Community Insight:
We love this game. The only problem Im having is we wish it wasnt so expensive and we also wish you could be a female Khan as a girl who loves to play. It would be really fun if you could have male and female consorts.
Good game. Great premise. But we have lost progress more than once and that's no fun.
First off , we just want to take the time to tell the creators or this game , as well as others we enjoyed , youre amazing !!! These games are awesome and very addictive. We love how you dont need money to do things , and there is so much you can do without being bored EVER ! Keep it up guys.
We love the game. We been playing consistently for almost 2 years now. It does help in passing the time. Lots to do. So much to learn. We wish we could also access it on our windows 11 or through the Microsoft Store. We met some awesome people.
Super fun at first, but after awhile our server (S210) basically died due to no new players being sent to this server. Instead they are sent to newer more active servers. We belong to the top horde, where horde leader has been switched back and forth until finally there were only two of us left. Horde recruitment is weird, like, theres no way to post that youre looking for new players. Even if you could, there are no new players on our server. Reaching out to devs was futile. They mentioned cross-server play which, while there is some cross server play, several functions are still unavailable (like being able to invite a friend from another server to a feast). We asked about moving our character to another server but was told that we would have to start over with a new character. Our current character is high level, and we have spent a fair amount of real $$ on this game. Disappointing.
This game is fun and we will say that we played for almost 2 years so that does say something positive about the game. However it is very repetitive. The have the same mini games and rushes on the same rotation over and over again. They did just add in a new mini game but Im pretty sure it was almost a year since they added a mini game before that. The servers start to die off and they will not merge them. They did create legions which is a good way around that but the legion battles have a glitch and they will not fix it. They deny that the glitch is there even with screenshots as evidence.
We like the idea of being a khan just add DARKSKIN AVATARS.
We have played this game for 2 years now it has always been our go to game and the graphics are beautiful! We love the character khuba being our best and most favorite advisor but recently we wanted to get one of his outfits for him and realized that it would cost us $150 from sea trade just to get it. We love the outfit but to spend that much money for an outfit is ridiculous we will still and always play this game but will most likely never be able to get outfits until years later from barely getting them from events that is also more money just to win.
Very good game, the story and gameplay are impressive, we would like them to translate it into Spanish so that our friends can play it.
The game was great until they brought in the new pact with beasts. Basically, you have to pay real money to be great in this game before the pact part was made you could earn greatness. The attempts to make a pact cost real money and you need 10 of the same animal for 1 pact to be made. Pacts give a lot of sovereignty you wont reach without them. We deleted the game because our hope to earn our way to greatness was gone.
So many cons to say about this game. 1. You will never grow without spending thousands of dollars. Some players spend $70k dollars and give up because there is no growth. 2. You will be stuck with a server that is dying and game will never acknowledge of server merge. 3. Too many contents on the game that consist of more spending. 4. Very toxic players and admin will never help at all. 5. Battle system is so rig that every move you have to spend $5 per 3 moves.
We live this game but we wish they writing have more free wives in the world travel because allot of us dont have money like that and we want to keep playing but we dont want to spend too much money on this game when we have more important things to pay for. Can you guys add more new wives that are free in the world travel towns.
It seems to be a way of life for most people we have met here! Even across server horde battles are full of genuine encouragement and comradery! We have met several like minded people that are never bored with this game! We love the player interaction with each other! Well done and fantastically interesting! Thanks for this.
Just downloaded the update and now we can't play a podcast or music while playing the game. We only ever played the game playing music or a podcast. We know we're going to stop playing this now because we can't have something else playing. We hope this gets fixed soon.
Ive been addicted to this game for the past 3 days. Very good.
Pros: Decent game. Easy to learn and play. Always some event or another going on to help you advance in rank, but doesnt require 24/7 monitoring or even participation as in some game types. P2W players can jump ahead easier but even F2P players can advance with just time invested. F2P players: just try to hit as many events that drop free stuff as you can. Set an alarm if you have to. Drops tend to be small but theyre free and add up over time. Joining a strong, active horde will also help your advancement as well as fun. Cons: Probably dead and dying servers are the worst problem. If you jump servers, you restart from zero, irrespective of what you had before. If youre lucky to get in a new server that has many active players, more power to you. More typically, people will start dropping out and youre left with the strongest horde having perhaps 3-5 active players. Some events depend on horde participation and you just cant solo everything no matter how strong you are or how much money you spend. So it can get frustrating. Many experienced players on low activity servers jump to new servers enmass (after coordination with other cross server players), so if youre a new player in that server you will have difficulty progressing fast enough. Better performance = better ranking = better rewards. Nothing wrong with that, but its almost guaranteed that spenders will do better than F2P players, so the later will just get further and further behind. There are cross-server (horde battle) matchups. Typically there will be 1-2 stronger hordes with one dominating most horde battle games. Some hordes play nice and give smaller hordes a chance. Others just try to hog everything, ruining the fun for smaller hordes. Negotiating and gaining trust of larger hordes can be very helpful. But at the end of the day, in most cases a horde will be weak because there arent enough players and the lack of active players will not improve over time. What the Devs could do, but refuse to, is to permit cross server player transfers at the current player Sovereignty level, perhaps with limited resources. This will strengthen some servers and weaken others, but the weaker ones are likely already weak due to having less active players. This might make cross server battles more dynamic; the outcomes are fairly stagnant right now. In our opinion, horde battles happen too often as well. There are enough events going on to keep people busy. Perhaps there should be a 2 week interval between rounds instead of having them every week. But this might just be us; we were getting bored by it. Another option would be to randomly (or selectively) merge weaker servers together. This would present an opportunity for both weaker servers to combine active players into a horde with more active players. Dead servers just lead to boredom. Our final con is that this is a p2w game. F2P can do ok, but at the same knowledge level the p2w player will almost always get the better rewards. Thats fine, at least to a point; the Devs and game owners are looking for profit. As with most p2w games, there will always be someone that spends more than you. The important thing is that you enjoy the game. F2P players can have fun as well, but as time progresses, the power level difference between you and a competent p2w player will only get greater. We dont recall seeing anyone in the top 100 Sovereignty ranks that was F2P.
We still have not gotten what we paid for. We made our purchases on the online website vs in game and we still cannot claim the advanced emblem pack and grand emblem pack rewards. Customer support has also began to ignore our request for a resolution. We filed a claim with our bank for the missing items. GoK customer support is horrible. If you want to spend your hard earned money on this game please proceed with caution.
Downloaded this game to earn Swagbucks and now Im trying to convince our partner to get it so we can play together. Beautiful graphics. Lots of play styles to engage in.
We love this game! Ive spent hours playing it.
We love this game! Very addicting.
We saw an ad for this game on Facebook 16 months ago and said eh, looks like an entertaining way to pass some time. Well, here we are a year and a half in with TWO accounts playing literally ALL DAY EVERY DAY. This dang game is so addictive! The graphics are beautiful, theres a ton of minigames inside the main one and we have made a ton of online friends! (Download Discord if you dont have it already, everyone uses that for big communications) we cant believe the in-depth social aspect of this game, its really a blast. Oh- and you dont have to spend money to play, theres lots of people who dont. But we wont even talk about the amount of dough Ive dropped for the added benefits Seriously though, we give this five stars. Love it.
Games is alright. No very active and difficult to grasp the concept at first but it's kinda fun.
We play in an iPhone and when we started the game the menu screen was fine but once we started after that, the graphics were non existent. We saw nothing but a bright pink screen and moving circle on where we were supposed to tap to move on, we think? Hope you can fix the problem.
We just cant stop playing, Im very addicted to this game! We recommend everyone to try this game.
We deleted this game after 14 months of playing as an F2P (VIP 0). We got tired of playing the same rehashed mini games over and over, the constant glitches and popups during gameplay, the random dog mini game that was never updated or refreshed with new levels, and just going nowhere in general. They keep moving targets so you accrue 3-4 shards of 15 different random things, but never can earn enough to do anything with them. It started to feel more and more pointless. Thankfully we never spent money on this game; it would probably be harder to quit if Id invested any money.
When we were on android, we played this game for over a year, and wasted tons of money. We grew our advisors, had our reds at 5 stars, and did battle every weekend. That being said This game is nothing but a money pit. Do not download. If you already have, delete it before you fall into the pit. There are so many people dumping hundreds, it not thousands of dollars on this game every week, that its unrealistic that youll ever be at the top of the pack, if you start today. Battle is fun the first few times, but it hasnt changed since they started. (They added Tomoe, but the schematics of the map remained the same). The mini-games are all just money/diamond dumps. So glad we walked out on this game. So sad we ever spent money on it.
Do you have thousands of dollars to waste? Are you free 7 days a week all day? Are you hoping to meet some narcissistic people who do, so you can stroke their egos and make them feel better about the fact that they spent thousands on a mobile game? Do you like to play games that force you to rely on others doing all of the above also? Do you want to read through hundreds of discord posts written by people in the above categories to figure out how to play? If so, then this game is for you!!!! It starts innocently enough. You are taken through a tutorial which gives you a super vague understanding of the game. The graphics are good, theres a lot of free stuff at first, youre gaining some cloutawesome! But wait.whats this? You need to join a horde with other players? Cool, ok..maybe some of them know how to play because the instructions are terrible! Some do.because theyve played before..on other servers. Yep, there are hundreds of servers, new ones are spun up every week or so and new players are funneled there. Why does this matter? Because after the newest server is created, no one else is joining yours. Meanwhile you think youre doing great. You put some money into the game because you almost have toto get anywhere or to silence the repetitive super annoying ads. But others on your server are realizing what this really is and quitting. So now its you, a few other brave souls, and people who have played before so they know tips and tricks that you dont. But lets say you decide to stick it out and things on your server arent too bad yetBRING ON CROSS SERVER! Now..you and whats left of that group are competing against servers that are older than yours..the only way to win is to spend more money. Without winning, you will fall even further behind everyone else, because winners get rewards to upgrade their teams that you will have to buy or wait months to slowly build up. Next, more servers..and you realize that there are people who have been playing on dying servers forever because theyve spent thousands of dollars on this game and their teams strength is in the billons.you might have 100 million after a few months of moderate spending and countless hours. People have pleaded with the game developers to help with the issue of servers dying because they have invested a LOT of money in this game. The devs do nothing, just create more servers and ways to take your money. THIS GAME IS GOOD FOR ONE THING..GETTING YOU TO SOEND MONEY AND ITS EXTRAORDINARY AT THAT.
We have played this game for a long time and unfortunately people pay money to rise through the ranks but then servers die. And no one will merge the dying servers therefore the people and money they spent are useless. We would like to give our review more stars but unless dying servers can be merged long term play is pointless.
Its really hard finding members for our horde. We have it set on anyone can join but no one has been joining for weeks. The horde we manage is amazing! We are a very active horde. We participate in ALL activities. We rank #3 or #4 in majority matches but would love to see #1. The only requirements we have is to stay active and have fun. We Hope to see new faces soon. Horde: ORCAZM ID ME: 1919030176.
We love this game but after updating we cant open it just has a circle thing that goes round and round. Not sure how to fix wish there was somewhere to email. Highly recommend the game tho.
Little slow but keeps a lot of interesting part to the game and no click bait ad.
We used to hardcore grind this game all day but this dog update is so random and restrictive, we hate it and fail to see the relevance of a poorly animated, circle dog needing saving from bees?? It just stunts the overall experience in general because now we have to fight, play mini games, expand our empire, collect concubines, kids, and advisors all while suddenly needing to save a weird dog that doesnt even fit the games animation or plotline.
