After much review of this game there are some small issues and large issues that should be fixed to improve overall game play. Let’s start with the small issues the game interface slightly buggy and lags even with the best equipment. This can be fixed. Pay to win plays strong in this game and the rates for upgrades are far above what similar games of this caliber are charging. This can also be fixed by dialing it back or increasing game play value. At the current value and game play you will have difficulty retaining players. Also, listen to the other reviews, resources that are purchased should not be available to another player if they choose to raid the customer paying for that upgrade. Those practices will break a customers trust in a product. The last major issue to look at is alliances. If you investigate as I did you find that there is a central alliance across all levels of this game. This alliance uses slightly different names but part of a larger group. This group only accepts people of a certain demographic and preys on others that are not in that demographic. In a time where inclusiveness is a major issue this will cause a product to hemorrhage potential customers at an alarming rate. This is also a simple fix that many other more popular games have addressed by regional grouping. I do this for a living for many other companies and normally charge for this type of advice, but this is a freebie. Take it or leave it that’s up to you.

This game is addictive and fun but expensive it’s a lot of fun when you find a good alliance but there are still some small problems like the lack of games at the bar that cost 50 dollars or certain events like the 1 with the pick axe forgot the name but it tells you after the event all of your completed pieces of the highest level you can save but all other pieces will disappear I spent my money saved pieces trying to wait for the next time the event rolls around to have more pieces to make better purchases but they have all disappeared after the event ends like 3 times now that’s false advertisement also getting fortress skins are impossible even through purchase and when they finally come around they cost probably 500-1k usd in purchases to obtain absolutely to expensive for a skin that gives you no ability also there are no timed team attacks so smaller players can’t take down stronger players even in a rally because they attack solo 1x1 with timed attacks as long as your attack arrives to the enemy while your alliance member is attacking both your armies with attack together up to like 5 members at a time meaning if my cp is 10 million and a 5 mill 3 mill and 4 mill send attacks that arrive at the same time there army will be 12 million vs my 10 million that will eliminate the bullying from stronger players and give smaller players more hope and give them an overall better more fun experience

I have been playing for around a year now and I can 100% say you will not get very far if you aren’t spending money or join a top 3 alliance (which means you need to spend money to be able to join). Being in an alliance does mean you will get more daily rewards but it’s definitely not enough to keep you strong in this game. Expect to be attacked by high spending players and you can’t do anything about it. I have spent a considerable amount of money to get to the strength I am but I am still not as strong as I could be and still deal with bullying from stronger alliances. Everything in this game is a money grab. And in this economy I think the pricing of things in this game is absolutely ridiculous and egregious. $100 for 10 car parts? High spending players spend at least 10k minimum on the game just to give an idea. You can get more accurate numbers on the subreddit for this game. It’s enjoyable but as you progress it doesn’t get very fun unless you are spending money. The developers responses have all been the same that is how I know they don’t really care about the free to play or low spending players. We are in one of the worst recessions and a game that is supposed to be a stress reliever in these times is causing people to go bankrupt! I think it’s very predatory of the developers. They are well aware that this game is not easy for people not willing to spend money but they don’t care! So play with caution.

A lot of alliances will work together and become Allies with one another and others will form NAP It would be nice if instead of having everyone turn up same color on the map, besides members of the alliance you’re in, other alliances that you have listed as allies or that your alliance have a NAP would come up a different color. That way you wouldn’t have to constantly check the alliance page to see who is a friendly and who isn’t. Another thing that I think should be introduced is the for alliance members to be donate or provide other members with resources. For example, say I am upgrading my garage, but I’m am short on iron. A member of my alliance could simply give me the material I need in order to upgrade that facility. Not only will this increase player interaction, but it gives a Members that can’t afford diamonds an alternative route to still be able to upgrade their base and stand a chance in this game, especially in later seasons. Plus in almost every single apocalypse game or story trading is like one of the main methods between different civilizations, and the fact that we’re able to trade with the helicopter merchant is not really realistic because any real Apocalypse situation different societies were definitely be trading with each other. Alliance member should also be to trade gear with each other and give members titles or nicknames. For instance a player that often scans the map and shares locations of possible threats or resources couldn’t receive the title of lookout.
