DomiNations 12+

I have played from the beginning, and I really enjoy how they improved it over the years. It is faster to level up if you are just starting, they increased the resources received from the caravans and farms if you get attacked you can still advance. Oil farming is still a little rough and I am top age. So don’t be discouraged if you can’t advance fast for oil required things for I am also catching up even tho most top aged peers has better upgrades. It is still fun watching each building change with each upgrade.

It seems when each age is released the attack tactic changes for all levels so don’t worry if your army needs adjustment or it seems like you can’t attack the levels you were able to before keep trying new ways. Keep going!

The only thing I would like to change is alliance war pairing for even tho I am level 344 my alliance is lower level than me and it is hard for them to attack or we get paired with ones that just wipe us even tho my army is lower, my resource buildings are higher so I can’t even attack them strongly. I know you guys are trying so hard and maybe it is just not possible at the moment to pair with equal powered alliances all the time for I don’t want you to fix it and then we are the alliance that just wipes them out everytime. Just looking for more evenly paired wars.

The IGM (in game messaging) is the worst I’ve seen in a game. The battles are not that fun because the troops do CRAZY things no battle troops would do;they’re very willy nilly. E.g. long range siege troops are defenseless, but even though you drop archers(or later, riflemen)with them they won’t stay with them, they run off. The general acts the craziest:drop him into a battle and he can only think about raiding, even if the men ‘next door’ could be saved by him. There’s a rally button, but then all the troops across the board drop everything and come, even if they’re in the middle of a heated battle themselves, which gets them killed often. So in other words, you have little control.
They also have long standing glitches. Be careful to remember where you put your traps in your city, because often when you’re making your war city it glitches above the places that you have your traps, so you’re stuck wondering, Why can’t I put my wall or catapult here? I have nothing else here! Well dummy, in your’other’ village you’ve got a trap in that same area. Move all traps to the edge of town village before starting- or rearranging-your war city. Most frustrating is the troop donation glitch, which has always been a problem.
You can play the game for free, which I love!

This game is one of the few that I have been able to keep on my phone for a few years now. There have been times that I have stopped playing due to life, but I still come back to it. With everything there are pros and cons. The pros; the game does not only rely solely on money or sending requests for friends to join to advance levels, there are always updates to the game so it’s not stagnant. There is a lot of history that correlates with the game and sparks interest to research more on your free time. The battles are fast and helps if the user has a busy life that they cannot play the game for extensive periods of time.
The cons: some upgrades during the game take an extremely long time to upgrade to the next level. I think this discourages users to quit the game once they reach a certain level because it may required two weeks for one upgrade to fully complete without money. I understand money needs to be made, but the upgrade do not have to be that long. One recommendation are the wall upgrades, way to expensive for the amount of walls that a user can build on their base.
I wished the developers would create more options that can be placed on the base and stay permanently. Overall, this game is one of my favorites and I am going on year 3. Please do not make this game solely on money like other games have in the past. I am looking forward to more unique leaders and generals that are not hyped up in the media. Awesome game.
