It's a fun little Rampart style game. It has plenty of strategies by manipulating the combat timers. The game would be better if the adventure timers weren't so damn long.

The game itself and mechanics are not bad for a time killer but I made a purchase and ended up not receiving what I paid for. The game crashes multiple times and did not save any progress from quests/crates or the transaction that I made.

Amazing! Been playing for a month straight. I highly suggest you buy the starter pack if you like the game. Hopefully someday we will get updates. Rockets or freaking lasers would be awesome. The possibilities are almost endless. My favorite game right now.

This game is easy to learn but difficult to master. The concept is great and loads of fun. I can see room for improvement but, even as it stands now, it doesn't necessarily need much improvement. I only get hooked on a handful of games each year and this is a top pick. I seldom offer ratings and even less likely to write something but i felt with this game it is warrented. Keep up the good work and i look forward to future updates.

So far a great game! Have to be a bit strategic on placement of rooms, troops, etc. Rewards can be won pretty easily, obviously paying makes it easier but not necessary. Ads can be annoying but mostly help get things + gems to progress. Definitely recommend for a good time killer.

I had all my purchases deleted however I emailed the developer and was heavily compensated, with value in my gift 4x higher than what I lost. Overall anyways, the game is good, just wish there was more interaction to other players and different game modes and even Island designs along with more themes to chose from.

As of this moment my first impressions are good. Love the art, cartoony with bright colors. The store doesn't contain crazy microtransactions just Jems that speed stuff up. The only thing bugging me is the battles being small, I would like to see the castle and the troops up close to see the detail.

after playing the original siege castle, this is just straight copied same game with different graphic which is even worse than the original. canon that stays in the structure makes it look like it does less damage and less battle like feeling than the original and it won't even let me finish destroying the enemy castle. you should give option to let me finish them it's part of the pleasure of winning.

When I first started the game, it looked like a good game but as I started the game froze and crashed and every time I tried to log back in it would keep crashing so I had to restart, so when I restarted it made me spend all of my gems and took me to the store while still in the tutorial mind you, and it would allow me to leave afterwards please fix this

It seems like my previous review was deleted. However, the issue I had was resolved with the latest update. A little slow paced in the beginning and kinda grindy but, overall, I love the art, there is a personalization feature and you can earn in game Currancy through tasks in game.

Too many ads. Progress is determined by who spends the most. There's games that do what this company was trying to do withouy the ads and with better overall gameplay. I can think of one in particular thatd over 3 years old that never coerces a player to spend yet has options to do so that do not break the game entirely

I'm experienced in both the old game and this new one. Both remind me of a game I loved to play, Crush the Castle but you have your own castle now with unique options and that's the best part. Pros: *Tons of replayability *Entirely possible to play without paying *Once you thought you mastered the game's meta, there is always a new challenger Cons: *Minimal communication from devs *Rewards are sparce *Very slow to start rolling *Out of control market/shop *NO DEVELOPMENT ROADMAP TL;DR Its fun

Seems like we are deleting reviews. Will keep lowering my score accordingly. Allegedly the game data from the old one to this one was supposed to somehow transfer. There's no way it seems. Same game, new skin. It may be better but if we aren't keeping promises idk if I want anything to do with it. I also fear it becoming an awful cash grab. The tutorial gives you freemium currency but makes you use it all before it let's you actually play the game.

Literally a reskin of a game this studio previously released, with the whole pile of problems still present. Unclear and inflexible unit deploy settings, poor and inconsistent ai, physics shoddy enough to have my entire castle sometimes fall apart like a house of cards when one minor block is destroyed, time-gated upgrades, and aggressively p2w from the very start. Players half my level can have twice the resources I do because as long as they shell out they can always get 3x the chest rewards.

It's okay but there are glaring issues. Despite setting my seige weapons to target the enemy king, they target enemy approaching soldiers instead, (even when the enemy king is FULLY exposed) which makes no sense. Usually they end up firing too short and hitting my own infantry. This problem was present in the previous title as well, so it seems like more of a feature than a flaw in the Dev's eyes.

slow start, but it can ramp up pretty quickly! I have been watching the optional ads to get more bread to keep playing... it's a small price to pay. there are ads that AREN'T optional every 5 rounds or something, and I HATE that. i get it, gotta make that money, it's really the only reason I'm dropping to 4 stars. More acievements or daily/weekly tasks for gold, gems, or chest points would be appreciated. fun game and i look forward to more. thanks devs.

Hello, this is a great game that I have found alot of enjoyment playing, but it has just been redone, so I just wanted to let you guys know that there is an issue with the targeting mechanics for catapults/trechebuts where they will target the space before the ruler segment of an enemy castle after every other part of their castle has been destroyed, its making getting wins really hard and I would appreciate it if this issue was looked into. Thanks
