It could be much easier to say this too if the developers continued to update the damn game! This game still has so much potential after all of these years, there’s still things in Greek mythology to explore as well. Just overall- I want the developers to come back to this game! There’s still people into it as well, take my word for it- please. ### 4/5 — Excelente pero te estancas para descubrir nuevos territorios *2026-06-24, version 6.1.14* Es un juego súper divertido de los mejores de estrategia mítica que he jugado (Después de Clash of Titans en Android) pero te estancas al haber pocos territorios nuevos que te piden mucho dominio. Amplíen más territorios para ampliar el juego y que las ligas sean mejores para participar en guerras por alianzas. ### 5/5 — 面白い *2026-06-15* CXFLWBGIK **Developer response:** Thank you for your review!
