I'm some how stuck on campaign 9. I'm lvl 4 and need a little more exp for lvl 5 to get the pikes and finish the current part of the maze.

This game has potential, but badly mired by confusing game play, poor tutorials, and most of all, really laggy/glitchy gameplay. This game is in desperate need of optimizations. I've stumbled through poor tutorials, but when it takes as long as it does to load basic game elements, there's issues that just can't be ignored. Maybe next time it hits BOTD there will be some heavy back-end upgrades.

I upgraded skills faster than the tutorial expected and now I can't advance because there aren't enough skill points to satisfy the tutorial. Is there a way to bypass?

hlopess, the best place to easily complete the "Conqueror Badge " is the wilds, 15k is much easier than most would imagine

I see you (the dev) replied to my last comment. I'm not saying there shouldn't be a tutorial, but constantly spamming animations is a pain. Remove the animations and make it a read-only tutorial and it'd be a lot smoother.
This game is so unique that without a tutorial 95% of players have no clue of what to do :) But the tutorial is a part of the game. Not like in other games, where tutorial is not related to the real progress. Here you are already doing real progress with the help of tutorial.

I'm really annoyed by this, it'd be actually playable if you just remove that 5 minute cutscene that teaches you interactions. And it occurs multiple times.
It would be then totally unclear what to do otherwise. Thats why the cutscene is mandatory. Its a totally new game genre and there are no other games similar which would have teach you before.

After so many months I still didn't get the missing Global Points tho I was promised it would get fixed. As long as this isn't the case it doesn't make sense to continue playing, which is also why I stopped.
Oh thats strange. I though it was returned/fixed to everyone. I remember doing that, how could i miss your account. Please contact me so it will be fixed.

Want to skip that stupid slow battle animation? Should be a basic feature and would even be better for the server to have it removed. But, nope, gotta pay for it! I can't support a game that locks basic features. Premium items should be things like extra skill points, gold, perm power ups. Not simple QoL options!
The battle animation clearly shows the damage and helps understanding the power of your units. Later in game you can get quite easily those 50k gems and unlock feature which removes the animations. Thats free, costs just some gems which are gained for free, for activity.

This is only the start of the day. Every BOTD is usually earned by 10-20k people everyday. If the server can't even handle more than 30 people, I expect the server to crash when it reach the thousands. I am logging off the game to give a chance for others to earn the BOTD.

That happends when there are 3x more players than ever at the peak before. The servers just cant keep up with so many online players. Its because of the Badge of the Day. Will be improved the next time, as this wasnt known, wasnt planned about that big amount of players.
It is because of the lag. There are 3x more players than on the peak moment ever before. It wasnt planned, was no information about it coming. Soon will be an update to let login only if there is not reached limit of max actively playing users. As current server can hold up to 30 actively playing users, right now it exceeds 60 and the lag is huge. But only for today.

I'm clicking to place a tower where the tutorial hand is pointing in campaign level 7. "Invalid Field parameters. Please report to the admin" it says. Well here you go, admin... I've tried placing towers in other places, but that just gets my castle burned to the ground.

I guess because there are way too many online at this moment. I didnt expect 110+ online. its 3x more than the peak ever before. The servers cannot handle that. So it is very laggy. Maybe try again later when there are not so many players online.
Ah yea, I forgot that recently the badge thresholds were changed and i had a temporary fix to adjust them. Now fixed. For the ones with the old client version will need to reload the game once reaching campaign 12. But since the reload campaign levels will start syncing properly.

can you make it so that there's a toggle option or something so that the tutorial stops handholding you through the campaign

Just informing, that the game is updated and now Bishop is unlocked at Campaign 12 and Rooks at campaign 26 - those campaigns needed to accomplish the badge requirements. Waiting for Kongregate response when they change those numbers.

To be clear I already had easy and medium badges and spent a lot of hours on the game (got to power 1789789), so it's going to be really frustrating if I have to begin from scratch now...
This game is resetting every 9 weeks. Everyone starts over. If player survives the apocalypse before the server restart, he gains Global Points, which are very powerful and can be traded directly into Gems. Also now more Kongregate badge-related progress is also cross-server (like Fields).

Is there no way to recover my progress? I haven't played in a few months and it's showing as if I've started a new game (although it remembered my username with a (1) beside it)

Even the 'follow along instructions' are incoherent and confusing. Ditch the confusing 'chess' complexity and lean into the fact that this is an obscure point-and-click 'strategy' game.
You can ask in game "Xslaughter" or he did nearly 200.000 FIelds in-game within 2 months (1 season until it restarted). He is very active and playing on this next season.

Somehow my save data is lost and the game starts from scratch, and now I can't even get through the tutorial thing, since I have disabled the "one-click build tower" option and the option page is not available in tutorial. Not to mention the heavy lag when scrolling map or moving units. No reason to start everything from zero again. Bye
This game is restarting every 2 months. And today it restarted. Players need to survive the apocalypse, which is happening at the end of the server and get cross-server global points, which persist between the servers. Also, there is a low chance to get Orange items, which persist also between the servers.

Absolutely, I have no idea really what I'm doing and have got to the point where somehow I need to upgrade my units to progress further in the game and I do not really understand how to do that.
Yep, im working on to improve the tutorial. 25th time. It's really unclear to my self what exactly can help, so adding and replacing many things around the tutorial :) But one day it might be good.
Took me 35 minutes. * Complete maze 1 * At level 10 - buy 5 blue items for 2000 gems (gained for free) * At level 15 - buy 10k Skill Points for 1000 gems. * reached level 22. Complete 2 Cave missions for HP bonus. * concentrate all Skill points into the strongest unit Health only. * use all upgrade stones on the strongest unit health-increasing items (helm, chest, shoes) - i got lucky getting 2x blue horses parts, so it was easier. completed 1x horses health research. And thats it i think.
each day you get more maze actions. But you really need more? New players have thousands of maze steps to be used, so even if you purchase that tiny amount for gems would not change much.

To the dev, the fullscreen 4 arrow thing can you change its placement? When I am clicking on figures to deploy from castle I am getting the fullscreen arrow thing instead
