It was a fun idle game, but now it’s a massive grind to advance that’s not worth the time. ### 1/5 — Blatant Monetization and Ads *2023-04-29* New update has so many prompts to watch ads all over the game interface, it’s distracting. ### 1/5 — Alright game, over sexualized, not what was advertised *2023-01-14, version 1.4* The game isn’t to bed. But gets boring after a while. Not to mention.. very sexualized their women. Also even if you pic a female character the game treats you like a man. Also.. noticed o.O they are using the Eyes on Me melody from Final Fantasy 8 for the bank thing .__. ### 1/5 — No male companions *2023-01-13, version 1.4* They let you choose the gender of the MC but you can’t switch the gender of the beauties. Honestly might as well just not give the option for the mc. A shame because I actually would be willing to play more if there was a option for male companions. Don’t understand why they didn’t. ### 2/5 — Bootleg Golden Baazar & Trading Legends Copy Cat *2023-02-13, version 1.5* This game is alright, fairly new, very laggy at some points of the game. Golden Baazar & Trading Legends were created by the same company, so there's bound to be similarities between the two, but "Imperial Destiny" was not. If you look at the in game previews of GB and compare it to ID's gameplay, you can see it's a literal copy and paste of the game. Most of TL's events like the naval trading, Salt Saltern (aka Main Street in ID), Suburb and Stage layouts, are exact copy cats from TL, and many more. I honestly prefer the simplicity look in TL, compared to the cartoonish graphics of ID. The only real difference is the era where the 3 games lie; Golden Baazar is obviously set in an "Arabian Nights" theme, while Trading Legends is set in a Ancient China theme, whereas Imperial Destiny is set in a mythological theme. Out of the 3, Trading Legends is definitely the winner, but considering how many strong players are already there, Golden Baazar & Imperial Destiny are alright options for newer players who don't want to be completely destroyed by the OP players of TL. ### 2/5 — Just an copy *2023-02-12, version 1.5* A copy from another game .. and the female character calling me master is weird I only think insecure weirdos play this type of game. Also there is a coin glitch I already used it it makes the game easy ### 2/5 — um.. *2023-01-12, version 1.4* it’s fun to do tasks and the graphics are gorgeous in the beginning, but it can get boring pretty quickly because of its repetitiveness. and even though the character i chose was a woman, the story still addresses me as “sir.” the romantic interests or “beauties” are all women, no men. female characters here only serve for pleasure, and you can’t recruit any for talent or skill. however, this is not what caused me to stop playing. the women in this game are SO sexualized, to the point where you can “save” or “steal” a overtly sexual woman’s clothes. i couldn’t go 10 minutes playing without being bombarded with near naked women. it’s both disturbing and cringey. i feel like the game relies on that to get people to play, catered to young naive boys probably. but it did the opposite for me. so, not a game worth spending time on in my opinion. ### 3/5 — Ded *2023-04-07* Better than that bazaar game but again. It’s dead. ### 3/5 — My review *2023-02-28, version 1.6* Love the graphics of the game but I don’t like if you playing as female that you can’t get male partners. ### 3/5 — Poor network connection *2023-02-15* Game is great and not complicated. Network connectivity is poor. I spend more time waiting for connection then actually playing. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I’m amazed *2024-01-01* How did this pass by the sensors it’s really hard to do something like that ### 5/5 — Pretty fun! *2023-03-07, version 1.6* Simple and good art! ### 5/5 — Girls are beautiful, gameplay is interesting *2023-02-01, version 1.5* Monetization is not too heavy either. Kind of an idle business-family sim. ### 4/5 — Actually a decent game *2023-02-21, version 1.5* Good to pass the time. Definitely a clicker game. Easy game to play, definitely knows how to get you to keep wanting to progress with increasing goals. Family sim type game where you also are a merchant building a town. Oh, and some of the “beauties” literally have their (.)(.) out and about so that’s a bonus. ### 4/5 — Rosa *2023-02-09, version 1.5* The Rosa date animation has a nip slip so take that as you will. Should not be 12 plus --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
