Server Merges & Progression negative
Frequent server merges are a major source of frustration, leading to players losing their competitive standing, experiencing gameplay delays, and feeling their time and money invested are devalued. This often drives long-term players to quit.R11R25R27R62
Bugs & Performance negative
Users report various technical issues including unskippable ads that force game restarts, constant lagging, items not transferring, and the game not loading or being incompatible with newer devices.

Gameplay & Content mixed

Who it's for

This game is for casual players looking for a time-killer with kingdom management, hero collection, and alliance-based gameplay R16R64R107. It might appeal to those who enjoy medieval settings and don't mind a significant financial investment to progress . Skip this game if you are looking for a balanced free-to-play experience, expect responsive customer support, or are sensitive to aggressive monetization and mature themes R10R11R109R117.

Evidence note: The recent review sample skews negative, with a 0.24 recent-negative signal, contrasting the lifetime rating of 4.4. This indicates a declining user satisfaction trajectory, with many long-term players expressing frustration and quitting. While there are still positive reviews, the depth and recurrence of negative themes suggest significant issues that have emerged or worsened over time.

  1. [R4] 5/5 · US pretty fun: it’s a pretty chill game if
  2. [R36] 4/5 · US Good Game: I’ve been playing this game non stop since I’ve started. It’s not too complex yet still complex enough to where it’s not the same thing over and over again eventually getting boring. The only thing I can think of once I unlocked them was the animals. I was excited we get to tame beasts for our heroes like dragons, griffins, etc. I didn’t like that they’re not very interactive, they don’
  3. [R57] 5/5 · US Very Addicting: If you have a lot of extra time throughout the day and looking for an escape this is a great place to get lost in. I’ve been playing almost 3 years now and have to say they have done a great job with it. I don’t really pay much attention to art or the story lines any more(which are really good) it’s more about the competition and camaraderie now after over 2 years in the same allia
  4. [R72] 3/5 · US Interesting idea: Overhaul, I find the game interesting and easy to get. You grow your kingdom, find consorts to procure heirs. And you level up heroes.
  5. [R16] 4/5 · US Good game: Decent game for casual players. Love the art style
  6. [R64] 3/5 · US It’s ok: If you want a game to press buttons and collect items when your waiting for something this is the game
  7. [R107] 3/5 · US It’s worth taking a look at: It’s a good time killer when you have nothing to do. I play it for the rewards that I acquire in a different app
  8. [R215] 3/5 · US Ok game: There’s nothing wrong with the game if you want a game to waste your time with this app isn’t too bad of a choice
  9. [R53] 4/5 · US Great Game: It’s a fun game that has a little something for everybody, you can play solo towards the campaign but you can also play across the server by joining alliances and fighting other alliances. My only issue with the game is that as a new player they throw a lot at you and it can be difficult to know what to do right away.
  10. [R99] 2/5 · US Good Short Term Game: Very good game at the beginning, a lot to do and it opens new options at a good pace so that you can get a good feel for what you are doing. The community building is an aspect I didn’t expect with the alliances. The game suffers from one big problem though. In order to maintain competitive play it needs to keep pools of players competing against each other at a certain size.
  11. [R24] 5/5 · US Love this game! Must download!: If you love a game that has a great storyline, interesting characters, interactive events, and great community. It doesn’t get any better than that.
  12. [R71] 3/5 · US Meh: Games meh at best good story to keep you busy thou
  13. [R143] 3/5 · US Gotten stale: It was ok. The art design is great. But it’s boring now and the updates are practically the same events in a different shade. The main problem is these events need you to be in alliances and most of the alliances are dead or low level because all the high level players who spend hundreds of bucks join together in the same alliances. It’s basically the same winners every week so if yo
  14. [R10] 1/5 · US Game lags and unfair practices poor support: Not only games have lags but also a poor support. When you report a bug or issue either your ticket gets closed without resolution or explanation or never get answered. When you pay in game there are not only hidden charges but also issue in top up Quantities. I will say Don’t waste time playing this game even if you do enjoy playing free don’t waste a
  15. [R39] 2/5 · US Pay to play rip off: Events don’t last long enough to get anything good without paying real money, gameplay repeats quickly with no real reward. The bots that play are so far above you anything that is PVP you get knocked out instantly.
  16. [R63] 2/5 · US If you like spending cash money on games this is it: Takes forever to get anything. Instructions are poor. Even though graphics are good, I quickly became bored with it. If you don’t spend hundreds of dollars you do nothing
  17. [R117] 1/5 · US SAVE YOUR MONEY: Absolutely UNBALANCED! This app will keep you in the game trying to collect as much as you can to grow your kingdoms, get heroes, maidens and children. The events will keep you busy with small games and challenges, that will require some skills to complete, puzzles, etc…. Having an alliance with active players can definitely help. HOWEVER, it is impossible to beat paying players!
  18. [R11] 2/5 · US King’s Throne - Never Get anywhere: Don’t do it! Do not start this game. Good concept, decent game play. BUT, they merge servers nonstop so no matter how aggressively you try to advance you end up just getting further behind. Latest server merge now has created survey busy delay with gameplay constantly. Save your time and money, find another game to play. New update. Another merge. I used to sp
  19. [R25] 1/5 · US Fun at the beginning … until devs start doing server merges: Stay away, and don’t get invested in this game. It’s fun & interesting to start … until the devs start messing you over with their server merges. You will spend a lot time, effort, and money building up your strength and abilities. Then out of the blue, the devs will merge a ton of their servers into one. As an example in the most recent
  20. [R27] 1/5 · US Be smart, don’t start!: If you love looking at a spinning buffering/loading icon, this is the game for you! I’ve been playing this game for quite a while, and it just keeps getting worse and worse. Now that the devs have squeezed everyone onto one or two servers the gameplay is so slow it’s almost unbearable. Players are quitting left and right so it’s not even worth playing. Looks like it’s time
  21. [R6] 1/5 · US A slog: Very dated gameplay, been playing for a few years and it just becomes tiring with the same few events and bugs and glitches that never get patched. Been trying to get support for some event problems…i’m vip7 and only get useless chatbot responses. They then asked me to submit a review, so here it is. Time to quit, no more money from me!
  22. [R49] 3/5 · US Enjoy but has unfixed errors: I enjoy the game in most aspects but when trying to use items in my bag like prestige points it does not transfer over to where I can actually use them. I tried contacting the creators but still hasn't been resolved months later. It’s a good game and fun to play besides that issue.
  23. [R98] 3/5 · US Issues: I play on an I pad and the game will not load over half the time. I have asked support and never got a reply
  24. [R3] 2/5 · US Potential, but malfunctions: It has potential. I was starting to have fun with it. But then it would start to show ads at random times, which I am okay with for a free game. But the ads would go on and on, and literally there was no way to get out of them and back to the game without quitting. It became unplayable and I am deleting it.
  25. [R65] 1/5 · US Fix for iPhone dynamic island?: Just upgraded my phone and the game isn’t compatible. Resource metrics are stuck behind the dynamic island. How can I see them?
  26. [R35] 4/5 · US Good game: Interesting game, but gameplay gets repetitive at times
  27. [R40] 3/5 · US Idk: It’s ok but I don’t like the fact that it says I’m a male when the character is female. I feel like if we have the option to be a female then it should have that as a role not a nephew but a niece, or instead of a son a daughter. I just feel like it should be an option. As well as the maiden thing why give a male as an option but still call them a female
  28. [R45] 2/5 · US Fun game, lazy writing: There’s no good reason to allow us to play as a woman but refer to us as a man throughout the game. Two minutes from character creation as a female player and character, and immediately called a man from then out in the game. Disappointing, given other highlights of the game. The SFW option is appreciated, or it would be if it actually worked.
  29. [R397] 3/5 · GB Gd game but needs tweaking in vocabulary.: I am liking the game but from the get got even though I have chosen to play as a female it refers to the character as him not her and so on and so forth. Other than the poor lack of recognition that you have chosen female in the dialogue which to me is annoying to hell It looks alright
  30. [R93] 2/5 · US Perverts’ Palace!!!: Great place to train any perverted thoughts and tendencies that you may have. Share with your children so that they too can be perverts just like Dad!
  31. [R109] 1/5 · US Don’t Bother: The game is a pretty heavy Cash Hog if you want to advance in the game. Would be nice if the glitchiness at times was remedied. It would also be nice, since this is rated 17+, that it not be marketed within children’s games. This could be considered Soft Porn, which in my view wrecks the game. If you want that then there’s sites out there for that.
  32. [R111] 1/5 · US Don’t unless you know and want exactly what it is: I saw an add for this game and it advertised the it’s a strategy game. You can have pets and your royal.. what more could one want! Well I’m not the smartest person and didn’t look at the age recommendations. Now that I’ve seen this I was super creeped out, concerned, and uncomfortable. This game has inappropriate drawings, sounds, and ideas. At f
  33. [R114] 1/5 · US This game uses soft porn in its ads to children: Title says it all.
  34. [R95] 3/5 · US Shady stuff things aren’t always what they seem: If you invest into this game or app, you will notice that at times the purchase of gems / exp points don’t equal out that amount of gems and experience points you spent. Don’t know if it is equal to amounts spent. But after trying to make contact multiple times of trying to make contact no replies or resolution so if you decide you take your funds
  35. [R62] 1/5 · US Stay away: Game is full of high level pay players. You have to join alliance to get anywhere. You have to see the chat which is full of unpleasant things. There are players who only want to disrupt the game and are pretty successful at it. To make it worst they merge servers which makes it better for the developers bad for the players. Don’t waste your time here
  36. [R17] 1/5 · US I used to love this game: They only allow you 24 hours to redeem all of the rewards that you spend 7 days building in the games and now refuse to assist if you miss a day. I’m a long time player of this game and won’t spend anymore money on this game simply because it’s ridiculous to think everyone can play this game every day to keep up with the rewards and not miss out. Be cautious, their cus
  37. [R20] 2/5 · US Used to be fun now way too confusing: I used to love this app several years ago. It used to be very simple, which is several events every now and then but a pretty basic game to focus on with clear objectives and many things to do but now they overwhelm with the events and so many pop-up ads it’s insane. Like omg pop-up insaneeee. There’s about maybe six or seven events going on at the exact same
  38. [R41] 1/5 · US …: The reason I hate this is because I hate how the women are portrayed. It was so disgusting and unneeded. . .
  39. [R59] 4/5 · US Pretty good!: I really like the game! It’s fun and it’ll make you play for hours without you even knowing so a good time killer. I would like though if more of the female consorts had male counterparts, But other than that it is a good game!
  40. [R100] 2/5 · US I’m dissapointed: So I put a decent amount of effort in this game so I could see some nsfw content and it was just a bit addicting but that’s because I was so motivated to see some tatas and well the maidens didn’t even show anything it was just them with little cloths on the closest one this one that didn’t even have a nipple this makes me sad
