Played it for a while and no tower defence - only resource gathering and village build. Disappointing and deceptive ### 1/5 — Scam…. *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* This game does not play anything like this ad. It’s a scam. I have played this game for a week now twice a day and there’s nothing in this game that even remotely looks like this ad. It’s a scam to get your money that’s it. ### 1/5 — This game will rob your money if you aren’t careful *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* Recently spent 30 dollars worth of speed ups for my town upgrade, I accidentally cancelled the upgrade while wiping my phones screen and all my speedups were gone after. Tried to reach out to the support team but they couldn’t do anything about it. They don’t care about the community so just be careful I hope this helps. ### 1/5 — Please listen *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* THEY WILL NOT LET YOU DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT ONCE YOU MAKE ONE! They will require you to submit documentation. Then wait for a “review period”. I did that. They still wouldn’t let me delete my account. My request always read as “under review”. I was told it would be ready by today. Still not ready. I messaged asking what else I have to do. They said I didn’t renew my request when they approved it, so now I have to start over. They never approved it. They prey on addiction. DO NOT INSTALL THIS GAME! THEY WILL ALWAYS HAVE YOJR INFORMATION! THEY WILL NOT LET YOJ DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT!!! This game starts out really fun. Then it becomes a tedious, restrictive grind that feels like a chore. To start you get to build your city and grow. Then you have to join an alliance. You continue to grow and learn to work as part of a team in the game. Then kingdom versus kingdom battles start. When they start on a server, they are the only thing that matters. You are only allowed to play in very specific ways at very specific times. Everything is about saving resources and sandbagging your progress so you get matched against a weaker kingdom. You may actually be punished just for playing and growing the wrong way. Bullying is intense and nothing is done about it. At worst, someone might not be able to talk in world chat for a day or so if what they say is extremely messed up. The devs won’t help. In order to be competitive, you will have to spend money. I am not saying a few dollars here and there. I am talking thousands if not tens of thousands of USD. There are people who spend hundreds of thousands of USD on this game. The top skin requires you to spend $750,000.00. That is not an exaggeration. That is very real. And there are people who have it. Don’t get tricked by this game. It uses every psychological trick to pull you in and keep you in. It is not healthy. ### 3/5 — Flamedragon Tyrant event *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* I love this game, I got too 200 million power this morning. But, I played FDT (Flamedragon Tyrant) One time, got tc attacked by a max lvl player with over 1 billion power, and lost all my troops, over 200 days worth of troops, gone in 2 minutes. And when troops die in FDT, you lose them permanently? I think the devs need to change that, it should act like Castle battle, where if you lose troops, you can get 80%-90% back. ### 1/5 — False Advertising, Data Mining, and Microtransaction Bait *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* Game plays nothing like the ads or preview videos. The ads and preview video show defending a base collecting gold from mobs, then building towers to increase the rate at which mobs can be defeated. The game is more of a city building sim with time gated build timers with a very limited build queue to encourage you to spend real money to add an additional queue. Add in the typical escalating time gate structure and it quickly becomes clear that this is just a pay-to-win mircotransaction factory. The TOS agreement makes it pretty clear they intend to mine you data and sell it to anyone they can. It might be coincidence, but the three days after I started playing this game, I had 8 spam calls a day when I had almost none before. I should have trusted my judgment when I read the TOS and uninstalled. ### 1/5 — Not what ad says gameplay is *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* nothing like your ad ### 3/5 — Does not look like screenshots and gameplay is different too *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* The ads and screenshots are totally different from the actual game. No live tower defense as the ads show. Misleading atleast for the first Couple of hours I have played ### 1/5 — Littlest *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* Where is the game in the ad? Could play that for hours. A truly idle game. ### 1/5 — Terrible customer support *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* Pay 5k to get concierge customer service that’s no different than regular ### 1/5 — Very very bad *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* So so boring never getting this again took forever to put the email in and the email didn’t even get to us until like three months and it was not worth it. My daughter bought things and not age-appropriate!!!!😡 ### 2/5 — Too rewarding, less fighting *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* I don’t normally leave reviews, but I saw a lot of ads for this, so I decided to download it, it doesn’t play like the ads show, the first few minutes it felt fine to play anyways, but after that, you spend most of your time getting continuous rewards for things you don’t actually understand and there is so much click bait to the store, when you fight a few times, you spend three times the amount of time working in the village and clicking through all the shops ### 4/5 — Good *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* I don’t think this game is good for kids blow 10 because it has chat ### 4/5 — Game *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* Definitely a fun strategic game but sometimes has major bugs but the admin team is quick to fix and you’ll get compensated, hard for a f2p out there but definitely worth a try. The game mechanics are extremely simple a lot of events and more included with different seasons, it’s just like white out survival a money grabber. But overall extremely fun ### 1/5 — Not a tower defence game *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* Misleading ad showing it as a tower defence game. ### 2/5 — You just play to play *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* This game was nothing like the advertisements. There is not deep strategy to follow, it consumes your time by forcing you to click buttons all the time. I have to say though, the graphics and the music is amazing! ### 1/5 — Annoying *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* Way too many adds for this game. If anything it prevented me from ever downloading it ### 1/5 — Misleading and poor customer service *2026-08-30, version 1.12.10* I downloaded h to is game based on the ads which show a simple king vs enemies graphic but the game is far more complex than that. I also tried to login again after a week playing and was completely unable to. Contacted customer service many times and they are slow (12-24h) to respond and completely didn’t read my questions and issues - I suspect cheap AI tool giving the replies instead of people. Tried for 48h to recover my account but keep getting late and unproductive customer support. Do not download and waste your time! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2026-09-01, version 1.12.10* Totally mess, not as shown in ad ### 1/5 — Review *2026-09-01, version 1.12.10* Nothing like the ad 😬🤦 ### 1/5 — Misleading *2026-09-01, version 1.12.10* The adverts for this game are everywhere, I eventually gave in and downloaded. The actually game is terrible and nothing like the adverts. ### 1/5 — Just why.? *2026-09-01, version 1.12.10* The game is nothing like the add. ### 1/5 — Fake ads *2026-09-01, version 1.12.10* Game play is nothing like ads. Predatory game mechanics ### 1/5 — not the game advertised *2026-09-01, version 1.12.10* its more of a town building game. where you’ll eventually need gems bought with real money to pay for things to be built in a moderate amount of time ### 1/5 — Garbage *2026-09-01, version 1.12.10* Not at all like the preview ### 1/5 — Un bon jeu… à condition d’avoir le budget *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* Le jeu peut être divertissant au départ, mais son modèle économique devient rapidement un véritable frein au plaisir de jouer. Dans les faits, si vous ne dépensez pas d’argent, votre progression devient extrêmement lente et vous finirez très vite par vous retrouver limité face aux joueurs qui investissent régulièrement. L’écart se creuse rapidement et, à terme, il devient difficile de réellement profiter du jeu ou de rester compétitif sans passer constamment par la caisse. Pour commencer à évoluer de manière intéressante et avoir accès à une expérience de jeu un minimum satisfaisante, il faut selon moi prévoir un budget d’au moins 300 $ par mois. Et même à ce niveau de dépense, il faut encore faire des choix, car le jeu pousse continuellement à acheter de nouveaux packs pour suivre l’évolution des héros, des équipements et des différents événements. C’est dommage, car le jeu possède de bonnes qualités et pourrait être réellement plaisant avec un meilleur équilibre entre progression, stratégie et dépenses. En l’état, il donne surtout le sentiment que votre capacité à évoluer dépend davantage de votre portefeuille que de votre investissement personnel ou de votre façon de jouer. Si vous cherchez un jeu dans lequel vous pouvez progresser correctement sans dépenser plusieurs centaines de dollars chaque mois, vous risquez donc d’être rapidement déçu. À bon entendeur, bon jeu à tous. ### 1/5 — Not what it’s advertised *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* Game is not what it is advertised ### 1/5 — Game different to demo *2026-08-31, version 1.12.10* Why are these games never the same when you purchase them ? when you play the demo its perfect, get the game and its nothing like the demo.
