Used to be fun. Played for about 2 years. Past few weeks I'm trying to level up which requires saving resources. Metal is so slow to produce. Each day while not logged on, if I'm defeated in battle, even just once, it gives the entire day's portion of metal produced away. Tired of it. There is no sense trying anymore unless you're constantly playing. Uninstalled. Other than that. Great graphics, fun characters, dialog is hilarious.

I really like this game but a few things frustrate me. I feel like the playeres on the map are at a much higher level. I hate the fact that people can come back to life during battles sometimes even 3 times. I have lost many battles that I would've easlily won because players will be dead then come back to life sometimes more than once. The story quests are way harder than they should be. I get stuck for days. This game was really fun at first but now I'm losing patients with it.

One of the main point of the game is to upgrade various parts of the castle and wait for upgrade to finish before starting the next upgrade. However, the clock implemented is just a random number. Sometimes it goes faster but mostly it jumps back and increases the amount of wait time. At first I thought I might have miscalculated the time when castle should have been updated but after seeing it happen multiple times, I have now stopped playing altogether as it is super annoying.

Good graphics, but very pay to win and no customer support. I wanted to unlink my level 40 account from Facebook and Google to start over, but it has been a year and they haven't done anything. Also, when I send an email they either ignore it or send an automated response saying that multiple inquires slows down the process of resetting my account. The process couldn't be any slower. Uninstalled.

The game is fun, and they have interesting incentives to pay for the game, but none of those are towards leveling up. After a character has "trained" over a set time, you physically have to tap an icon floating above its head to gain the level and start the leveling up. Now, after a certain point, as do most pay-to-play games, the game pace bottlenecks considerably. No surprise there. However, I think one feature that would get me to consider purchasing a month would be an ability to leave a character leveling up while I'm not in-game. Of course, the max-outs still apply, but I would hate to have paid for this game and come back a day later to an archer sitting in the training room, only to have leveled up by one level, and then have to wait another 2 hours or more all because I didn't tap the icon earlier.

The initial lower levels are fun and you can advance at a quick pace. That's the good part of the game. Once you advance beyond the lower levels the game a waste. Build quantities required are not possible without spending real money. DON'T PUT ANY MONEY INTO THE GAME. IT'S A WASTE. The Arena matches are possible at lower levels, but you hit a level when you are bottom tier 90 percent of the time. You will have no chance of winning anything and you place twice a day trying to get more points.

Occupied me for a few months, but you quickly need to pay for upgrades if you expect to be even remotely competitive, which made it more frustrating than anything. You can finish the game (the regular map objectives) without shelling out money if you do a lot of ad-watching, but you'll never be competitive enough against other players to finish all the little achievements if you aren't spending real money. And there are players that appear to have spent well over $1000 in this game.

I've seen some negative reviews and that just blows me away. This game is spectacular. It combines the best elements of Fallout Shelter and Clash of Clans and combines them in its own unique way. The graphics look good. Although, if you zoom in on them it's less satisfactory. It's quite fun, although the combat has little player input and less of a focus on skill. Rather, the only control you have are fighters, equipment, defenses, and spells. That's the only thing I would change. Overall, 8.8/10

It's fun, but the game really expects you to be a whale in order to have that fun. It gives you free premium for a few days early on, but when it ran out I realized just how much more playable it actually made the game. It turns into a tedious slog without Premium, and just tries to force you to pay money every chance it can get. Long, incredibly annoying ads for small bonuses, frequent pop ups begging you for money, absurdly long wait times for very early game items with large premium currency requirements to skip, it's all just so so much. It might be ok if the gameplay and story with well done, but the story is really bad, and the gameplay is merely passable. A fun time waster, but little else. I just can't possibly recommend a game that insists on money as much as this one does, it's just all the very negative aspects of Free To Play games.

it starts out ok as a new player, but after a a few times the training begins taking longer and longer. almost half the day just to train two people. which makes it harder to attack the enemy when you have to wait till all your soldiers are trained. and we need at least 3 soldiers just to attack places. so thats a full day of just training before you can even do anything. super boring after a while. not to mention the other resdiants of the castle don't do anything. they just stand around.

I don't know why I still play this game. Out of habit I guess because it's lost the "entertaining" factor for me and has just become frustrating. You must spend money to truly thrive. Playing other games for "free" diamonds hasn't worked for me. Being constantly robbed by other players with 2-3x the squad power is lame. The dungeon set up isn't fun since your "partner" can stall and leave at any time. I'm going to delete and find something else. Again, thanks for the years that I did enjoy!

Money grab, pay to win (bordering on pay to play later on,) little strategic depth, and yet still some how very addictive and fun for a while. Long answer: worth a spin, but don't sink money into this bold-faced cash grab. I'm at a point where there is little content to do that gives rewards, but I need better gear to advance. It has become pay to play at this point. Also worth noting that this game is a rip-off of a medley of other mechanics. Even the art style is ripped off. Somehow the package is relatively fun even though there is no strategic decisions to make once you start battle. Later you get spells, but they aren't usable in Arena PvP and you will use the same ones each battle with no regard for timing

Decent game with reasonable wait times. I stopped playing games with ridiculous long waiting times because I'd forget to even play them. Wait 3hrs for this or that. Noway! This game is cool so far but we'll see as I progress if I'll stop playing it due to wait times. Which if that is the case I'll come back and drop stars on review. Update: the game is cool but it takes ridiculous amount of time to upgrade your things after you get to a certain level. Usually after anything is upgraded past level 3. For example to upgrade my throne room it takes about a week! Of course you can "Pay" for it smh. So instead I'm just going to uninstall because as I said before I cannot play games that have ridiculous wait times. But it is a beautiful game.

Cool take on the Fallout Shelter game. I liked the catastrophes that occur in each room better than Fallout. But, I reduced my review once again because of the huge upgrade times so early in the game and that they are required constantly. After 1 dsy of trying it out, I cannot proceed, I'm stuck. At this point I dont want to proceed. Very confusing which storage to upgrade and its very costly. I prefer to be able to play when I'm ready, not waiting for game to be ready. It would get WAY too costly to satisfy that. Great game ruined by extreme greed and poor build times on the upgrade system. Personally, I also don't think the Clan aspect helps or adds interest or benefit to the game and would prefer Mano e mano.

I've played and enjoyed this game for 2yrs. Overall i had a good experience. Good game to waste time with. The game progression is nice too. The pvp system needs work, the matching needs more balance. The reason i'm giving one star is unfotunately i ran into a design flaw. I was able to purchase an item with level restrictions below my fighting level, which makes the item useless to me. Support said there is no way to refund the purchase. Took me over a year to save up the points.

First off it is a very fun game, basically fallout shelter in a castle. however later on (at least for me) it got very restrictive due to long build times. also the in-app purchases are way too expensive in my opinion. if i could buy an unrestained, no micro transaction version of this for $5 I would be tempted, but I will never spend crazy money on temporary buffs for a game that already makes money off me on ads.🤷🏻‍♂️

Great game so far! Hilarious story and a fairly simple combat. My only issue that stops me from giving it 5 stars is the terrible lag. It only starts lagging once I click on any of the icons, then it starts lagging and doesn't stop lagging for a while. Turning off the sound and music does not help the lagging issue either. At first I thought it was my tablet so I played my other installed apps but they all ran smoothly. *Update* To comply with your response the app would have to freaking work.
