The monetization strategy of the game has drawn mixed reviews, with many players labeling it a "cash grab" due to the heavy reliance on microtransactions and pay-to-win mechanics. While some appreciate the lack of forced ads and optional rewards, others express frustration over unactivated purchases and the feeling that gameplay is hindered by the need to spend money. Overall, the game's potential is overshadowed by its aggressive monetization approach, leading to disappointment among players who feel it detracts from the overall experience.
- “No ads, no forced in-app purchases.”
- “Fantastic one of the true strategy games for phones that isn't a Clash of Clans clone. Not buggy, not pay-to-win, no ads; it's what phone games should be.”
- “I do like the concept though, but the microtransactions are way too forced at this point.”
- “It's insulting because you have an excellent engine to make genuinely fun, pay once and done games, but you use it for cash grabs.”
- “I honestly preferred 4 more than 6; 5 was a weird take, but even though the graphics are great here, the pay-to-win is way higher. Unlike 4, where you could at least grind, this is just a cash grab where the game is great, but it feels like everyone is getting more buffed but you and your allies, especially in conquest mode.”
- “This game is rigged. No matter how powerful your units are, the enemy always spams them, and they are always more powerful. One of their militia troops had more health and damage than my elite cavalry. This is just a cash grab; it's a shame really, it would be a great game if not for greedy developers.”
