Rise of Kingdoms Game Reviews

Fun but cheaters prosper. So this game is super fun. Have been playing a full year and have made great friends, however the developers of this game allow cheaters to propers. Our server has gave the 1300 server in back to back KIngdom vs Kingdom events and each time 1300 has been allowed to use unfair exploits and botting programs to cheat. They have been reported multiple times and yet nothing is done to correct the issue. Worse than that, the service team actually had the audacity to reply to our complaints with a lie. Told the many of us who have complained, who have literally sent them screen shots of the cheaters, that everything had been fixed when in fact nothing had been fixed. So wonderful game until someone starts cheating, openly and blatantly cheating without any negative consequences. And the kicker is the gall of the service team to actually lie to us like we are idiots and wouldn’t notice that the cheating is still happening. Play fun for here but don’t spend any money on this game please. This company doesn’t deserve it when they treat their players with such disregard. If anyone wants to check out this awful cheating who is currently playing just check Lost Kingdom server 35. If you know the game look at the pass level 9 between server 1273 and 1300. It’s a real riot how first they claimed no cheating was taking place and then afterwards lied to us and said it was fixed.

Surprisingly addictive. I normally hate this type of game. They all seem to be the same. However, I find this one is incredibly addictive. It’s fun to play and you can get lost playing for a long time while you balance out all of the things you’re doing at once. What makes this game different is the easy access to boosters. Normally in games like these you’re stuck waiting for hours for one building to finish. This game actually makes it really easy to earn the boosters that help them along. At least it does at first (I haven’t played this game for very long yet). The one thing that bothers me is that your generals can only gain XP by battling people. I feel like any action they do outside the city should add XP. Gathering is a great example. If your general earned a lower amount of XP for gathering, but still got some, this game would be much better. The leveling system for the generals/heroes is extremely difficult. If they worked on that a bit, the game would improve immensely. There are also appear to be some translation errors. I’m not sure where the developers are from, but there are some broken English sentences every now and then. Overall though, very well done and addictive game.

Excellent game but one huge downside. I love this game and really love to play it. Now there is one huge downside in this game and there is a easy way to fix it. Probably the most asked question: is this a pay to win game and the awnser is no, but you will never become great in this game and will be over looked unless you play 10 hours a day which for some people is the way to go. An easy way to fix this is to make free to play kingdoms where for example only people who have spent less than 40 dollars are allowed to enter. This would fix everything because it gives us a chance to really become great in this game and show what we are made of. Without it we just are the lowest players and achieve nothing or feel like that, because there are people that gain the might that you have in 200 days in less than a week. This game has done a great job of giving the chance to free to play players but it needs to go further to really give us the real feel of game play. Also the kingdom needs players who are very strong and that’s why I introduced that people who have spent a little money can still be seen as free to play which is essential for the game developers and players.

These dev comments sound like chatGPT nonsense lol. So my actual assessment is the game is good and bad. If you have unlimited free time to devote and are a people/good at networking you can make f2p work but it’s still a long haul. If you spend a little bit of money it’s about the same thing. If you spend a lot/whale out you can do whatever you want the first few months of the account and no can stop you lol. Don’t let the ads fool you if you plan to be f2p it will take around 2 years to reach 50m power. It would take thousands of dollars to reach 50m power in 2-3 months of making an account. If you spend money you can bully people and if you have a couple of friends there is little people can do about. Using shields and teleporting if you don’t have money to spend is pointless. F2p players have to just sit back and do what they are told to survive unless they have powerful friends. Unless the people spending thousands a month(yes some spend north of 10k/month on the game) are new or dumb, or you have several highly experienced people opposing them who are also spending money and actually willing to fight, they ultimately control what everyone is allowed to do. So if you can’t dedicate 5-6+ hours a day every single day for months on end or you have excessive amounts of disposable income don’t download this game. If you do have those things this can be a fun game.

Ultimate battle game! Best game ever!. I’ve been playing this game for a little under a year and I truly love it. Very addictive. I downloaded it just to play while I was bored, for example standing in line at a store but it quickly grew into the kind of game you every day, through out the whole day lol And on a even more personal note; I met my fiancé on here. I met him after a few weeks of playing the game. And even though he is in a different state than me (Me in CA and him in NY); it was love at first attack. I was a newbie and I didnt understand it then but he was/is what the gamers call a whale. He killed my troops during kill event and I got mad so I attacked him with all of my troops and they died. He sent and apologize email and helped me regain the troops I lost. We’ve spoken with each other every single day since then ❤️ The game was called rise of civilization when we met. Him and I are all about that RC life lol Update: Now we’re happily married with 2 children! Thank you RC (or RK now) this game changed my life! I’ll never stop playing this game and one day my children will play this game! My son is almost two and he likes to play on my account lol

8/10 stars! Great game recommended!. Very fun game, but with that there are a couple problems… 1: if you are not comfortable having kids play with other people online from around the globe then might not want to play this game. 2. There is a big grinding aspect to the game if you don’t like grinding to get to being the best player this game may not be for you. 3. This game also has a pay to win aspect in the game, I’m seen people that shot up from 1,000 power to 1 mil in about 2 days! This is probably not possible even if you were playing for 48 hours strait. 4. WARNING: there is a billboard sign you can put in your city that you can tap and take you to a social media page if you not comfortable with your kids having social media this billboard could be a problem. Also in this billboard I’ve seen girl taking pictures of themselves that aren’t appropriate for kids would not recommend for kids to see under the age of 18. Also last thing NEVER SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFO IN GAME. This may be common sense but just want to make sure everyone is aware of it. Even though I’ve said all the negative things all in all this is a very fun game to play and I still highly recommend you play.

Addicted. I’ve played this game for over a year, and I have been hooked, unlike most games like Clash of clans or other similar games like this, none have a feature where there’s an actual world you can explore, where you can take your armies and go out of the city, trade with other players, have alliances that rule over the entire kingdom or alliances that fight with others to rule the kingdom and eventually fight other kingdoms. The only and huge downside to this amazing game is the P2W (play to win) I’m guilty of slightly participating in this but player I know are constantly flowing in money and even when they have less time than me they are 2 or 3 times stronger than me. P2W players can not only gain more power, but more troops, upgrades, accessories to make their commanders stronger, more technology and better troops. The game does have some things to counter this, such as having the ability to migrate to a newer kingdom (server) to have players in your power-range ability. This isn’t a review for the devs this is more for the players to know that while the game is so much fun at first, in the long run you will meet “whales” (extremely strong cities) where it doesn’t matter how much you’ve grinded because of the amount of money they’ve put into the game. Overall I love this game, I just wish there was a way that I could compete with these types of players.

Not nearly good enough!. I love many aspects of the game but what makes it nearly unplayable is the pay to win aspects. I feel many changes need to be made to this game, mainly the pay to win part. This game would dominate the market of the genre and be so awesome if only people who spend thousands didnt control the servers and make it unplayable. At its current state its unplayable unless you spend money. Its not even hiding the fact that you need to pay money to win, ive seen several bundles that cost alot of money for a mobile game. I could buy several good steam games for the price of the bundles that only give you alittle buff above the rest. This game definitely needs improvements if it doesnt want to pander to the highest bitter, this is a major problem for all of their games. Lets face it, they make too much money of the idiots with big wallet. I would never recommend any of their games to anyone. They are never gonna change their practices and they dont have to. Just dont download this game, you will either get sucked in (and waste money) or waste your time. Well this and this review was a waste of time, no one will read this and if they reply they will send some automated message about how their working to change the game. Stay away from this game and others they own, this is a company that uses great ideas and genres to infect with p2w aspects that utterly ruin the game. Screw this company.

New players beware: Rigged for paying players - developers don’t care. I had liked the game because you get to build and fight barbarians sometimes other players but the problem is that the big paying players are so big they crush you and don’t let you expand or play. You work long and hard to grow your city or alliance and the big ones team together to destroy smaller ones. They sometimes join a weaker alliance to attack another weak alliance and after destroying them they go back to their big alliance. Other times they just attack a smaller alliance directly. So what’s the point! You think they would just fight each other - big to big instead of big to small. Instead these big alliances support each other. In fact some blantantly ask for your credit card or cash to join their alliance and all the developers say is oh we recommend don’t share personal data. The developers don’t tell those alliances that they shouldn’t ask for people’s cash or credit card information to join! So again it’s rigged for big paying customers. I’m not opposed to spending a little if you want to speed up a few things but here it does nothing for you because they want you to spend a lot of money. Oh well, that’s fine since they want to earn a ton of money but at least people should know. It was fun for a while but it’s pointless if you don’t balance out the game a bit.

Unfair Game - Beware. Rise of Kingdoms is a game where you cannot make fully maxed legendary heroes even after you play it for 2 years. If you don't spend 1000 dollars a month for the game, forget the competition. You will lose the war. You will lose the achievements. You will never get the city rewards because you have to be in top 10 for every event. Big spenders will always take away your rewards and you will always have to wait and grind. With this last update, you cannot even grind. If you want to play a free game, choose a different game. I suggest you can play Black desert or Metin2. Because Rise of kingdoms brought up this crystal material to upgrade your technology and you cannot make fully crystal technology unless you spend 2235 dollars. You have to pay two thousand dollars to be competitive player. Because without crystals you cannot have the bonusses to fight at all. You will just be a punching bag for the whales. AND this game will reset and take away your crystal every month to make sure you have to buy it again for the next fight. Also, the game will always match your kingdom with bigger and stronger kingdoms that are paying less than you, and they still get the same amounts of material just because their currency and country is different. The customer service is also the worst in the world. They will never respond to you properly. They will always ignore you.

Full of Bullying. Just stop lying! This game is just a pay-to-win game. And the early player takes all. If you are a beginner, none of the powerful alliance will let you join. So, in the beginning, you don’t have any of gaming experiences. You will be just like a farmer, farm, build, and upgrade yourselves. The funny thing is: this stupid game’s event follows Asian time zone. I’m in the U.S., and their events start in the late evening or early morning. Excuse me? It is just a game, not real life! Why should I suffer for rest less to play a game? Moreover, you will see thousands of crazy gamers here playing over days and nights. They will blame you for not contributing yourselves if you are not playing like them. Even in the kvk event, 90% of the fights start in the midnight or early morning. Well, if your power is under $25 Million, and you don’t have gold/orange commanders with gold/orange equipments, you are just giving killing points to the enemies. You will spend millions of resources and hundreds of days to treat or rebuild your troops. This game is good at killing your money by making every useful item chargeable. And, this game has many millionaires and billionaires. They seem like they can spend $100k or more every week or month to this game, and you will never be able to catch them. So, save your money and mood, don’t play this game. It is a fraud, no fairness.

If I had one wish. To start off. I want to say that I have mixed feelings about this app. I’ll start with that this game is really well built. The graphics, the idea, and the system in game is set up good. I like a lot about it. But, if I could change one thing or even have a compromise. My one wish that I wish I could see is the game to release pure f2p kingdoms but you must pay to get in (something like $5-$10 for entry) and once you are in. There is no p2w elements. No micro transactions. Everyone is on fair playing grounds at the start. If that could be added to the game. I feel like that this game will take over the genre and be over the top because to players, that won’t seem like much money to enter and they can test the game out on the kingdom servers we have now to see if they actually like the game itself and from these reviews. People really like the game but not the p2w aspect. The p2w aspect is bringing it down heavily and players are leaving because of it. I myself am not returning to the game till something changes to where there is no p2w aspects or there is an option to what I proposed with the f2p kingdoms being available, but with a entry fee. I feel like that is a fair compromise where the players get what they want and the company still makes a lot of money. I will happily come back and play and waste all of my hours on this game if that proposal gets accepted.

I ENJOY PLAYING THIS GAME MORE THAN I ENJOY MAKING MY PARTNER HAPPY!!. I truly love this game. Now I am NOT “a gamer” and neither is my man. So when I say I play A LOT it’s not what you think. But still he gets jealous even if he isn’t in the same room as me and my phone dies, hence I enjoy playing this game more than making him happy. This game is ALWAYS exciting, never gets old with all the new events to play almost everyday and always every week! Things to discover, commanders to adjust to perfections. Side games, new goals, alliance strength and honestly made some great online friends on hère. Most Leaders and almost ALL R4 will help and we have some of the BEST to helps noobs or those who are trying it to improve with new tips and tricks! I send out mknthkh to bimonthly Codes for Freebies Flm You can join 16GI Gold International presently I have been given the opportunity to be the Leader and. Oh do. I have some surprise in store, our very own side games and quizzes JUST for our alliance! My motto is you do you, chill or kill just help fulfill! By that I mean make your donations to the alliance research, and partake in Rally’s in your on. So much more to come of 16GI Gold international you gotta stay to play in a whole NEW way!

Amazing game but a few kinks. I love this game! I’m at 10,000,000 power and am running two accounts and one alliance. I have so many friends on here and they all agree for it being 5 star. We are a new law enforcement alliance for our kingdom and have central control over top left region. My school wanted us to write a report to a video game so I obviously chose this one. All my friends play and their only complaints where mostly how you couldn’t watch the armies play in first person. If you could see the armies battle and progress as you move on in the game that would be awesome. Another thing is that when you join an kingdom there are usually more powerful people in the kingdom and can push little alliances around. But if you could form formations to make the gameplay more fair. The story of the300 Spartans versus 250,000 Persians was All about strategy. So if you could make it so you could form tactics that would be cool. Then a 50,000 army would have more of a chance against a 40,000 army. And that could make battles so much more fair. Plus it would give lower level players a chance to practice. Other than that there isn’t anything major a would suggest. Me and my friends have made our own game and know how hard it is to make games. So thank you for always making the game better and trying to give us the best experience possible. Goodbye 👋!

I was skeptical... That this would be another boring CoC type game. And while it is, it’s far from boring. I find myself actually having fun gathering several items on the large playable map all while leveling up my commanders and having fun with my friends in my alliance. I would highly recommend it. The only issue that I see is late game players with very high power moving to new kingdoms, and destroying lower level people who have just began. If there were a Power Cap to when you can teleport, or a time limit depending on how long you’ve stayed in the server, this would help that issue. But other than that, this game is still rather fun. EDIT: Many months later. I believe there’s a limit to teleporting now, which is good. But the only thing I really have to add since i’ve gotten back into the game is that the ads are obnoxious and don’t really capture the essence of the game, but it still IS a GOOD game nonetheless, ads aside. Note: I stopped playing months back simply because I was burnt out over time, not because it was frustrating or anything like that. I like Vikings so coming back with a new kingdom is pretty fun this time around once again.

Super fun game (two problems). OK I have played this game for about a year now and I love it there’s always something to do. You’re never bored, there’s always new events always something to upgrade. Unlike other games in this genre, however the kingdom that I’m in or pretty much any kingdom there’s always a bully alliance. For instance the one that I am in the bully alliance is 94RG. They try and control everything including KVK, and if somebody doesn’t listen to them, then they go ahead and kill everyone and ruin the game experience for everybody. It’s totally not fun and I feel like once you reach the top you should only be allowed to stay there for a certain amount of time and then get knocked back down. Second problem, everything costs money, if you want to upgrade or get a good commander it’s money, if you want to upgrade something and not wait a month it’s money and so on… But other than that this game is incredibly good and I literally have 375 consecutive login days. I’m part of one of the top alliances. Definitely one of the best games I’ve ever played and I’m going to continue playing it for a very long time. And for anyone debating on whether to get this game or not, and if it’s going to be like all the others. It’s way better in my personal opinion and I would definitely recommend getting it. Hope this helps keep on going guys

Pros and Cons. First I believe this game is enjoyable. This was my first game like this and through ups and downs I have made a lot of new friends. I enjoy the challenge of growing and improving… a few Cons before I go into the PROs… 1. The time table for leveling up EVERYTHING…. 30 DAYS is WAYYYYYY to long… plus the expense too makes it really hard for F2P…. I do realize the company wants money and people will buy gems to jump past a lot of extra time… 2. The lack of safeguards for players being bullied in game… I’m not sure how to fix it but I can say from personal experience that bullying players should have a way to report easily. 3. The CONSTANT UPGRADES! Give the F2P players time to adjust before the next upgrade hits… there is no time between commanders before a new one evolves out… rotate upgrades to older commanders to keep F2P members in a position to have a chance to compete… 4. Make it more manageable to get to T5 so that those who can’t spend like a whale have a chance to push towards equal footing… since they cost gold all the way around Lilith will make money… Now for PROS….. Game has challenges and mini games/events that allow a constant choice of activity… You meet people from all over the world… You can build up strong alliances and support good KDs… It is WAR so causalities are a given…. But it’s also a learning process 😁

Fun but game not balanced. I’ve played RiseOfKingdoms for about 14 days now. The game is easy to learn to a degree. It teaches you how to play while you play. The game seems pretty stable at least on the server-side. But my client crashes about once a day. The game implements mechanics for civilization development and warfare. It can be fun to play for hours and hours. You don’t have to pay to play but doing so is highly encouraged by the game itself. I tend to dump about five dollars a day into the game, but it has packages that you can buy that cost 10 times or even 50 times more! My number one criticism of the game is that it can be extremely unbalanced from a gameplay perspective. For example there can be a character or a player that is 50 times as powerful as 99% of the other players! The game has PVE & PVP play. Unfortunately you can’t get away from PVP in most situations. In my 14 days of play I have encountered Goku, Who is a player that is 50 times as powerful as me. He moves through the land and decimates everything takes all the loot moves to the next area and repeats. I thought meeting GOKU was like getting struck by lightning the first time, but I’ve already encountered him twice. I encourage you to give it a try!

This is nothing like the ads it’s better. You should definitely play this game. It has battles. It has peacekeeping. There’s a little bit of ads, but they’re not that bad. It’s really good. You should definitely play it. my family doesn’t think they like it but I promise you they probably will. It’s really good. I have a PS five. It’s better than all the games on that. if there’s a perfect game, it would be this one. you should definitely try it out. I had to bind my account, but it wasn’t that hard. also, did I mention the exploring? if you were one of the soldiers, imagine what you would see the adventures you would go on. you should definitely play it for like the third or fourth time. that’s because you really should play it. did I mention how easy it is to collect and build stuff? I know I didn’t. That’s why I’m telling you now. i’m sorry if there’s any typos. but there’s a bit of bugs that you should fix. like for example. if I didn’t have enough resources to buy or research something. it was just instantly research it like I bought the instant. I don’t know if that’s for everybody, but it happened for me. and I’m actually kind of happy it happened. now I have like Calvary Bowman and stuff. I just started and I’m already hooked. I play for hours on end. and one last time you should play it.

I love this game but I need help. I have been playing this game for a while. I have made friends and run a successful alliance. Out of nowhere when I try to long in the game kicks me out. I log into the game everything is going perfect and when it comes time where it zooms into the city it kicks me out from there. I deleted the game and reinstalled it multiple times. That did not work. I updated my phone and did the same it did not work. I do not know what else to do. I need some help very fast Hello. I am a very active player on rise of kingdoms. But these past three days I have not been able to log into my account. The game it self loads in and rhen crashes. I have done everything possible to fix it. I updated my phone I deleted and reinstalled the game, I restarted my phone and I powered off my phone. So to me there is nothing else I can do. I contacted your customer service but I have gotten no response. Which is unfortunate. Anyways the way I see I could play the game again Is that I get my account deleted and I start from scratch. I really do not want to do that. I have played for a while and have a very strong alliance and have made a lot of friends. So it is not easy to delete my account. Regardless for me to play this game again I think I have to get the account deleted. So it would be very helpful for you to either fix this bug that won’t let me play. Or you delete my account.

Really great game, but not complete. Ok, so let me start out that I absolutely love the game. The game mechanics are amazing, I love the fog of war idea, and the fact that each commander speaks their native language and not English. And as a Roman and Byzantium history nerd, I love the fact that the Latin in the game is quite decent compared to other games (it isn’t perfect, but that is what you get from a dead language that doesn’t translate well into other languages). Now, I feel like the nations to choose from is very limiting. From a game about the ancient and medieval ages, Africa and the Middle East were left out, and they have some of the richest history during that time, from the African Empires that rose to power all the way to the Persian empire and the crusades. Specifically, I would like to see three more nations added: Ethiopia, Egypt, and Persia. Ethiopia rose to power after the fall of the Roman Empire and remained a powerful nation until after WW2. Persia created a very advanced civilization that grew strong and powerful and became one of the largest empires until the greeks conquered it. Then the Persian Empire reformed itself as the Sassanian Empire and conquered the remaining Romans and Byzantines to form the Ottoman Empire. I do not know much on the history of Egypt, but as one of the first powerful civilizations in human history, it should be obvious why they should be added into the game.

Strategy game that takes too long to ramp up. I’ve been playing for over 6 months, and played the entirety of KvK2. There’s a lot of issues I have with RoK that other strategy games don’t have, which is just how long it takes before most long term players say it’s fun. If you mess up before SoC, you’re done and at a massive disadvantage, even if you’re a paying player! I have spent well over $2,000 yet I still felt way behind anyone else. This game suffers the same issues as most strategy games with age, power creep. Most new characters are better than any previous ones, and you better hope you have enough golden heads to some skills maxed. New systems are released every year to keep paying players continue spending (formations system). If you quit, also good luck starting back up, you’re now forced into whatever KvK the server is in, and you’ve missed every event in between, meaning you now have to create a new character and lose all the items you spent. There is little strategy as most are just head on battles in what’s called a “ball” where your alliance goes all on one space then instantly attacks. Once that happens you’ll notice you mainly lose to T5 units, the best in the game, and take forever if you don’t spend at minimum $5,000 or over a year waiting for research. I personally would rather go with Call of Dragons, as there is more strategy involved in fights, and troops actually have range; but soon that game will have power creep too.

3 times. Played for about 2 years, spent moderately but still, it was really far from opening up T5’s..Left then came back a couple more times and there’s just too much stuff in this game! Now look all these games are pay to play, pay to stay relevant, pay to compete! I’m not sure why the free to play crowd keeps trying to play these games. All they’re gonna do is get frustrated! I played a couple hundred of these games, they’re all the same way.. just some less greedy than others. That’s what I look for… now from what I can see this game has become a total cash grab and I played their other game, Warpath..They totally destroyed that game! That game was great for the first year and it looks like I got out at the right time! Some advice to mobile gamers out there, if you’re not willing to spend even a little $$.. stop playing these games.. they’re all the same.. unless you just play to pass some time for fun! and please stop using the term pay to win..that is incorrect term.. just because you pay, does not mean you win! now I am giving it three stars because it’s a very tactical game.. which is cool. The graphics are great if you’re willing to spend probably about $500 a month.. and you can do OK in this game..Rocky :)

This game is special…. I usually don’t write reviews but I had to for this game,I usually hate games like sim city where you upgrade your city, but this game separates itself from the rest. First off there is the “pick your own civilization” thing where you pick your first general and it gives a special boost to a special attribute which I thought was awesome. Second, there is the the alliance system where you can help people in your alliance and it speeds Theo build process up, which I figured would take up some of your recourse or you could only do a certain amount a day, but no there is no harm to do it so people are constantly helping with your building times. Lastly and this is my favorite thing, is how many boosts you get completely free just for playing. I’ve played for about 2 hours a day for three days and I have like 150 1 minute build speed ups (which lets you cut the build time by however much the boost is, 1 minute will cut by 1 mi hte 5 minute will cut by 5 minutes etc) and I have like 50 5 minute build speed ups. I haven’t really noticed any long builds, mostly just long upgrades but it is nice to not have t wait for three hours for your workers to build something you need to progress. I would honestly give 5 stars if the game reduced the update time a little bit but overall a great game

Be FOREWARNED: NEW PLAYERS. I have been playing every day since January—and things are starting to change. I never had problems like this when I started (I like the game itself). I put my devoted energy into building a strong city, and I was a head of a small alliance, but now, especially in the last weeks, other players have begun to blatantly break the rules, and they are now randomly attacking smaller players and alliances. They justify this by their own rules. The leader of the main alliance sent me messages ordering me to disband our alliance (we’ve all been working together to build this, of course). His is just a plot to snatch the weaker territories. They send renegades who join our alliance, attack others at free will, then leave quickly. We get blamed, and then just yesterday, my city was attacked, I lost all my newest troops. Last week a stalker teleported on the border of our territory, and attacked all of our farmers, he sent a message “it was fun feeding off you”. This stuff is only allowed during certain events in the game. So yesterday I quit. I disbanded, and I don’t think I want to play the game anymore. If you don’t want frustrations and heartache over lost troops (for no reason), then don’t start playing this game. It will take you a long time to build a strong city, so you should look way ahead before you give up and feeling like you’ve wasted a lot of time (and money! I have spent a lot).

Game needs serious management fixes. The server my friends and I were put in is full of Asian whale accounts that spend thousands of dollars on the game and make several Alliances that are all under their “family.” This is oppressive and makes it impossible to do anything meaningful with my friends. At first when the server started, it was good, but they’ve blown up and own well over half the map. Can’t even transfer to other servers because this game’s requirements are so strict. The game is a lot of fun but it has absolutely no filter for people that make it impossible for new players. When these alliances just trade their City Hall 21 accounts between each other and stomp everyone that is five or more city hall levels below them, it’s impossible to do anything. I wish that the developers actually cared about providing a fun and fair challenge to this game instead of letting these abusive players walk all over them. That being said, if you’re planning on playing anyway, do NOT come to server #2310. It is a nightmare here and there is nowhere on the map that is safe. You can’t even harvest resources without players that are millions of power above you sending their armies to annihilate your gatherers. I hope other servers are better than this because it’s not even remotely fair.

Fun game, slight annoyance. So this game is really fun for its genre, and having played games like clash of clans coming to this is actually a breath of fresh air, as this game is well made and cares about the players. There are a lot of systems giving depth, but they aren’t so complex that you can’t understand them easily. I think the politics is one of my favorite things, to give an example my clan recently built a castle but some members are scattered and rando people are just in our territory, so me and several other clan members are pressuring the non clan members to leave the territory, which is kinda fun. My one real complaint beyond some kinda ridiculous things like building upgrade times being obscenely high, like 9 hours for a level 9 town hall upgrade. Having the time reducers is a nice mechanic, but it’s all too easy to burn thru them quickly. Another issue is on the map where forests can make it so you can’t move a building into what should be open space. An ability to remove forests on the map or move the positions of resource gathering points if they are in your clan territory would be really neat. Other than that this is really cool and definitely different from those that look like it

Addictive!. This is one of the most addicting games I’ve ever played. I literally spend about 8 hours a day playing this. 😂 there’s so much you can do, from rearranging your city the way you want it, sending scouts to explore, farming recourses, scouting enemies, rallying attacks on other kingdoms/alliances, and lets not forget all of the rewards you get for completing daily challenges! They bring new things to the game all the time so you’ll never be bored! Right now they have a ‘Wheel Of Fortune’, where you can win legendary items, training speed ups for your troops, commander XP... ect. The only time you’ll ever feel bored while playing this game, is when you’re upgrading your buildings and have sent all of your troops/scouts out and there’s nothing left to do. 😂 Now, if you’re reading my review and you’re still unsure of if you want to download ‘RISE OF KINGDOMS’ because you saw someone give it one or two stars along with a bad review, just remember that no one will ever be completely happy with any game. You’ll always have people ‘b!tching’ about things they hate about the game or how it needs ‘FIXED’ 😂 but you won’t know until you see for yourself. So download this game, and come join us on ‘R.O.K.’ 🙂🤷🏻‍♀️

I suggest we have a gem bank building in the game.. I am a player who has played ROK for 568 days now and has unlocked T5. I love this game and the commanders since they look fantastic—especially Joan Prime with the wings. But there is one issue I think the game needs to do better the gem issue. Most of the events in-game required gems, I spent about two hundred dollars each month to buy bundles but it seemed like that was not enough since the events were next to each other. So, I suggest we should have a gem bank, where the player can save their gem in there and receive back an interest maybe 10% each month for the number of gems that they save in there. This will help solve the low-on-gem issue of the new player and free-to-play players and players who spent medium like me. Also, one more thing that needs to be fixed is the event calendar of the Not Only Gem event, and the Wheel of Fortune event. I am VIP 15 and spend 50k of gems on the 2 days of the Not Only Gems event to receive rewards, so basically I don't have enough gem to play the Wheel of Fortune event since it is a week after the Not Only Gems event. So, if you can please make both events happen at the same time, it will make more sense than making the player have to choose between one of them.

Football lover’s review. It’s an awesome and amazing game, and I play it all the time. I play this game about 6-8 hours a day or less. It’s a great game, but I’m gonna go over some problems but they’re not really that big of a deal. 1 so I know how you have to train your troops to get better but I don’t get why you have to use so much wood in like 30,000 food just to upgrade a little bit of troops but like I said it’s not that big of a deal. 2 I know I said it’s not that big of a deal but I don’t get why it takes like a day or 30 days or like a month just to upgrade City Hall. 3 I don’t get why it’s not that hard to get food and would love for me. It’s kind of hard just to get 50,000 stone, but it’s not a big big deal I just don’t get why it takes a while. 4 last one, so some days when I play this game and I’m like three hours in and I tried to attack a colony it just won’t let me attack their flag and I don’t get it like I try to sneak up on them, but it won’t let me attack or make a rally attack on them. anyway, thank you for viewing my review and I hope you have a great rest of your day bye.😄

Release kvk already. This game is fun at first when the server you’re on is starting out, making alliances and allies as you go for the same goal of taking the lost temple. But once you’re invested about 6+ months into the game, it comes down to nothing but same events that has trash reward pay offs. When compensation comes around for mt it’s always the same maybe 300 gems and a golden key if lucky, but nothing new for free to play events to compete against the few guys that have dropped atleast 50,000 bucks to reach over 100m power with 5 million minimum T5s when most are still rocking only T4s, you need to balance the game out to make it more f2p as we wait for kvk to happen but you keep pushing it back and losing more players on older kingdoms, that are farming low amounts for higher resource cost. Start making more Ark of Osiris for us to atleast enjoy waiting for an endless time for kvk to happen. Plus the fact some kingdoms get bonuses on their tiles of a 3.5x bonus amount to farm makes me believe the devs play on those kingdoms hence why they farm for an lvl 6 farm for 1.8m at a time while we all farm for only 504k on a lvl 6. Unlock merging kingdoms already atleast, so the ones wanting to join the kingdom I’m on with 2 of the Top 5 overall highest power players can give us something to work into play over just lame kill event

I want to like this game but I can’t.. I’m giving this game 3 Stars (If you wanted to do what I did and join the game with your friends or in my case siblings and start your own alliance.) because you can’t do that, there is a system called “immigration” and it’s so difficult to get into the same kingdom as your friends and start an alliance. They give you a “beginners immigration pass” at the start that does nothing because when you try to immigrate it will say one of a few things barring you from doing so, either it will say “current season not supported.” Or it will say “Entry of Governers with beginner pass not yet capped” whatever that means but essentially you have 10 days from the day you start to immigrate to another kingdom and if you dare upgrade past city hall 7 they take it from you, if you are a solo player that likes to interact with only strangers in the world and join an existing alliance, or start one and recruit people in the kingdom the game gives you its 5 stars. Because the game itself if fun but for me wanting to play it with my family I have to grind all the way up to city hall 16! And so do they. It’s ridiculous go place state of survival because they don’t make it hard to join your friends.

The ads are absolutely nothing like the game. The game play itself isn’t the best but it definitely is not terrible. The one thing that makes me (and everyone I know) hate this game are the ads, the ads are awful and whatever you call clickbait for games. They are the most clickbait, awful, scummy, annoying ads. I can’t express enough how clickbait these ads are and I’m warning everyone who plays this IT IS NOTHING LIKE THE GAME! The ads started out fine saying you start with a kingdom and work your way up to be among the best of the kingdoms, but now they say stuff like “oH nO mY kInGdOm Is UnDeR aTtAcK i’M gOnNa HaVe To FlEe” which is another thing you can’t do in this game you can’t do anything it says you can in the ads. It is the most scummy thing I’ve ever seen, it gets little kids to think they’re gonna play a really cool kingdom game where you play as a king roaming around the kingdom, but when they get it they just get a mediocre game that you only really play once and has very little game mechanics. I know that the developers won’t respond because they are a bunch of low life scum bag cowards, so here is a message to the developer- Reply to me like a man and I don’t want some robot auto response I want a real human response and demand to change the ads so they are not clickbait, otherwise you will be a coward for not responding to me and a scum bag for scamming kids. I bet that makes you feel good, scamming kids.

Great game but short for f2p. This is an amazing game and honestly I don’t have many negative opinions towards it. The problem comes when you are f2p. Upon entering a new server you will have approximately a month before you are essentially pushed out of a lot of end game content because you are viewed as being “too weak” compared to the players that have bought their way to having very high power. They will eventually all group together and keep you from being able to join a lot of the later content. As a F2P player you have you find yourself being content with the constant threats of being kicked out of stronger alliances because of low power since you can’t keep up with spenders and eventually being kicked out or being content with just farming and doing the same round of events every few weeks. Kingdom vs Kingdom won’t happen in most cases because you won’t be allowed. I’ve started in many many different servers over the past 2 years and it always happens the same way. If you can afford to pour money into this game, then I totally recommend it. If your like me and can’t afford to spend tons of money on a mobile game then go in understanding that after around a month, maybe a little longer, your going to be seen as useless because you won’t be able to keep up with the spenders.

F2P Players Beware!!!. Good game but the difference of power between free to play players and pay to win players is ridiculously huge. In most events, it’s mostly p2w players who come out on top and as a result get better commanders and equipment. Basically, the stronger get stronger and the weaker stay weak. This game does nothing to help f2p players stand against p2w players. A p2w player can just buy his way into training hundreds of thousands of troops while it takes a whole day for a f2p to train two thousand. Worst thing is you only start to realize that this game is p2w later on in the game when you’ve already invested so much. I’m done with this game, I can’t play a game where it takes f2p players many months just to max one commander while it just takes a week for a pay to win player to max one out. It’s insane how huge of an advantage p2w players get over f2p players. This isn’t going to change anytime soon either, Lilith is receiving too much money from big spenders to change the game for a more level and fair playing field for all players. FREE TO PLAY PLAYERS, BEWARE. P.S : I’m aware that the developers have a family to feed and bills to pay but it’s not that hard to put limits on how much money one person can spend in a week, like seriously, there are people who’ve spent over $200,000 dollars in this game since the game’s release which was in September of last year. That’s around $500 dollars per day.

It’s good but can be really unfair. I’ve had to come back 3 times to edit this because I found new stuff. First I spent $15 in this game, It’s a good and interesting game that I play a lot throughout the day but somehow people go up to 2.8 million power after almost 4 weeks, I’m only at 1.5 million and I started on the first day the kingdom went up. Then there’s all these big alliances kinda forcing you to be an academy or merge with them that are at 60 million power? Can anyone explain any of this? I also practically made my alliance on the first day but it got up to 14 million and then got wiped out because I wouldn’t merge that’s just not fair they need to put more rules in against bullying little alliances. Also there’s individual people with 16 million power or more in a 27 day kingdom. Also I just saw someone leave an alliance in the kingdom chat saying to his old 61 million power alliance that he’s sorry I’m not into attacking little alliances that are at only 3 million one person from his old alliance said we never did that but then he joins another alliance because I saw his alliance tag change then a few minutes later after saying that he lost his new alliance tag and said I could send him an invite into my new alliance because he doesn’t have one so what I’m saying is if the big powered alliances are really friendly then you saying just one thing and that isn’t that big of a deal and leaving that alliance will cut off youre ties with the other big alliances.

Customers mean nothing. This game is exactly what it looks. Grab and bait. I’ve played this game for 3 years. Let me break it down of how Lilith ruined this game. First year when this game came out, this game was fun and enjoyable. Players received a lot of rewards from events, drop rates of gems from barbarians were amazing and etc. Lilith decided to add an update that “prevented” boting but in reality hindered fighters from helps and making players have to use a lot speeds to heal or buy bundles for speeds. Later, Lilith decided to nuke rewards and introduce SOC and crystal tech. As if this game was bad enough as it was for being P2W. Now you must buy crystal bundles to max tech in order to compete against whales in the field. Such a rip off. As I decided to quit the game and update was added to give players the quit button for Apple users. I asked Lilith to delete my account and erase my personal information. Guess what? Lilith has once again made it extremely impossible to do something simple. They have asked me so much information and once I have provided that info, they said no and that my account was a VIP account. I warn everyone, beware of this rip off company. They DO NOT care about their community that gives them money, always finding ways to squeeze money out of players and will do whatever it takes to make your life difficult.

Could be a great game but too much p2w. Addendum: I am dropping my rating another star. Seems the devs made some error in rewards during Osiris and gave out more coins then they intended. They took back items purchased or unused coins so many of us now have negative stars/statues/keys. It’s a shame that this company chose to punish their customers for their mistake. I will most likely quit the game because of this; I’m just too discouraged by the setback and disregard of the company for their players. I have been playing several hours a day, every day, for 8 months and, with about $75 invested, am CH25 but still only at 22mil power on this account. Significant , but not really that competitive over all. I am being held back by the need for gems that require real money to make any significant difference. Meanwhile, as others note, there are players who spend thousands of dollars and therefore have the ability, and sometimes the temperament, to flatten any in their way. I had quit an earlier game because of one such player and have had 3 teammates quit just this week in current kingdom because of this. Some of the events, like mighty governor, are always won by the high dollar p2w. It is no longer competitive nor fun so I no longer even try to earn a spot; I just cower in my city during KE. There needs to be a threshold for the p2w folks. For example, once you spend over, say, $500 or reach 50 million power, you must migrate to kingdoms set aside for those players.

Good Game, Bad Culture. Hmmm…my original review was deleted, I guess I hit a nerve with the developer. I’ll try again. I’ve only played RoK a few days and so far it seems like the best game in this genre, unfortunately there is one game-breaking exception: jumpers. The game enables players to change servers indefinitely as long as their city hall doesn’t surpass level 7. It’s created a weird culture in the game where every new kingdom is flooded with people who have strong accounts and create a significant imbalance from the get-go. There is an event during the first week with rewards based on the most powerful, etc.—the jumpers go to the new kingdom, get all the top rewards, bully people then leave to do it again in the next kingdom. Sometimes some of the jumpers decide to stay and since they’ve already been building their accounts for months, they automatically dominate the kingdom. It’s also difficult to find an active alliance as a new player because of all the jumper alliance requirements. Either you spend or you end up in a dead alliance. RoK could easily level the playing field by capping the number of days new accounts are able to jump. Only allowing someone to move to a new server during the first 3 days of an account would eliminate the problem. It doesn’t seem likely the developer will ever do that though since “jumping” seems to be the vast majority of the player base.

Dear Lilith Games…. You produce advertisements that reflect on game content and to promote said content, this is what I’ve read in every review criticizing your adverts. This is not true, the content is typically poorly produced and does not reflect the new in-game content. You form the adds in a way that gives off the illusion that some kingdoms are far superior than others, leading to less diversity in the game because every new player wants to be the best. Now, you do reflect how the basics of how the game works in the adds, so that is something I will credit you for. Although, the content viewed is extremely repetitive, showing nothing new. And the BIGGEST problem, is the amount of advertising for this game. You haven’t shown new content in them, you haven’t shown any reasons this game is better than others, the quality is abominable (lip syncing, animating almost everything so there is limited actual gameplay, stupid situations, repetitive gameplay, and generally irritating “storylines”) If I’ve gotten nearly 80 Rise of Kingdoms advertisements in a week, I probably wouldn’t want to download it. I used to play AFK Arena, but after seeing your new advertisements for the game, I’m deleting it, for I’m frankly embarrassed that I even put any time in the game. Fix your problems, and maybe I’ll consider you a quality game producer, instead of a uninteresting, money hungry developer. -Hoping for change, and awaiting something new. This review was made by a active “gamer”.

I love this game I would kiss it if I seen it irl. I've been playing "Rise of Kingdoms" for a while now, and it’s easily one of the most engaging mobile strategy games I’ve come across. The game allows you to choose from a variety of civilizations, each with its own unique style, commanders, and special units, which keeps things fresh and interesting. I love the real-time battle mechanics—it’s so satisfying to see my troops move across the map and engage in skirmishes or full-scale wars. The alliance system is another highlight for me; working together with other players to conquer territories and defend against attacks really adds a sense of camaraderie and teamwork. The graphics are surprisingly good for a mobile game, with colorful visuals and detailed animations that make the world feel alive. There’s always something to do, whether it's upgrading buildings, training troops, or participating in special events, which keeps the game from feeling repetitive. However, I do have to mention that the game leans heavily toward a pay-to-win model, especially as you progress to higher levels. It can be frustrating to see other players pull ahead just because they’re willing to spend more money. That said, if you’re willing to be patient and strategic, you can still have a great time without spending much. Overall, "Rise of Kingdoms" is a fantastic game for anyone who loves strategy and building games, and I'm still enjoying every minute of it.

I Love ROK!!!. So I loved this game, but then everyone was a higher level than me, and they had more power. I was going to get married, but a man showed up and told her that he had more power than me, and she dumped me and left with him. Many were telling me to join the Vikings, a powerful clan, but I had to pass on the offer. I am not skilled enough to be a Viking! I did not know how to handle this stress. I could not stop thinking about the man. Years later, I decided to ask him for some tips. He was a nice man and he yet again told me to join the Vikings. Normally, I ignore this, but his power level was too high to ignore. I joined the Vikings and I was finally good at this game. In only a week I had 2 million power! I played the game for months and months, and I k ow have a power level of 10 trillion power! All though this man taught me everything I knew about ROK, but he had also taken my wife! I knew what I had to do. I told my wife I had a higher power level than the man. She thought about it for a second, and she made the choice to be my wife again! I was so happy to hear this. Ten years later I have 69 quadrillion power on ROK! This game changed my life from miserable, and having no power, to having an amazing wife, all the power I could ever ask for, and I am living in a mansion with my three beautiful children. Thank you ROK!

Bug Fixes and new suggestions!!. Hi Dev Team of RoK! As you might have thought that there were not any bugs, there’s one I wanna share with you. So you know when you press the alliance button it goes to your alliance right? (if you have one) Well when you press shop in your alliance and try to restock something, And if you tap something at the top and scroll down to the bottom and tap something else, then that something at the top will still have that white border and will allow you to tap on multiple stuff. I had fun with the bug but then got annoyed quickly. Please fix this. Ok about the new mode. How about a bowling mode that allows you to bowl for prizes using currency such as items or such short. A new feature on the world map would be bushes!! A player can hide from someone if they are in a bush but it costs 1k coins to check a bush and that’s how you can reveal the player. If the player notices this then he gets a warning (you know, the red things on the side!) and can make a run for it while being invisible for 3 seconds! Now how about that! Please add these features!! I put a lot of time in this review and I love this game and adding these would make it better!!

Needs a lot of work. Let me point some issues. So, during a rally attack that is canceled due to no players, the lead commander’s army (canceled army) goes out for a few seconds, then all of a sudden goes back in. Why doesn’t it just stay in the city since it already there? Also, the people are right about immigration. It has good and bads, but overall it needs a fixture. We have people from enemy kingdoms getting enlisted as Rank 4 (Officer). Please fix the immigration! Oh, and lemme tell new players why this game needs MASSIVE changes: the balancing system. So, I started in a kingdom (2780, Kingdom of Langollen) just to find out 6 months later I joined a kingdom with a lot of people who were destroying people left and right for nothing. That right there needs a balancing system for new players. This part needed a special touch to it. The justice system is crazy bad! My kingdom has no real justice in it. I was in an authorized alliance (still am and an authorized alliance is one recognized as an okay alliance), and someone frames me by attacking MY farm and attacked others in the opposing alliance(unauthorized, barely on, and expanding too much). Then I wake up to “don’t worry the rank 4 and leader are under council control” from the kingdom queen. But I still get attacked. Make a justice system or fix a not-working one, pls

Great game…but a few problems. RoK is a great game and I spend hours a day on it. There is always something you can do so I am never bored. There are so many great things about this game that I love… 1. Great way to meet new people 2. All the various events like the mightiest governor and warpath are fun to accomplish 3. Having you and your allies send armies to take out shrine guardians and barbarian camps. 4. Wars…fighting other governors is so much fun (and can be stressful waiting to see if they will strike back) and taking down other alliances There are a few issues though… 1. Sometimes the game crashes when I try to switch between chats 2. It is super unfair when a really strong person joins another alliance you are in a war against and attacks all your alliances cities and resource points and then goes back to their original alliance 3. Troop training time is WAY TOO LONG. Please make it shorter because I hate waiting about 12 hours for 900 lvl 3 units. Thanks for the great game! So I am forced to drop my rating a star because the customer service is poor and is SUPER UNHELPFUL. Also it says the game is for people 9+, but it is not true. I would not let your kids play this game until they put a content moderation thing in the chat because a lot of it is not kid friendly.

Read to the end :). A wonderful strategy game! I’ve always been a bit disappointed with games like Clash of Clans which though they have a bunch of strategic options don’t allow you to freely move your troops once placed. Rise of Kingdoms has fully fulfilled and exceeded my expectations of what an open field strategy warfare game should be, to find success in this game you don’t need to spend any money (I haven’t) all you need to do is get your base leveled up quickly by using the speed ups and completing quests. One of the top priorities you should have is to join a strong alliance, even if you want to start one of your own it will probably only succeed if you have 1,000,000+ power because everyone wants a good leader, so join a good alliance and they can help you speed up your builds and reinforce your kingdom. Exploring is a big part of RoK so make sure to upgrade your scout camp so you can discover as many things as possible! In closing I was really satisfied with the unique speed ups that are unlike any other game I’ve seen and work REALLY well, and I hope you have a great time playing RoK!-Drowah of the Empathy alliance

Addiction. This game is the best I’ve played. Not because of graphics or small things that surely will be improved in the future. Because of the base of active players and how serious this game is taken. It takes you to another level, you will find friendship and camaraderie, it involves high levels of strategy, and truly gives a place for leaders to be born. It is a whole other world that Will envelope you and your time. If you don’t have several hours a day to dedicate to the teamwork involved, you will likely not succeed and become part of the bigger picture. I love the game mechanics, however I would say there are some downfalls. Things are so expensive that, the ones with big pockets are the ones that succeed best. You will see a mix of power players, those who are not wise and strategic who only succeed from the money spent, and those who dedicate completely to the game and put effort and hard work in rather than their wallets. I wish that we would get more for the money when making purchases. I also wish that members can share items and gems with other members, maybe make it only so leaders and officers can share, this way the leadership of the alliance truly picks the members up.

Was punished for something I wasn’t even online for. This is insane. I didn’t participate in an event, I wasn’t chosen to participate in this event, and I wasn’t even online at the time. But when I did sign back on I got mail that said my account was fined for unsportsmanlike conduct. Then I was told by customer support that it was because I didn’t participate in an event. Basically I was told that even though I didn’t sign up, wasn’t chosen, and wasn’t online that my account could get banned. So just be aware. If you have a job and don’t devote 100% of your time to this game your account could get banned. When I tried to ask customer support about it again they stopped replying. So good job. I once again tried to reach out to customer service. I explained I didn’t register for the event. The answer I got was the exact same. “If you registered for the event but did not participate your reputation will be deducted.” I DID NOT REGISTER. I SPECIFICALLY DIDNT BECAUSE I HAD TO WORK. I’ve said that several times but I keep getting the same answer. This is insane. I’m going to quit the game completely at this point. Customer service is completely unhelpful. You get punished by the game devs themselves for not participating in something you didn’t register for and there no way to fix it or talk to anyone. This is game is a complete waste of time. STAY AWAY.

Great Game but...... Honestly probably the most well developed free game I have ever played only thing about it is it is very easy for players to put to win. I’ve been playing the game for about a year or so. So there is a lot to do and plenty of content and events but if your alliance doesn’t have what is known as a whale or two you’re pretty much screwed. So players that appreciate the game and how it has been developed really get screwed over. I understand the need for in game purchases as it is a free to play game but when the whole game is based around a competitive multiplayer world where everyone is racing to get troop tier five anyone who is able to drop hundreds to thousands of dollars on the game are able to dominate the servers and can switch between them. God forbid that one alliance consists of all of the whales in the server that entire server would become unplayable. And for those of you still confused as to what a whale is it’s someone who pays to be months ahead of everyone else so that way they can essentially one hit you or dominate the world without fear. If the developers would just slowly but surely shift the purchases to purely cosmetic the game would be 100x better. Or even make the vip system account based as opposed to character based. Understand the game is very dynamic and ever changing just be wary of the pay to win system

Good game. This is actually good but just to say that the ads about it seem to be nothing compared to the game but some ads show like ways to improve in the game, which I like. I’ve been playing for some time and it’s pretty cool… But some ads show some people with millions of power, I understand the progress. But, getting resources is key because it will help you with the tech tree more because being bankrupt in resources means that you have to get all your way back to your place. Other things I liked to talk about the civilizations. The game with having all these civilizations but I chose Rome because ads suggested me about its ability, but I realized that Spain is pretty better because giving a way higher change in resources, I’ve been trying to change my civilization to Spain but the main thing is that you'll need to grind a-lot! Some ways I’ve gotten gems where by a survey, but to be real, I think overall this game is good but I hope the devs don’t continue these fake versions of the real game because you see these hate vids making jokes about ad vr reality and really wish for more updates soon too the game. Now, Byeeee!

Good game but. I love the game I like the alliance system where you can really help my people in your alliance by taping on the help button when ever I help my alliance I fell like I am in a community I like the gathering system instead of attacking everyone to get resources like in other games all u need to do is build an army and go to the gathering spot and wait until its all gathered now my down side is it keeps crashing I can only do 2-4 things before it crashes and often loads slow however my iPad is old but iPads these days are very expensive back to the review also GET new building system I find it's really hard to move stuff around in your city there should be any option where you can remove everything and all your buildings are on the side bar and you can place it all back like dominations that game has a good building system anyway great game good job and have a nice day

My overview and Thoughts of the game :). I absolutely love this game! Watching the troops march out is great and being able to specialise your commanders to specific units etc! Plenty of rewards and constantly ways to keep playing without getting bored waiting for upgrades. I love the progression as well and nearly everything in general however there are some problems I have encountered so far. The first one is that I haven’t received some boosts and 1500 gems from the o Tannenbaum which was very disappointing after grinding for the decorations :( and the second is when you search for example a lvl 6 food cropland and then right after try to search a stone deposit it will search onto the cropland again. Other than that I’m KEEN to see where this game goes in the future as it has huge potential and I’m excited to be apart of the journey :)

Best strategy game. This game is a relaxing and enjoyable game that involves many things in it that you can enjoy. I’ve been playing for 3 months and have spend $300 dollars on the game, might cost a pretty penny but in my opinion it’s worth it. Download the game and at least play for a bit to experience the good stuff. Some people dislike it because it takes a while to get good but at the same time it’s not like it 5 mins your gonna be destroying other players. I love it when I attack others in the game and win, I also like it sometimes when I lose because I know I help others while losing too, so it’s not always awful. Overall I think this game is an amazing game and you try it out.

Great game, community building. I have played this game for a while, one of the best features has to be the community and atmosphere, you can create and build a community of comrades and friends from all around the world, to play and enjoy the game with. The rotating events schedule is also a great feature as you have constantly changing but familiar events occurring ( adding a few new ones every now and then as well). I love the historical component Calvary, archers infantry and historical commanders to discover and develop, newer strategy games tend to be about equipment and tech but here strategy and diplomacy are the key requirements.

I cannot believe my eyes!. I have been an avid gamer for 30 years and this game you would play just for the graphics! These images you see above are actual game play images! I also love the voices of the champions, especially the Arab (?) guy. I can’t understand him, but he sounds amazing. And otherwise the game is just perfect. Retiring has never been so good. 😊 Just one small criticism: there is a background sound that I think resembles a bustling city, which is fine. However, every 20 seconds or so, a guy calls out “Hey hooo” in the background. Every 20 seconds, is 120 times in an hour, which gets VERY annoying. I have now switched off the game sounds to avoid that, but that also turns off all other game sounds, which is a shame. Otherwise, you’ve got yourselves a winner, my friends!

Worst P2W Game Ever. Let me start by saying this is the best pvp multiplayer game I’ve ever played but that is where my praise stops. To give you a few facts the best and unbeatable armies are tier 5 troops, impossible to play against unless you have T5. For the average F2P player it will take you 12-18 months to achieve T5, a new server I recently started playing on we have a 62 million player with 500k T5 troops AFTER ONLY 17 DAYS. The Chinese and Koreans spend tens of thousands of dollars on this game and will gladly destroy any progress you make and waste any money you have spent to dominate the server. There is no balance in the game and those that spend the most will dominate others providing your on the winning side, if on the losing side your money is wasted. I have played on 5 different servers spending an average of $500 - $1500 (most I spent) on a server only to be bullied, harassed, & intimidated. Do not play this game unless you are willing to either play for free (and be dominated) or spend $10,000usd to run with the big boys if you spend any less than that you might as well flush your money down the toilet as you will end up having your castle zeroed and quitting in frustration. WORST best game ever but typical of Lilith

Enjoyable and relaxed. Pretty good game. The current setup is suited for both play styles PVE and PVP. You are not forced to PVP for resources, you can simply build troops and farm resources around the map. Alliances and event notices pre-warn you when certain events are about to commence (eg PVP), so you know not to send out your troops for a period of time, if you are not the aggressive type. In saying that, if you like attacking things, but not other players, there are NPC variants which are reasonably balanced but not overpowered. Yes there are micro-transactions, but at the same time it’s not enforced or required. Bare in mind some things require them if you want to go down that path (use a certain commander -for memory only one- and wish to unlock some abilities but need to purchase). Personally I have purchased a couple of things to support the developers because it is an enjoyable experience, especially playing with mates around the world on other operating devices. Toddy

Money hungry game. I’ve been playing this game for a year and all I’ve seen is how this game just looks for ways to make money. Every single update is getting worse where I barely get as much gold heads as I use too. You make it extremely hard for low spenders and people that just want to play for fun with their friends to get anywhere on this game. When you hold discussions on how to make this game better do you just look at the option that racks in more money. I’ve been on your discord where you basically ignore the cry out for change from your own gaming community. I recommend no one download and waste their time on this game because in the future it’s just going to be a stepping stone and fade into dead game. That one star goes out to all the hard working F2P players and people that are wasting their money on this game who are being neglected. Have nice day you greedy ****s

Rise of kingdoms. It’s a great game it’s a great game it has real characters in the speedups and like other games like it it’s amazing I love the graphics could probably use a couple more characters and some more units but it’s a really great game so I reckon you should probably play it me and my brother have been playing it for two days and I always think it’s amazing and progression feel so what’s the word easy but satisfying like you feel like you accomplish something even though it isn’t impossibly hard it’s really interesting in that sense it is so many things for you to do when you’re waiting for things to upgrade and if you don’t want things to take awhile to upgrade then just speed them up

Something you could add. Rise of Civilisations is a amazing game which you can never get bored of. I have found that when sending allaince mails many people don’t read or acknowledge them at all. I’m suggesting that you add a feature specific to the R4 and R5 of the alliance to be able to see who is looking at the mails you send. Also you could add a response button so that people actually read the entire thing and don’t just click on it and get out of it to remove the notification. Other than that little improvement this game is incredible with great potential for this game.

Good game. I mean what's there to say, it's a well made game, the gems aren't a thing that you have to spend real money on and there are perks that don't take 200 hours to get. They put thought into the game and how to keep an audience and it worked! There's always something to do, I find myself coming back everyday to claim my VIP points so I can level up and receive more perks. The idea of civilisations and being able to change them every so often is nice. It's just a really well made enjoyable game, I'd say it's better than hayday and clash of clans and all those other games we all grew up with. I also like how you get rewards for doing simple stuff and you can use the gems to get speed ups for building things and in the risky chests as well, really useful. 9/10 because you'll never know if there'll be anything better

Plz read this !. This is by far the best game I have ever played ! This game I just amazing with no flaws I just want to encourage you guys and pleas keep this game going I hope this game never stops I will definitely help you amazing developers out I will surly invest money in this game As I said this game has no flaws literally ! If there’s one thing I want it would be to add the Mongol civilisation If you could do that I will be more than thankful Keep going ! 👍👍 COME AND CONQUER 😎 Just an edit I can give you ideas for mongol civilisation Firstly architecture could be like nomad tents or modern Mongolian architecture For troops you could have Mongolian troops which would be cavalry And starting commander could be ether Noyan, Togay , or Genghis Khans son or sons Thanks hope you read this 😃

Superb and enjoyable. At first i thought this game wasn't even that good before i downloaded it, then i decided i will try it out and see how it is. I am glad i did it is definitely 1 of the best games i have played on mobile. The tutorial is excellent it teaches you how to play in a way that allows you to know just about all there is to know about the game, it isnt a very difficult game and you dint have to pay money for stuff like VIP which in other games you normally do, the system is simple yet brilliant. Overall i am really enjoying this game and would highly recommend this game.

Why I rated 4 stars. If your child is under the age of 17 this game is really fun but it does show inappropriate content to children but otherwise this game is great and is really fun to play with friends and make friends but just be careful if your child is playing this game because they could see inappropriate content like nudity, sexual scenes and black mail even You also have to be carful that there are adults playing this game so your kid has to be careful who there watching or talking to in rise of kingdoms What I really want to happen is rise of kingdoms kick these sorts of people out of the community for showing inappropriate content to children and that’s why I rate it 4 stars

This game is Amazing!. I have been playing other games and I keep seeing this ad that is rise of kingdoms and I saw the ad everyday. I soon got very annoyed so I decided to download the game. Little did I know this is the best game created. Building your own kingdoms, training your troops, levelling up your commanders, going at war with other kingdoms, joining a Alliance and so much more. This game is a blast and I can’t believe it’s free! You should definitely download RiseOfKingdoms its so fun! P.s (the only downside of this game is the very long waiting time which I think they could change as it causes the player to get bored and I just don’t like needing to wait 24hr for building something.)

Quitting game. I’ve previously rated this game at 5 stars but after being attacked so constantly for the past week, I have to lower it down. Yes this game was created in China and as a result, Chinese players have a big advantage over the game in terms of city power - since many of them have played this game longer. However, it draws a line when throughout so many kingdoms, Chinese players and alliances are granted a giant monopoly and many players from continents other than Asia are being constantly attacked. I’m not just hatefully bashing them with lies, the top alliances in my kingdom (1566) (mostly Chinese) are filled with people intent on terrorising all the players. They do actions such as appearing to attack you by having their troops march towards you but then move somewhere else at the last moment, its absolutely terrifying. I’m not even considered a ‘noob,’ I have been playing for nearly two months now consecutively and I had 5M power. I love this game so much because of how fun and simple it is but the unfair way players from Asia (not even being racist, I’m Chinese myself) are intent on terrorising all the players really makes me angry with this. Unless this problem is somehow improved by having new players an equal chance of rising in power, I’m afraid I won’t be playing this anymore.

Good game but some problems. Hello The game (rise of kingdoms) is a really interesting and fun game to play but there are some problems I am having to play it when I get in the game and load in and all that give or take 5 minutes it crashes I am playing on iPhone 6 it can be a bit annoying which is a shame because I really enjoy the game I am a bit confused so if anyone could give me some suggestions or help in any way I would appreciate it mainly the developers again I really like the game and I would like to get a proper experience from it thank you and goodbye

Beautifully addictive but found wanting. First off I have to say that this is the best mmo game I’ve played on a mobile device period. The game play is fluid, the graphics are outstanding, the community thrives and there’s no forced pvp play in order to progress and become such a strong governor that other alliances will actively seek you out to join them and gain even more strength! Teamwork is key in the alliance and it’s great to be part of this game however, this game is marred by two things, one is the alliance power level scaling, one false move against another alliance and you’ll find yourself overpowered and outnumbered before you even know what hit you. It’s depressing to a degree and second is the pay to win (pay to grow) structure. The devs have made the game feel like it’s heavily implied to be a pay to win system when it comes to resources after being attacked, building your city, certain events that run and the cost of resources required to gain rewards and features like cosmetics, golden keys, teleports, chests and more.

Some Game improvements that would be very nice. In the alliance system you should add a last activity logger so the leaders of the Alliances can kick people out who are not active. Also you guys should add training que slots. Where you can que up multiple slots of training soldiers. For example I que up 5 lots of infantry and it will be done in 5 hours instead of coming back each hour to collect and train new troops. Apart from what I suggest, this game is really good. You guys care about the visuals of the game and systems, compared to other games that are similar which compared to yours are not even great since all they do it quick cash grab then never improve. Great job for creating a good game!

Eh, pretty good but gets a bit boring. The games very fun to play at the start, with all the civilisations and commanders it starts off very intriguing and interesting. But after a few months I have notices a pattern in the game with me and my friends. You start having lots of fun but then slowly the game becomes increasingly repetitive and boring, if you’re in a faction/clan they commonly slowly start to become inactive with no one playing the game. I have tried getting back into it multiple times and it seems so easy but after a week you just forget about it. Also it is so easy to get bullied by a larger faction, very frustrating having your hard earned resources taken away. Overall it’s very fun game but I wish it was more interesting after the first rush and excitement when you first start playing it. 7.5/10

Pretty good. Been playing for a while now and the game hasn’t disappointed, you get to choose you your kingdom turns out and you choose what you develop. However there are a few little things that bother me, 1 we get so many commanders and the most we can dispatch is 5 marches so you get 10 commanders total, it would be nice if that limit was increased a little. 2 you can have scouts at the start of the game to explore fog caves and other cities but afterwards they become kinda useless, it would be nice to have another role for them where they are more useful. 3 alliance loads are useful if you want to gather on the map without the fear of being attacked and when gathering you have few limits as to how much you can take ( depending on how much you commanders and troops can carry) however it is difficult in higher alliances because people are powerful and can take much more so you end up with a smaller amount, I think this limits people’s potential so I think the limit should be raised by further developing more alliance technology specifically for gathering. 4 upgrading the castle and towers take forever to upgrade because you need special items to upgrade them, books and arrows of resistance however these can be really difficult to get because there a few ways to get them and you don’t get a lot I would like more ways to obtain these through events or increase the amount people can obtain.

Really good game. Been playing for a while but it needs ,more improving especially for f2p players as well as paying ones . It’s the same thing over and over again after every kvk only reason why I still play is chatting to the players that makes me wanna keep playing . Lilith you need to fix migration for lower level players who don’t spend especially when you got whales coming back in to season 2 with t5 and people have only just started . Call of dragons is a good game with extra activities to do . Do more improvement with your updates especially with the amount of money that people put into playing to keep this software going it Needs more excited .

Not starting and crashing!!!. So I have no clue what happened but my game was working fine and I was sorting my alliance out getting ready to attack another alliance and them out of no where the game freezes and stops working so I did what everyone else does and double taps the home button and swipes up right. Then I went back into the game and it started loading but stopped on 74% so I left it for a bit and nothing happened after about 5 minutes and then the game crashed on the loading screen so I was a bit confused. I went back into the game and it just won’t load in it keeps stopping on 74% and won’t load at all I’ve left it for about 20 minutes and nothing happened I reset the iPad turned it on and off and nothing works. I’m pretty disappointed with this I was going so good I was just about to hit 1 million power and then this happens to me. It is a really fun and addictive game I’ve even put a bit of money into it when I’m not going to get back now because of this glitch. All I want is some advice from the developers on how I can get my game to start working again after the loading screen stopping on 74% and crashing. I just want to conquer the kingdom!!!!

Fix pleaseeeee. The city edit mode is quite the work of art, the save button doesn’t even work if we save our progress, it won’t do anything since half of the roads will be going on top of each other and half of the building is stacked with the decorations, the game is fun and have a lot of smart ideas that similar games failed to comply for example taking control of troops and telling them where to go creates a whole new level of strategy. Clans leaders has to worry about expansion because of the bonus resource on the map and you can move buildings according to your taste of decoration and be able create a beautiful scenery of a city in the world. Though this might be quite hard to do but can you add another type of decoration where you can raise and lower the ground? They can create quite a unique style to your castle.

Awesome game with errors to be fixed.. Brilliant game that calls for perseverance and teamwork. Love how you can strategize with other members of your alliance, build friendships, gain enemies and set goals. However, since the latest update, the game crashes almost every day with it turning a really strong saturated colour before it gets stuck and flips out. Reopening, it loads to 74% and then stops moving, so it has to be deleted and reinstalled. This then causes a loss of chat messages. The other issue is the chat does not work on mobile data and must be hooked to WiFi. Looking online, I’m not the only one who is cut from my alliance when I’m out of WiFi range. This is a terrible bug, especially when you are at war. Please fix what is otherwise a fantastic game.

Money and time blackhole. Warning - If you have ADHD, ADD or similar diagnosis, please avoid this game. It has been designed like casino to ensure you keep spending money and there's no legal regulations around it. Cons- * A patch every month comes with minimum 2 bundles. * Game layout has progressively gone worse, just too many screens to click every few hours, money and time blackhole. Rich players get pilots to cover high effort/time demand. * No option to play casually. * Armament - just don't. Needs to be scrapped, thrown in trash. Hope someone sues them for it. * Farm 3 month for 5 days of fighting every 3 months. Game has continuously added mechanism that fill hospital rapidly but NO change in economy. Log in to send farmers out every 2.5hrs on 6 farm accounts or spend $500 for (unauthorised) resource purchase from sellers * Big black market within game - necessary because Dev only focus on money and ignore economy, player experience etc. * Extremely poor refund even for Developer mistakes. * Buggy new features - new ceroli, domain system, armaments * Easily spend $30k over 2-3 years with Account black market return value of $1000. * Not suitable for people in Asia region, unless you can wake up at 2am for fights. No fighting during Asia business hours. It's heavily EU and USA centric. Pro- * Free movement of troops in open field. * Lot of people say community but I disagree. I make new friends and they leave the game. After 3 yrs I rarely join chats.

Crashes?. Dear All, if you see my other reviews, I would normally rate apps like 4 star or 5 star. None of the apps I wrote a review about had a rating below 4 star, which makes me a bit disappointed to rate this a 3 star. Let me tell you why I rate it 3 star. One day, I was bored and I decided to find new apps. I was thinking about what game I should download and I realised, rise of Civilizations was probably a great game! It was on ads and other stuff. I quickly downloaded it and discovered it was an amazing game! I played it for a long time until a bad thing happened to it. IT CRASHED. I tried reloading it like 5 times but it still wouldn’t let me get on without giving me a crash! Now I just stop playing it. I hope you fix this immediately or I might even delete it! Sorry if that’s a bit rude I just got too annoyed by the crashes. Sorry for the long review as well. Hope you fix this! -Governor FluffyCloudM1

Getting there. This is a really good idea unfortunately the execution is lacking. The progression and combat especially need some fine tuning but it’s best to start with the little things. The idea of picking your own empire and grinding away to get it to the top is Cool and fun however not only do you only switch from the default village at like city hall 4 you don’t get troops that actually relate to the civilisation for a long... long time. The best way to improve this is to dive into the history books and find some infantry (archers etc) for each faction. This could be better improved by instead researching to improve troops as opposed to researching to get troops. you could also adopt something similar to clash of clans where you have a barracks and army camp where you can have preset armies and train said armies more to your liking. The combat and map could also use some tweaking like better animations for fights and more tactical options to use instead of just dragging your army to some barbarians and waiting. Please don’t take this awfully long feedback the wrong way I just want to see this game reach it’s potential and become a more enjoyable experience.

If you have a life give this game a miss. First of all I’d like to say it’s a brilliant game, you can spend hours playing but the real issue is kingdoms and finding a kingdom right for you. Don’t do what a king wants then your threatened with being “zeroed”. all that time spent training troops gone… all that time farming… gone…. If you work decent hours and have a life or any other hobbies then this game isn’t for you….. game would be 10x better if kingdoms choices had information on how active they are, if they are power and pvp focused or for the casual gamer, but they are not… passports to move kingdom are expensive. As an Australian all the events are when I’m asleep or at work…. Iv played for one whole year so I’m here to say iv wasted money and time playing this game all because of the way majority of the kingdoms are run…. If you: Spend big, have nothing but time to spend playing then this game is for you… Casual gamers look somewhere else. Put 3 stars because it is a great game…. Just let down by lack of casual kingdoms.

Rise of kingdoms. It’s my favourite mobile game yet such a good game only one thing I don’t like about it is that you can’t delete characters I made 2 accounts in the same kingdom 1558 just for the time being because I was gonna wait 90 days for the kingdom my main account lvl16 was gonna migrate too so I made 2 new accounts in the kingdom I wanted to migrate too 1558 but then it told me I could only have 2 characters in one kingdom so now when the 90 days is over and I’m able too migrate to the kingdom with all my friends I won’t be able too because 2 is the limits I have 3 accounts one is in a kingdom I don’t want it to be in and 2 are in a kingdom I want my main account to be in and a tried deleting one character that was in the kingdom I wanted my main account to be in so there was enough room for it but I can’t so all I’m saying is that there should be an option to delete a character if wanted and I’ve been dying to move kingdoms I so badly want to but now I’m stuck and can’t move kingdoms because I have the max amount of characters in one kingdom and I can’t delete any of them in order too move my big character in that probably didn’t make any sense but yeah I just want to move to 1558 so badly the migrating part of this game is annoying

Terrible developers. I’ve been playing this game for over a year now and I have to say I’m disappointed in how little the developers actually listen to the audience of their game. There are many key features that still need tweaking and changing to improve gameplay and despite multiple people putting these ideas forward they’re still not addressing them. Migration is still WAYYYY to expensive - developers haven’t done a thing Late game kvks require you to spend a lot in order to be relevant in tech - they’re looking into it but have continued it on after the first KvK Equipment loadouts were not thought through at all - shouldn’t of been released as it was Overall the development of kvks and other features are not thought out before releasing. Everyone wants a KvK where you can do bastions and forts to contribute to A COALITION OR CAMP related tech. NOT INDIVIDUAL TECHS! It’s not hard to listen to your audience yet rok developers find it so hard to just take ideas on. Spoke to customer support and asked about a talent perk function and 3 different people gave me 3 different equations and answers and still can’t tell me straight forward how this talent works. Useless, absolutely useless. They telling me you have to break the functions of the game for a talent to work which renders the talent useless. I can’t believe a multiethnic million dollar company can’t even afford decent support who can tell someone one answer as to how a simple talent works. This game needs help

Great game/bad game. Depends on your style of gaming. It’s a great game, I love it. Like seriously best game strategically I’ve played. I’ve sent a fair few reviews on these types of games and that’s the first time I’ve said that. However, it’s not the game it’s the people. There’s “rules” made up by nerds playing in a phone app, usually Rich nerds, in each realm, they want to compete, make their realm great, but instead of unifying they dump good solid people(often more advanced vs time ratio) for server hoppers(from old realms usually f2p that can’t afford to heal after the first battle) chasing kvk prizes who jump as soon as the season is over leaving the realm depleted and worthless... So if you are a solo player with a lot of $$ to blow on server hopping, and with zero integrity this is the game for you, if you want to play with friends... unless every one of you spends at the same(preferably high) rate give it a miss. And for the f2p whining about spending this game actually works better for you than most, not spending but building for 12 months gets 6 month spender accounts booted from top alliances no worries... biggest issue in this game is the f2p server jumpers in my opinion.

RoK Don’t Care About Their Community. After spending 2 weeks of heavily playing this game and making it to 1mil power, my alliance decided to attack another alliance. From here one of their members went from 3mil power to 25mil power in 10mins. Since then he has done nothing but bully weaker players & kill off server population. I asked the staff to do something like introduce a power cap per week or immigrate him as he had more power than the top 50 players combined. The only response I got each time was simply “we’ve checked & he’s not cheating”, this is unacceptable. I’ve never met a company who just don’t care about their players as long as they make money. As of today I’ve had enough & will not spend another dime on this game neither shall my friends as we’ll be looking for a similar game that actually cares about its community & server populations, a game that doesn't allow players to pay their way to win or accept those powerful players bullying new players from the get go & allowing them to send messages like “ I was bored or it’s not my fault you can’t pay for power”. No more, i’ve already spent 2.5 weeks trying to get the staff to do something about it. As of today i’m just going to find a better product.

Absolute garbage.. Rise of Kingdoms is one of those ‘strategy’ games. It’s sort of realistic yet expensive as hell. In order to switch civilisations you have to pay 10,000 freaking gems! This means they force you to be stuck with your civilisation forever until you get enough gems. And strategy is not required either. In spite of the ads, the only way to beat rise of kingdoms is with brute force. You cannot beat anything without high level troops and thousands of them. Lilith games can be much better than this. And to add all of this together, you have to connect an account to get higher than level 10?! I don’t even own one! This is simply OUTRAGEOUS! This is why I am writing this review. Don’t listen to these ads. In conclusion, Rise of Kingdoms is way too expensive and greedy with their in-game currencies, and the advertisements are lies. One last thing to add is this game is pay-2-win. It’s not even owned by EA.

Pretty good game. This game has had loads of updates, improvements and new ideas coming to the game just around the corner. I love the simplicity of the game and that it’s not too hard to play. I also like the graphics of the game and that it runs smoothly on just about any device. It’s really fun rallying forts, attacking cities and playing with your friends. I love how the game isn’t boring and that there are elite barbarians in special events that you attack with your alliance. It good to see that there are different civilisations you can choose from too with its special unit. If i could change one thing about the game it would be people that are pay 2 win. People that pay money are going to have a huge advantage as they will be powering up way faster than someone who has paid nothing. Only if the game was less pay to win i would rate it 5 stars. That’s all i have. If u are apart of SR91 u will know who wrote this… : )

Fun at first, but you’re trapped!. This game was super addicting and very fun at first. I was really liking this game, I have had it for about 3 weeks and I am city hall 13. Then my alliance that I was in died and everyone left so I did too. When I tried to join a new alliance I realised I was TRAPPED! YOU ARE TRAPPED IN YOUR LITTLE KINGDOM SQUARE FOREVER! I could not get out of my kingdom so there and only a ha full of different alliances I can join. I researched and apparently once you reach city hall 8 (which happens very fast) then you can’t move to a different kingdom. This has completely ruined the game for me. Now my current alliance is dying too. My alliance gets overrun, I lose all my troops. I send out some troops to gather materials to recover, I lose them as well. It is a constant cycle now of attempting to gather resources then having everything killed. The cost to retrain troops is astronomically high. After about 3 times being attacked by players WAY higher level then me and a couple times failing to gather resources, I have used up every single amount of my resources I had in my inventory. TO SUMMARISE: You are trapped in a tiny square of land with particular players after city hall 8. Say no to joining a friends alliance or a alliance you want to be in from another kingdom.

Looks Great - Seems Hard To Get Into The Game. I have been seeing ads about Rise Of Kingdoms for some time now. I thought I would finally give it a go and download it. At a first glance, the game looks well developed and unique. I was very eager to get started. However, after just starting to play it was clear to me that there was way too much going on for someone who has just started to play the game. way to complicated. Notifications all around my screen about events and chats popping down the screen, red exclamation marks at every corner of the screen. I actually found it very difficult to fully understand what I was supposed to do when it comes to starting my ‘kingdom’. It was all very confusing and felt like I was getting thrown into the deep end without a decent idea of what I’m supposed to do. I stuck with it though and am now into the “Bronze Age” I believe it’s called and I still have a slim idea of what I’m doing or how to do things. In my humble opinion, if a developer does happen to read this; I think when a new player downloads the game it should all start out very basic with a clear tutorial on specific and important parts of the game. Not just having everything thrown on the screen at once. If and when the specifics are thoroughly taught then I am confident it will be much more enjoyable playing the game. I hope someone reads this! I am going to go back into the game and try and figure out what the hell I’m supposed to do next. lol. - Thanks, Joogy.

Zero customer service. First problem is it’s pay to win only, if you don’t part with hundreds of dollars you get smashed! Second problem is the customer service, I’ve had issues with the champions of Olympia event, as usual the developers have changed the format like they do with everything on a regular basis and now it’s impossible for me to play. Champions of Olympia is the only event worth playing and your able to win gold statues for upgrading your commanders with are very very hard to get unless you pay through the nose for them. When I try to play I get the message “repeat AFK behaviour” and it won’t allow me to play it’s done this for 3 straight weeks, I have contacted customer service and it takes days to get a reply and when I do get a reply it’s they tell me absolutely nothing. Very disappointed! I spent 3 weeks talking to customer service and got nowhere. I won’t be wasting anymore time talking to customer service

Poor Customer Service. I’ve played many mobile games over my lifetime and there has been dozens of customer service experiences i have faced yet rise of kingdoms customer was the most poorly managed customer service i ever faced. I’ll recount it I asked customer service to convert my 5 items into gems (smithy hammers) (1000 gems in total) they said it would take 24hours its never got a reply in 4days i asked every day i would get a response and it would say i would do it at the end of the event what they didn’t know is the event ended like 2days ago what I’m implying is that the players know more about the game than the agents which i found not reliable. Overall the game is good but too Pay To Win as a low spender this is a game i rarely play but started playing more frequently recently. 2 Stars

Great Idea and concept poor execution.. The idea of this game is great and it is a lot of fun to play, but the more I play the more I realise this game is made for pay to play players, if you don’t pay you can’t really enjoy the game properly, the reward structure is poor and your activity in the game is based on action points that you don’t get many of and cost real money to replenish, on top of that there are many “bugs” in the game that are massively negative for the player and when you speak to the customer service about compensation for a supposed “glitch”they just say sorry and that they can’t give you compensation, when you have already spent a few hundred dollars it’s not fair to have to pay more money because of their bugs, which is what you will have to do to replace what you lost because of the “bug”. I would avoid this game and play a more honest and trustworthy strategy game that isnt based on profit and doesn’t just drain your real money and time.

Rise of Kingdoms. 2 years ago, I was in a Great Depression. Other games healed it momentarily, but it continued until about a few days ago. And I’ll tell you why. My wife had left me, she took the kids and the dog, I was left penniless. All I had was my job, and an apartment I rented in the extreme cost of living in Australia. I cannot talk very good English even today, as I come from Asia. I was fired very short after she left me. But, two day ago, I found about this game, rise of kingdoms. I now have 53,000 power and play for most of the day. I am in a very cool alliance and my depression is cured. I love you Sun Tzu, with your hot, glistening abs and your wispy beard. I love you. This game has change me. I love it so much. Download it today. It will make your life have a purpose.

Please add or fix. Ok so first of all I love this game it’s soo much fun and Grindy perfect game to kill some time on ur break at work or ur day off. But I’ll get to the point so iv 100% explored the fog without collecting any rewards from villagers and caves thinking I could just knock it all out when I’m done exploring. But iv gone through my mail to collect it only collected some then there was no more to collect in the mail so I zoomed out of the map and I see so many I havnt even collected so now I have to individually collect the rewards witch is very annoying and makes me just not wanna do it coz how many there are so if u could please fix this or maybe add a collect all button for the villagers or caves would be such a time saver or even make the mail stay no matter what till u collect them. Thank you :)

Great game one suggestion. Hi developers this game is one of the best games that I’ve played in a long time previously playing Clash of Clans. I love every aspect of this game yet I feel in the alliance Rank 4 and leader or Rank 5 have all the things to do like building and because of this Rank 2 and 3 have basically nothing they can contribute to it apart from the Alliance Technology tree. It would make people feel more included and important. if the developers could make maybe Rank 2 and 3 can build stuff but with their own resources and not the alliance’s resources Ik I would work towards making those. The one thing that is annoying is if I’m trying to get friends to play ROK they say the games cringe because of the ads and their right there. Maybe the ads could be a bit less cringe and more realistic as well. Otherwise this game is great HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Keep up the good work!

Really good game but bullies ruin it. I’ve been playing this game for over 15 months and it’s been quite enjoyable. It’s a meaty game with plenty to do and it’s nicely balanced. We had ourselves a nice quiet corner and had a good relationship with our neighbours. But this last month we’ve been threatened, attacked and ordered out by an alliance way larger than we are (they’ve already forced out all our neighbours). We’ve tried diplomacy but the translation software is poor and they either don’t understand us (since we don’t understand them) or they just refuse to understand us (which seems probable). We’ve been given the choice of either joining an alliance of their choosing (where we lose all our benefits) or get smashed totally. So we’re left with a choice of being bullied or crushed. So 15 months of daily playing is wasted. It’s a terrible shame since this game had legs. Ultimately I wouldn’t recommend this game unless you like being bullied.

Too reliant on money. I’ve played this game for a long time and have made many characters throughout my play through, but one problem continues to bug me. The use of money in the game. Anyone who has a part time job e.g. depressed college student can easily afford so many things that boost their growth in game. As a free to play player, mostly because I’m broke, I often find myself falling behind the people who spend their life savings on a mobile game. While a free to play player actually needs to use strategy and plan things out to gain power, a pay to win player can just spend a hundo dollars on 25 thousand gems, or spend a few bucks for a gem supply of way too many gems! When my troops get killed in battle, I have to break my back, constantly training more while a pay to win player can just skip the process with gems. Really dedicated pay to win players have the choice to spend their entire bank account on gems and boost all the way to city hall 25 while every free to play player is still busy researching metallurgy. My suggestion? Maybe limit the abilities of pay to win players, like putting a budget on how much money can be spent every month or just making the things a lot more expensive. You probably won’t take this seriously since I’m just a broke high school kid who has anger issues but still, I believe that with a bit of fixing, this game can truly be enjoyed.

Riddled with problems but great players. I’ve played the game extensively over a few years and had fun in that time however I’d have to rate it low for a few reasons. On big killer is the “security feature” which has extreme overreach features - tap your device too quickly and you will get banned 24hours, tap the RHS map edge too many times, yes that very thin strip of cloud while your scout is there and the map border will clear block at a time but you will be banned 365days (try if you don’t believe it). I tried contacting the “service desk” about these things but they were very accusatory and insisted the game was correct. I will end with some positives - the players - a lot of great guys to meet. The events - keeps things interesting to a degree. The scale of the map - lots of alliances to choose from at least at first. Just don’t expect real help from the “developers”.

Great game but... This game is exceptional, I have played for a long time with no regrets despite the games heavily pay to win basis. However I have one main issue where is Greece? Greece was one of the most influential civilisations of the ancient world, why is it not in the game. I would love this game much more if Greece was added. Some possible starting buffs could be: Infantry defence (5%), building and technology speed (3%) and 4% increased skill damage. However these values could be changed, this is just my idea. As well as this some commanders that could be added could include: Socrates, Pericles, Cleomenes of Sparta, Aristotle, Solon, Cassander, and Phillip the Fifth of Macedon.

Too many inappropriate things going on in ROK!. While I’ve been playing some people are just a little to much to handle, gay people in the game sending pics of them in a slutty way, cat fishers ( people who are men or fat women ) sending pics of girls that’s not actually them, thots sending too much of themselves and most of the time we actual gamers who play this game want to just have some fun instead of seeing the inappropriate side. THERE ARE KIDS IN THIS GAME! (Say up to 8-11 years old I guess) and this game has done nothing about it… I mean I like the game I wish I could’ve rated it a five star review but too many thots, gay people and cat fishers ( I also forgot people have been sending disturbing anime pics ). Please just do something.

Customer service!. This game is amazing and very addicting. You build your kingdom from the ground up and grow your troops. When you join a good alliance youll notice thats where the fun really begins! Keep up the good work guys! The reason why i did not give this game 5 stars is that there are still little issues here and there. Please fix the alliance chat. It works if im connected to wifi but once im out and using data the chat stops and totally ruins the communication with my alliance. And one last thing is the pay to win aspect is a little too much. I dont mind paying here and there but later in the game i noticed my wallet being squeezed just to earn something. The last event i worked hard to gain these coins. I have enough coins but i have to pay real money to reach VIP 5 for the commander i want? Theres a huge gap between free players and players with deep pockets. PS. I sent a message to your customer service and i havent heard back. Its been a few days now and its regarding my payment. Please work on your customer service especially to costomers who pay for your services.

Worst game ever. First the ads. They are cringy, misleading and annoying is there really a restaurant for rise of kingdom players, and do nearly everyone in the world play rise of kingdoms and do people really bully people for being low power and and do people really get like 5 million power in like 3 days? Again ads with the Viking ads they say people are farming and I am attacking city’s well you have to have a certain level to attack city’s and to get levels you need to upgrade and if you want to upgrade you need coins and if you want coins you need recourses yeah misleading. Plus they put fake promo codes in ads to. The gameplay is bad to and it has a limited amount of civilisations unlike what the ads say. Anyway read before you get the game oh and when you make a review it comes up with a template saying best game ever

Ups and downs. I love the idea and concept of the game. But the developers prioritize money over fun. every time I play this game I start out in a new kingdom and work my way up, playing hours and hours each day. There are so many people spending great amounts of money to be the “best” and it’s very unfair for those who don’t have thousands to spend on the game. There should be a limit to how much people should be able to spend because it takes the fun out of the game for everyone else, the game would be so much more fun if every player had to put time into the game instead of money.

Login Issues. After the newest update on May 7th 2020 every time I go to open the app it’s closes itself and I have spent money so a fix would be nice

Misleading. The gameplay in the advertisement I saw isn’t found in the game. The response to this review is not accurate because of the fact that 4 men dancing holding a coffin is not in the game.

Crooks!. They take away player’s inventory and when you inquire or request for it to be returned or the issue to be repaired their response is for me to “purchase” to replace it! RoK has been a fun game but to be pressured to buy because they take away your items... **Advise: Do Not play this game.

Mise à jour. Depuis la mise à jour incapable de charger le jeu👎👎👎👎

Didn’t work. The ad said if I got 20m power I would get a girlfriend but then I didn’t 😭👎

Very expensive game. Been playing it for almost 2 years . The in-game reward system was great but now they reduced grants to making them irrelevant. The purchasable packs are the most expensive i EVER saw for what you actually get. Real war action can only happen every few MONTHS , and since Korean players vastly dominate this game communication including chat systems are terrible. Do not play this game unless prepared drop huge $ amounts for little fun

Killing F2P. Lilith is killing f2p woth the newest patch making speed ups less accessible and promoting gear

Fake ads are only the beginning. You might have seen the ads on YouTube. They have little to do with the game. Much of the gameplay they describe is not part of the game. There are no ships. You don’t control your troops in the way the ads show. The graphics are nothing like the ads. Most events are gambling based and the results are based on luck over skill. Most combat is won by those who spend the most money not those with the most skill. Vikings? Longbowmen? They are not very important to your game at all. The civilizations like Britain or France have slightly different troop characteristics and slightly different graphics, not much else distinguishes them. What matters in this game is the money you spend. To compete well you’ll need to spend around US$200 a month minimum. And you’ll have to play a lot. Everything in the game is on some sort of timer. You’ll need to log in throughout the day and spend 15 - 30 minutes at a time getting things done to meet these timers. That isn’t playing time, that is chore time. The game demands you do regular repeated chores multiple times throughout the day or you’ll lose out. Spending money will help with that but not completely useless you’re one those who spend closer to $1000 or more a month.

The game is for paid players. Free players are slaughtered like sheep by paid players. You need spend at least $5,000 to be a top player. Don’t waste your time and money.

No money no play.... It was fun at first, but now nothing help us poor people.

Literally The Best. My wife left me because I was only 20,000 power; but now with my 10 million power I get all of the hoes at the function

Rise of Wallets. Great game, way to expensive if you want to compete.

Won’t open after update. Loading stops at 6% and kicks me out. It’s been like over 12hrs of waiting. Please fix it!

Why are popular mobile games like this…?. Seriously, I’ve played quite a few "settlement/empire" mobile games and they where pretty much following the exact same boring gameplay direction… same rules are applied to anything remotely popular, which I find it weird. The ONLY reason why they are thriving is because they waste more money into ads than making an actually good game itself. So basically, why should I put money into this "F2P" game (which is not just by looking at some other people’s reviews) , knowing damn well it’s gonna end up into ads in someone YouTube video… Keep in mind that this is not the only game that does this type of stuff. ( i won’t name any, since i feel like they’re pretty obvious ) if you EVER want to spend money into a game, consider the following advice; -do you like the game -do you want to support the game -do you think the game needs the money more than you do -are you pleased with what the game is going to give you afterwards If you answered YES on all of them, you are not wasting your money and will have a good purchase This review might not be viewed by other unaware people about those "complaints". So out of all respect, you can upvote any reviews on the App Store by just pressing long enough on it to ether; upvote it if you find it useful or straight up downvote it if you don’t support someone’s review

Come to 1310. For those people who are getting bullied by p2w come to our server we zero anyone who steps out of line This is a great game once you find the right people and server to play on and with

pretty good. can you add shortcuts to rok mac like the pc version and also extend the screen because there are parts of the screen which is black because its designed for ipad

No recommandation. Only PtW

Garbage. Don’t bother wasting your time here, people spend 2k and go around and ruin the game for FTP. The free players have 1mil power and pay players 20+mil there’s no point in competing in that unless you’re rich.

Pay to Win. Every update keeps getting worse and worse. They don’t listen to their player base at all and will do everything to make this game not worth playing for free to play players that they can. Take it from me as someone who has not put a dollar into this game and save yourself the regret later BY NOT SPENDING ANY MONEY or even downloading and giving this game a chance. I’m 300 days in and every update they remove the aspects that made it somewhat playable for free to play players. It can (and has) only gotten worse from here.

Rape. After i got 90 mil power another player came over with 500 mil power tracked me down irl raped me, my dog and my 6 yr old daughter. Dont download this game inless you want to be raped by a 8 ft blackman in a bikini

Terrible game. The ads are annoying, a farmer loses his wife and in 4sec he turns in a GOD, and how many ads have you seen on YouTube today let me count for me about 10 PER DAY this is insane just stop

Garbage game. Spend thousands of dollars on this game and have a bad experience on it!

P2W. Great game but open migration ruins it. Players who have spent tens of thousands will jump to your world (or your kvk) and ruin it. It is a shame when the game has such potential...

游戏公司各种暗自修改武将技能，道具掉率和装备属性爆率. 玩了一年多，丽丽莎各种无公告修改让人忍无可忍了，金钥匙为例：以前1-1.5把绝对能出一个武将雕像，现在200把能出60-70个都算好的了。

I hate the game. Every time I go off for 2 days I get teleported and end up far from my alliance fix this please.

Rise of kingdoms. I have 15 million power peasants

Only credit card players have fun. I have been playing this game over a year, with multiple accounts. I have done jumper accounts and farm accounts, I have migrated 4 times to new kingdoms in search for some decent people to play with... all I have found is racist and sexist bullies of the asian dissent, I was zeroed 3 times for not agreeing with them and their dictatorship way of running the kingdom. They were bullying this one player and I stood up to them and got kicked out of every alliance in my current kingdom. I have already put thousands of dollars and my time playing this game to be bullied and zeroed for doing what’s right.... that’s ridiculous! The culture of the game was much better when this game first came out ! I’d just like to save anyone like myself that really enjoys this style of game from getting screwed over! My recommendation is the fatter the wallet the more fun you will have, but remember that there is always someone else with a bigger wallet than yourself! Those whale account players will zero you for fun when they are bored ! Just a heads up now !! P.S developers my suggestion would be to keep kingdoms dedicated to certain hemispheres of the world (example uk and Americans together, asian continents together, all of Europe together, South America) just an idea to fix the bullying!

Another pay to win game. It’s fun and peaceful til other paid users kill off all your farmers and runs

Why is there a rape trailer?. I was browsing YouTube and an ad came up for rise of kingdoms where a woman is raped, chooses to commit suicide, then celebrates randomly becoming rich? What the actual f**k is wrong with you people? Who is the piece of garbage that thought “oh I have a fun idea! Let’s use rape and suicide to sell our fun little micro transactions!” “ we’ll make it ok because she becomes rich after her suicide attempt fails. Because money and power takes away that pain. Lol gg.” You are less than human.

Great Game. The game is fun, with a strong social component. A little buggy at times, getting kicked out of the game. But worth the trouble most of the time

Captivating. Super fun animations and I love the back story on all of the commanders that get unlocked. It makes them feel more real and less generic.

Loading in bug. fix the bug that you are about to enter to play the game

New healing update. Please listen to community feedback on reverting this new limited healing update it will harm f2p to low spenders very heavily leading to less people playing.

Great game. Like it so far reminds me of a lord of the rings game I played

Stop this man. The guy with 25 million power took away everything I own, my wife left me for him and he took my kids

The greed of developers is high. Dont need to download this game unless you can drop thousands of dollars in a month and then too just to disappointed with stupid update and they wont even spend your money to fix lags or any other bugs in game

Excellent customer abuse system. This is not your take-your-money-and-run skim. Lilith was able to craft a master piece is sociable fun and program bugs. Where the magic starts is in their Customer Abuse System. In a fine core of lack of vision and bug riddle programming, they have top a slow response system, simmering to perfection the insult of forcing you to demonstrate the problem. We have bugs and we have you money. What are you going todo about it? The true master craft shows in the slow, erratic response - almost schizophrenic- to the point of absurdity. Put your money in and let the abuse start!

Do not play this game!. This a a pay to play game. It is set up extremely well to lull you into a sense of “I just need a little better....If I buy this one little pack for 7 dollars it will help me.” At the end of the month you look at your Credit Card bill and you have spent $1,000, or with some players, way more. I played for 3 months, spent moderately and played a lot. At the end I have a great deal of buyers remorse. The gameplay is very unbalanced. It takes a very long time to train troops and if you do get into a huge battle your troops are gone very quickly and you have to buy “speed ups” to train more. I cannot stress to anyone reading this enough Do Not Install This Game!!!! I have never played a more unbalanced game in my life.

Great game, no annoying ads!. This is a well balanced game with plenty of great elements.

Terrible. They make the ads way better then the actual game,false advertising.The quality is terrible and way more pixelated then the ads.

I hate my life. I was about to my wife but then I guy come over with 72 million power and married her instead of me

1 star. Rating Rok with 1 star. All the lag and sh**t updates you guys do makes the game even more unplayable. Kindly, really fix the issue... The Chat update still horrible. Actually even worse...

Love this game. Animations, graphics and day and night cycles are quite impressive. Recommend rise of civilization to my friends.

Fake. Stop with the ads I can’t take it anymore I want to literally punch all the people that promote this game!!!! I don’t even need to play it and I didn’t I just downloaded and deleted immediately to those saying it’s a pay to win game yeah no s&$@ look where Lilithgameco is from.

Pay 2 Win past a certain point. There is no reliable nor rewarding way to earn books which are required to upgrade your academy and castle. This means you eventually reach a bottleneck where you can’t upgrade the Academy/Castle without paying and you cannot upgrade most of your buildings to lvl 25. I had been paying a bit here and there while playing this game and I’ve managed to reach 24 Million power but realizing I literally cannot progress because of the tens of thousands of books I’m missing, I quit the game. What a scam, seriously, several months of dedication to this game and this is what I get, a wall of $$$$$$ that I won’t climb.

Broken. Todays update just broke the game, cant even get past the loading screen now. It just sits at 6% until it times out and the app crashes. Update: After talking to other alliance members on discord, a lot of players are unable to log on. Fix your bug infested update

Crashing. App keeps crashing at 6%.

Fun but concerned. I was having fun with this game and I decided to buy 2 bundle packs and a gem pack, no big deal they’re only $6.99 each or so I thought. The concern came when I got billed charges of $18.94 and $15.80 and $9.47. I don’t understand why there’s a set price and then I get charged a totally different price at the end, if I knew it would come out that way I would never have purchased the packs in the first place. Can someone please get back to me on this, if it’s some error on your end or me just not understanding how it all works, I would like some clarification.

M1 MacBook support. Add the game back to Mac AppStore like other developers or this one star rating will keep coming your way.

Addiction. This game is the best I’ve played. Not because of graphics or small things that surely will be improved in the future. Because of the base of active players and how serious this game is taken. It takes you to another level, you will find friendship and camaraderie, it involves high levels of strategy, and truly gives a place for leaders to be born. It is a whole other world that Will envelope you and your time. If you don’t have several hours a day to dedicate to the teamwork involved, you will likely not succeed and become part of the bigger picture. I love the game mechanics, however I would say there are some downfalls. Things are so expensive that, the ones with big pockets are the ones that succeed best. You will see a mix of power players, those who are not wise and strategic who only succeed from the money spent, and those who dedicate completely to the game and put effort and hard work in rather than their wallets. I wish that we would get more for the money when making purchases. I also wish that members can share items and gems with other members, maybe make it only so leaders and officers can share, this way the leadership of the alliance truly picks the members up.

Rise of Kingdom. UPDATE: It is clear now that this game is designed for one thing and one thing only and that is to generate money lots of money! At your expense, if you are looking for a game that has a solid customer service base this game is not for you! Don’t have money? DO NOT PLAY ( be prepared to drop thousands if you plan on joining end game) The game has accuracy in commanders and for the most part is a well constructed war game, however I’d beware if you plan to play without spending a dime as the system is designed to get every player to at least spend $100 if you want to be anywhere close to competitive , a company like this has one major goal in mind and that is residual income and it’s all well but when your life support are the number of troops you have and considering how easy it is to loose them all completely, I would say this is their main source of income when it comes to long lasting player base. The company seems to take long to answer questions and does not seem to want to acknowledge when specific buggy situation can leave your $300+ account possibly even more in ruins, they don’t seem to have any desire to return troops that were lost because of a buggy game experience as they continue to encourage you to train more troops which cost $$ if you want them in time to compete otherwise you can find yourself spending months recovering what you lost in 1 battle. In conclusion I think Lilith Gaming needs to do a better job finding out exactly what each issue/ bug that their player base brings to their attention and if it is proven to be true rewards them with what ever the bug took away, after all a player that sees fairness and the resolve a company has will promote a healthy confidence that spending your Money here is well worth it.

3 times. Played for about 2 years, spent moderately but still, it was really far from opening up T5’s..Left then came back a couple more times and there’s just too much stuff in this game! Now look all these games are pay to play, pay to stay relevant, pay to compete! I’m not sure why the free to play crowd keeps trying to play these games. All they’re gonna do is get frustrated! I played a couple hundred of these games, they’re all the same way.. just some less greedy than others. That’s what I look for… now from what I can see this game has become a total cash grab and I played their other game, Warpath..They totally destroyed that game! That game was great for the first year and it looks like I got out at the right time! Some advice to mobile gamers out there, if you’re not willing to spend even a little $$.. stop playing these games.. they’re all the same.. unless you just play to pass some time for fun! and please stop using the term pay to win..that is incorrect term.. just because you pay, does not mean you win! now I am giving it three stars because it’s a very tactical game.. which is cool. The graphics are great if you’re willing to spend probably about $500 a month.. and you can do OK in this game..Rocky :)

Download infinity kingdoms instead. Infiniti kingdoms is way better than this crap fest of a game. If you do decide to download this game. Expect to get screwed over constantly. Expect nothing to ever get resolved by customer service, unless you are a heavy slender then they will compensate you even if you are wrong. I’ve seen it happen in my alliance and saw high powered players brag about being able to push lilth around. But if you are F2P or plan to be a low spender you are easing your time. Recently infinity kingdoms has come out and it’s very similar to rok...BUT the big difference is you can still play as F2P or low spender and progress thought the game at a normal pace and have fun. Lilth will literally slant the game to force you to pay to be able to play and tell you “it’s ransom numbers” or some other crappy excuse. Lilth is a garbage company full of greed. It’s pretty bad when the major spenders all agree to go on a spending freeze until lilth treats F2P players and low spenders better. Yep this is the kind of company you can expect to deal with if you download this game. It’s horrible. Please take my advice and go to infinity kingdoms and play. It’s so much better and their customer service is actually polite and helpful. Seriously go look at reviews within the last 8-10 months and look at the responses from lilth. It’s never their fault, it’s always an excuse with a response of we will work harder in the future. But it never happens. They keep telling you what you want to hear hoping people will keep spending. #lilthisatrashcompanywithhorribleethics

A great game but I think there needs to be a change to resources. I love the game and the mechanics and the game feels original and fun although I think there is one big problem resources and how they don’t scale . When you get high enough of a level resources get so hard to get and it takes more time to get resources then to upgrade the building and it continuously gets harder I think you could implement a little bit of scaling to resources so the higher level resources should be more abundant so every time you go up a city hall level it should increase overall resource gain like 5 percent or maybe 1 or 2 percent idk really but let’s say your city hall is level 10 and your giving a bonus 2 percent for all resource gain so 20 percent extra so if you get 100 k from stone deposits after you collect get a message that includes 20 k or you can have a extra storage just for city hall bonuses so it can help with it because resources take so much time to get love the game though and will continue to play even though I think it should be changed the game is still great and fun just wish you would look into my suggestion 👍

Why is Everything so Insignificant?. I absolutely hate resource management games such as this one, because of how common they are and the fact that they are all the same game but with a different skin. Mafia City, Rome Fire Age, Vikings, Walking Dead the game, Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, etc.. are all pretty much the same game, so is Rise of Civilizations. However it did get me addicted to it. Complaints Why is everything so insignificant? When I unlock a perk from the skill tree on my hero, the perk is +0.5% to health of all units. This never makes a difference in war. Having an army go from 200 warriors to 201 changes almost nothing. The gem mines are also insignificant in this game. Gems are essentially the special resource that can be traded for other resources that are useful. The gem mines are rare and have only 10 gems in them and takes 2 minutes to mine each gem. This is ridiculous when you know it takes 3 gems for a minute skip. And takes nearly an hour to buy 10k corn which is lying around everywhere and normally takes 5 minutes for just as much as taking from a farm. Helping players is almost pointless for the same problem; it’s insignificant. Your friend could be on a timer for several and all you could do is reduce that timer be a few minutes.

Good game. This is actually good but just to say that the ads about it seem to be nothing compared to the game but some ads show like ways to improve in the game, which I like. I’ve been playing for some time and it’s pretty cool… But some ads show some people with millions of power, I understand the progress. But, getting resources is key because it will help you with the tech tree more because being bankrupt in resources means that you have to get all your way back to your place. Other things I liked to talk about the civilizations. The game with having all these civilizations but I chose Rome because ads suggested me about its ability, but I realized that Spain is pretty better because giving a way higher change in resources, I’ve been trying to change my civilization to Spain but the main thing is that you'll need to grind a-lot! Some ways I’ve gotten gems where by a survey, but to be real, I think overall this game is good but I hope the devs don’t continue these fake versions of the real game because you see these hate vids making jokes about ad vr reality and really wish for more updates soon too the game. Now, Byeeee!

Poor customer service. Excellent game but when it comes to money an error made or being over charge for a package you never received, very poor customer service the customer is never right even when you see that you are being charge god a package you never bough and the charges keep coming in and you write to customer service, they will always come up with their own resolution. They tell you otherwise that indeed you made a payment for a package you bough so I put it to the text. And I did not purchase any package for few weeks and yet the charge kept coming as if they own my bank account. Now I put a stop through my bank be cause customer service was not even replying in a timely manner. Now they will not let me update the game. Gem that I had previously were put it minus and even the crystals some that I did purchase were taken away without listening to my complain and the charges I was disputing no one went into details. People the minute a company discredit your claim without an investigation in my opinion is time to Check out. Don’t get me wrong K enjoy the game but is the unexpected charges. That keep flowing in and the poor customer service the down fall.

Addictive!. This is one of the most addicting games I’ve ever played. I literally spend about 8 hours a day playing this. 😂 there’s so much you can do, from rearranging your city the way you want it, sending scouts to explore, farming recourses, scouting enemies, rallying attacks on other kingdoms/alliances, and lets not forget all of the rewards you get for completing daily challenges! They bring new things to the game all the time so you’ll never be bored! Right now they have a ‘Wheel Of Fortune’, where you can win legendary items, training speed ups for your troops, commander XP... ect. The only time you’ll ever feel bored while playing this game, is when you’re upgrading your buildings and have sent all of your troops/scouts out and there’s nothing left to do. 😂 Now, if you’re reading my review and you’re still unsure of if you want to download ‘RISE OF KINGDOMS’ because you saw someone give it one or two stars along with a bad review, just remember that no one will ever be completely happy with any game. You’ll always have people ‘b!tching’ about things they hate about the game or how it needs ‘FIXED’ 😂 but you won’t know until you see for yourself. So download this game, and come join us on ‘R.O.K.’ 🙂🤷🏻‍♀️

Read to the end :). A wonderful strategy game! I’ve always been a bit disappointed with games like Clash of Clans which though they have a bunch of strategic options don’t allow you to freely move your troops once placed. Rise of Kingdoms has fully fulfilled and exceeded my expectations of what an open field strategy warfare game should be, to find success in this game you don’t need to spend any money (I haven’t) all you need to do is get your base leveled up quickly by using the speed ups and completing quests. One of the top priorities you should have is to join a strong alliance, even if you want to start one of your own it will probably only succeed if you have 1,000,000+ power because everyone wants a good leader, so join a good alliance and they can help you speed up your builds and reinforce your kingdom. Exploring is a big part of RoK so make sure to upgrade your scout camp so you can discover as many things as possible! In closing I was really satisfied with the unique speed ups that are unlike any other game I’ve seen and work REALLY well, and I hope you have a great time playing RoK!-Drowah of the Empathy alliance

Waste of time (literally). This game was fun at first, but the developer caters more towards P2W people. In order to get the good commanders you basically need to pay for them! If you want to level them up be prepared to spends years trying to get statues to level them up or just spend hundreds of dollars with their current system. Like so many other reviews here, if you aren’t willing to buy your way to the top, playing this game is literally a waste of time. Kingdom vs Kingdom is literally which kingdom can outspend the other. Endless war is expensive and it takes millions if not billions of resources to fight, heal, and restore your troops. (On top of that it can literally take 5- 8 real life days before your troops are healed!!!) I get the point of making games is to make money, but they should advertise that and not make it seem like F2P players have a chance at being anything but the bottom of the food chain. The developer responses are generic and they honestly can care less about fixing the game or making it more balanced for people who aren’t willing to spend thousands of dollars to compete (I’m so serious about the $$$). If you are looking for a game where you have an endless bank account you will have a lot of fun here, but for the casual F2P players, it is a total waste of time! Avoid the stress and find something more time worthy.

Ponzi Scheme. Ponzi scheme: yes it is an active game with over 100 million players, but you have to have deep pockets to compete, otherwise the kingdom leadership will steal all your resources, and that’s what the developers want: people spending ten of millions of dollars, only to have no recourse to protect it, and once it’s taken, they expect you to spend the same money again, unfortunately, which will also be at risk of being stolen. The big flaw here is they offer you no recourse to protect what you’ve invested. Anyone from any kingdom can wipe you out, and for no valid reason. Maybe they don’t like the way you play, it’s not acceptable to their standard. Nonetheless, if you join and land in a hostile kingdom, it won’t matter how much you spend - thousands or more - it can be wiped out. To avert this the developers should make ‘safe kingdoms’ for those who perhaps only want to play Ark of Osiris every two weeks, or maybe they made some friends and it’s a convenient platform to not engage entirely in the game and they just want to socialize. But no… they’re developing a subculture of violence and it stops when you’ve lost everything to unprovoked aggression. The mentality of the players in a mob is Neanderthalic. Their egos bigger than their capabilities… probably a trend here. Go find another game that doesn’t promote stealing from you. This is a “PONZI SCHEME” no other way to state it. Save your money.

Very disappointed. This is a competitive game!! With a “competitive game chat” as well.. so if you live in places like America or other countries that uphold the freedom of speech!! Just be aware that this platform does not care for its customers or their “rights”!! I have been muted and shadow band for the most outrageous things.. at first it was my fault because I did not know the guidelines or rules!!.. but now I do and have been getting banded and muted for simple joking and communication when going into Battle in kingdom chat!! When this is a competitive game?! This is a big deal seeing that I have paid thousands of dollars in separate accounts to play this game.. somewhat up to or probably close to 1,000 dollars in one week alone!! Just for it to be ruined over misunderstanding in wording/joking in speech😔😒.. I understand that this is a mistake by “customer service” due to other players reporting other players for no reason when they get mad.. but it needs to be corrected.. I cannot stress the amount of discouragement and outrage I am feeling do to this hardship!!.. I would like to continue to keep spending money on this game but I do not know how I feel about that anymore!! And I have been hearing the same thing from a lot more of other players!! Mind you I am a big fan!! Regardless from the matter of the fact I have made numerous reports on this.. letting customer service know that to every 30 messages someone sends me in alliance chat or game chat I can only send one ☝️😔😒… i’m just so upset that I’m almost done with this game 👌🙏💯😔😒😡🤦🏽‍♂️🤯

Customers mean nothing. This game is exactly what it looks. Grab and bait. I’ve played this game for 3 years. Let me break it down of how Lilith ruined this game. First year when this game came out, this game was fun and enjoyable. Players received a lot of rewards from events, drop rates of gems from barbarians were amazing and etc. Lilith decided to add an update that “prevented” boting but in reality hindered fighters from helps and making players have to use a lot speeds to heal or buy bundles for speeds. Later, Lilith decided to nuke rewards and introduce SOC and crystal tech. As if this game was bad enough as it was for being P2W. Now you must buy crystal bundles to max tech in order to compete against whales in the field. Such a rip off. As I decided to quit the game and update was added to give players the quit button for Apple users. I asked Lilith to delete my account and erase my personal information. Guess what? Lilith has once again made it extremely impossible to do something simple. They have asked me so much information and once I have provided that info, they said no and that my account was a VIP account. I warn everyone, beware of this rip off company. They DO NOT care about their community that gives them money, always finding ways to squeeze money out of players and will do whatever it takes to make your life difficult.

Game needs serious management fixes. The server my friends and I were put in is full of Asian whale accounts that spend thousands of dollars on the game and make several Alliances that are all under their “family.” This is oppressive and makes it impossible to do anything meaningful with my friends. At first when the server started, it was good, but they’ve blown up and own well over half the map. Can’t even transfer to other servers because this game’s requirements are so strict. The game is a lot of fun but it has absolutely no filter for people that make it impossible for new players. When these alliances just trade their City Hall 21 accounts between each other and stomp everyone that is five or more city hall levels below them, it’s impossible to do anything. I wish that the developers actually cared about providing a fun and fair challenge to this game instead of letting these abusive players walk all over them. That being said, if you’re planning on playing anyway, do NOT come to server #2310. It is a nightmare here and there is nowhere on the map that is safe. You can’t even harvest resources without players that are millions of power above you sending their armies to annihilate your gatherers. I hope other servers are better than this because it’s not even remotely fair.

Ok.... what?. Alright, so overall, this game is pretty good. I have only been playing for two or three days, but I already like it very much. But I gave this game four stars for one reason. So I got a notification when I opened the game. It said: Please verify your account to assure a fair gaming environment for all Governors. Now don’t get me wrong, I was cool with that. I was good and I told myself, “Okay I’ll do it later.” So I go offline for a few hours then get back on. The same notification pops up again, but this time the timer at the bottom is all zeroes, saying I’ve run out of time. So I click the verify button, and a loading screen pops up. Eventually, the loading screen disappears, but it still says I have to verify my account. So I press it again. The same thing happens. I press the verify button repeatedly, but nothing happens. I try to clock away from it, but a notification pops up saying, “Please complete verification to continue playing.” I’m incredibly frustrated by this and close out the app and try again. Once again, it doesn’t work. I’m going to delete the app and reinstall it to see if this is fixed, but I hope this glitch is fixed.

Amazing game but.... This game is great, it has elements of other games I enjoy playing but feels almost original. I’m really only writing a review to give a suggestion on what should be put in the game. I think you should add some sort of indicator that tells us when someone is online and offline. I know it’s a small detail and we don’t necessarily need it, but it would definitely be helpful when developing our alliances. This is just my opinion and I hope you keep up the good work. 😁👍 Side note: The pay to win crap that everyone is spewing is ridiculous. Sure, you can buy stuff that helps you grow at a faster rate than others but you can easily get there too if you make the right choices. I’m already a level 8 City Hall and I have only been playing for a few days, and guess what, I have not spent a single penny. What I did do, though, is join an alliance with experienced players who, by the way, gave me wonderful tips on how to get where you need to be before you start getting wrecked by stronger players. So developers, again, keep up the good work and don’t let what these guys say bring you down. 😉

Not nearly good enough!. I love many aspects of the game but what makes it nearly unplayable is the pay to win aspects. I feel many changes need to be made to this game, mainly the pay to win part. This game would dominate the market of the genre and be so awesome if only people who spend thousands didnt control the servers and make it unplayable. At its current state its unplayable unless you spend money. Its not even hiding the fact that you need to pay money to win, ive seen several bundles that cost alot of money for a mobile game. I could buy several good steam games for the price of the bundles that only give you alittle buff above the rest. This game definitely needs improvements if it doesnt want to pander to the highest bitter, this is a major problem for all of their games. Lets face it, they make too much money of the idiots with big wallet. I would never recommend any of their games to anyone. They are never gonna change their practices and they dont have to. Just dont download this game, you will either get sucked in (and waste money) or waste your time. Well this and this review was a waste of time, no one will read this and if they reply they will send some automated message about how their working to change the game. Stay away from this game and others they own, this is a company that uses great ideas and genres to infect with p2w aspects that utterly ruin the game. Screw this company.

If you’re thinking about playing read this first. I played this game for a maybe 5 months, so I’m not just making this up, if you’re a free to play player you’re screwed. Plain and simple this game is not made for you, sure you can have a lot of fun and play with your friends but even if you put in 30 bucks a month on gems or anything like that you are no match for the whales your server will have. Don’t get me wrong this game was great and I enjoyed playing it, but once a clan has more than one or two players that are well over at least 30,000,000 than the closest players you’re pretty much not going to stand a chance against them. At that point the game is no longer fun because these whales will absolutely smash you and your whole clan in less than an hour, they aren’t scared to spend hundreds of more dollars to train troops or heal them to use to beat you down. With all this said, don’t play this game unless you’re okay with getting absolutely manhandled after building up your own clan and base for a few months. I agree with what another reviewer put and don’t think I would return to this game unless they implemented a free to play friendly server.

8/10 stars! Great game recommended!. Very fun game, but with that there are a couple problems… 1: if you are not comfortable having kids play with other people online from around the globe then might not want to play this game. 2. There is a big grinding aspect to the game if you don’t like grinding to get to being the best player this game may not be for you. 3. This game also has a pay to win aspect in the game, I’m seen people that shot up from 1,000 power to 1 mil in about 2 days! This is probably not possible even if you were playing for 48 hours strait. 4. WARNING: there is a billboard sign you can put in your city that you can tap and take you to a social media page if you not comfortable with your kids having social media this billboard could be a problem. Also in this billboard I’ve seen girl taking pictures of themselves that aren’t appropriate for kids would not recommend for kids to see under the age of 18. Also last thing NEVER SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFO IN GAME. This may be common sense but just want to make sure everyone is aware of it. Even though I’ve said all the negative things all in all this is a very fun game to play and I still highly recommend you play.

Jumpers and P2W. I have to agree with many of the other reviews that are on here. ROK can be a great game, but the main issues that this game suffers from are: jumpers and pay to win. I recently came back to the game because I did enjoy it a few years back, but now, the game is barely enjoyable or any fun. The jumpers make it impossible to have fun, as they completely take over the entire region with astronomical power and crush anyone else that is playing. The game has become completely unbalanced. Not to mention that I am now seeing in the conversation tabs people asking for credit cards and payments. I highly doubt the developers are doing anything about it, and just letting it slide. Jumping should either be banned or limited to a small amount. You shouldn’t be able to jump to several servers or create multiple accounts. There needs to be a way to monitor this. The developers need to step up or the game will suffer. I’ve read many comments in discord and Reddit about fed up players with jumpers, cheaters, and play to win. Our region now has multiple accounts being all the same. Every time you try to enjoy the game, they just crush you and take over everything in a matter of minutes. Shame on the developers for letting this slide and happen. The ball has definitely been dropped 👎

Great game overall, but trending downwards. To start things off, I just want to say that I used to absolutely love this game. I would a couple hours a day, and it was awesome. I always played it casually, never competitively. I didn’t fight a ton, only during kingdom vs kingdom. Now, in order to understand, I was almost entirely f2p. I think I’ve spent maybe 10 dollars in the game. Which is a fraction of a percentage of a decimal of how much Lilith makes. Despite their massive earnings however, they developers continue to make the game even more p2w with each update. Given a few more months, it could be impossible to play without spending. Lilith is already sleeping on bags of money, so why ruin the game for people who just want to enjoy it. In a couple years, Lilith could be as money-obsessed as EA, which is saying quite a lot. If you are free to play, I advise steering away from Rise of Kingdoms. It used to be great. The game still has an amazing player base, but as time progresses, it is harder and harder to play without spending. And the worse thing is, there isn’t a point. Lilith has already made sooo much money of this game, they could probably retire right now and have enough money to live happily until all their employees die, and then still have probably millions left over. Heck, even the two biggest spenders in the game, Baba and Maverick, have spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in this game, if not millions. And even that is less than a fraction of the game’s earnings. There is absolutely no point in making RoK even less F2P-friendly. No reason at all.

Great. TBH, this is a great time waster, although it has a few thins I don't like about it, firstly, the space in your city is somewhat small, making it hard to decorate it, unless if your a more ‘competitive’ person then just maximize the space you have. secondly, the chat is kind of funky, unlike other games, it has this ‘iMessage’ kind of feel to it. and lastly, the peace shields are kind of expensive(costs gems, an in-game currency), so much so, I feel more comfortable being vulnerable to attacks rather than spending gems to protect my city for 8 hours. Apart from these, This game is kind of unique, wherein it’s AI pathfinding is better than other games similar to this. It has quite a few factions to choose from, although choose wisely, as you can only pick once for free, if you wish to change your faction, you need to spend 10,000 gems on it. each faction has its own unique style of buildings, E.G. rome: more ‘advanced’ buildings, Japan: wooden. Each faction also has its 1 unique troop, like the roman legionary(called a legion in-game). I recommend that you should build and train regularly, as doing so will allow you to be ahead of some players. All in all, I think its a great game to pass time.

P2W or be Destroyed. Let me start off by saying that I have loved my time playing this game. I started early on and found a clan and continued with them over the course of 2 months in 2 different kingdoms. Myself and those I have come to know through the game enjoy playing the game and the strategy and tactics that are involved. It is a great macro strategy game. This big issue with this game that I see is how P2W it is. In both kingdoms I have been involved in there has been a massive alliance full of players that pay ridiculous amounts of money to increase their power faster. I’m not talking about players who spend a few dollars here and there to boost themselves up a bit. This game is dominated by “Whales” who spend thousand of dollars to make sure no one has a chance of touching them. In my most recent kingdom I had been keeping a fast pace, playing the game smart, and doing significantly better than before. By the time I had grinder my way to 1m power, there were players with 35m power, together in an alliance, destroying everyone who got in their way. It’s just not fun anymore. I’m tired of playing a game just weeks on end just so someone who spends money can render me useless and stop me from playing the game anymore.

8/10 would recommend. First thing you need to know when playing this game, it’s the most pay to win game I think I’ve ever seen. Oddly enough, it’s also the most enjoyable pay to win game I’ve ever seen. Props to the devs, and congrats on convincing people to drop thousands of dollars on this game 🤣. Now for the real review. You guys made an awesome game. Granted, there are things that bother me, such as the scarcity of legendary items (especially for commanders), and the fact that winning events isn’t based on how well you do it’s based on how much you spend. (Seriously, the difference between a free to play player and a low spender is night and day). Overall though, I really enjoy it. The grind is a good way to keep people engaged, (and take their money lol) and most of the time, the payoff is well worth the wait, especially if you’ve been saving a really big speed up. The learning curve is EXTREMELY steep, so make sure you make some friends, otherwise your commanders will have a janky build. Again, special thanks to all the devs, and don’t spend all that cash in one place! :)

Great game, however play for the long game. I’ve played this game since it was rise of civilization, roughly a few weeks after its launch. It’s a great game. However, you really have to play for the long game if you really want to get nice buffs. While the VIP system is unique and a great feature, it really does require free to play players to grind out the lengthy VIP levels. While I didn’t always collect vip points everyday, I’ve collected them for over 200 days and I’ve only gone up 1 or two VIP levels. Of course you can always spend gems on VIP points but let’s be honest, harvesting 10 gems isn’t worth it, and the daily 100 gems could be used for so much more. For all the free to play players you do technically have everything the pay to win players have. You just have to be patient Also!!! If you’re coming to this game from one of the advertisements you see from another game or instagram. THIS GAME ISNT LIKE THE ADVERTISEMENTS. It’s a great game, it genuinely is, I just think a lot of players are discouraged when they come to a game and realized that marketing has led them astray. Whoever is in charge of the advertisement needs to show the game for how it’s really played, people would really respect you for it.

A hidden gem!. I have been seeing the stupid ads for this game endlessly, and at some point, I gave in and actually tried the game to see if it’s even good. Turns out, it was actually pretty fun and addictive! When I was going into this, I thought it was just going to be one of those run of the mill building simulator story mod type games you delete after a minute. But to my surprise, it’s quite relaxing and enjoyable! The game has a steady progression and an easy to understand system. Very user friendly. There are lots of different commanders to collect and different strategies. You can build an alliance, and it literally feels like you are the king. The building times could be obnoxious, but there are time skips which solves that. Also the game has zero ads! In this day and age? Very fun game and easy to pickup. The only reason I’m not giving it five stars is because some of the less dumb ads make the game look very interactive. Like for example in one ad the player builds a toll booth to earn money and start his civilization. Other than the fake ads and dumb ads, this is a great experience! (Also the game loads very fast, zero lag!)

Unfair Game - Beware. Rise of Kingdoms is a game where you cannot make fully maxed legendary heroes even after you play it for 2 years. If you don't spend 1000 dollars a month for the game, forget the competition. You will lose the war. You will lose the achievements. You will never get the city rewards because you have to be in top 10 for every event. Big spenders will always take away your rewards and you will always have to wait and grind. With this last update, you cannot even grind. If you want to play a free game, choose a different game. I suggest you can play Black desert or Metin2. Because Rise of kingdoms brought up this crystal material to upgrade your technology and you cannot make fully crystal technology unless you spend 2235 dollars. You have to pay two thousand dollars to be competitive player. Because without crystals you cannot have the bonusses to fight at all. You will just be a punching bag for the whales. AND this game will reset and take away your crystal every month to make sure you have to buy it again for the next fight. Also, the game will always match your kingdom with bigger and stronger kingdoms that are paying less than you, and they still get the same amounts of material just because their currency and country is different. The customer service is also the worst in the world. They will never respond to you properly. They will always ignore you.

Ultimate battle game! Best game ever!. I’ve been playing this game for a little under a year and I truly love it. Very addictive. I downloaded it just to play while I was bored, for example standing in line at a store but it quickly grew into the kind of game you every day, through out the whole day lol And on a even more personal note; I met my fiancé on here. I met him after a few weeks of playing the game. And even though he is in a different state than me (Me in CA and him in NY); it was love at first attack. I was a newbie and I didnt understand it then but he was/is what the gamers call a whale. He killed my troops during kill event and I got mad so I attacked him with all of my troops and they died. He sent and apologize email and helped me regain the troops I lost. We’ve spoken with each other every single day since then ❤️ The game was called rise of civilization when we met. Him and I are all about that RC life lol Update: Now we’re happily married with 2 children! Thank you RC (or RK now) this game changed my life! I’ll never stop playing this game and one day my children will play this game! My son is almost two and he likes to play on my account lol

Full of Bullying. Just stop lying! This game is just a pay-to-win game. And the early player takes all. If you are a beginner, none of the powerful alliance will let you join. So, in the beginning, you don’t have any of gaming experiences. You will be just like a farmer, farm, build, and upgrade yourselves. The funny thing is: this stupid game’s event follows Asian time zone. I’m in the U.S., and their events start in the late evening or early morning. Excuse me? It is just a game, not real life! Why should I suffer for rest less to play a game? Moreover, you will see thousands of crazy gamers here playing over days and nights. They will blame you for not contributing yourselves if you are not playing like them. Even in the kvk event, 90% of the fights start in the midnight or early morning. Well, if your power is under $25 Million, and you don’t have gold/orange commanders with gold/orange equipments, you are just giving killing points to the enemies. You will spend millions of resources and hundreds of days to treat or rebuild your troops. This game is good at killing your money by making every useful item chargeable. And, this game has many millionaires and billionaires. They seem like they can spend $100k or more every week or month to this game, and you will never be able to catch them. So, save your money and mood, don’t play this game. It is a fraud, no fairness.

Good game but.... So while developing a game that’s whole purpose is to be IN an alliance there’s no counter measures for people who grow an alliance and want to treat other players poorly. For instance I was in an alliance who made smaller and weaker alliances as different tiers I was in a higher tier since I had nearly a million power but they instated a new power rule making it 1.2 mill and had kicked me for not reaching said requirement even though without spending money on the game teach 1 milli within a week especially after depleting all boost to try and make it there kick me. I had to fight with the owner because not only had I spent the sum of my resources helping with research but also help build the alliance to what it was just to get kicked. All other lesser alliances are full and since they will continue to grow the same thing will just happen in the lesser alliances and they become stronger. There needs to be a counter measure to this because at the rate they were at no one could stop them meaning even if I join a really strong alliance it wouldn’t matter because they would back each other up so something needs to happen because it is a toxic environment and ruins the game to point of there’s no reason playing it. For everyone who happens onto said server where the rising suns or their lesser academy alliances are leave the server and find a new they treat people poor and don’t care about how much effort you put into the alliance if your below a power despite still helping out they will kick you. You got life stuff to deal with so your gone from the game for a day or two they will kick you. Just save yourself the trouble early on and find a new server.

Fun game, slight annoyance. So this game is really fun for its genre, and having played games like clash of clans coming to this is actually a breath of fresh air, as this game is well made and cares about the players. There are a lot of systems giving depth, but they aren’t so complex that you can’t understand them easily. I think the politics is one of my favorite things, to give an example my clan recently built a castle but some members are scattered and rando people are just in our territory, so me and several other clan members are pressuring the non clan members to leave the territory, which is kinda fun. My one real complaint beyond some kinda ridiculous things like building upgrade times being obscenely high, like 9 hours for a level 9 town hall upgrade. Having the time reducers is a nice mechanic, but it’s all too easy to burn thru them quickly. Another issue is on the map where forests can make it so you can’t move a building into what should be open space. An ability to remove forests on the map or move the positions of resource gathering points if they are in your clan territory would be really neat. Other than that this is really cool and definitely different from those that look like it

Love this game!. I love this game, I play it all the time with friends I have met on this app, it’s almost perfect but I think it would be cool if every new server starts almost completely blank and barren world where there are no bridges and buildings except one giant barbarian fort that raids city’s who take out any barbarian buildings they will build over time, you can build your own stuff too! Like bridges and stuff, I think it will make the servers feel way more real because other people make the world a better place, I also wish that we had proper kingdoms with much more building types and buildable safe zones where your soldiers can rest because they can only march for so long, also make the research more speacialized like if you research making bridges you can’t research sawmills or something like that idk, also sawmills would be pretty cool to have. This is a complete overhaul I know, but you literally have not changed anything in years! If I showed someone a picture from the first release of this game and the most recent update they would see no difference, please take this into consideration please -a fan

I was skeptical... That this would be another boring CoC type game. And while it is, it’s far from boring. I find myself actually having fun gathering several items on the large playable map all while leveling up my commanders and having fun with my friends in my alliance. I would highly recommend it. The only issue that I see is late game players with very high power moving to new kingdoms, and destroying lower level people who have just began. If there were a Power Cap to when you can teleport, or a time limit depending on how long you’ve stayed in the server, this would help that issue. But other than that, this game is still rather fun. EDIT: Many months later. I believe there’s a limit to teleporting now, which is good. But the only thing I really have to add since i’ve gotten back into the game is that the ads are obnoxious and don’t really capture the essence of the game, but it still IS a GOOD game nonetheless, ads aside. Note: I stopped playing months back simply because I was burnt out over time, not because it was frustrating or anything like that. I like Vikings so coming back with a new kingdom is pretty fun this time around once again.

Excellent game but one huge downside. I love this game and really love to play it. Now there is one huge downside in this game and there is a easy way to fix it. Probably the most asked question: is this a pay to win game and the awnser is no, but you will never become great in this game and will be over looked unless you play 10 hours a day which for some people is the way to go. An easy way to fix this is to make free to play kingdoms where for example only people who have spent less than 40 dollars are allowed to enter. This would fix everything because it gives us a chance to really become great in this game and show what we are made of. Without it we just are the lowest players and achieve nothing or feel like that, because there are people that gain the might that you have in 200 days in less than a week. This game has done a great job of giving the chance to free to play players but it needs to go further to really give us the real feel of game play. Also the kingdom needs players who are very strong and that’s why I introduced that people who have spent a little money can still be seen as free to play which is essential for the game developers and players.

Stay Away. Warning. Do not start playing this game. If you are unwilling to spend a minimum of three hours playing EVERY SINGLE DAY, you will get nowhere. The game is full of mind numbing tedium. You have to constantly farm resources. In fact, you need four or five farming accounts just to collect the resources needed to play effectively. There are repetitive and endless events that you’ll have no choice but to participate in if you want to be even a mid-level player. To top it all off, you have to spend, and boy does this game know how to milk you for money. Lastly, commanders are the most important aspect of play. You will spend months building up a commander, only to find that the game makers have added yet another commander that makes the commander you just spend month building, worthless. These games rely on psychology. Once they get you to spend enough time and money on the game, they know that you will be very reluctant to quit. And as for the social aspect, if you like being constantly bossed around by the leaders of your alliance, then this game is for you. Word to the wise, don’t get hooked. One more thing. Every few months, there is a thing called kvk. During kvk, you will literally have to play the game for 12 hours a day for weeks to be competitive. Stay away and find another more useful way to spend your time.

Fun with no performance issues. Well, I haven’t been playing this game for longer than a week, so it’s difficult to express how my game play experience will be when my kingdom reaches more competitive levels. However, I can tell you that this game, for me, competes with the best of them out there. Other games I play include Clash of Clans, Forge of Empires, and Last Shelter: Survival. What I like most about RoK is that it gives you a variety of ways to effectively grow your kingdom, so that you’re not forced to “gem” your way up the levels. Other games don’t do that, and have a very funneled approach to the entire experience. I delete those games after the second week of installing them. I’ve experienced no bug issues, and am now enjoying the benefits of joining an alliance. This truly is one of the best strategy games I’ve played. The only other game I like better is Star Wars Battle Grounds, but that was a super long time ago, and I haven’t seen it back out. That one lets you literally drag the fight into the ground! AnywayZ, awesome game, and I greatly appreciate the effort these guys/gals put into it. Good stuff...

Things you should add. This game is really good I love it it’s so addicting and overall and great player experience; and when you play you can learn about history and feel like your in history. Except me because nobody likes me anyway, here are some things the game should add 1. in the game it can be really bland when fighting someone with your army overtime so the game should have different ways of fighting like for example in those little caves you can find not those treasure caves this revive thing that are in certain places on the kingdom. It would be cool to set army’s in there than you can sneak attack your enemies. Or you can battles where your bowmen and sieges on mountains and shoot projectiles at your enemies or like bowmen on top of the tips of trees to snipe enemies. 2. There should be more places you can roam around on. What I mean is there should be a mechanic to go on mountains, cliffs and go into a sea or something there could also be more biomes like a tundra or sea maybe even a flower field because it can change battle tactics and create new ways to play the game making old players come back and more players to come.

This game is extremely addicting but needs a few adjustments. I love this game, so far I have gotten on it for 60 days straight. It is fun, tactical-ish, and you can make friends as well as talk to random people. But those were some of the good parts, now on to the bad ones. First, it takes 100 days to research the most powerful troops aka T5 troops and there are 4 different types of those troops. Second, the amount of resources it takes to upgrade buildings in the late game and you have been playing for a long time is astonishing. It would take me a week of nothing but farming just to upgrade a level 24 goldmine to a level 25, so please nerf the amount of resources it takes to do building upgrades late game. Third, the amount of gems that you can purchase compared to the amount you can spend is terrible, you spend the gems you bought for 99 dollars in about a minute or less, so please make more gems be available for the same price, you will get more people purchasing them. Fourth, there are a few bugs but the one I want fixed is where I used 4 24 hour resource boosts so they are made faster, and they just go away, not sure what is happening there but please fix that too. Most of the problems with the game is that the developers want a lot of money, and the strongest people in my server have probably spent thousands of US dollars to get where they are, I mean the server I’m on has been up for less time than it would take to research all of the T5 troops, not including the amount of time it takes to research the 90 day things before that. In general just need the amount of resources it takes to upgrade buildings, I’m okay with the research amount, but change the research time of T5 troops to maybe 30 days, and make the purchased gems come in bigger quantities at the same price.

Surprisingly addictive. I normally hate this type of game. They all seem to be the same. However, I find this one is incredibly addictive. It’s fun to play and you can get lost playing for a long time while you balance out all of the things you’re doing at once. What makes this game different is the easy access to boosters. Normally in games like these you’re stuck waiting for hours for one building to finish. This game actually makes it really easy to earn the boosters that help them along. At least it does at first (I haven’t played this game for very long yet). The one thing that bothers me is that your generals can only gain XP by battling people. I feel like any action they do outside the city should add XP. Gathering is a great example. If your general earned a lower amount of XP for gathering, but still got some, this game would be much better. The leveling system for the generals/heroes is extremely difficult. If they worked on that a bit, the game would improve immensely. There are also appear to be some translation errors. I’m not sure where the developers are from, but there are some broken English sentences every now and then. Overall though, very well done and addictive game.

Football lover’s review. It’s an awesome and amazing game, and I play it all the time. I play this game about 6-8 hours a day or less. It’s a great game, but I’m gonna go over some problems but they’re not really that big of a deal. 1 so I know how you have to train your troops to get better but I don’t get why you have to use so much wood in like 30,000 food just to upgrade a little bit of troops but like I said it’s not that big of a deal. 2 I know I said it’s not that big of a deal but I don’t get why it takes like a day or 30 days or like a month just to upgrade City Hall. 3 I don’t get why it’s not that hard to get food and would love for me. It’s kind of hard just to get 50,000 stone, but it’s not a big big deal I just don’t get why it takes a while. 4 last one, so some days when I play this game and I’m like three hours in and I tried to attack a colony it just won’t let me attack their flag and I don’t get it like I try to sneak up on them, but it won’t let me attack or make a rally attack on them. anyway, thank you for viewing my review and I hope you have a great rest of your day bye.😄

War and strategy games are Chinese scam.. I wonder why all war grubbing money games owned by Chinese? Why they make unbalanced games that favor spending and not a real balanced game play, those games are the worst always start fun and then slowly you realize that there are some rich dictator in every server that destroy your gaming experience, played this game before left it about a year ago was hoping it won’t be money grubbing game like the last one I had, but in reality another money grubbing game and what a coincidence it’s Chinese again I wonder why all money grubbing war games are owned by China? Feel like this Chinese financial scam needs and international committee and investigations about what exactly they are doing and possibly it time to put some regulations on those games since they also false advertising themselves for something they are not I bet all of you see they lying ads showing you one type of game on Facebook but totally different one when you download it. So some research and see how many of their money grubbing games come from China and stop funding those communists.

F2P Players Beware!!!. Good game but the difference of power between free to play players and pay to win players is ridiculously huge. In most events, it’s mostly p2w players who come out on top and as a result get better commanders and equipment. Basically, the stronger get stronger and the weaker stay weak. This game does nothing to help f2p players stand against p2w players. A p2w player can just buy his way into training hundreds of thousands of troops while it takes a whole day for a f2p to train two thousand. Worst thing is you only start to realize that this game is p2w later on in the game when you’ve already invested so much. I’m done with this game, I can’t play a game where it takes f2p players many months just to max one commander while it just takes a week for a pay to win player to max one out. It’s insane how huge of an advantage p2w players get over f2p players. This isn’t going to change anytime soon either, Lilith is receiving too much money from big spenders to change the game for a more level and fair playing field for all players. FREE TO PLAY PLAYERS, BEWARE. P.S : I’m aware that the developers have a family to feed and bills to pay but it’s not that hard to put limits on how much money one person can spend in a week, like seriously, there are people who’ve spent over $200,000 dollars in this game since the game’s release which was in September of last year. That’s around $500 dollars per day.

False advertisement. It’s not a strategy game, it’s a war game. From day one, unless you know this game or have played this game before, you will get attack from those players for the so called kill points and your resources. Unless you are a big spender, this game will frustrate you because you will be lost in all the civil wars and the chance for you to level up is next to nothing. Alliances will kick you out of their group if you don’t level up fast enough to meet their demand. That is after they used you to advance their technologies and buildings. The reason is, they just wanted to bring players with higher levels so they can have their war. And at the same time, developers entice you with ads to buy stuff when you got attacked. And the word KvK is so cliche. All the YouTubers and social media that push this game receive kickbacks from the developers so you feel like this game is fun but it’s not. Unless you don’t mind the constant attack while trying to learn the game and you don’t mind wasting your money, then by all means try it. I don’t mind paying to play. that’s what I’ve been doing when consoles were a big thing. But most games that I paid for are all really fun games. This game, it’s not. Also developers, I completely detest the immigration system. Immigration should only be available after the KvK war. This way everyone is already at almost the same level. Players can either start a new game in a new kingdom if they are not happy or fight with each other (civil war) without the interference of players with high powers from another kingdom. It ruin the game for everyone when you have that kind of one sided advantage. Especially to NEW PLAYERS to the game.

Was punished for something I wasn’t even online for. This is insane. I didn’t participate in an event, I wasn’t chosen to participate in this event, and I wasn’t even online at the time. But when I did sign back on I got mail that said my account was fined for unsportsmanlike conduct. Then I was told by customer support that it was because I didn’t participate in an event. Basically I was told that even though I didn’t sign up, wasn’t chosen, and wasn’t online that my account could get banned. So just be aware. If you have a job and don’t devote 100% of your time to this game your account could get banned. When I tried to ask customer support about it again they stopped replying. So good job. I once again tried to reach out to customer service. I explained I didn’t register for the event. The answer I got was the exact same. “If you registered for the event but did not participate your reputation will be deducted.” I DID NOT REGISTER. I SPECIFICALLY DIDNT BECAUSE I HAD TO WORK. I’ve said that several times but I keep getting the same answer. This is insane. I’m going to quit the game completely at this point. Customer service is completely unhelpful. You get punished by the game devs themselves for not participating in something you didn’t register for and there no way to fix it or talk to anyone. This is game is a complete waste of time. STAY AWAY.

Fun but game not balanced. I’ve played RiseOfKingdoms for about 14 days now. The game is easy to learn to a degree. It teaches you how to play while you play. The game seems pretty stable at least on the server-side. But my client crashes about once a day. The game implements mechanics for civilization development and warfare. It can be fun to play for hours and hours. You don’t have to pay to play but doing so is highly encouraged by the game itself. I tend to dump about five dollars a day into the game, but it has packages that you can buy that cost 10 times or even 50 times more! My number one criticism of the game is that it can be extremely unbalanced from a gameplay perspective. For example there can be a character or a player that is 50 times as powerful as 99% of the other players! The game has PVE & PVP play. Unfortunately you can’t get away from PVP in most situations. In my 14 days of play I have encountered Goku, Who is a player that is 50 times as powerful as me. He moves through the land and decimates everything takes all the loot moves to the next area and repeats. I thought meeting GOKU was like getting struck by lightning the first time, but I’ve already encountered him twice. I encourage you to give it a try!

One star game.. I saw ads where you had lots of freedom, make rivers create mountains choose start location, have decisions on money spending like between getting drunk vs. buying land. Truth is, it's fake advertising, you can do barely anything the ad tells you can do and really is just an very grindy version of clash of clans. Even there are so many fake stories: look at this I escaped my first fort and now started another one on an island, FAKE nope, in the game you cant do anything from the ad the map has no trace of ialands or anything big the map is really bad for just looking like 4 year old made it. Even they are so lazy on the ads, they just copied the ad except got a paid voice actor to fake playing the game. Just look at the other games they made that have ads, anyone can clearly tell that they are exadurated of for example getting millions of xp in 3 seconds. Paid actors where you can see their phones turned off or holding their phone the wrong way the game should be played, showing very intense feeling for a mobile game. Game belongs in the dumpster where it would be incinerated and all traces of it would be forgotten. Ez one star never play again. I have been tricked by ads to download this boring game. Edit: HOLY CRAP stop distributing your cringe ads they are the definition of clickbait, they put on scenarios in the real world where the game is played for money, obviously something that never happens and paid actors faking ignorance, and having the IQ of a 2 year old to where “if you are good at game, you get a girlfriend simp” and even the game says that you can achieve #1 player in 3 days using mediocre strategies. Please stop.

I want to like this game but I can’t.. I’m giving this game 3 Stars (If you wanted to do what I did and join the game with your friends or in my case siblings and start your own alliance.) because you can’t do that, there is a system called “immigration” and it’s so difficult to get into the same kingdom as your friends and start an alliance. They give you a “beginners immigration pass” at the start that does nothing because when you try to immigrate it will say one of a few things barring you from doing so, either it will say “current season not supported.” Or it will say “Entry of Governers with beginner pass not yet capped” whatever that means but essentially you have 10 days from the day you start to immigrate to another kingdom and if you dare upgrade past city hall 7 they take it from you, if you are a solo player that likes to interact with only strangers in the world and join an existing alliance, or start one and recruit people in the kingdom the game gives you its 5 stars. Because the game itself if fun but for me wanting to play it with my family I have to grind all the way up to city hall 16! And so do they. It’s ridiculous go place state of survival because they don’t make it hard to join your friends.

Fun but cheaters prosper. So this game is super fun. Have been playing a full year and have made great friends, however the developers of this game allow cheaters to propers. Our server has gave the 1300 server in back to back KIngdom vs Kingdom events and each time 1300 has been allowed to use unfair exploits and botting programs to cheat. They have been reported multiple times and yet nothing is done to correct the issue. Worse than that, the service team actually had the audacity to reply to our complaints with a lie. Told the many of us who have complained, who have literally sent them screen shots of the cheaters, that everything had been fixed when in fact nothing had been fixed. So wonderful game until someone starts cheating, openly and blatantly cheating without any negative consequences. And the kicker is the gall of the service team to actually lie to us like we are idiots and wouldn’t notice that the cheating is still happening. Play fun for here but don’t spend any money on this game please. This company doesn’t deserve it when they treat their players with such disregard. If anyone wants to check out this awful cheating who is currently playing just check Lost Kingdom server 35. If you know the game look at the pass level 9 between server 1273 and 1300. It’s a real riot how first they claimed no cheating was taking place and then afterwards lied to us and said it was fixed.

Great, but not perfect. You know what makes a game great? If it gives you that feeling that you’re escaping the outside world. Because, I mean, isn’t that what you’re trying to do? This game of course accomplished that tenfold. However, there are a few things I think could make this game even better (seriously good game if you enjoyed KoC, Hobbit KME, etc.). Such as ; if rallied army capacity is reached, the mobilization staged should be immediately cut off and begin waiting/marching. That is probably the most annoying thing, and it isn’t big at all so that shows how great this game is. Secondly, I think you should be able to allow another alliance to be able to use your pass. It would help out with allies and such. Thirdly, some of the amounts of resources you need for upgrades are insane. Like I get that it’s because you’re supposed to invest time in it, but in all reality it just makes you spend money. Yes I know that that’s what the developers what, however for a more user-friendly experience I’d employ lower resources needed for upgrades. Other than that I mean, y’all got it on lock. I love the game. Can’t wait for the new Civs to drop!!
