1. [R14] 5/5 · US This game is amazing!!!: They have so many characters to get and have good ideas for events.
2. [R31] 5/5 · US Needs some improvement, but WOW: I just started playing this today, but it’s extremely good! Some characters lack voice lines, sfx are pretty repetitive, but (i think) the game is new so it is to be expected. But overall I like this game a lot :3
3. [R54] 5/5 · US Five star: Pretty good game honestly if you like history
4. [R64] 5/5 · US Cool: It’s great to have interaction with history like this
5. [R35] 5/5 · US Such a great game: Graphics are great, events are super fun. This might be my very favorite game
6. [R51] 4/5 · US Love it, but…: This game is fun and the graphics are beautiful. HOWEVER, the fact that it sets NIKOLA TESLA up as a VILLAIN, and KARL MARX as a HERO is HIGHLY disturbing. Tesla offered FREE ENERGY to the world. Marx’s philosophy has lead to immeasurable death and suffering. WHY ON EARTH would a game set them up as opposite to what they really were?!? Otherwise… fun app, guys.
7. [R84] 5/5 · US Very good nice animation: Be a lot cooler if they added William the conquerer, actually I hope they just keep adding people it’s nice
8. [R91] 5/5 · US ❤️❤️❤️: I love the graphics. Is a little laggy at times and has lots of opportunities for watching ads but, no forced ads. Overall a great game! 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
9. [R13] 5/5 · US Solid: Very fun
10. [R21] 5/5 · US Repeat: At first it seems exactly like rise of cultures But after playing for a week or so I now see that yes there are some similarities but there is enough that’s new and different to make it worth your time. Update Stopped playing for awhile but started again and like all the updates and changes. New fav!
11. [R41] 5/5 · US So far so good: So far so good
12. [R42] 5/5 · US Such a good game: Tbh I love it
13. [R1] 1/5 · US Current Ithaca event completely fails. Players on strike: Consistent impossible unobtainable awards not just for f2p but p2p too. Tons of bugs. Devs never listen to main game base and respond when literally the whole chat is rioting. You know it’s bad when multiple loyal players are begging for bare minimum for the devs to actually hop in and listen and change as we ask. Not to mention so many sma
14. [R2] 2/5 · US Unplayable: The new events are unplayable without a large donation; the greed of idiots will ruin this game, as it has already ruined many good games. In six months, this game will become a useless swamp with a small group of high-dollar players.
15. [R3] 1/5 · US Ithica event completely fails. Players on strike!: This was a great game and could still be but the developers are delivering untested buggy events and taking peoples money for the pleasure of being their guinea pigs. Ithica is the latest and worst thing they’ve done yet, amazing idea but impossible to obtain the main time-limited event prize without spending an estimated upwards of $500 in order
16. [R5] 1/5 · US Ithaca is a total failure: The new Ithaca event is a total failure. It’s impossible for FTP players to get the hero awakening that’s limited to this event only, and even players spending money find it nearly impossible without spending a LOT. This is so disappointing to see from the devs.
17. [R11] 3/5 · US Connections: The game won’t start up or update. Keeps saying g connection error
18. [R18] 3/5 · US What happened????: After the last update the game won’t load anymore. I’ve reinstalled it twice now. I’m absolutely upset. I’ve spent so much time and money in this game please fix
19. [R19] 4/5 · US Is it down?: I love the game, but I haven't been able to get into it for about three days. What's going on? It just keeps loading.
20. [R20] 1/5 · US Unable to open app for multiple days: I used to get on and play at least once or twice a day for awhile. Recently, it closed and doesn’t reopen at all for more than three days.
21. [R9] 1/5 · US They only want your cash: The ongoing Ithaca event is purely a cash cow and is quite impossible for FtP people. Heck it’s even impossible if you spend a lot of money
22. [R27] 3/5 · US Interesting, Fun, Cash grab: I've been playing for just over a week. I've played dozens of mobile games and this looked like one of the better ones. What it has going for it - you can play on multiple platforms, great design idea - develop you heroes by building and improving your city. Fun stuff! On the downside - it's a real slog, unless you cough up lots of $$ and/or spend a lot of time watchin
23. [R28] 1/5 · US Pull rates suck: Enjoyed the game a while but pull rates are absolute trash waiting 200 pulls for a pity pull is absurd,now tiered monthly event to try to force you to spend and f2p by tying pulling monthly characters with poor pull rates to season goals. New Atlantis feature tbd but initially look like a money grab “random” match in first week has us 5 million less power than the next in our gr
24. [R25] 1/5 · US Inno scum: These guys are scum. They just acknowledged ripping me off due to a bug and told me that they weren’t going to fix it. They take every opportunity to milk you for cash to the point where you can’t complete ANY of the event tasks without spending real cash. Avoid inno!
25. [R68] 1/5 · US If you don’t like it don’t play it: This is what a customer service representative told me when I reached out with an issue that never was resolved. Ever since the customer service representative told me this, I quit playing and deleted every INNO game off my kids phones. No one in this house is allowed to play Inno games.your outto bud thanks for making it easy for me customer service rep.
26. [R73] 1/5 · US Not Happy: I had to replace my iPad unfortunately the game I had spent a lot of time in a little bit of money on was nowhere to be found once the backup came back. I attempted to email but nobody responds so I’m not really sure what to do other than give it a very bad review. Game was fun not enough to start over.
27. [R74] 1/5 · US Just why!🤬: When I stop playing for a bit It just basically deleted itself and when I re-downloaded it all my progress just gone
28. [R24] 3/5 · US Cultural Sites Suck!: The worst part of this game by far is managing cultural sites. It’s hard enough just to manage the space that you have. Making players figure out how to optimize based on cultural site placement is such an unnecessary waste of time and it really ruins the pace and enjoyment of the game.
29. [R32] 2/5 · US Fix these things please: The game has a bunch of annoying mechanics that if fixed would make the game better. Speed up the combat, I cannot control the outcome so let me skip the fights or allow me to speed it up faster than 1.5x that’s not fast enough. The game pausing when heroes use their abilities is so damn stupid. Why pause the entire game, during PvP it’s just abunch of stupid pauses is s
30. [R36] 3/5 · US Getting a bit overwhelming and slow: I enjoy the historical characters and the world building but it’s very very slow to progress… the requirements to build characters is staggering and very slow. The novelty is wearing off and you can’t use what you’ve built in any way. Cannot raid others, cannot customize anything. The Tesla levels become unreal at level 40. The time to get to level 45 with all
31. [R38] 3/5 · US Unfair to newer users: I love the concept of this game a lot. It’s fresh, interesting, the gameplay is engaging and animations are fun. However, not only is it becoming very tedious to play - you have to spend hours on the app with all the simultaneous events - but also the game mechanic completely locks out newer users from any meaningful rewards in said events. In comparison, your other game FoE
32. [R12] 2/5 · US Going downhill: This is one of the best games I have,, but lately, lots of crashes and super throttling on antimatter… redeemed 200+ and got a repeat - even with a 10x Washington sitting there. Really???!!
33. [R16] 3/5 · US Antimatter: I enjoy playing the game and it’s made some good improvements since I had it, but I just learned that if you don’t use the event antimatter time portals you’ve earned before the event concludes you lose them and don’t get them back. I don’t appreciate that because I was saving up enough to do a 10 at once summon, but only had 9. Since the events are rotate and come back around I figure
34. [R62] 2/5 · US Easy start up, duplicate characters often: Easy start up, duplicate characters often, you never get decent characters to level up. Disappointing start to a really good start of a game
35. [R4] 4/5 · US Where is JESUS: The game is really good but if you have Cyrus the great you gotta have JESUS And maybe Sampson
36. [R29] 1/5 · US Are you serious right now?: No Adolf Hitler
37. [R30] 1/5 · US So much wrong here….: The previous reviewer is correct and the company is misleading in its response. It is not based solely on fiction. The company is based in Germany and the characters have a biography section that is intended to be based on actual facts. Karl Marx is not described as a villain really and is more hailed as a controversial hero. In the game, he is one of the better 3 star charac
38. [R33] 5/5 · US A new hero: You should add in Teddy Roosevelt he’s a great man and a great president you should add him in the game
39. [R70] 5/5 · US So far so good: Tutorial is fun. Definitely pay to play but fun as an FTP player
40. [R181] 3/5 · US Great Game!: I play Rise of Cultures and Heroes of History. They are very close to being the same game. For Heroes, developers should make the events so we can continue to build the cities - like Rise of Cultures. The shifting of events is repetitive and sometimes boring. The Treasure Hunt appears to be exactly like the hunt in Rise of cultures. Why not create something new? Oh, and a pirate at
41. [R183] 3/5 · US Twin to Rise of Culture: Not a bad game but if you play/played Rise of Culture you don’t need this game too. They are nearly identical in all ways- form and function. I downloaded thinking it might be a new/updated/enhanced version…but not. Two of a kind…exactly. Boring unless you have not played Rise of Culture.
