Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

WHAT THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT · SHARE OF BAD REVIEWS
Worse after an update31%

25 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Another update, and now the AI is even more hyper aggressive.
★★★★★ Special tribes are fun on their own, but including them as side AIs in a multiplayer game completely imbalances it. I don't know why they changed it so special tribes couldn't be excluded anymore.
★★★★★ Update: Für eine gewisse Zeit war die Spielmechanik richtig eingestellt.
Bugs, things not working11%

9 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I can zoom out but can't zoom in. Too small to see on a phone
★★★★★ The app just stopped working.
★★★★★ Every single time I try to buy a tribe I get greeted with the same error initializing payment message.
Price and subscription6%

5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I spent money purchasing every tribe on my Android and guess what - I lost all of those purchases after switching to iOS.
★★★★★ They jsut keep you charging the same purchases each month
★★★★★ You can't even just do free play anymore, you have to spend money to unlock enough tribes to be able to do it.
Lost data, sync, backup4%

  • THIS GAME NEEDS MORE UPDATES I WANT NEW TRIBES AND SKINS DANG IT 1★, Sep 9, 2026

  • Need more investment into the multiplayer experience, fix a few bugs, and this could be a staple of multiplayer gaming. 5★, Aug 27, 2026
  • I would love to see a true team version even if it doesn't track your ELO. 5★, Jul 24, 2026
  • Maybe a free camera, photo mode, or cinematic view would be amazing. 5★, Jul 22, 2026
  • As I usually use Simplified Chinese, I hope the developers can add a Simplified‑Chinese language option in future updates. 4★, Jun 12, 2026
  • Would it be so hard to add a matchmaking option to where you can “avoid” playing other tribes? 3★, May 4, 2026

★★★★★Oct 19, 2026
Favorite Game but getting bored

Fantastic strategy game however, with no updates in forever we there are no new strategies. A few of the tribes are completely over powered and some of the tribes are nearly unplayable. Great game but I wish the developers gave it a little more attention recently… more active tweaks and updates to keep the game balanced and fresh. Every match turns into the same battle and strategy. No new troops. No new tribes. It gets a bit repetitive. Overall fantastic game. Tbh should be even bigger but I think it hasn’t gotten the attention it should simply because of the above critiques.

★★★★★Oct 16, 2026
=D

This game is fun, strategic, and unpredictable. I love the art and how you can choose which tribe to play. It also is an adaptive experience, so you can choose how hard the game is for you.

Peak is all I hav to say

★★★★★Oct 15, 2026
AI don’t take over cities

When playing offline, AI will enter a city but not capture it. Practically makes it impossible to lose even on crazy mode. Numerous updates and yet this is still not fixed. Haven’t been able to play in months. Please fix this.

★★★★★Oct 15, 2026
Game feels abandoned

Feels like the developers gave up. Game has been unbalanced for probably nearly a year with no changes or fixes. No new content or updates just minor “patches.” Sad that nothing has been happening with no explanation.
