### 3/5 — Tired of this game, make it better

*2026-08-05, version 2.17.1*

Tell the truth. When you say that a new tribe is out, 99 times out of 100, it is fake. Next, we should be able to create custom floors. Also we should have smartness bars so we can directly choose how hard the bots should be. Also in the weekly challenge, the top half, not the top 10% should promote.
Also, increase the number of moves in the ranked 30 move game to options of this many moves:
15
20
25
30
40
50
60
75
90 (not a typo, ninety moves)
100
and set them in separate leaderboards.
Also, can we please produce unlimited warriors? If you send a review to my review, call me Micah or theyurGOAT.

### 3/5 — Money rights

*2026-07-14, version 2.17.1*

Don’t get my wrong, I love this game but now you have to pay REAL money to be able to play as most of the tribes. SSSSSSSooooooo………
(Heart breaks)

### 4/5 — Geiles Spiel bitte mehr Technologien

*2026-07-10*

Es ist ein sehr cooles Spiel aber man könnte es so machen das wenn man alle Technologien freischaltet und dann kommen so 4 bis 6 „Supertechnologien“

### 4/5 — Good game but laggy

*2026-05-28, version 2.16.5*

I enjoy the daily challenges but the game is often very laggy.

### 5/5 — The Best Strategy Game

*2026-05-21, version 2.16.5*

There are many metrics you can use to measure the worth of a strategy game. IMO Polytopia does very well on all of these.

### 4/5 — Great Game but…

*2026-05-19*

I love to play this game but could you maybe add tournaments to this version of the game too?

### 5/5 — Great game, two ideas…

*2026-05-16, version 2.16.5*

I love the game! I like how there’s a city development side of things and a battlefield strategy side too! I just had two ideas that I wanted to suggest. (1) It would be cool if you had the option to set lasting alliances between tribes before starting the game. For example: you could have a dozen tribes go to war 6v6 as two great factions! On the other hand, if you’re feeling gutsy, you could go rouge and have the entire square unite against you! Then afterwards you could finish the game when one alliance emerges victorious! (2) Level maker mode would be awesome! You start with a square made completely of deep sea tiles, and then you could add land, shallow waters, and more! These were just two thoughts that I wanted you guys to hear. Thank you for your consideration, and keep up the good work! :)

### 5/5 — Very fun game but I have a cool update

*2026-05-14, version 2.16.5*

Add modern military equipment have a xinxi and imperious skin called  morden war for xinxi and impious  modern military

### 5/5 — THE BEST

*2026-05-09, version 2.16.5*

I am so addicted to the game SOOO GOOOD!!!!

### 5/5 — Great, Pure Game.

*2026-04-21, version 2.16.5*

This is a great turn based strategy game that is well thought out, consistent, fun, and fair. I would highly recommend this for anyone who likes to have a high skill ceiling.

### 5/5 — Great game, but please add save files

*2026-04-12, version 2.16.5*

This game is awesome for people who like strategy games, it’s fun, you have to think, but it takes a long time sometimes to complete a game, it took me 3 days once, so please add saves. Anyway great game I recommend

### 5/5 — Really good

*2026-04-08, version 2.16.4*

I saw an add for the other version and it was so cool, nothing I ever saw before. Then I had a problem, it cost money to get skins. So when I saw this game I knew Apple Arcade doesn’t have in-app purchases I was so happy. Maybe you could add more paths and tribes, but overall this game is good. Thank you for making this game,

### 5/5 — Nice

*2026-04-06, version 2.16.4*

Pretty much the only game I play because of new dawn. Love it. But could add better tribes in the future.

### 2/5 — I can’t win

*2026-04-03, version 2.16.4*

The other tribes get too powerful too fast and I am fighting a giant fleet of boats and a giant army at once and they keep offering me peace treaties that never work out for me because when I  break it then there army is twise as big as mine so make the limit for armys 7 people plus 1 for every town that they have so if you have 4 towns (capitals don’t count) then you people limit is eleven. (7+3=10 3+1=4 7+4=11) 
And the limit for giants is 5 (juggernauts count as giants) and the people limit can be temporarily increased by having a cloak start a riot and spawn daggers then when all the daggers die the limit goes down to normal. Add a counter in the corner to count people limit. Individual towns have no limit (all people can come from 1 town) population growth instead increasing people limit. And make it so that 3 different tribes stop sending me peace treaties just because they are across my massive size map and I know them but can’t reach them.

### 5/5 — My family enjoys polytopia

*2026-04-01, version 2.16.4*

Me and my dad have really enjoyed this game over the past year or so and I believe more people should play this

### 5/5 — More Strong Elyrion

*2026-03-28, version 2.16.4*

I love to play Elyrion, but Elyrion is very weak, on the early game, when the two polytour die, Elyrion will destroyed easily, please make Elyrion strong

Bad

### 1/5 — So awesome, but make it better!!

*2026-04-25, version 2.16.5*

This is such a great game and I will give 5 stars as soon as you add the option to skip watching the bot make moves one at a time. In the big maps this takes sooooo long and kind of kills it for me. I noticed others are asking for this, please add this!!! :)

### 1/5 — good game, but it keeps crashing

*2026-04-05, version 2.16.4*

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-03-11, version 2.16.1*

*2026-08-02, version 2.17.1*

I’ve been doing playing this game for years and I haven’t gotten bored once! Also, this version lets you get all the tribes for free* which is pretty neat. Anyway recommend this game to anyone who likes any type of 4X strategy game or strategy games in general. *Apple Arcade Required

I’ve played

### 5/5 — Awesome, but two ideas

*2026-07-14, version 2.17.1*

The game is awesome fun great but one idea is that could you make it that you can get more tribes? The buildings are cool, but it would be cool that if you could have a castle sized capital

### 5/5 — 시간 살살녹음

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-06-08, version 2.16.5*

Thank you for this awesome game I love it and thank you for all the updates and other stuff plus who ever that dude who came up with the Viking thing I love it plus main city could be like Valhalla which is well Viking for  the giant battle field in the sky plus there could be an upgrade that when one dies they become like zombies with high health but 0 damage but the ability to explode but a limit like 5 only or else I could think of some ways to make it op

### 5/5 — Incredible Game

*2026-05-27, version 2.16.5*

I got addicted to this game for a while, it’s so good. I leaped with joy when I realized that it was on Apple Arcade. It’s a very simple version of those other turn-based games, and I would consider the game to be a great introduction to turn-based strategy, as the big games are certainly frustrating at first.

Incredible as this game is, there is a lopsided tribe. At first, the worst tribe was Yadakk until they got a +2 star buff. The new worst tribe is also the most expensive tribe, the Luxidoor. They start with nothing and the capital has zero of the benefits that every city has a right to. My solution to this disastrous effect is quite simple–when the game begins, allow the player to choose all the upgrade bonuses that the city would normally get if upgraded on its own. This would boost this worst tribe to one of the best, living up to its title as the most expensive tribe. Please, I beg, insert this solution. Remove all their starting stars if you have to, but they need this.

I also wish that the avatar creator wasn’t randomized, I had to do an incredible number of spins before I got the character I had in mind.

Other than that, it’s a fantastic game, bravo.
