The game experiences significant stability issues, becoming unplayable after the third act due to frequent freezes starting in chapter 4.1. Additionally, user support appears to be lacking, with players feeling abandoned except for a mobile app version that seems focused on monetization.
“The game becomes unplayable after three acts, freezing consistently starting from chapter 4.1. It feels like support has vanished, leaving only a money-grab phone app version.”
“The game is completely broken after three acts, freezing at chapter 4.1. It seems like support is non-existent, and all we have left is a cash grab mobile version.”
“After three acts, the game freezes and is unplayable from chapter 4.1 onward. It appears that support has disappeared, leaving us with just a money-making mobile app.”

Players express confusion regarding the mechanics of gold rewards after victories, indicating uncertainty about how factors like capturing hexes, turn efficiency, and unit outcomes influence the amount earned. This lack of clarity in gameplay mechanics detracts from the overall experience.
“I have not yet figured out the mechanics of how much gold you get after a victory (capturing all victory hexes, finishing in fewer turns, losing or defeating units, etc.), or if it is a fixed amount (but I don't think so).”
