The new user experience is exceptionally poor. The tutorial is ok, but immediately afterwards you will run out of energy and either need to wait many hours OR open your wallet. Seriously, you can only play for about two minutes before running out of energy. Because of this, my initial impression was very low (1*) and nearly deleted the app.HOWEVER, if you can slog through the first island, the game will start providing many opportunities to gain energy. Such as loot boxes on the ground, viewing optional ads, and an item merge chain on the home island. This is when the game actually begins to be enjoyable.If you can make it to the second island after the first several days of playing, your game experience will drastically improve.

The energy loss is massive when playing, not surprising, and the energy fill options are too small. Most of the time you’re waiting for it to refill and cannot play. The game can be forgotten because of that, so I’d ask to balance it a bit more. No one should have to pay to play. Very fun otherwise.

This is a great game, fun and very addictive. Any island you land on starts off good because there’s an abundance of free energy until there’s not. I never thought I had an addictive personality but when it comes to games I want to play I do. I have embarrassingly spent an absurd amount of money on this game and kick myself for doing it because the money could have been used elsewhere.After an update I also lost the ability to save my rubies to 4 and energy to 35, which is nothing. I do keep telling myself that I will be deleting this game but I haven’t yet (addictive personality).

I thought this game was going to be great. I was introduced to it through Clockmaker. It was great for a while. Then I couldn’t get further than 4 rubies by merging. Everything shrank. At least I could get extra energy through boxes and watching ads. Then that shrank too. 25 down to 20. Or 15 down to 10. Then the opportunities dried up. No offers to watch ads. No opportunity to get extra energy. Back to playing for a few minutes a day. I WILL NOT spend money every time I run out of energy. I’d go broke. Probably won’t continue after I finish this expedition. Too bad. It was a fun game.
