Great concept, but the execution needs polish. On Android you can't set an avatar (good thing it syncs with Stride), and the overall design feels weaker compared to your fantastic Kingdom GO style. It would be great to have more idle mechanics - 24-hour processes, auto-collection, and fewer repetitive buildings. Also, achievements for capturing new cities and countries would make the gameplay much more rewarding.

I could give this game 5 stars if the bugs were worked out. Solid concept and compelling dynamic really motivated me to run further and more often. I could also give this game 1 star. The game is very buggy. Runs often fail to register, which is super frustrating after a long tiring run. It only works when connected to the internet, and it uses tremendous amounts of mobile data. I hit my monthly data limit in 2 weeks, and this game used more data in those 2 weeks than all my other apps combined.

I deleted the game. It uses a GPS ofcourse, if another oponent enters the same castle you are in, you can see their empire AND the exact location of your opnonent. It's a fun game, but there are only 18 levels. I managed to achieve within a week. It's a cute game. Hoping for more levels. Also, hoping for castles and villages in logical places. Some are in the middle of a freeway
