Set up just to try to get you to pay to play. ### 4/5 — Better than average *2026-07-20, version 2026.6.2* Good game but it takes along time to build your fort and army. ### 2/5 — Cost *2026-07-07, version 2026.6.2* Be ready to spend $$$$. If you want to compete. event ### 4/5 — War *2026-06-30, version 2026.6.2* Thanks for game ### 5/5 — Game *2026-06-26, version 2026.6.2* Great game my safe space. Little costly but over great game ### 5/5 — Thanks *2026-06-15, version 2026.6.0* Go Union !! United we stand !! One nation under God !! ### 5/5 — Easy and so far no purchases *2026-06-15, version 2026.6.0* This is a very easy game. Having a great time. Haven’t spent any money yet!! ### 2/5 — Not a realistic Civil War Game *2026-06-11, version 2026.6.0* I would have preferred Union v Confederate action related to historical battles. This is game is not it. I’ll stay with it for a while, but not entirely satisfied. ### 5/5 — Stating day 3 *2026-06-11, version 2026.6.0* Good game so far. Shields are a must in the beginning ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — See a shield on base, I delete *2026-08-26, version 2026.8.1* I was giving this game a try but as soon as I saw the world map and a shield on my base, it’s a delete. I’m not gonna play a game where either I buy constant shields or get attacked by 4k people a day. These pay to play games stink. ### 1/5 — Great potential *2026-08-22, version 2026.8.1* I’ll say there wasn’t a more fun game to play than this game at its peak. The developers got greedy and now it’s very hard to play free to play, even if just trapping. The prison capacity isn’t high enough and there isn’t enough availability to liberation passes to get troops out. You can play 5 years and get killed but it takes too long to rebuild. Game is dying because of this and action is at an all time low of what used to be one of best games around. ### 1/5 — Omg, what a snoozefest *2026-08-03, version 2026.7.0* This game came up under war games and had nothing to do with that. What nonsense. ### 1/5 — Dude *2026-07-29, version 2026.7.0* Fix the damn game you can't click on stuff on the map. Every major update. Get some smarter devs. ### 1/5 — NOT WHAT I WANTED *2026-07-28, version 2026.6.2* I wanted a true experience in managing the plantation and hawking down colored men while they try to escape to eat the rations in there little shed they live in and it didn’t meat my expectations that’s to bad someone hasn’t made a game like this year I’m going to listen to Allan coe now ### 1/5 — The The reality of this company’s practices and operations *2026-07-15, version 2026.6.2* is my final communication with you. I am writing to express my profound disappointment with your unwavering and stringent policies, which show a complete lack of concern for the players who have supported your game for years. I have invested three years, a significant amount of money, and extensive effort into building my main account and fostering a global community of players. Despite my background as a career federal law enforcement officer and civil servant, and my reports regarding a player who made credible threats against my minor daughter—which resulted in me filing IC3 forms with the FBI—your team did nothing. This individual continues to remain active in the game, demonstrating that your platform prioritizes revenue over player safety and integrity. Regarding the suspension of my "PEACE FROG" account, I will not subject my 82-year-old mother, who is currently recovering from back surgery and relearning to walk, to the stress of coordinating with Discover to resolve chargebacks caused by an honest mistake during her hospitalization. Your refusal to offer any grace or manual review in this matter confirms that your interests are purely financial. Please be advised that I am walking away from War and Peace permanently. I will be utilizing my extensive network on Discord, the LINE app, and other social platforms to ensure that the community is fully aware of your business practices and the lack of support provided to loyal players. My mission is no longer to participate in your game, but to ensure others understand the risks and lack of integrity associated with your company. I have no interest in further affiliation with what I consider to be a predatory and unethical operation. ### 1/5 — Pay to Win *2026-07-05, version 2026.6.2* I’ve been wasting my time playing this game for half a year and got into this new state. On the first week of the game they already are at a billion power. Like how am I supposed to compete with that? That’s literally 2 thousand dollars they’re spending so they can become some stupid rally leader. Yeah sure the game is kind of friendly to new players but it would rather have pay to win players that make new players quit than new players joining the community. That’s why this game is failing. ### 1/5 — Update!! *2026-07-01, version 2026.6.2* It’s really getting on my nerves as much as it stops to think and trying to do something is aggravating ### 1/5 — It’s ok *2026-06-15, version 2026.6.0* Why do you say claim gifts when you never provide them ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-05-16, version 2026.5.0* Was enjoying the game until I had an update then wanted money to update, then won’t let me do anything. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — War Civil War *2026-09-02, version 2026.8.2* An excellent look into how everything was in toured ### 5/5 — Game *2026-08-24, version 2026.8.1* Great game ### 5/5 — Gg *2026-08-23, version 2026.8.1* Good game over all ### 5/5 — 2 years and still going *2026-08-21, version 2026.8.1* I started this game from an app to earn cash, I ended up completely hooked to it and that was two years ago. I also never write reviews, but I figured since I use this play this game on a daily, it’s time for me to give back a little. The game is great if you’re strategic and like games that are really in-depth: it does take a bit to learn, there’s a lot to it because there are so many different aspects, but experienced players are more than willing to help new players learn what to do and how to build a fort, train, research, etc. successfully-just drop questions in the world chat or the State chat. If you join an alliance, the, social aspect of the game is really great too. Definitely find a group you like, some can be raunchy/laid-back, others are like sitting at a bar with your bros, some are all 40 something’s or teens or both, etc., just find one you like and one that will teach you what you want to learn. There are lots of options to purchase in app products/packs and they do have some really great deals. You can certainly play this game without spending money, though if you drop some money on packs now and then, you’ll get ahead quicker. You’ll certainly see the difference between players who spend a lot of money versus none. I haven’t spent much at all, though I’ve found all the ways to get extra/free rewards to keep up with some of the bigger players in my alliance. It’s definitely fun if you enjoy an in depth, strategy game with a cool social aspect, good graphics, a lot of battling and a lot of fire. It’s definitely gotten better and better since I’ve started and new events and rewards arrive all the time. And even though a lot of things cost money, (from $1.09 to $299+) there are always events to win some really awesome stuff that is expensive if you are bought it, the devs are pretty cool by doing that imo. In my experience and from what I’ve seen in-game, the devs are more than decent about responding and taking players feedback to put it towards enhancements in the game. Lastly, I have two pieces of advice for you, lol, don’t take this game personal (ever) and Keep your shield up! ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-08-13, version 2026.7.1* Fun game, get ready to spend a little. Frustration sets in with attacks so join an alliance. ### 5/5 — Gas’s *2026-08-10, version 2026.7.1* Fire ### 5/5 — Fun game. *2026-07-28, version 2026.7.0* Great game to by time when bored. ### 5/5 — The best game *2026-07-26, version 2026.6.2* Yes ### 5/5 — Yay *2026-07-15, version 2026.6.2* It’s a decent game so far ### 5/5 — Absolute Cinema *2026-07-08, version 2026.6.2* As a citizen of Mississippi I love this --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
