### 4/5 — More cities please

*2026-08-11, version 5.0.6*

Would be great if we could have a mid European city added

### 3/5 — Good concept but buggy

*2026-07-14, version 5.0.4*

I enjoy the concept and gameplay a lot but some bits are frustrating. 

The game sometimes won’t tell you information like the conditions for upgrading high quality housing. The crises are also super annoying bc they can reset production to zero without any way to stop it. Lots of translations are also bad/not done. 

Feels more like a beta version than finished.

### 3/5 — Дошла до 25 уровня и все слетело

*2026-05-02, version 4.0.19*

Дошла до 25 уровня и все слетело

### 4/5 — Love the game

*2026-02-05, version 4.0.18*

### 2/5 — Full of bugs

*2025-09-29*

Can seem to find a way to delete the city

### 3/5 — servers

*2025-05-14, version 4.0.13*

the last time ive played this game was back in 2023, and when i did, the american servers were down. then the servers being down was new and the devs were actually workings on the game still. i come back 2 years later to see that the servers are still down. and is anyone else not connecting to world chat anymore?

### 1/5 — Version française

*2025-02-18, version 4.0.12*

Version française ???

### 3/5 — Decent

*2025-01-11, version 4.0.12*

The game started crashing when I tried the non guest game

### 1/5 — 開發冇錢維護

*2024-11-16, version 4.0.12*

長時間斷 開發商真的冇錢了

### 4/5 — Cannot log in. Cannot download again

*2024-10-17, version 4.0.12*

I cannot log in. I removed it and try to download again but is not working.
Is this game still working

### 1/5 — trash game

*2024-10-16, version 4.0.12*

same legion can fight over world resources. while resources in the map are limited. resources to upgrade if not exploited from the world map then all possibilities from lv28 are impossible.

### 1/5 — Sim empire

*2024-10-14, version 4.0.12*

I want to play on Aztec in Sim Empire everyone is playing Aztec but when I click on it it says reserve and it's been that way for a long time so how long is it going to be on reserve!

### 2/5 — Review

*2024-09-20, version 4.0.12*

Game is to hard to build. You do not allow enough materials to be mined. Then takes longer to make it in to building material. Allow us to make more lumber,copper,stone and clay. You do not produce what you need. They want you to spend money on resources you should be able to mine. You need to learn how to count i prduced 3 cooper mines and only go 50 ore. Good to see you read and care about what people say.

### 1/5 — Nicht zu gebrauchen

*2024-09-16, version 4.0.12*

Nach Neustart oder Besuch von Gegnern sind regelmäßig Gebäude verschwunden, die man gerade noch gebaut hatte. Sehr frustrierend. Eine vernünftige Sicherungsstrategie wäre sinnvoll, aber so etwas kennen die Entwickler wohl nicht.

### 1/5 — Поверніть гроші!!!

*2024-08-27, version 4.0.12*

Придбала цю гру декілька років тому, не грала, сьогодні є час під час відключень світла і вирішила зайти, а гра не працює!!! Її вже просто нема! Поверніть гроші!!!

### 1/5 — “Delete All Civilizations” Locked Me Out of My Account

*2026-07-14, version 5.0.4*

I purchased the China Civilization DLC just a few days ago and barely had a chance to play it. I used the “Delete all civilizations of this account” button because I thought it would let me start over. Instead, my account was permanently locked with Error xx003. Customer support simply told me to create a new account. Am I really expected to pay for the DLC again? This is completely unacceptable. There should be a clear warning before this action. I wish I could upload the email I got from customer support.

### 1/5 — Such a waste of time

*2026-05-17, version 4.0.19*

Unable to reach level 9 since it requires grain stall which only be built once you’re in level 9. You will have no other choice but paying money to buy diamond to skip to level 9. Deleted the game

### 1/5 — Error

*2026-02-03, version 4.0.18*

White screen

### 1/5 — Aztec still locked for task mode why?

*2025-10-16, version 4.0.15*

Why is the Aztec civilization still locked? If you want to do task mode you can only do Aztec if you want to do sandbox. Why is that?

### 1/5 — Do not buy!!!

*2025-09-28, version 4.0.14*

I deleted my content and now cannot play. I get the message: “seems there is a problem here, which may be caused by the internet.” “Your question has been submitted and we will deal with it as soon as possible.” There is nothing wrong with my internet and I did not submit a question, I assume they mean an error code. I agree with other reviews in that I would like to access the content I PAID for. Some other reviews were written months ago which doesn’t give me hope that they will “deal with it as soon as possible”.

### 1/5 — 回鍋玩很多BUG,而且世界頻道一直連結錯誤，更新好後我在改評價

*2025-08-17, version 4.0.13*

回鍋玩很多BUG,而且世界頻道一直連結錯誤，更新好後我在改評價

### 1/5 — Aggravating

*2025-08-09, version 4.0.13*

This game has bugs and is made for you to spend real money on in order to advance the game. It’s sloooooow and it has bugs that keep you stuck on levels with no real helpful guidance. You can’t even google much about this game from the makers with any sort of directions. It’s a scam game don’t bother.

### 1/5 — 为什么老是显示没网络，我其他app都能用啊，到底是为什么

*2025-07-10, version 4.0.13*

到底为什么

### 1/5 — cannot access america server

*2025-04-19, version 4.0.13*

A couple of weeks ago, I deleted all my games civilizations using the user settings. Since then, I’ve not been able to use the America server and I get an automated response which says it’s been reported. I have paid for content on this game and I would like to be able to access it. I would really like this fixed as I really enjoy the game.  when I play on the other servers that I can access my DLC’s that I purchased are not available to me

### 1/5 — Aztec still locked for task mode why?

*2025-03-26, version 4.0.13*

Why is the Aztec civilization still locked? If you want to do task mode you can only do Aztec if you want to do sandbox. Why is that?

### 5/5 — 問題

### 5/5 — 太好玩了

*2024-09-27, version 4.0.12*

### 5/5 — Best

*2024-03-14*

One of the best simulation games I have played

### 5/5 — 好棒

*2024-01-12, version 4.0.12*

我覺得真的很好玩，但是我之前的有同時玩兩個波斯，結果現在改了，不能同時玩兩個波斯，之前很強的那隻波斯帳也隨之消失了🫠

### 5/5 — Flashback issue on iPad

*2023-07-17, version 4.0.11*

I hope fix version on iPad used, because has flashback issues!

### 5/5 — Great Game!

*2023-06-08, version 4.0.11*

I have been playing it for a month. It grows me back to Zeus from Sierra. A couple of feedbacks:
- That would be awesome if you could change civilization anytime (buildings look different)
- if there was no wait when you move a building
- Graphics are more than enough, would be cool to be able to zoom out even more
- Maybe create bigger maps?
- When visiting another city, you can’t select buildings to see what they are or their coverage zone

Fantastic work!
