### 3/5 — Potential

*2025-10-10*

Ive known about this game for a while and seeing how its getting updates i wonder why no more content or mechanics are being implemented i have it a three stars for leaving so much unfinished potential

### 3/5 — Nice

*2025-09-18, version 1.10.10*

Cool game it keeps crashing

### 4/5 — The game has potiential

*2025-04-28*

The game could be great, if it wasn’t abandon, if there was a quest mode or an explorer mode where you can actually control villagers in some combat or gather resources this would be fire!

### 3/5 — Game is dope

*2024-08-05*

But everytime I play on my iPhone 12 after roughly 15 mins ? Of playing the game it closes off and kicked me out the game having to restart what I was doing prior of kicking me out. Please fix this it’s quite frustrating when I’m building or sacrificing and then boom ! Game kicks me out and literally erases what I had just built prior of the game shutting down on me.  Once fixed I’ll give a 5 star !

### 4/5 — Bugs and game breaking glitches (Truth)

*2024-02-16*

Game used to be really good I use to play it all the times but left and came back until after awhile of updates the game started freezing, breaking and worse of all not even saving your progress or achievements.

Do not spend money on this game unless you want to find out the things you bought aren’t there anyone.

Im not trying to spread misinformation or anything like that I’m just speaking the truth

Overall it’s a good game just lots of bugs that needs to be fixed ASAP..

### 4/5 — Bueno

*2023-12-25*

Bien pero llegas rápido al momento en el que ya no avanzas jaja

### 2/5 — bug

*2021-12-28*

a tela está cortando com problemas de resolução Ip11.

### 4/5 — All and all good game

*2021-12-19*

I like the concept of having people be sacrificed, along with it being important in your backstory, I do want to suggest a feature however. It being, in the building menu you could click a button, to have a large picture of the map that you have, and then you could change where huts are, the temple and so forth.

### 4/5 — Agreguen el español latino

*2021-10-06*

Muy buen juego solo falta el español

### 4/5 — Puede ser mejor.

*2021-09-03*

Es un gran juego, pero yo creo que haga siendo hora de que le presten la atención que necesita, deberían de bajar el tiempo de espera entre los sacrificios, para poder avanzar más rápido en el juego, y deberían de arreglar eso de que el juego te saca cada que se guarda la partida, igual hasta el audio se traba cuando pasa eso, es muy buen juego, tengo años jugando pero desespera que eso suceda siempre.

### 4/5 — Fix

*2021-08-29*

My saved villages disappear after it crashes and I cant get my saved back after logging in and all

### 3/5 — Crashes constantly

*2021-04-11, version 1.2.3*

Absolutely love this game but it constantly crashes and doesn’t even load on my phone anymore so I can only play via iPad, but crashing every few mins is annoying! Lucky I love the game🤦🏽‍♀️ 😅

### 2/5 — :(

*2020-08-05, version 1.0.26*

Great game but it freezes all the time and I can never progress

### 4/5 — Really cool but needs more work

*2020-07-04*

Love the game let me get that said but I get kick or the game just freezes to fully enjoy the game but if that gets fix’s be really cool game just needs lil more love, free add on n more stuff to do maybe add a romance will a different god like go to war to show your power or make god join u or love u,make one of your followers have your kid then have your kid ruler or something like that make that one of the options besides kill anyways love the game just needs more work

### 2/5 — Slow and buggy

*2020-06-14, version 1.0.25*

This game has a great idea behind it and I enjoy the story and general mechanics. It feels very slow to progress in the game and doesn’t seem to have any idle coding to let you gather resources while you’re away from the game. If either an idle code was put in or you could progress faster in the game without having to purchase things, I would be inclined to reinstall the game. It is also quite buggy and will often crash if I change windows, forcing me to hard close the app to open it again

### 2/5 — Crashing constantly

*2020-05-16*

Its a fun game, but It crashes all the time

### 1/5 — Seriously…?

*2024-01-12, version 1.9.9*

You creators aren’t paying attention to any of our requests. This game keeps freezing and it some how deletes half of the stuff I built. Please fix this. I really like this game. I will give it 5 stars when it’s actually playable.

### 1/5 — Sauvegarde absente

*2023-08-17*

Excellent jeu mais de gros problèmes de crash et de sauvegarde. Je viens de passer 7h non-stop à développer mon village et il a crash. Au moment de relancer, je me suis rendu compte qu’il était revenu 7h en arrière. J’ai instantanément désinstallé, il est hors de question que je perde mon temps à développer quelques chose qui sera réinitialisé au moment de quitter l’application.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2022-11-30, version 1.7.6*

Game crashes ever 5 minutes and loose all progress . Used on multiple different phones , same storey each time

### 1/5 — Perte de sauvegarde

*2022-06-20*

Bonjour je joue le plus souvent hors connexion sur IPad Pro et parfois le jeu crash et me fait retourner a 11 adeptes alors que j’en avais 34! Lassé de cette situation à répétition, j’ai désinstallé!

### 1/5 — Sacrifices

*2020-12-24*

I cant seem to use idols or do any godly powers for my people... My first sacrifice i only got 4 hearts, which i can do nothing with because i atleast need 6 so i waited 8hrs to kill another on of my people.(during these 8hrs i wasnt able to do anything for my people) I just dont feel like anything works. atleast not on my phone, even tho its an iphone 12. Oh well, never needed this game anyway

### 1/5 — iPhone X

*2020-05-02, version 1.0.25*

I can’t play

### 1/5 — Non stop crashes on iPhone X

*2020-03-15*

Cool concept and interesting style. This app looks amazing but so far I have only been able to name my god and tap a few villagers. Like clock work the game freezes 10 to 20 seconds in before crashing completely. One time it did unfreeze after 15 seconds but immediately froze a few seconds later. Judging by the many other app reviews reporting crashes and glitches, this issue has been around for awhile. I’ll keep trying and hopefully get to play eventually.

### 1/5 — Constant freezing up

*2020-02-29, version 1.0.25*

This game would be great but every 1-3 minutes it freezes and you loose your progress since the last save. This has to be fixed but at the moment it’s a train wreck. Please fix it!

### 1/5 — Stability issues

*2018-09-02, version 1.0.14*

Constant freezing and crashing

### 1/5 — Froze my iPad

*2018-07-04, version 1.0.14*

I really enjoyed the game but every time I went on it, after a few minutes it would just exit the game. I waited a while and then tried again and it corrupted my iPad! My iPad is now frozen on the Apple logo page and has been overnight! Need to fix this problem!!!!

### 5/5 — This game doesn’t disappoint

*2026-05-14*

First off, the art graphics and resources that are provided in this game style format is amazing! The developers did a great job with this style of game, I really hope more is added to this game or even another game is released from them that is more of a conquest style but indigenous style lol i recommend this game and just have fun with it!

### 5/5 — A bug

*2025-01-23*

Just wanted to say that the thieves spawn outside the village and can’t be dealt with so I can do any scruffiest and I haven’t made anything to make the weapons so I am stuck.

### 5/5 — My fav game

*2023-04-10*

This game is awesome

### 5/5 — Super 👍🏻

*2022-06-09*

Ce jeux est vraiment trop c’est le meilleur jeux de village c’est comme clash Of clans mais ce jeux me détend comparé à clash Of clans vraiment je vous le conseille fortement ❤️❤️❤️❤️ et moi qui aime la mythologie Aztec incas et maya ce jeu est pour si vous aimes ce genre de mythologie merci ☺️❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — Amazing game, but

*2022-05-10*

First of all I want to say that this is such an amazing game considering that there aren’t many mesoamerican mobile games out there, anyways I think an update to the game should be where the player has the ability to start an army with ranks such as Jaguar, Eagle, etc.

### 5/5 — iphone 12 screen

*2021-12-21*

The game is great ! but i have a problem, can you, please, make an update for the iphone 11-12-13 screen, the interface is not suitable for new phone forms
and the game does not keep moving forward when not playing, can you please change that !

### 5/5 — Great game

*2021-04-25*

The game is an amazing time consumer and overall challenging though I do wish the game was more compatible with the new IPhones the game was made for smaller screens but to have it be more popular among people with the new IPhones the the screen size should be increased otherwise it just feels too out of place

### 5/5 — The games pretty good

*2021-01-26*

I really enjoyed doing my first village really slow and then doing random other stuff in others one thing is the hearts they need to make sacrifices give more

### 5/5 — Black screen

*2020-12-02*

Every time I start to play the game it freezes and turns to a black screen but what I got to play i love it please please fix this

### 5/5 — Muy bueno

*2020-04-04*

No me llamen psicopata pero me gusta lanzar rayos.
