Community Insight:

Good morning, Im currently having a few issues when it comes to Knight Commander.  There is a bug when we tap on a character to send that character to do a task, it makes every single character available do the task instead of one of them. Ive tried holding down the characters name, but that goes to the weapon screen to equip a weapon,  and it doesnt let us choose to let one individual character go to a task while other characters do different tasks. Thats a little difficult for us because we need multiple items and we cant do that when all the characters are doing one task  Please fix this bug or do another update to the game for voiceover. Also, we dont know what the three buttons at the bottom of the screen Scavenge, Doze and Hibernate mean can you give us details about those two cause we dont know what use they have to the game.


Im playing on iPhone XS Max and the text that tells us how much gold we have and etc is cut off you cant read it which makes the game hard to play.


Really great game but unfortunately it is not possible now to create things manually like creating bricks, or things to build with the game isnt letting you to do that for some reason Also, it would be nice to have some kind of guide or if you Cue or game, users, chat room or something like that because it could be hard for beginners to put things together.


Thank you for this awesome game. We enjoy it very much. Tons of fun. We definitely recommend it: This game deserves our five stars.


This game is amazing, but it needs a VoiceOver tutorial and a tutorial for sighted people. This new interface is kicking our behind because there was no tutorial. Please consider adding tutorials.


We think this is a great game! She won of the review weres concerns about music, we were putting volume to zero and play backing tracks from our own music library which works great we recommend black metal or classical music goes well with five teams. We would suggest being able to use three finger off to move through options quicker so she can get a little annoying to single moves through resources and also through actions. Well done.


We love this game. We have maxed out and started new mini times over. We always try different strategies and different methods and never get bored. We would love to see this game receive more updates and more complications and more tasks and more resources and more of everything! Thanks for a great game! We have contacted the creator a few times when we have gotten into a bind, and he has always responded and helped us out! We really appreciate that for sure! Keep up the good work.


When we battle, especially at higher levels of battle, the screen freezes up and the app closes.


Hello, we love this game, because there are not that many games out there for those who are one handed, or have other hand disabilities. We will always keep this game around, and we play it all the time. Keep up the excellent work.


This is a very good game now. Th updates come often, and the developer is willing to help it improve. All you have to do is contact him through the games options in the shop. Also, if youd like, you can come up with your own contract project and send it onward for review.


We dont even want to admit how much time we have spent playing this. Endless playability, not buggy at all, and a wonderful fun game with frequent updates. We cant recommend this one more. Also, it is accessible for those using screen readers.


Hi, we are a new player of the game, and we have to say it is pretty fun. But we have to say one thing. There is a bug when we click the resources button, the game crashes to home screen. Would appreciate it if this was fixed.


Yay, game was fix!! We loved it.


We love this game, but we have a few things. For one, why not have some of the people get married as an option. Also, what happened to being able to spend your mana on other things? We like the game. It is quite fun.


This is a really cool game. We have some ideas on how it could be made better, and one idea is the ability to grow cocoa beans on the farm. Then you could make chocolates, a hot chocolate drink, and so much more. Another really cool thing would be the ability to make cakes and pies. This is an awesome game.


Really fun but what are diamonds used for.


We love this game, and we find it very fun and enjoyable. Im very happy and thankful it is accessible with Voice Over. We still play, but today while playing , we noticed a slight bug with building sheds. We were building 17 at a time to increase our storage. After a while of doing that, we noticed it said That we had more sheds and storage space from them, but it never added more to our total storage space, unless we built them one at a time. We thought we should inform you of this for future updates of the game, but despite that we will continue to play your game, because we really love the game and what you have done with it. And ending on a side note, we would like to be able to listen to the original soundtrack of the game along with all of the new soundtracks of the game.


The only problem that we have found is that when we hit the button that says feed all your people for X amount of gold, we press it and it just does not seem to work. Putting them to sleep work, but not feeding them.


There are a couple of bugs we'd like to bring to your attention. The first is that some options in the team auto-assign menu don't work including one person per team. The second is that when you upgrade a building or make multiple tools such as more than one axe, the amount you could get from the upgrade doesn't increase like it's supposed to. Don't worry. You haven't lost a fan. We still love the game.


We absolutely love this game, but have a question about the latest update. It includes people and weapon find routine. Where are these routines? And how do you use them.


The game does not work everything we click on does not open.


Hello. So the game kept giving us one emergency after the other. How often are they supposed to happen? While they give us some things, they take others away, so please investigate it. Still an awesome game.The game is very good and addictive. Problem is, since we updated to the new ios version, it keeps on crashing. Could you please fix it.


We have been looking for a good game to play and this one is just perfect. Thanks for developing it. We enjoy it so much. It is really addictive. And works with voiceover which makes us very happy. Awesome game.


This game is incredible! Here are some ideas to make the game better. The first idea, is that we think we should have it to where characters can romance each other. That way, you can increase the population without having to spend a ton of gold. And we think you should have it to where, if someone is in the hospital, one of the other people can visit that person. And find room, we think you need to get some more music tracks because we cant hear that same loop for too long. It just gets kind of annoying in our opinion. Are you in that, nickname is incredible. Again, so many ideas are our personal opinion. You can do whatever you want with this can we make characters romance each other. And also, please dont mind the typos, dictation is failing us right now.


We have played this game for 100 plus hours and Im still working on several challenging commissions. We have enjoyed this games design, tycoon style gameplay aspects, clean interface, no-ads hassle, deep building engine, and overall excellent RPG dynamics! We would like to congratulate the developers on an outstanding job! We have revealed this game and played it live in our Newdeath Gaming YouTube channel. We will gladly promote wholehardedly any Blind and visually impaired Voiceover compatible games. Please reach out to us for any new builder/RPG game news.


We have ben playing this game for about 1month and its pretty good, but, all of our people had 31000 energy and we encrest it, but instead it closed the app and we got a whole new tribe, with 250 energy, its pretty good though.


We reviewed this game by accident instead of the one we meant to review. This game works fine but it's not really our cup of tea. Thanks for understanding.


OK so we know how to sell things for gold, but how the heck do we get the chicken, the meat, the string, everything to build the well, things to build other things. Im so confused Im just stuck doing the same things over and over.


The app crashed several times since the date of purchase.


Whenever we try to use automation it crosses, is there a way we could get the problem fixed, otherwise the game works totally fine. But we are trying to figure out why it wont let us get it 10,000 man oh it wont work.


We really do love this game. We would have given it five stars, but there is a bug with the last update. The app keeps crashing on us. Please fix this. Thanks so much.


This game is not complete. All the sounds are just ripped from other games, half the art work has just been drawn in ms paint. We tried really hard to to like the game, but its not there yet. This still belong in TestFlight.


When we first downloaded the game it was great. We have played it now for about a week and there are certain aspects of the game that are messing up. Four instance, when we click on the inventory the game completely closes and anything we have done in that session for instants collected stones, cut down trees, etc. Reverts back to what it was when we first opened the game. We have updated, and now when we click on inventory The game plays a very strange sound almost like a scratching noise and then close it is about five seconds after clicking on inventory. We also attempted to do a couple of the quests, even though we had the items in our inventory was still told we failed the quest. Any input from the developer on these issues would be great! Other than that, the game is very fun! If we were not having the above mentioned issues we would definitely give this game a five star rating.


This is an awesome game we have been looking for a game like this play for a long time.


If you love strategy and empire building, you will love this one. If you never tried a craft and game like this before, give it a shot. You dont know what youre missing.


Greatly enjoy this game; cant wait till everything is implemented. Curious as to how the war system works w/barracks & the gym. The CPU seems to always have greater energy than we do. Is there some way to even this out.


We absolutely love this game. Im glad that it is accessible with voiceover because we really enjoy games like this. Ive already had to deal with one disaster and a monster flatten one of our water wells. Darn monster. LOL. We wonder whats going to happen next. We couldnt do anything about it because there was nothing we could do. Im excited to know what features will happen next. Someone asked us if we knew what our people look like since we have so many and we told them not yet. We told them that they sound a lot alike depending on male or female. Its a lot of fun trying to build different things and learning a lot about how things operate in your town. Keep up the great work on this game and we cant wait to see what comes next.


We can buy ingery but not time and we have a lot of gold we reinstalled our game.That does not work.


This is so much fun. This is exactly what we have been wanting. It's better than most games that we have played. Maybe even all of them. It's exactly the kind of game we like, casual, but you don't have to wait. You are always making progress, and you can spend as little or as much time on it as you want. Can you make a game sort of like Pet shop story, or a virtual pet game.


We have found another bug in which the game closes whenever we try to open it. This could be attributed to exploring another bug that increases our gold when we hold our finger on the sell button. It is a really fun game, though, and we understand that this is a very early release.
