  1. [R4] King's Throne 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!
  2. [R9] King's Throne 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.
  3. [R18] King's Throne 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.
  4. [R19] King's Throne 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
  5. [R1] King's Throne 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.
  6. [R7] King's Throne 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
  7. [R10] King's Throne 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
  8. [R12] King's Throne 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
  9. [R25] King's Throne 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
  10. [R30] King's Throne 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
  11. [R40] King's Throne 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.
  12. [R13] King's Throne 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
  13. [R58] King's Throne 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
  14. [R63] King's Choice 3/5 · US Pay to win: i loved this game but to actually progress and get titles and win events it makes you pay for the ingame items. ive done it. got ranked #1 in an event just for some guy who had to pay like 100 bucks just to beat me i bet this game wouldnt be a thing if the guy quits the game he’s been playing since 2023.
  15. [R79] King's Choice 1/5 · US Pay to Play Only: If you’re looking for a casual game for fun. Don’t bother. The game is full of toxic people who shell out hundreds of dollars for events. If you don’t spend, you can’t ever win.
  16. [R36] King's Throne 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
  17. [R52] King's Throne 1/5 · US Ban account without explanation: The game is fun and all a little confusing, event not always truth they cheat a little not always give the prizes they supposed to give, and most frustrating of all can’t ever reach anyone for help, they ask for sever ID a lot of stuff and in the end can’t even sent it most of characters straight up plain. If I could rate it zero stars I would… if you feel like it
  18. [R6] King's Throne 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
  19. [R34] King's Throne 1/5 · US .: Have u ever show any respect to woman player? choosing gender is a joke in this game
  20. [R46] King's Throne 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.
  21. [R66] King's Choice 3/5 · US One shade of skin tone: Will you guys ever update the game to have more skin tones? Or is it set to pale only
