★★★☆☆

The game is undoubtedly pretty and well designed. There are a few areas where I feel the game really stalls, however. Without in app purchases, the game really slows to an insufferable grind, and resource demands far exceed my willpower to do the same monotonous tasks over and over. PvP is also lacking. Ants can be commanded to attack, but creatures are daft and almost never stay on task even while my army is getting ripped to ribbons. They just wander and barely get involved, far too often.

5 stars! I would give it way more but I can't. But when i open it on my Chromebook, it's just a gray screen. But now that I play it on Mac, I can actually play it. Great game overall, PLEASE keep updating it and adding new stuff Ariel Games! Maybe like a new co-op boss, or anything else! Creatures, a new clan war thing, or maybe something completley different!

Its a great time killer that offers a casual yet strategic gameplay experience. It’s easy to pick up and play at your own pace, focusing more on tactics and long-term strategy than on realism or simulation. The progression is long-term, upgrade skills and abilities over time. It doesn't bombard you with ads—you choose if and when to watch them. Con: Need to have good connection as rewards are cloud based. If you lose connection at a bad time may lead to lost reward. For me is rare, no biggie.

I give this game a 5 star. It is fyn and addictive and over all the Devs did a really good job on this game. It also not filled with ads. I actually havent watched a single ad. Which makes me super happy. There is however a few things i believe should be looked at. 1. The creatures need to spawn more freaquently. Maybr only allow for people to capture one creature a day. But having the ability to fight them and then the option to collect there parts would be cool. Ran out of review space.
