Hands Down One Of The Best Games Out On Phone.
Loving the game so far. Reminds us of Rise of Kingdoms a little. Devs please work on your chat translation function it is horrible and in multiple nationality tribes it makes sharing tips and instructions very difficult also please allow picture sharing. Some folks dont have access to discord in their countries and how are we supposed to help them grow!? Thanks.
This game is fun but the developers are very greedy because the game is extremely pay to win. All the major events are pay to win and even the new dragon skin released is pay to win like we have never seen before. Furthermore, the devs will literally give out gift codes and the rewards they give from these gifts codes are little to nothing.
So far we love this game. We just started it and Im really enjoying it. We rate it a six star thank you.
We played a number of games of the genre. Fate War seems to bring all of the best features of numerous games under one umbrella. The auto Hunt and auto gather features are great for players who have a job and cant play all day long. Theres enough activity and things to do to occupy a little time each day. As with most of these games, you have to spend a little to stay on top. If youre a freeloader, this might not be the game for you. If you respect the fact that these games cost money to develop and keep running, and youre willing to contribute to the developers, its a lot of fun.
There was an upgrade, once done all words are now in chinese. Rebooted several times, no improvement. Customer service no help.
Im uninstalling the game as the language switched to another and we cant read most of it. Maybe Ill try this one again in a few months.
The game should be focusing on growing the player base and being friendly to f2p players right now. Thats what everyone wants, f2p and spenders alike. Too many events, too many bundles prevent the gap from closing at all and cause players to leave. Disappointing to see them leaning so hard the other direction already. We will update this review to 5 stars if the situation improves, because otherwise the game is great.
Something different. We play it before bed. And it has pretty cool story lines!! Has you thinking and learning skills. Relaxing brain twister. Before bed.
Very helpful with hints and friendly.
The game is fun and easy to play. Relaxing and not demanding. Good sim of a village and raising it from ruin to glory.
Just downloaded, Ill give an updated review later.
When we be able to explore more areas.
Game is extremely good. PC level 4x game.
We love the graphics and the engaging gameplay. So far this is not a pay to play game. This is not a complaint but we dont have an iPad so we have to play on our iPhone. We tried downloading this game on our generic Android Tablet and we cant play the game because of compatibility issues. We just wish we had a bigger screen to play on. Maybe in the future this game will be playable on all platforms no matter what type of device a person has.
So far im enjoying this game good graphics the story is good so far and its not a difficult game to play you get supplies easily and they add up pretty quick.
We really enjoy this game and am part of an amazing tribe, but there are some aspects of the game that really need to be changed. The Vale of Spirits is horribly planned. Why are you putting teams with 6 million might with teams that are 2 million might? We are having a lot of people who talk about leaving the game because they cannot compete. You need to change your matchmaking. We are not even sure our tribe if it stays together it will participate again or a bunch of us might just leave the game.
We started this game at the launch, just after they concluded their beta phase. Ive never been one to purchase anything in-game as we saw no real life benefits, but this game has captured our heart and initially starting, we were going to be free to play no matter what, but given to our own ambitious goals we wanted to push even further. (this is not necessary to progress in game). However, after our spending days were over, we resorted to being free to play, and Ive made many great friends on the game, and being apart of an active tribe that was family-oriented didnt give the feeling of having to log-in to do your daily chores etc.. It was more exciting to log-in to socialize, their biggest update ever made was the auto-delegating button, this made it so you didnt have to complete those daily tasks manually. Now why is it friendly to Free to Play? Well, its simple, the games design is that if you are part of a great tribe, everyones tribe contributions turns into gold, which is the games monetary system instead of using real money to buy in-app purchases. The tribe leaders and deputies will grant whatever player they believe did the most to help out some gold.. Etc, they have rankings like if you made the top 1 you get 3,000 gold, and if youre second, 1,000.. Etc. Its overall a good way to encourage free to play people to engage in the game despite it being overrun by whales. Whales are essentially big game spenders and without them the ecosystem of the game would fail, so yes whales and non-spenders can coexist nicely. We would give this game a try.
Sorry word correction the annoying glitch of the flying CROPS over the fields..!!!! And why there is no option to remove training expansion when not wanted?! Thank you.
We saw AI in the starting cutscene of this mobile game, we saw a board turn into something. You should not use AI slop. Never use AI slop for your games, got that? Got it.
As an IGG veteran, here is our honest review. We gave 5 stars only due to how much better this game is for F2P players than the previous ones. Everyone writing about how it is a P2W game and giving one star is silly. Of course these games are p2w, that is just the nature of the beast. No point in complaining because you do not have the funds to pay. The game is all around very fun, GvG has been great, the most fun we have had in a KvK event in years. The p2w aspect is tapered off, as there are tons of F2P rewards too. All around very fun game and very engaged community.
Why do people make games that don't rotate with our iPad? The charger is on the bottom. We have mobility issues so we have to hold the ipad close to play. We can't do that with the charger in the way. If we could flip it so the charger was on top and the game rotated, we could play just fine.
Thanks to all for the tremendous effort set for us to move forward with this important project with great success and great community support.
Ive been playing for about an hour and Im hooked.
We were burnt out from games like WOS and LOJ.
This game is almost 3d and it was made good.
We dunno reminds us of clash and white out very good game and some of the characters and voice acting is peak.
Im leaving a one star review solely for the communication and customer support effort in this game. We have played ROG and reached CH 20 but never received our 50,000 gems and fate war after linking our accounts and showing proof to the customer team. We have been in a perpetual loop of it seems automation of them asking for the same thing over and over again after we have already sent it numerous times. We submitted this issue the day it was released because our gyms never reached our profile after linking the two accounts.
Its pretty cool, Id recommend.
Many aspects of this game are exceptional and far beyond its competition. The graphics are desktop PC level. The battles are not so numerous that you spend the entire time completing those and dont get any other gaming features accomplished. Plenty of free rewards making this a not to pay to play game. Short build times so that you can play and participate with your alliance instead of trying to wait and catch up. Many games THINK they are like this but fail to deliver.
Amazing game fun only creative is the speed of the game.
Why does it force you to build it, is it just a graveyard.
Im really enjoying this game and we hate mobile games lol. Just try it, youll enjoy it.
Fate War is hands-down one of the best strategy games Ive played in a long time! The graphics are stunning, the battles feel intense and satisfying, and the story keeps you hooked from start to finish. We love how every choice actually matters and changes the outcome, which makes the game super replayable. The controls are smooth, the rewards are fair, and theres always something new to discover. Whether youre into building your empire or dominating in combat, Fate War has it all. 10/10 cant recommend it enough.
Not enough instruction to clearly know what to do.
Game is exceptionally pretty and engaging for a mobile game. Yes, there is AI art, but it doesnt mean Im not enjoying it. Strategy runs deep, and the mechanics are well thought out. With that being said, it is a mobile game and the whales run deep. Do not expect to join this game years down the road! If youre in on the ground floor, you have a chance, but no f2p player makes it after 3 months.
Its nice not fake its the same game shown as the add and yeah super good.
We dont know why they want you to write a review 10 minutes in but here goes . Its ok. The same thing pretty much as all the rest of these types of games.
Cant find a place to report glitches in game. Arena is bugged it force closes when we try to fight.
Absolutely rife with bots and scammers. 99% of in game communication is just these idiots saying Hello friend, where are you from? To get you to contact them on other platforms. Devs seriously need to address it. We get dozens and dozens of these stupid attempts. Could be more fun to play if we didnt have these constant PM notifications.
We havent even played the game yet but the whole intro cutscene is AI its just ridiculous how companies dont even take the time to create anymore.
This is an amazing game give it a try.
We can just enjoy it without worrying about completing dailies, worrying about heals, all that tedious stuff that makes you kinda dread logging on. And it only takes a few levels to achieve that autonomy. This is our 3rd such gameand we spent a couple of years in both of the last two we played. This is what a game should be like.
We all need to get out of our own heads from time to timeto be in a far off land in a far off time. Give thanks to God for your life and all in it. Then let your imagination go for a bit. Play this game and give yourself a break. A break in a beautiful place that you create.
Been playing for 21 days straight. Fun. Havent felt the need to spend more than $15. But well worth the $1 per day of entertainment.
We love working with others as a tribe but also get to build on our own, on those days we need space and need to focus on something else.
Finding information on how to play can be difficult, but the interface is easy to use and you can figure a lot out just by playing. Its fun, and is similar to other games yet different in ways that keeps you coming back for more! Highly recommend it.
Awesome game, great community in the game.
