The Tribez: Build a Village Wiki

This game has really been so much fun specially after i joined a clan!!!! I started leveling up faster, playing in races (taking 1st most of the time)!!! Making a ton of new friends from all over the world and making my island grow, grow, grow!!! I've got all the land open on 3 island and working on the others I never run out of things to do because I can always build something and w more land coming open on some islands had made it that much better!! I buy jeweles all the time by choice but I win them every week from the races so you can play for free w no worries and have the same amount of fun!!!! I use mine to speed up things or get extra things. So come enjoy a game that you don't have to spend money on and you can literally spend hours on end playing and never be bored because there's always something to do, grow, build or complete task for more rewards and to find out new things going on or that you'll need it's the total pkg awesome!!!!

This game is an awesome farming game, simple enough to pick up and play, and complex enough to hold your attention. There are many quests to keep you going through an amusing story line, or you can free style, to a point. My only constructive criticism is that, because I am typically driven by checking boxes off a to do list, I wish there was a way to hide some quests I would prefer not to do immediately, and then unhide them when I felt like completing them. Having to hold all the quests in the same view is a bit annoying when I know for a fact there are some quests that will take me weeks before I feel like accomplishing the goals since there are other things I prefer to use my resources for. There are so many different avenues one could pursue, it is hard not to get side tracked into the various activities. Great job on a great game!

I have played this game since my first IPad 1 and it is really awesome. I do have a question about when you buy a new territory and they take my gems and I never get the territory that I paid for with my gems. This has happened 2 times as of Tuesday and Wednesday. I am a great fan of this game and hope you can tell me how to get my gems back and also spent gems on clean crew but never got that either. I love the new buildings and the fact you can play or join a team; but I have no people in my group and now I cannot join another one! I still have not gotten my gems back and I am so frustrated, I don’t know how to go back and get a screen shot to prove my loss and I still have lost a lot of gold. I have also lost land that I paid for with gems and had to pay for it a second time. HELP

I really enjoy this game. I’m one of those people that finds satisfaction in crossing completed items off my to-do list, so of course this type of game is great for that. Game play is very fair, as opposed to other games of this type where you have limited amounts of energy, etc that has to recharge over time. You can play the game as intended for a long time without spending money, which is a huge item in the plus column for me. The only issue I have is the way the tasks are organized. Many of the tasks are only available to complete in one location, and others can be completed anywhere, but by having all the tasks in one long list it is nearly impossible to keep track of what to do where the farther you get in the game. There are a few hints in some cases (snow on a building, for example), but it gets to be a real pain. Could location-specific tasks go to the top of the list as you move from place to place? Some other way of grouping them (color coding or something) so it’s much more obvious which location is intended for the task? Just a few thoughts. This issue is really a product of being able to do so much in the game, so thumbs up for that, but I would love to see something done to make that a little easier.

This game is super fun and addicting. I love the building of tribes and islands. It’s a great free game, I’ve been playing for years, just picked it up again. They NEED to overhaul the quest systems. They’ve been adding quests continually for years but they’ve not been paying attention to where those quests line up with other quests. I have quests to build watermelon carts on island 2, but I got them 10 levels before they are unlocked. There’s a ton of marble-building quests, but I haven’t unlocked marble yet because I have to work on the rainbow stuff, which is newer. I’ve had a quest for doing long-term sand mining, but I haven’t even gotten the third island yet because I haven’t gotten marble yet! I have a quest to build an observation thing which uses cut marble and sand but again, I haven’t even gotten raw marble yet. All these quests I can’t do are bogging down my quest line and making me frustrated to have to scroll endlessly every time I open the game to find the 1 or 2 quests I actually can do. The quest to upgrade the cheif’s house for the first time is given to you at level 10, and guess what, it takes marble. I’m level 38. This is crazy.

The game is entertaining and quite time consuming so terrific for all the time at home but you should understand at the start that the support is lacking. The menus to choose from are incomplete but you have to go through them to leave a message for an actual person. Then they leave a message that doesn’t solve your problem but leave a menu to choose from A or B neither of which works so the conversation, such that it was, stalls there. Additionally, when there is a glitch with a purchase the go to answer is no refund even if it is a limited, one item purchase and you are charged twice. There is no discussion, no recourse. You are simply informed that it was a non refundable purchase and the “conversation” stalls in a menu that did not resolve the problem. I would like to take this opportunity to say that it is not an actual purchase if no item was received since you can’t make that point in the support conversation. I highly recommend staying away from the in app purchases for this reason. The game could be enhanced with those purchases but it’s not worth the risk, the irritation and the inevitable disappointment.

Absolutely love the general game, but every single one of the mini games is trash! The chief’s house uses too many of your needed resources, the boat game is useless, the one game the I actually liked (panda event) makes you start from scratch every time the event reappears. There are goals you can’t complete that stay there forever because the past event is no longer available. Buildings you can’t complete because the event you got them in is gone and not coming back. Also, don’t like the fact that the only way you can get friends is to add them as friends on Facebook. Created a separate FB account specifically for Tribez. Have reached out to support servers times for assistance with switching my game over and they state there’s an issue that needs to be fixed in an update... 3 updates later and still no fix. Made the new FB account for NOTHING with over 300 friends that I can’t even play with. Generally love the game... have been playing off and on for at least 5-7 years but lots of issues that need to be worked out to make the experience more enjoyable.

This game can be fun but the quests need A LOT of work because you’ll get quests for things that you haven’t finished another quest to get. Once you finish one quest you get 1-3 more. Plus the list of quests aren’t listed for that island. So you’re guessing on which quests correspond to that island. There are some quests that I have right now but I can’t finish them because I’m too low of a level to even have the option of building it. It seems like a lot of my complaints are the same ones others have complained about but nothing has been done about it and some of them are reviews from months or years ago. The developer says our reviews are important for development but I haven’t seen things get better. Plus the price to expand keeps getting more and more. It takes a long time to accumulate the money to expand. I’ve unlocked 5 islands and on at at least 3 islands I can’t expand because the land costs too much or I can’t get the materials to expand.

I really enjoy this game. I used to play it back in 2013. I had to start over since it’s been so long my game dats was basically lost. I love the idea of this game. How you get to complete tasks, expand your land and venture to new islands. However, there are a few kinks. I don’t like how you only have two storage spaces and have to pay for the rest. It’s nearly impossible to redesign your island when only two items can go into storage. I don’t like how if you dissembled something, you get nothing for it. In the beginning levels of the game they make you buy sun tiles to get mahogany planks. Well I had to buy probably like fifteen or twenty of them. I don’t like them so I don’t really want to keep them but I know I won’t get any sun stones back if I get rid of them. Another drawback is the length of times and amount of supplied things take. I’m only on level 24 and I have the mission to buy the area where the pilots set up camp. But that piece of land is 400,000 coins. I can barely get to 50,000 coins without having to spend them on other things that also cost a lot. And having to wait 10+ hours for something to be done is super annoying. Im still going to play the game because it’s super addictive but I really wish they would make some improvements. Update: the new visuals of the game are not that great. They honestly might make me stop playing.

I have played hours and hours on this game. However I think I’m just coming to realize why! There appears to be a glitch in the game with transferring your items from one island to the other (which is absolutely required since you can’t make things on some islands but have tasks that require those items). Last night I sent hundreds of rainbows from the fjord to my main island and it should only have taken approx. 5 hours for each of the 3 balloons. They never arrived today and my inventory was reduced. So WHERE’D THEY GO?! I think it been happening for some time and can only imagine how much has been lost. Its so frustrating because I really love the game and don’t even mind that it can be a little hard or takes time. But it’s reallllyyyyy hard if the items are being scheduled to transfer, never do and then you just lose them. What’s the point of playing?! This needs to be looked at ASAP because I can’t justify continuing if I’m crippled by inability to collect resources. Even the game instability is worth putting up with (mine often crashes and I’ll lose the last few minutes of work). But not this.

New update: Theres lots to do in this game, but the further in you go, the more quests you have to fulfill to move ahead. This is fine, but (at least to me!) there is no way to know exactly which quests, or in what order to complete the quest!! So you just continue to guess at the quest you must complete. I was ready to quit at one point because it was getting impossible to build the marble factory. I had to reach out to customer service at least four times, each time their responses telling me different quests I needed to complete. I did finally complete it, but now I’m attempting to do another action and being told I must complete quests before I can complete!! I have no idea which quests, or in what order, once again. This needs to be fixed! The quests need to be numbered, or kept in some type of order. Completing actions is getting discouraging rather than fun anymore. Update: This game is really good! I like the fact that there is actually something to do all the time, unlike so many similar games where you have to wait for hours to complete every task, or try to find something that never shows up, or spend real money to get to the next level. Truly 5 stars from me! So far this seems to be a fun game. I'm always a little apprehensive about writing these reviews when asked, because as soon as I do, and give it a good rating, it goes downhill from that point!

I’m a 100+ level player and have worked with them through their (many) bugs. Now they are being outright trifling and unethical. The game comes to a full stop without the ability to unlock territories on Farmers Bay. Unless you are some kind of wizard, you will have to do this with gems. You can buy gems with real money (obviously their preference), or by game play and clan tournaments. They will outright steal your gameplay gems and claim that you have spent them on nonsense. They will accept no responsibility for gems disappearing via bugs in the tournament reward distribution, even when clearly illuminated. You WILL come to a point where you cannot progress because they “disappear”your gems. I use gems for one thing only- Expansions on Farmers Bay. I don’t “accidentally” spend them on anything else and yes, I keep confirmations on, so there’s absolutely no chance of “accidental” spending. They’re unethical and they’re stealing. This is a game. Plenty others out there that are worth your time. This one’s not it. Don’t pay to progress. Pay to support a good game. I like Don’t Starve, Crashlands, Big Farm Mobile Harvest, Plants vs Zombies , Dark Meadows, The Room, Fallout Shelter, Monument... really no reason to get nickle-and-dimed by these jerks.

I loved playing this game. The beginning is faster and more fun. But the more island and more property you have it slooooows down! Can’t take it anymore. Buying a new property cost millions, and what’s with the stupid tasks? You have to complete these task and they aren’t fun at all because just way too slow. Like discovering 5 items in a cave and you have to do it 6-7 times to find one item. But the last string was when I built police stations in each island that boosted my happiness level and by the time I had items to build new houses it has been taken away from me. I had to do the happiness boosting tasks all over again. Not happy. For weeks you’re just doing the same thing multiple times a day going actually nowhere. The zeppelins are a joke.i like the idea that you have to ship items island to island but taking 20 hrs to het there? It’s ridiculous. The left side of the list is stupid quests . It would be more fun without the tasks, and the variety of social buildings is a joke. There should be a lot more. Volleyball court in ancient times??? Kidding me? I just realized that I am playing a couple of months now for actual nothing . It’s going nowhere and done with it.

I never write reviews but I wish this was something I knew in advance before spending a ton of my own money on this game over the past 6 months. I loved this game, I had no problem paying real money. What I do have a problem with is my game freezing/crashing after spending my money on gems and I don’t know if there is anything I can do to get it back. I have been reading forums online and it appears as though this has been an issue for a long time. It also seems like the IT department just tells you to delete the game and you have to start over (they will pay you back for the gems) but I don’t care about that, it was alllll my progress. I had one island left to uncover. I am hoping this isn’t the case. Sadly if it is, I’m not starting over. Listen like I said the only reason I’m upset is because it really is a good game. I’m sorry for writing a bad review but it’s a terrible feeling when you spend that much money on something and invest that much time for it to just be gone. I have already contacted your support department but haven’t received anything back yet.... if my game is still there I will delete this, apologize and give you a 5 star rating.
