gone downhill fast. The frequency of updates has increased to the point where the monthly bonus and jewels are no longer enough to stay competitive. Progress now feels locked behind constant spending beyond the monthly bonus. The developers also keep changing the rules, making it feel like you need to be online constantly just to keep up. It’s becoming almost impossible to balance the game with real life. The cost to remain competitive is far too high, and the direction feels similar to the path the original realms took before major power inflation took over. On top of that, performance has gotten worse. The game lags heavily, and the frustration from constant delays and instability really takes away from the experience. Even more concerning is the amount of cheating. Many honest players report obvious violations, but little to no action seems to be taken. It’s discouraging to play fairly when enforcement appears nonexistent. Overall, the game has become overly expensive, increasingly unstable, and poorly managed. Unless major changes are made to pricing, performance, and fair play enforcement, it’s hard to recommend continuing. ★☆☆☆☆ ### 1/5 — It’s programmed to make you lose *2026-02-04, version 12.0.2.684* This Game gives you very limited options of protection and it keeps pushing you to buy more packages and the warning for any incoming attack is delayed. Also the researchers are systematically programmed to hold your advantage and advance!? ### 3/5 — Question *2026-02-04, version 12.0.2.684* When will the site come back from maintence I will not get able to use peace shield ### 1/5 — Waste *2026-02-04, version 12.0.2.684* More stuff from mz not letting me to login some error dont waste money no more guys ### 1/5 — Trash don't play *2026-01-27, version 12.0.2.684* The company either changed administration or they changed their focus on good gaming. So sorry for how this company evolved into a cash pig. This is pay to win in steroids. ### 1/5 — Me *2026-01-26, version 12.0.2.684* Game is stupid. If you want to play, you better have your pocket book ready. You can only go so far & then you have to start spending hundreds of dollars. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — What they said.. *2026-01-13, version 12.0.2.684* I was just going through my offloaded apps came across this gem.. once upon a time I poured quite a bit of time and real money into this game as it did get addictive and I started to see its flaws in the backend as it was dying off. The greed and the fake ads which I still see on a regular basis. I’m here to whole heartedly support the one star rating movement. No one should be sucked into this dying money pit. ### 1/5 — Gioco Oramai Morto *2026-01-04, version 12.0.2.684* Pacchetti costosissimi per avanzare di migliaia di livelli, ma essendoci giocatori che spendono migliaia di euro al mese di pacchetti è impossibile giocare. ### 3/5 — NON SOLO SOLDI *2025-12-24, version 12.0.2.684* Uno dei giochi migliori a cui abbia mai giocato peccato che se vuoi andare avanti devi spendere migliaia di euro per un gioco mobile, a prescindere non li spenderei neanche sul pc, ma fate prezzi più agevoli e date la possibilità di giocare anche senza soldi, con una buona pubblicità potreste tornare ai livelli di 5-7 anni fa. Meno soldi più player. ### 1/5 — There is no fighting *2025-12-08, version 12.0.2.684* One star ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t get it *2026-08-16, version 12.2.5.697* Great game but terrible developers. You’ll have to upgrade about every 15 days or you’ll burn and loose all the money you’ve invested! Not to mention the price of the packs are $100 dollars and it won’t even do a dent! If you have and addiction to gambling don’t get this game. It’ll ruin your life! The game is engaging but it’ll leave you broke. The game used to be good and fair, but those days are long gone! ### 1/5 — Great concept ruined by greed *2026-08-14, version 12.2.5.697* Played with some great people, very addictive game. Great concept and format ruined by greed. Careful this game will cost you thousands as it is fully and entirely a pay to play format. Newer versions even more designed to rob you. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money/ full of racist people *2026-07-29, version 12.2.5.697* The stuff they advertise to buy never gets you to a point where you’re competitive.. very much a money grab . The prices of packs for the things you need are 99 dollars and it’s loaded with things you don’t need or can’t use. It’s not a fair playing field if your not willing to spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars on the game which make its a terrible experience. Buy a game like civilization not a bunch of in app purchases. The company doesn’t honor its on code of conduct when it comes to sexual harassment/ racism. Hate that I ever played it. ### 1/5 — Jeux nuls 👎 *2026-07-11, version 12.2.5.697* Fortement déconseillé ⛔️. Ne commence pas jouer à ce jeux. ### 1/5 — Useless game *2026-06-05, version 12.2.5.697* Useless game. No support. No help. Only bots to answer questions. I don’t know why they haven’t pulled the plug on this game. I guess some morons still running up they’re credit cards. ### 1/5 — Game full of bugs *2026-05-24, version 12.2.5.697* Game locks up all the time, super expensive, and support doesn’t answer support questions. Beware it’s all about money! ### 1/5 — Must pay to upgrade beyond Level 30 Stronghold *2026-05-22, version 12.2.5.697* Stuck at level 30, as the game requires an item that cannot be obtained outside of purchasing a pack. ### 1/5 — Constant down time *2026-05-14, version 12.2.5.697* I am amazed at how often this game has technical issues with its maker; MZ. Do not spend a cent on this game as you will be disappointed. Constant new upgrades needed (spend money) to stay competitive. This is NOT a free game. No customer service. Will not respond to emails. ### 1/5 — Fim de uma era *2026-05-07* Um jogo que já foi sensacional, onde fiz amizades na vida real e conheci gente do mundo todo, e que hoje é simplesmente impossível de jogar. Nada nele vale mais a pena, e o tanto de $ exigido para apenas EXISTIR no jogo é impraticável. RIP, GoW. ### 1/5 — Game of war *2026-04-20, version 12.0.2.684* If I could give zero stars i would due to this game has gone terribly bad and keeps kicking me out of game the moment i log in and where is customer service when you have questions and concerns please fix to make customer service available and also please fix me getting kicked out of game as soon as I log into game until then this game gets zero star rating dont waste your time and money into such awful game til they fix these problems when you all do I will give a 5 or better star ratings ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — New playes code *2026-05-26* New players use this code for rewards.YLW5 43042 83332 ### 5/5 — Không có gì cả *2026-03-25, version 12.0.2.684* Này đây là game “pay to win”, nhưng không pay không có nghĩa là không thể win nha. Nếu có gì chê á, thì tôi xin phép chê ở đồ hoạ và hiệu ứng nhá. Thứ nhất là đồ hoạ trông vẫn hơi cổ và tối, tôi nghĩ đó chỉ là phong cách, nên ít để ý. Thứ hai là chơi lâu tý hay thao tác nhiều là rất hay nóng máy, thậm chí giật lag văng game. Thứ ba là có một số cái chưa hay cho lắm, đồng ý với việc có thể tuỳ ý chỉnh sửa hiệu ứng. Nhưng không tuỳ chỉnh được hiệu ứng đánh quái vật (monster), cứ nam thì bộ đồ rách rưới với cái búa, với nữ anh hùng thì đỡ rách nát hơn nhưng cũng chỉ một màu nâu với cây giáo cổ đại 🥹 Nói chung chơi game thì có nhóm nên chơi rất vui, còn lại thì chưa dám khẳng định. Trải nghiệm chơi 5 sao, còn lại không biết ^^ ### 5/5 — Good Game *2025-11-06, version 11.14.1.680* Game has gotten so much better ### 5/5 — Génial *2025-10-23* Ce jeu est incroyable, j’y joue depuis 10 ans ### 5/5 — I CANT BELIEVE IT *2025-08-05, version 11.14.1.680* I can’t believe it this game was a great game, it was never meant for broke people that’s why people don’t understand why it was such a great game sure you had to spend a few Pennie’s but the excitement of trying new thinngs was too good ### 5/5 — Normally I enjoy this game. *2025-07-30, version 11.14.1.680* 07-28-2025 the game is currently down, no notification or email. It has been glitchy for a month now. ### 5/5 — Miss the old ways *2025-04-08, version 11.7.1.671* This was a fun game back then but now it’s gotten out of wack wish you they would delete the whole game remake back to its old ways but this game requires tons of money ### 5/5 — Love It *2025-02-28, version 11.7.1.671* I have made so many new friends with this app, and i love the app in general ### 5/5 — Update the App *2025-02-17, version 11.7.1.671* You need to update this app so the game chat functions properly ### 5/5 — Amazing Game *2025-01-05, version 11.7.1.671* This is the the type of game where you can relax and have fun I highly recommend downloading but be aware it’s pay to win this game will take you years to understand but you’ll eventually get the hang of it! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
