    The graphics of the game have received widespread praise for their charm and aesthetic appeal, often described as cute, colorful, and smooth. Many users appreciate the low-poly art style and unique designs of the tribes, noting that the visuals enhance the overall gameplay experience.

    • “The graphics are adorable.”
    • “They just couldn't make a proper game so they just worked on the graphics and still I don't think the graphics are good.”

  • gameplay322 mentions

    The gameplay is generally well-received, praised for its engaging mechanics and strategic depth, reminiscent of popular titles like Polytopia. However, many players express frustration over the limited free content, with numerous tribes locked behind a paywall, leading to repetitive gameplay and a desire for more diverse features such as multiplayer options and unique mechanics. Overall, while the game offers solid gameplay and appealing graphics, it suffers from a lack of variety and accessibility due to its monetization strategy.

    • “Fun turn-based strategy game with good graphics and gameplay.”
    • “The gameplay is smooth and efficient.”
    • “I absolutely love this game with its cute animation and strategic gameplay; it's nice for a quick break every so often.”
    • “But I do need to point out that the gameplay can be really frustrating!”
    • “Gameplay gets repetitive and sort of dull, especially on the larger maps, and the higher difficulties just stall the game out to long lengths.”
    • “The paywall is ridiculous and the gameplay doesn't last very long after you download.”
  • monetization162 mentions

    The monetization model of the game is generally well-received, with many players appreciating the absence of intrusive ads and the option to watch ads for rewards. However, there is significant criticism regarding the reliance on in-app purchases to unlock additional tribes, which some players view as a cash grab that limits gameplay. Overall, while the game allows for enjoyment without spending money, the heavy emphasis on microtransactions for content is a common point of contention.

    • “No ads as yet, and I'm enjoying it enough to consider investing in some of the additional tribes, which is impressive, because I rarely go for in-app purchases.”
    • “Fantastic game with great gameplay, charming artistic design and one of the best monetization models I've seen.”
    • “I appreciate the no ads and no pay-to-win elements in the game, but paying for each tribe seems a bit steep for me.”
    • “2: tribes that can only be purchased with microtransactions is a blatant cash grab and ruins the game's progression.”
    • “It's a good game overall with many mechanics but only 3 playable tribes from 8 is overkill; I mean you can't even play against those let alone with them, they should be unlockable somehow through grinding.”
    • “Great game, but it's too expensive to unlock all tribes; you only can have 3 tribes without in-game purchases.”
  • story101 mentions

    The reviews indicate a strong desire for a more developed story element in the game, with many players expressing disappointment over the lack of a campaign or narrative progression. Users suggest that the addition of storylines, cutscenes, and mission-based gameplay could enhance engagement and replayability, as the current quest system feels repetitive and insufficient. Overall, while the gameplay is appreciated, the absence of a compelling story is seen as a significant drawback.

    • “Your game is quite interesting; however, it could use some story dialogue cutscenes as you progress through the game, depending on which faction you're part of and which political moves you make. It could use some political branches where you can make allies with kingdoms and certain laws.”
    • “I would definitely pay around $3-5 for a story campaign, mission pack, or something along those lines.”
    • “This game is super nice, but I think it has so much more potential, for example: online gameplay, more of a storyline campaign, or just the ability to play with your friends. All in all, a really good game.”
    • “There's no story and no real reason to advance.”
    • “Zero story, campaign or progress.”
    • “Even if you do spend, you will quickly get bored as there are limited missions, zero storyline, and zero replay value.”
  • grinding32 mentions

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive and tedious, particularly when it comes to unlocking new tribes and units, which are often locked behind a paywall. While some enjoy the challenge and strategy involved, many express frustration over the slow progression and high costs associated with in-game purchases, leading to a sense of stagnation for free-to-play users. Overall, the grinding can detract from the enjoyment, with several reviewers suggesting that improvements could be made to make content more accessible through gameplay rather than monetary investment.

    • “The scoring encourages extra grinding for points after winning, which is a shame, and it is a real missed opportunity that there's no multiplayer or ability to create custom scenarios.”
    • “It's a fun game, it really is, but you are stuck with 3 tribes, and there's only 3 of like 13 others you can even buy with in-game currency (and 10k gems), so at this point it's just grinding to try to get a couple hundred gems at a time and getting the daily amount the game will give you.”
    • “Game is great but the grinding you need to get other races is too much; it also needs PvP!”
  • replayability29 mentions

    Overall, the game's replayability is a mixed bag; while some players find it enjoyable and engaging, particularly at higher difficulty levels, many express disappointment due to a lack of variety and limited playable factions without additional costs. The absence of multiplayer options and a campaign mode further detracts from its long-term appeal, leading to a consensus that, despite its fun gameplay, replay value diminishes after several sessions. Players hope for future updates that could enhance diversity and replayability.

    • “Great replayability, lots of tribes with unique features, units, and guardians.”
    • “This game has a relaxed learning curve and the AI is balanced. Great replayable value as you can get new units via gems to differentiate tribes and tactics. Highly recommend. Haven't stopped playing for the past 3 months.”
    • “This has got to be one of the most interesting and replayable strategy games on the market.”
    • “I love the game, but its replay value is low. I think you should be able to unlock the tribes without using real money.”
    • “I gave it three stars for the fun of the game, but it lacks so much replayability at a certain point.”
    • “The lack of variety means the replay value hits a serious plateau.”
  • music23 mentions

    The music in the game is generally praised for its beauty and uniqueness, with each tribe featuring its own distinct soundtrack, enhancing the overall experience.

    • “The game itself is great, great music, great gameplay, great graphics.”
    • “Each tribe has its own music.”
    • “Amazing artwork and fitting soundtrack, all held together by simple, yet fun gameplay.”

    • “Almost exactly like Polytopia, but with pretty graphics, less game options, and a redundant soundtrack.”
    • “The music is pretty but there's only 4 songs, please make more!”
  • stability9 mentions

Overall, the stability problems have led to comparisons with other games, with some players recommending alternatives due to these persistent glitches.

    • “Downsides: 1) it's buggy and doesn't load at times and hangs sometimes when you use special skills or when you summon mercs.”
    • “Nearly every match glitches one of your late moves after you've already wasted 30-45 minutes, and there is no way to change the course back in your favor without using a booster.”
    • “Literally unplayable, game freezes upon trying to start a new game.”
  • optimization8 mentions
