I always love to just get on my device and play some “war of sticks”. ### 4/5 — Awesome *2026-08-13, version 1.0.4* I think this game is awesome, but sometimes I find myself stuck. I would have no more gold to mine and I’m out and lose all my soldiers and forces me to restart. It also annoys me how the endgame is when you get the strong soldiers, like the necromancer and mage. However, this is an awesome game that teaches you strategy and managing your gold.
