  1. [R5] War Dragons 4/5 · US Review: Glitches with claiming multiple event prizes still exist. No multiple leveling available for dragons ( 1 click per lvl). Great artwork for dragons. Resources recovery after attacks are easy unlike other games. Translation feature is nice
  2. [R9] War Dragons 3/5 · US Level up: There’s gotta be an event or multiple use pearl that can level up an dragon. Including dragons of past events.
  3. [R23] War Dragons 5/5 · US War Dragons 5 ⭐️: This is Chess ♟️ a great strategy game for the mind but in a different format. Love the dragons and events

  6. [R13] War Dragons 1/5 · US Don’t bother: This game used to be good. Developer does not care about players. Servers time out all the time and crash regularly. They don’t make it right and put very little effort into the game.
  7. [R14] War Dragons 5/5 · US Won’t load: My game won’t load please help I want to play this game so bad!
  8. [R15] War Dragons 3/5 · US Bug in game: Hello, I don’t receive eggs or resources after completing mission. Do you guys still fix the bug ? Or have you all given up on the game and so should we?
  9. [R12] War Dragons 3/5 · US It’s a ok game: I had to pay to keep playing the game. It told me it had to like update my storage or something, but it told me that I had to pay to do it so I stop playing this game for a while, but the graphics are really good and it’s just a fun game.
  10. [R16] War Dragons 1/5 · US Game is dead: This game was fun but now is dead. You have to spend $20 per month to even lightly participate. It is super buggy and the developers don't even bother to reapond to tickets anymore. I had a whole seasons work go to nothin g because they wouldn't fix a glitch that happens all the time! They never even responded. Game is dead.
  11. [R17] War Dragons 4/5 · US War dragons: Fun but pricey better if you have money to burn to keep up with the bigger teams PG does seem to favor the money Diamond teams but they and the Diamond teams deny it.
  12. [R24] War Dragons 3/5 · US Want to spend to be cool?: This game has always had its issues, but was pretty decent. My main reason for sticking around when it got boring was because of the interpersonal interactions. Really great. But the developers make it very obvious that your opinion doesn’t matter if you’re not a whale. But if you are a whale, they will change gameplay for you. Spend money here if you want to have the ga
  13. [R1] War Dragons 1/5 · US Unacceptable: I have played this game for years and the support team has usually been helpful.. until now. I have been unable to access my account for 4 weeks and the support team has done nothing to resolve the problem in fact they have been actively Deleting my support tickets 😡😡if this is how they support the game they will have no players left very soon. Totally Unacceptable and embarrassing 😡
  14. [R7] War Dragons 1/5 · US Frustrating: I had this game for several years now and this is my first time leaving a review, I am having problems with my game for months now and these customer supports are non-existent. They need another update on the app! and better customer support. No follow ups, not even an acknowledgement from the emails sent. So frustrating!
  15. [R2] War Dragons 4/5 · US Meh: I loved war dragons but I also liked to talk in the chat then I had gotten banned for no reason
  16. [R3] War Dragons 3/5 · US Adult supervision required: Good game. Beware of teams. Most players are manipulative keyboard warriors.
  17. [R4] War Dragons 1/5 · US Game sucks: Don’t bother starting this game. As someone who has played for years, I can tell you it’s not worth your time. There are a handful of powerful teams full of level 700+ players, and there’s nothing to prevent them from stealing what teams with lower level players have worked for years to get. The rules the game admins claim to have put in place to help actually disadvantage weaker teams
  18. [R18] War Dragons 3/5 · US Good game but feels political: Good game, had good dragon variation and creativity but feels overly political and american-ized. Plenty of non-american teams and players but feels uncomfortable to play especially if not a fluent english speaker.
  19. [R33] War Dragons 3/5 · GB Was a great game but is slowly becoming unloved by devs and PG: I’ve been playing the game since Feb 2019. I have invested a lot of time, love and money, but apparently dragons have cost of living issues too! But seriously, I don’t mind a stretch but tye game is moving to a point where it impacts QOL if you want to just keep up. But, if you don’t mind taking it slow then it’s probably a great ga
  20. [R66] War and Order 3/5 · US Pricing: Game is free to play, but , to be a contender it cost way to much money taking away from the enjoyment of the game. There needs to be more balance for none paying players to complete with those who spend thousands
  21. [R67] War and Order 2/5 · US Fun but expensive: In this game you HAVE to spend money regularly to be competitive. Playing this game without money is terrible, there is no way to compete fairly without having to fork out a lot of money.
  22. [R72] War and Order 3/5 · US Fun but expensive: Fun game but it’s very expensive to stay competitive
  23. [R73] War and Order 1/5 · US Pay to play all the way!: Predatory monetization! They will constantly try to force you into buying more and more and more. It will never stop! You will never get ahead of “the game!” You will regret playing.
  24. [R79] War and Order 1/5 · US Not what you see in preview: Game is nothing like the preview you see in ads.
  25. [R85] War and Order 2/5 · US Misleading adds, castle building game..: Misleading adds, it’s a real time castle building strategy and team game, that takes a long time to be competitive with people who have been playing for years. There are mini games like this, but they are so few and spread out it’s misleading to show the game for what it’s not.
  26. [R90] War and Order 3/5 · US Deceptive!: This is not the game that is advertised.
  27. [R96] War and Order 3/5 · GB Game play: The game play shown in the adverts seem to be completely different to the actual game I’ve been playing it for ages now and seem to not have actually come across anything that’s shown in the adverts for the game, but still tho it’s not a bad game fun to indulge In
  28. [R19] War Dragons 1/5 · US Flaky servers, support nonexistent: I’ve played this game for years and although it’s gotten quite repetitious, I’m far into it and have - er, had - a goal. But recently I can’t log on. I’ve done all the things support used to say (back when there was support) including restarting, re-installing the game etc etc. No joy. I wrote support based on the error message and even sent them a screen shot
  29. [R31] War Dragons 1/5 · US Support Team Sucks: I’ve been trying to get a response from the support team for awhile now over problems with my account I can’t log into it therefore I’m falling behind
