No I don’t have an incentive to write this...
But I too, was/is a beta tester for this game. For real though, I LOVE IT! I love the friendships made! LOVE the community, even the realm idiots (yes, of course there’s always a few of them) 😂 the Dev team is also REALLY hands on. Of course they can’t make everyone happy and give everyone what they want, but they do listen to the majority of the players that leave feedback about anything. Also, duh, if you want to be THE literal strongest player of the game, it’s gonna cost some $$$, but I honestly haven’t spent very much, maybe $130usd in the 7 months I’ve played? Anyways, the game is awesome. It gives you some stuff to look forward to, and my main reason for always going with an ATA game is because of COMMUNITY (&& the FAMILY && RELATIONSHIPS) you build within. I HATED war games before this came out. Couldn’t stand them. This is totally different with bold, bright colors and lots of humor. You won’t be disappointed!!
Great game with real rewards!
Stopped playing these games because at some point it takes to long to build or research and while that is still true here the unique (at least to me) reward system allows you to earn the key game currency in amounts that will actually help you along and this is non stop not special events that are few and far between. And my favorite part of this system is the how you and your clan are always working together every thing you do as well as what each member does is shared regardless of your level or there’s. I’ve advanced faster in this game faster then in any game of type and it may seem like every other game it is not it’s worth a try just to find that out. This is the only game I’ve ever rated this high and for good reason and even though I’m not adverse to a bribe for an extra star now and again none of that happened here straight rating with no bias.
Love the game, but..
I’ve been playing off and on for about a year now. Finally found an active clan to be a part of. Very helpful and resourceful. However, I keep being targeted by the same 2-3 players over and over again and attacked. I can’t possibly grow my city and defend myself when they keep attacking and stealing the ore I need! It’s insane. I wish there were a way to block people. I can’t afford spending money on gems all the time to buy shields as they expect you to. Not only is that not economically possible, but it’s kind of silly to expect. My clan can only do so much as well. I can’t spend every waking moment defending myself either. I have a job and school, ya know. It kind of defeats me and keeps me from playing except to send my clan the daily brews they ask of us. I get that it’s pvp, so don’t give me that song and dance. But being targeted over and over? It’s extremely ridiculous. And expecting me to constantly spend money to protect myself? Even more ridiculous. Other wise, fun, silly game that IS enjoyable.
I feel like this is pay 2 win
So I have played this game a lot and it can be pretty fun but when you start getting to the higher ranks there is so many pay 2 win players everywhere and my father loves this game but he can’t really have a good time sometimes because there’s so many offers with like buy this or buy that blasting his phone and you can’t really progress with spending a $20-$100 and there is a lot of people who bully you and flex the things they got with the large amounts of money they spent and when I started to play because my father got me into it and I notice there was a lot of bully’s, out of nowhere some town hall 25 was attacking me a 18 town hall and I lost months of resources and grinding just like that to a bully and pay 2 win and started taunting me like “you trash kid and you are so bad this realm is to big for you get out of it” and I was pretty sad but it’s just so hard to upgrade without spending money to get your upgrades faster and I was really like wow so you want me to spend $20 just to do one upgrade and after when I become bigger it’s gonna be like where’s the $100 to upgrade that one thing like that farm or something. This was my experience and I really hope you had a better experience than me and thank you for taking the time out of your day to see me review this game thanks and have a wonderful day ;)
Not for me
I can honestly say that these mobile war games are both fun and addicting, but therein lies the problem I have with them...if you are not careful you will end up wasting money and be left ultimately feeling let down. If you are going into this game for the first time and think that your $25-50 investment will give you an edge you are now advised it will not. Even if you can make it into the top clan initially it will only BUY you so much time and progress before those with endless pockets merge in and you become expendable. I thought since this was a more recent release that it might be different. Nope! Same design...same offerings...same shady behavior by the top players. I escaped only down $50 and I will not be joining any other mobile games from this point forward. Start reading and get to living life outside the mobile environment. It is exactly like others have said...Vegas on mobile. Free to play mobile gaming that is unforgiving in its ability to lure you into spending your money ($5-20) for what equates to a single chess piece for a chess game that requires all pieces to be competitive. The social aspect is great, but it doesn’t make up for the p2w format.
Money is King
I love building up my city, until it gets to a point where everything costs a ton of resources, and insane timers. I know every other game gets this way as it goes along, but there’s not a way for a small player who just wants to learn the game and not spend their weekly paycheck to catch up. Yes realms are divided, but whoever has the right amount of cash to throw at the game will be over 1b might in a week, and that player can just as easily attack lower level players with no penalty or restriction. “Competitive” (very big players who most likely spent thousandths to grow insanely large in a brief amount of time) clans will zero others for no reason other than to flex their muscles outside of kill events. Case in point, I had an elder account and got a small account in a younger realm. The leader in my new realm managed to surpass my might-which took me over 6 months to build spending a reasonable amount-in less than a month just paying for stats. Players who know nothing about the game, but can build insane might overnight and get bored and go hunt others. Unfortunately what other players have stated is true, now I don’t spend or spend the bare minimum knowing it can all be destroyed in a couple of hours if I run out of shields. So yes it’s fun to build, but if you don’t plan on spending an insane amount of money, you won’t be on any lb ever just based on hard work and learning the game. Cash is King.
Pretty fun but needs balance changes
Currently as it is, it’s pretty fun just building up your little city, but this game really needs some “balancing”. With all the recent updates, it has focused on the strongest growing much stronger - and the weaker not being able to even grow close. As well (as many others have pointed out), there’s a system of troop kills, and it’s easy and incentivized for the top people to “zero” or kill every troop of lower players. This gets really annoying since people lose almost 3-4 months of progress and the attacker didn’t lose anything. I feel like there needs some changes in higher town hall people attacking lower ones, similar to how you do it for slaughter events - maybe make it so attacking requires energy, and for each town hall lower you attack, it requires more energy. This makes it so higher players will need lots of energy to attack someone around 5 town halls lower, but now have to fight each other to get troop kills. As well, I am pretty sure people wouldn’t mind using 100 brew or something to attack someone lower but get tons of loot (so it’s still incentivized to attack over cap people). Overall this ganne is great, so keep up the good work, but please take the pleads of the lower might people! Thanks!
Newest update
Had to go get family to evacuate and because I didn’t live in Florida they wouldn’t give a shield which resulted in zeroing. Then after requesting a restoration of account it accommodating a refund of lost power. Really couldn’t be bothered with some lame excuse as they were sorry they just didn’t want to do it. Then with the new update pushed the cost of restoring troops doubled which even if your lucky maybe you’ll have 2 full marches of Huntresses in 2 months if your lucky cause they dropped the gems rewards for mobs. Now in my realm they Zero because they are bored everybody has done research and just mining gold all day and participating in events. Then when you do participate in events they take away your points and don’t refund you at all. The game glitches and they give you lame rewards generally across the board instead of what you actually did. Too many times they stole points away because they decided they didn’t make enough money making us purchase keys or points for reward tiers. All in all they have ruined the game for players who just want to have fun. Letting the credit card warriors bully anybody else that’s just playing for fun. Not listening to feedback from players while filling their pockets with money from events. Not understanding we are the reason why you make money and being appreciative of your customers. To me it’s just a money grab on their part. Without thinking of customer service first.
Tantamount to Cyber bullying
This game is good until you reach a point then each realm has its own version of cyber bully or bullies the creators when brought to their attention they blow you off and say it's a PVP game and continue to condone and foster this attitude in the game being "Zeroed out" is the best cyber bullying method employed by these groups clearly the creators of this game after so many hits in an hour could auto shield a kingdoms to slow this process but clearly this is not an option they have wanted to explore because they want people to buy everything. Very discouraging game don't start it so you won't be disappointed I was hooked early but through the growing process have been Zeroed several time in different realms so it seems no place is ok to grow even when you spend real money you still get beat down. DONT PLAY THIS GAME Our clan was In A hive the developers refuse to deal with this in a fair way like slow Down the zeroing process with shielding a player for 2 hours after so much loss it's very disheartening to lose all your hard work and money invested in a 30 minute time frame. when the bullies feel like hitting not during and event but when they they feel like it. you can see by the developers response they won't fix this thus they condone the bulling of other players even if they are in a hive. again DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME you will only become disappointed.
Fraudulent Company
They don’t tell you until you’ve played and spent money or spent time that they merge the games realms in a brilliant manner. They merge weaker players realms into stronger players realms. So if you are say in realm 120 you started playing after realm 119. But they merge 120 into realm 119. The players in realm 120 just get beat up on. Sure it’s fun if your from the stronger older realm, but not if you were in the younger weaker realm. Had they told players they did this upfront, 90% of the players wouldn’t waste their time time playing this game, spending money in this game. So they don’t tell the players anything until a month or so into your playing time. That’s fraud. Kind of a bait and switch. Your getting used to the game, feeling comfortable and they take it away from you. But it’s ok, cause they have TOS rules which protect them. When you try to talk to them about it, they simply say they have given you enough notice. If your not happy you can move to a different realm - a much older realm - translation a much much stronger realm. Which makes no sense at all. Either they have never played their own game, are just stupid, or clearly don’t care about their customers. I think it’s all three. It’s an easy fix, don’t merge stronger players with weaker players or allow the weaker players some kind of fighting chance by giving them some kind of advantage to help them.
Update ruined the game
I have played this game ever since the beta and it has had many bug fixes some good and some bad, there are quite a few bugs that have been neglected like the game will randomly crash, the game lags when a clan is hitting you and most recently servers constantly crashing and the game locking you out at unfortunate times. But this recent update is the worst of them all. I am a f2p player and this update ruins my ability to play this game and have fun while playing it. The nerf on monster slaying has destroyed my chances of ever gaining enough gems to speed up my researches and buildings. The cost of speeding up researches has destroyed my chances of ever being able to build quickly and the update for brews being cheaper is ineffective since not a single f2p player will ever be able to afford the brew as the game now unbalanced as hell. Overall the game has been nerfed by about 80% slaying monsters will give you a small fraction of what you used to get e.g. level 8 monsters used to drop 246gems now they drop 46gems, the cost of speed ups has tripled and in addition to that the cost of upgrading buildings and speeding research has increased 10x it’s normal amount. Don’t play this game unless your willing to dump thousands of dollars just to play it...and even if you do dump your money into it just know that the game will eventually be nerfed again.
It was alright but player support is trash
Pretty good game. Mainly there for social and the basis is basic but they give away a lot for even a f2p player to have a chance at the top charts. Main issue is the support as it could be more responsive and have more of a checks and balances system in play as there are players who’d name themselves something offensive or speak a certain way but will only get a light ban via, realm chat or silencing. Others like me apparently get permanently banned with no reasoning or say so as to why, not any way to properly contact the devs about such. It’s a good game but be a bit wary of its downsides I guess. Update: Never received a single word from the devs as to why my account was permanently banned. The website claims there is no appeal but I’d expect at least an explanation as a consistent daily player of the game. I refuse to restart the game with a new account, play for weeks upon weeks, spend money, be placed in a whole new realm, just to be merged into an older one that’ll run all over me as a player again. To top it off, not in the mood for spending all that time just to be randomly perma-banned all over again. Thanks for an empty app that i can’t even play anymore. Definitely a delete after how poorly things were handled.
Don’t spend money!!
I’m gonna start off with saying most aspects of this game are great. Most the time you have a great community. There is enough content to keep you busy but not feel overwhelmed and the game is genuinely fun, again most of the time. There however is and has been an issue that the developers just ignore and pretend will fix itself, that clearly won’t, which turns a game that is incredibly fun quickly to a sour taste in your mouth. The issue I am referring to is griefing. Currently the system promotes griefing with a “TROOP KILL” leaderboard and the easiest way to get these kills is to wait until players go offline and attack them repeatedly until you eventually kill troops. All of this just causes players that are enormously high players to attack players much smaller. The developers allow this too! They sit ideally by while most of the player base is bullied by a select few players. The features implemented to curb the assaults merely delay the inevitable, you will be farmed for your hard earned troops and there is nothing you can do about it. It has definitely ruined this experience for me. Don’t be a fool, like I was, and spend money on this game.
Good Game, Awful Vendor Support
Gameplay for this app is pretty good. The game scales nicely enabling you to grow without having to spend excessively (or at all if you choose to). Rewards and freebies are prevalent and the game has nice visuals. There are some issues however. The game seems to have far too many glitches for an app that’s been around for a while. One glitch in particular took me completely out of the game. Apparently my name (which I have been using the entire the this game has existed) suddenly became invalid. Since it was an invalid name I was unable to receive in game messages and notifications which led to my account being zeroed and I was completely unaware. Apparently my clan mates had been opening tickets on my behalf but ATA did nothing. When I asked why they said ‘Well we couldn’t contact you to follow up because your name is invalid’. I lost everything I spent nearly two years working on. ATA left me wide open, my account is unplayable and ATA could not care any less. Obviously it’s your call on whether or not to play this game. I just want to make you aware of the trauma that could be waiting.
