Even when you budget as well as I do, use gems, and carefully, penny pinchingly calculate exact costs taking everything into account it still takes aeons to get to level 8 FROM level 7.

Took me around 10 hours, might've wasted one or two by not always going for the merging bonus of 9 or 17. Only discovered very late that you can timeskip.
Combo Master or Combo Character Collector would've been better BOTDs :v

It took me 3 days to get an "easy" badge. Reaching level 8 is long enough to make it the hard badge. Besides that, every second click offers some paid content and I hope to never see this game again as a BOTD.

Did the characters get a graphical update? There is something kinda unsettling about some of them now. They also don't fully match their on-tile selves anymore. Why is Hog Rider's hog naked? I have questions.

It takes waaay to long to get the BOTD! I got the medium badge "Combo Character Collector Badge" in less than an hour and in 2 hours I don't even have the BOTD.

It's funny checking back every so often and watching the rating slowly collapse on these shit-tier cashgrab BOTD "games". Like, congrats! The entire remaining userbase on Kong now hates your game! Was it worth it?

The Combo Character Collector Badge (medium) is easier than Apprentice of the Craft Badge (easy) because I'm still level 6.

Extremely slow, super pushy, takes forever, so many "microtransactions" that there's nothing micro about them.
With an "easy" badge that will take you far more than a day to unlock.
When flash died, so did most quality on Kongregate, who has never heard of quality control.

Alright I said this last week. I can't move anywhere I have nothing at all to merge nothing to click on and no keys to use I'm stuck trying to open area 3 that's 5 keys and i have nothing. Is there a reset because I'm just plain stuck.

I don't like doing this kind of things in games (although I don't know if this can be considered a game), and I got my BOTD the hard way through playing since Monday so I didn't need to use this, but I want to remember people here a comment someone made several days ago. This "game" is not only garbage, it's also badly programmed, so you can change your device's time and date and get full energy and speed all timers up this way. If it freezes when you change the time back, just F5, and that's the only way you are getting this BOTD in a single day without paying real money.

These hardly veiled parasitic pieces of codes should be banned on sites from masquerading as games. They use hard time locks and every tactic in the book to make you pay for any meaningful progress or you can wait... and wait... and wait... forever. These aren't games. They have as much interaction as watching paint dry, less educational value, and does its best to treating players as fools with a credit card. It doesn't even pretend to have any semblance of play, with a dumbed down merge-3 mechanics and a more timers than a beach has sand plus area locks that all but mandate pay to play.

Got the medium badge before the "easy" BOTD *sigh*
*Why put pumpkins and wheat on the ground, we can't merge them, only pick them up. They should just auto-collect.
*If it's always free to skip <30 sec timers, just lower all timers by 30 sec.
*The prompt for coin pickup makes it look like you have to pay coins to collected them.
*Fancy animations of paper unrolling, but they take too long.

On top of all the reasons why this game is awful, you shouldn't use automated translations without anyone proofreading them. For instance, "Open" can be a verb (as in "open this chest!"), but in my language it's translated as an adjective (as in "this chest is open").
Also, "sawing" is an Italian slang for m4sturbation, so you probably don't want one of your main characters bragging all the time about how good he is with a saw.

I built half a building and now I don't know how to proceed. My guess is I played for 2 minutes and now have to wait 3 hours before playing another 10 seconds... This is for a BOTD too.

The game, if we can call a game, speeds the player through the first 5-6 player levels really fast, and then cuts the legs out from under them and reduces their ability to do anything to a crawl unless they spend money to buy kreds to buy gems so they can buy more energy just to play the game for more than 3-5 minutes at a time. This really isn't a game, it's just a way for the devs to efficiently separate the player from their money and nothing more and is one of the more egregious examples of a predatory micro-transaction app that masquerades as a game.
As others have noted, unless you spend money on the game it will take 1-3 days to get to level 8 depending on how often you check back on the game, so if you didn't start before Wednesday you probably won't get the badge in time.

Well I just got the botd badge, it took me 2 days... very much recommend getting and saving the liquid rainbow, I used it on 2 Honey Hammers to unlock Grizzly Bearington and get to level 8

While the complaints from the posts worried me, I'm at level 7 after about 3 hours. Its a grind, but not really as hard as some make it.

Totally unbalanced badges seem to be becoming the norm on Kong- it's a real pity - easy badges that take days of game play, medium and hard badges that you get in the process of trying to get the easy badge - honestly, who makes these badging decisions? Do they ever actually play these games?

The Easy badge is...well, quite easy? Just need to amass a bunch of single wood logs together (click and drag to arrange them next to each other WITHOUT merging them); once there's 17+ logs adjacent, merge for the badge.

So I FINALLY made it to level 8. I started shortly after midnight last night Kongregate time and finished about 12:45am Kongregate time tonight, ie. about 24.5 HOURS to complete this so-called "easy" badge. With about 8 hours for sleep and getting ready in the morning, that's still over 16 HOURS to get this thing. Needless to say, I WON'T be going for the Impossible badge on this one. Kongregate badgers, get bent.
