Really nice game, I like the wide variety of ways you can upgrade your troops, but as has been mentioned the upscale in costs don't balance well with the upscale in earnings, add in the lag and it starts to become a monotonous grind after a while...all things that can be fixed though

Well, if you just want a playable demo that is small, get rid of the Strength, Wisdom and Agility tests, Great Cloud and Whirlpool of Destiny. change the item creation to a deterministic one similar to the full version, and maybe add a chance to get runes from victories. If you want to simulate warping just give a chance to warp whenever a spell is leveled up, the higher the level of the spell is, the more chance to warp. Maybe a bit more money wouldn't hurt either, since you want in the demo demonstrate all the nice goodies we can have.

I did buy steam version becouse of how slow it runs. Turned out my video card is old since it doesn't support OpenGL. Still great concept of the game. 4/5

I really wish the Dev would show some support to the free players who cant afford a copy on steam and try to update this version a bit.

this is killing me, there wasn't much lag righ up until Transylvania but now i can't take it. I really wanna have fun with this game its a shame. . .

There... All done.
Yes, as they all say. way to much grinding. But it could so easily be made better. The blacksmith is the first i would adjust. Make an autofill button to just fill up with max/min resources. Make a sorting mechanism so it is easier to pick equipment (T1-T5) to get enough to make sure it is all upgraded. Way to little info about upgrades and that brings me to the wizards guild.
What Runes needed to upgrade cant be seen before you are ready to upgrade(XP) so you end up using a lot of magic before finding what magic you actually can use that first rune on. (hint:google)
All in all it was tedious but quite interesting game. Liked it and might even consider the steam/iOS version in the future.

Oh yay. Developers that only fix problems in the steam version of the game and not the actual flash version we're all playing.

Maybe skyscraper should be immune to polymorph. But I dont complain, 5 sec kills :P
Would love to play this on steam but cant buy a key atm

nice gameplay, but to less gold for the high levels and the crafting system sucks with high tier mats, nearly always getting the low equipment with my best mats and it needs forever to recollect them
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Got to level 30, and it gets boring after a while since the gold does not scale. Are there any more steam keys available, I would love one :)

Tried crafting a sword using 2 mithril and 1 redwood. Ended up with a Bronze Sword. After that, tried crafting a bow with 3 oak and 3 silk thread. Ended up with a Pine Bow. -.-

It´s funny cause i have a mage named Pablito who can turn an enemy into a sheep, he is overpowered, i love that but makes things really easy sometimes like when you have to kill the Boss Skyscraper, and you can farm really easy money and xp in 5 seconds battle. Afther that, i like the game, really funny

NOT an RTS, please get rid of the tag.
The crafting system clunky, tedious, and almost completely random. No reason to have 5 different versions of every material just to have it not matter almost all off the time. It's just messy and frustrating. Also wood is underutilized.
The game is currently way to grindy. I currently have 13 spells, and getting any of them to a good level requires 30+ rounds of farming a level. This makes it virtually impossible to get to properly test what spells you prefer/change to the propper spell to beat a level.
Money (and this game overall) is even worse of a grind. I have been repeating levels over 150 times and I'm still constantly drained for money.
Buuut I haven't seen any micro transactions in this game so 5/5.

this game is actually good! but its kinda lacking on something to keep you playing =( it needs more stuff . more sprites and someway to earn more gold , its painfull to grind so much money on later stages besides that , i like it

Forgot to add this in my comment but also there is quite a sizeable amount of lag, unfortunately, when trying to field lots of troops, although this is probably true for all games
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
A really great game! However a few suggestions for this that might be nice would be, a speed up button or just increase the movement speed of all troops overall, a "help" button or "?" button in the corner of each of the tabs (like tavern, barrack etc) that would bring up the instructions again instead of having to make a new file, adjustable volume levels of music/ effects (imo the sound effects are abit too loud but that's probably just me), also in blacksmithing, the chances of producing good equipment using only materials of high "power" are a quite low, perhaps if you only used materials of say, power 5, to make something you would be guaranteed at least a stage 3 (or something like that) item. Lastly, perhaps there could be a small amount of bonus gold for completing a stage for the first time.
Overall though, a very enjoyable army game, I'd give it 4.5/5 ! :)

This game is actually way more fun than people are giving it credit for. There are several refreshing ideas that keep the flow of the game pretty seamless for hours. The only problem is the lag with bigger battles.

Crafting: 4 Mithril bars give only bronze boots after 5 (!) attempts in a row!!! Now having 5 pairs of bronze boots, can't recycle, anyone want to buy this crap?
