### 1/5 — Донатная помойка

*2026-07-28*

🤬

### 4/5 — Speak dialogue

*2026-06-21, version 1.37.8*

Add voice to the characters. It’s a better interactive experience to hear the characters speak.

### 5/5 — Game nhập

*2026-03-02, version 1.37.1*

Xứng đáng đứng top thịnh hành

### 2/5 — Баг

*2026-02-01*

Не открывает возможность построить плавильную печь. По заданию дошел уже до убить вепря и волчицу.

### 2/5 — Gender equality

*2026-01-11, version 1.36.13*

Great game overall but needs more customization options and can we please get a female character option I’m trying to make a powerful black female gladiator like on the tv show Spartacus house of Ashor

### 2/5 — События

*2026-01-04*

Странно, что события выжимают из тебя все золото и энергию, а взамен ты получаешь очередной шмот, который хуже твоего текущего. 
Сюжет со временем превращается в ужасный гринд, хуже любой ммо.

**Developer response:** Hello! Unfortunately we don't do account resets at the moment, since in order to do that it requires a manual edit to the game's database. We are working on the Google Play and Game Center Cloud synchronization features, which will allow you to reset the game progress on your own indirectly. So stay tuned for that, this feature is right around the corner. For more information you can reach us on our Discord: https://discord.gg/xg6XYzJgJm or via mail: support@colossigames.zendesk.com Best Regards

### 4/5 — Помогите

*2025-12-09*

Где найти медные гвозди??? Уже несколько заданий с ними, но их нигде нельзя сделать или купить или найти. Так же невозможно пройти 2 задания по убиванию волчицы и вепря. Просто невозможно. Так как чтоб сделать новое оружие нужно открытие печи, которая недоступна. Как так??!?!?

### 5/5 — Лучшая игра

*2025-11-04*

Отличная игра, энергия не заканчивается за несколько секунд как в других выживалках, есть много вариантов как ее восполнить, тем самым играть можно довольно долго, различные задания как основные и дополнительные со своей историей, хорошая боевка и различные степени прокачки, большой выбор улучшения своей базы, советую всем данную игру.

### 5/5 — A game fulfill my expectations

*2025-10-19, version 1.36.8*

Very good RPG to fulfill many aspects of my expectations

### 5/5 — Hay

*2025-10-02, version 1.36.7*
