Ratings and reviews

Addictive, but safe to get lost in. Total in game purchases amount to just a few bucks. AI changes as the game progresses. Slowing down the game clock is always an option. Early development stratagy is upgrade castle to max level and train troops quickly. Keep ships building but not upgraded. Plant crops. On Note 10+, it locks up and starts back at last Exit point. I routinely Exit as a Save before zooming screen out. The busier the screen is as I zoom out, the more likely it is to crash.

Great Game. need some contextual info, and the ability to cancel a selection. edit: clicking on a woodcutting tile woulf show the number of wood generated each turn and total generated each turn (5/35) for example. hey! another suggestion: drop down menus.. i hate cycling through "move 1, move 5, move 10, move 20, move 50, move 100, move all" also: some kind of timer that shows time until next "turn" (for production purposes, better planning)

Good interface, good gameplay. Dev suggestions: - It can be annoying to find the last grey square when everything is dead. Add a focus (blinking dot?) to one remaining goal. Any will do. - Speed control. After a while it's too slow. Even just two settings can improve replayability. - AI weak at higher difficulty. Increase RNG that AI will stay in larger groups and that AI will move toward army generators (highest target ports).
