Pixel Tribe 12+

I downloaded this game because the visuals reminded me of forager and it was free. I had no idea that I just stumbled across the best free mobile city builder/rpg/fishing simulator. First of all, there are ZERO pop up ads. The only time you need to watch an add to get a small about of material or micro currency. There is a subscription model that speeds up progress, however it feels achievable to earn the membership by watching ads. The rpg element is surprisingly in depth with so much customization for each villager. It allows you to form an actual connection with each villager and create the story of your own little town. There are even distinct roles in battle with dps,tank,healer,support options for each class. The fishing system at first might seem like a fun little mini-game, but the way that it connects with the rest of the game makes it a integral part of the gameplay experience. The fishing mechanic does not only provide a food source to heal the villagers after battle but it is also a surprisingly fun mechanic to engage with while all your timers are going. In summary, this is definitely my favorite mobile game to date!

I really enjoyed this game and it’s setting, as well as the lack of ads makes it nice, the fishing is a fun little thing to pass the time, and the building can be fun, the only thing I feel is slow is after you progress far enough you can’t expand as fast as you want because of the lack of workers, I understand the amount of workers = the amount of your army so more than 4 doesn’t make sense, but it does take away from the expansion and tribe building aspect, I just wanted more Vikings or hired workers or something because I’m unlocking 100 different buildings and can only use four, and in a town building game it doesn’t work the same as in something like clash of clans, it’s totally different, I just want more town expansion and different ways of fighting pve, sometimes I just have to wait it out and can’t do anything, or take days to upgrade my boat so I can keep playing the fighting aspect of the game, it’s fine and it all works but it could be more cohesive from my point of view, I end up playing other games that are just more engaging and I have so many things to do that I’m being pulled in different directions, it makes it fun, and that’s all this is missing, but I’ll just have to wait.

I’ve been checking out a lot of games lately & approached this one with the usual suspicion. The graphics are cute but I wasn’t sure there was enough substance/strategy for my current mood. After an hour or so of not paying attention, I discovered how the vikings’ skill points/ability system works. Example: if you put 5 points into “Fighter”, it immediately unlocks the Fighter 5 skills. Same for “Mage” & so on. Also, you can replay old raids to gain XP & “War Fragments” (costs a little in-game gold) so you can try out different abilities without remorse. I’ve been playing a couple of days now & haven’t encountered any glitches. It’s a lot of fun with no pay walls so far. Probably the most generous devs I’ve seen in a long time. You get premier currency occasionally from productions, quests, etc. I gained enough from 10ish hours of play to buy the VIP membership for a week = +XP, +worker speed, & passive health regen. (There seems to be only 1 level of membership.) Yeah… good game - well done - kudos to the devs - recommended.
