I am enjoying the game but I don’t have much money to spend. I have spent all I can. I bought four $1.99 packs that were supposed to add a good deal to my gold. I got other resources but no gold which was why I bought them. The other reviews saying so much needs to be spent to play the game worry me and I am becoming bored by only upgrading things and collecting resources. Not sure what might make it more interesting to me but I think a storyline would help. It would feel more RPG. I loved playing Adera, for instance. It felt more like I was actually part of the game and not just a monitor going through motions. I have a brain disorder that makes reading and learning anyway but listening to instructions and practicing very difficult.i would love to have a tutorial that is read aloud and available for multiple uses with each new stage I reach added.

The LAG is just deplorable! You would think being on high speed WiFi would help the game play but with the merging of servers it’s a hot mess. It has only gotten worse. Constant updates that prevent you from playing the game that never improve the game. There are never enough resources to build. You will have to spend your money to accomplish anything. Constantly competing with those who have the money to blow on the game. You can only dominate the game if you throw a heap of money at it. It’s not even interesting enough to spend that kind of cash. If it weren’t for my friends on the game I would delete it all together. The building of gear is pointless. Really too many issues to list. I find the game to be even more boring with each passing day. I’m looking for another game we all can bounce to. Something that doesn’t have repercussions that break your pocketbook when your life keeps you from checking in on the game. I don’t need the stress. If you don’t shield your left in absolute ruin and would need to buy packs with your hard earned cash to get back to where you where. I really resent the censorship that this game imposes on the player. Most games give you the option. I live in the USA where we have the right to say what ever we want. Life is about differences of opinion. We live with our differences not smothering out what you don’t want to hear. I find it offensive and ridiculous. I appreciate the freedom of expression regardless if it is a popular point of view. Stop blocking the emojis. Seriously! Juice is not worth the squeeze.

The game was fine before and I even payed to get a good start. After the update it seems the game has down graded. First off it takes a lot to just be stable in this game. Higher level players pick of lower levels constantly leaving me, a starter, having to constantly use resources to repair ships and get back the troops that I’ve lost during defense. There are really only a couple major ways to get resources which is through Marigold’s quests, hunting and raiding, and through accumulation of alliance gifts. All but one of those you must have ships and troops to achieve which is hard to do when you’re constantly getting attacked and have to put a peach shield every 8 or so hours if you don’t have have a 24 hour one to protect you while you steadily repair your ships. Lately I haven’t even had enough to repair my ships nor gain any troops so I’ve had to spend more money into getting myself out of the hole those higher level players shoved me into. My suggestion is fixing the amount of resources it takes to fix your stuff and the waiting times are crazy. One to two days for your ships to become “un-sunk.” Its a real struggle after this new update.

All JoyCity games have a very short lifespan. After the first year, the original development team moves on to work on new games. That is when the current games really get tossed aside. All their games with servers die off much faster than most other games. Customer service is not reliable at all. Sure you will see comments here about their games but none are personal and all are copy and paste. Do not expect any action taken on their part. They simply fake an active game long enough to get people to spend. Then the game is thrown away. Also, they love to revoke players accounts. Sometimes they create errors in the game and then ban any player who was involved. Of course how can the player be at fault when it is the company who creates the game errors. But JoyCity will never admit to being wrong. Instead they will ban your account without warning and send out emails blaming players. Again, not a reputable company at all. Play at your own risk. Best of luck.
