Game takes your money , no support, no help, and matches you with over power clan !!! It’s a pay to play game I get it but this one is the horrible!!!!

### 2/5 — Not what you expect

*2026-02-12*

Turns into a tower defense game after the five initial levels of the draw to protect the dog one, played it for a little and it doesn’t seem you can go back to the original game.

### 3/5 — Advertisement?

*2025-12-30*

I do actually like this game. There is a lot to do. You have to castle, heroes, a dragon you can upgrade and utilize troops of up to 4 heroes and their garrisoned foot soldiers, go out into the world and smack monsters for upgrades.

The dog protection from bees is nice to gather some materials. You have to do a gauntlet of protect your dragon with your heroes to unlock more levels which that in itself can be fun.

However, I have never seen this scythe slashing mini game anywhere on here so I don’t know why it’s advertised as such. It’s non existent on here. 

Honestly if they just stick to what it is the game does and how you interact with it, I think they’d get a larger player base interested. 🤷‍♀️
