Graphics are shaky, and no way of knowing what you need to finish a task. Skip this one. ### 1/5 — Has potential, but fails. *2018-04-01, version 1.0.6* I love resource / time management games. But this one just falls short of the mark. Other reviewers point out the biggest problem: you have a task to perform, but no way of knowing what you need to finish it. (You actually can sometimes convince the game to tell you what you need by pressing on an object but it’s wonky and doesn’t always work.) what do I need to get rid of the ogre? I don’t know...I have to keep collecting stuff until it works! I didn’t even bother with all the free levels before deciding to delete this. ### 1/5 — Horrible game *2017-11-19, version 1.0.6* So many things wrong with this game. Not worth the time and effort. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2017-04-24, version 1.0.6* I agree with other reviews. Do not download, Wait for update. ### 1/5 — Too many bugs *2017-01-17, version 1.0.6* The game has potential but needs some work. The movements are so jumpy and it takes multiple taps for the game to register that I'm selecting an object. As you continue tapping the object the screen begins to zoom in and out. I agree with the other review that it could be a good game. Also there's no way to know what you need to complete the tasks. You either get a green check mark or a red x but the game doesn't tell you what you are missing to complete the task or building. ### 1/5 — In Service of the Queen *2017-01-15, version 1.0.6* It has the potential to be a good game, but needs a lot of work. In the very first level, on easy, it won't let you pick up the boulder, so you can't even finish the 1st level. You also can't set up the next task, you have to be done with one task for you to mark your next task. It also doesn't let you know what you need to do a task. So if you want to build something, it won't let you do it, but it doesn't tell you how many resources you need to complete the task. ### 2/5 — Crashes *2020-01-12, version 1.0.6* Needs a serious fix asap ### 2/5 — Can’t plan ahead *2019-12-12, version 1.0.6* I was looking forward to this game but it is impossible to make a strategy if you can’t see how much of your resources buildings, holes etc are going to cost! ### 2/5 — Not great *2017-01-17, version 1.0.6* I could not get past level one as I just kept collecting with no idea how many resources I needed. I lost interest . sorry. ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it! *2019-08-14, version 1.0.6* Love this game, if you love Roads of Rome type games you will love this. It seemed a bit basic at first but once you get going it is great. My only criticism is that its hard to see how many resources are needed to remove things. ### 5/5 — Fantastic Resource Management Game *2017-11-26, version 1.0.6* They don’t seem to make them like this anymore and I sure wish they did. This is a great example of the genre. First half of the game relatively easy to get all 3 stars. Second half is like a whole ‘nother game and it is more challenging. Have had NO glitches, just hours of fun game play. Hope they come out with a follow up to this one soon! ### 5/5 — Good game *2017-04-27, version 1.0.6* This a good TM game. It didn't work properly and was very annoying to play on my iPad mini. I retried the game once I got the iPad mini 2 and it worked brilliantly. You get the first 43 or so levels for free. There were no annoying ads at all through the whole game. Some levels were had to get 3 stars. To find out what resources you need...just hold down on the object or item and it tells you what you need. Over all this is a very good TM game ### 4/5 — Help *2019-07-26, version 1.0.6* Fun. ### 3/5 — Rip off *2021-04-19, version 1.0.6* Really loved the 44 free levels so paid £4.99 to access the rest of the game which was only 25 levels!! Not impressed. ### 2/5 — Good intentions but failed *2017-01-15, version 1.0.6* So excited for a new TM game but this one is a huge letdown. Slow to load. Game is quite jerky with multi tap. And no idea how what & many resources are needed for each task. You just have to keep collecting. Very poor compared to other TM games. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
