• Wonderful Strategy and Puzzle Game in One

  sewcraftyilaJuly 8, 2013

  Pros

  A quick game or a longer strategic game depending on how much time you have. I have this on 3 systems: The first Kindle, the Kindle Fire and now on the Samsung 10.1 tablet. Guess you can call me a fan. I've never had an issue with it running on any of them, its crisp, easy to understand and on the Samsung (never tried on the Kindles) you can press on say the red house and it will show you what matching 3 of them will give you. I love strategy games & puzzle games are my next favorite so this is naturally one I'd enjoy. Its easy enough for my 5 year old grand daughter to play if I chose the map with no bears or ninjas, but challenging enough for me if I choose the map with 50% more bears to give my brain a real workout. I have noticed that when I'm playing a game and doing really well I tend to get more of what I need instead of just grass. I don't know if the game is set up to do this or if I was just having luck? But whichever it is, sure does make the game a lot more fun.

  Cons

  I don't give this game the maximum five stars only because of what I consider their sneaky way of getting you to pay for it. I want to know right up front if there are any costs - I, like a lot of people in the App stores: Google, Amazon, the I store am sick of being led down the yellow road to the wizard's room with a great game and bam hit that wall telling us, oh its not FREE, you now have to pay for it. Tell me up front if there is a cost and I'm more likely to buy it knowing you've been honest with me from the start. Start off showing me fool's gold and I'm wondering what else you're showing me that isn't the truth. This is the only game that I have bought that has done that to me, the rest get uninstalled unless they have Lite on them. I bought this one because I had played it on the other devices. But I didn't play for 3 days while I thought about it, I almost did un install it.

  Summary

  A great game for anyone. Graphics are awesome, colors are bright & brilliant, easy to pick up and understand right away. Fun for waiting rooms, car rides, or any time you need to be entertained. If like me you have insomnia, this will help get you through the long nights with no regrets. Cost is a little higher than some games but it is worth it, it is a quality game, offers different 'maps' you can play and practice on, and you can play the tutorial to sharpen your skills as many times as you want or need to. I highly recommend this game.

• Good game, very addicting.

  Pros

  It is really just a puzzle time killer, but it is a lot of fun. Yes, some things cost money, and if you've played it on Google+ or Facebook, you already know this. However, it is a great pick up and go game.

  Cons

  It can get old after a while, since it can be extremely hard to advance to some of the more complex structures.

  Summary

  If you are willing to pay $3.99 for unlimited turns, you can have all the time you want to do whatever you want. Fun game, and if you like time killing puzzle games, this is for you.

• Bad support and buggy

  ninjaphileFebruary 6, 2012

  Pros

  Good game play, design, and concept

  Cons

  Bad customer support. Sent emails and twitters with no replies. If you do the IAP, you'll be required to enter in your password every app launch. If you don't pay, you're limited in number of turns. It also doesn't accrue points very consistently so sometimes you can have the app off and it won't accrue any turns.

  Summary

  Really fun game, but there are some significant support issues that need to be addressed. They get you hooked with 1500 turns but once that's used up you can only have a max of 150 turns saved up. That's not enough for a complete game. Turns are accrued over time, but the app doesn't always calculate the time correctly so I've had the app off for a day and gained 0 turns.
