Under rating threshold (show) Loved this game, at first. Really did. But then you kept changing things. Like the different districts, pretty cool idea but not when you're not buying the tokens. If you don't buy the tokens you can't really get anywhere after a while, you just can't sell what the customers want which then makes it hard to pay the rent in the higher end districts, wich then forces you to move back to another lower disctrict where you can't level up anymore. I wouldn't mind advertisements and the like but having to pay real money for certain things in a game is fairly ridiculous in my opinion. So I'm out. It was a pretty great game while it lasted but not worth paying ten bucks for 1000 tokens, especialy when the recipes cost 25 tokens and at least half the recipes I've seen so far require you to spend tokens to get. I understand you're trying to make a living but the reason I play games on Kongregate is that they're free.

Under rating threshold (show) Kongregate shouldn't give badges to games to have to pay to play. Not a bad game but I'm a poor college student. That's why I play games here instead of going out and buying games.

Under rating threshold (show) Why have a day regeneration time? I'd pay kreds to good games with free play, no catches, rather than to games that consistently try and force you to give kreds. And seeing as how I don't fancy a 20min wait for the next day, I'm more likely to close the game and not come back at all! How many kreds do you think you'd get then?

Under rating threshold (show) seriously...... buy DAYS??? why do you think a great game like this have such a low rating?? because you guys want to sell everything in the game!!.... if at least the DAYS were free... the game at least would have a 4.5 rating and win a prize in money!!

Under rating threshold (show) I'm sorry but... you made what would be a GREAT single player game, then added a multiplayer component that achieves... nothing, really, apart from making you hope that the people in your guild actually help build what you've already sacrificed a hell of a lot of gold for. The demands to keep paying for things rather than, I dunno, having ads (and actually letting us use thugs without paying, since that's one of the things you're promoting the game on...), are annoying but if this was singleplayer... ignorable. Besides, wouldn't it end up cheaper for you to make this singleplayer? Less server load and stuff. ._.

Under rating threshold (show) Fixes: There should be a back or undo button. You usually can not depend on your guild members to complete items bought with gold. The amount of points needed should be reduced. The need to use tokens to buy things efficiently should be reduced. There should be a better way of chatting between guild members like the public chat box. Press + is you agree.

Under rating threshold (show) great concept for a game, but the need to pay real money for this type of game is insane. This is clearly a cash generator, and not a game player pleaser. The other games that edgebee has are the same, pay real money for this item, pay real money to explore the map, pay real money level up faster etc and blah blah blah. Hate that greed got in the way of a decent game.

Under rating threshold (show) Edgebee Studios, you will NEVER see my money. Ever. Your "freemium" model is terrible in my opinion. Give people access to 90%+ of the game free then allow progression a little faster for those who pay. These games you have are not worth paying to play as I can find similar games for less, or even free. If you let me get into the game then offer a speed boost for a few dollars, I would pay. Your blunt way of asking for money dispels any and all desire to keep playing for me. Please, PLEASE learn some sales tactics if you want my money. Excuse my rant, I am going elsewhere. Feel free to hit the minus button and hide my comment

Under rating threshold (show) The game is a lot of fun. Very aadictive. But, i suppose, the creator could have put some advertisment instead of "waiting times". Much more players would play, i suppose, if they should watch some.. 30 sec commercial, instead of waiting 30 mins for next day :3

Under rating threshold (show) I must thank Edgebee for making me wait a full hour for another single game day. I've read the forum AND the comments and found at least 100 other people who agree with me that the pay-to-play system is forced too far down our throats and really doesn't belong on Kongregate in the first place. A shame too, I really wanted to like this game.

Under rating threshold (show) A really great game though it could be so much better and needs to be if people are going to continue to play. There's just too many problems that stop you from wanting to continue playing, upgrades to your shop are too expensive then having to hunt out people to are wiling to build them for you is too much of a chore, I spent 3 days (Real Time) setting up a guild and getting people to join then my guild suddenly disappears and I end up going bankrupt and losing everything, I started again but I'm just not enjoying it anymore, I think an offline option were you could build and upgrade your own shop would please a lot of players with the option to trade online. Please fix your game, it could be legendary 3/5

Under rating threshold (show) I'd like these Edgebee games a lot better if they weren't multiplayer. There's always server issues. The same thing happened with Critterforge. I can get by the fact that they charge for "special" items. The game is still playable. I just think requiring it to connect to a server and being multiplayer unnecessarily complicates things and bogs the game down.

Under rating threshold (show) There's nothing to say about this game that hasn't really already been said. I really like it (despite its occasional flaw), but I'm giving it 1 star for this token crap. Whether on mobile or Kong, I'm tired of developers thinking they're clever for making these "freemium" games that try to lure users in and then slowly leech money out of them by trying to exploit people's impatience. It's one thing if the waiting is a fundamental part of the game, but it's not here. I don't appreciate companies trying to take advantage of me, and I refuse to support those who try. 1 star.

Under rating threshold (show) You MUST put an autocraft option (with detailed options). It's an extreme pain in the ass to give the same order again and again to all craftsman everyday. Making research feels like vacation. Please, it's already time for autocraft option.

Under rating threshold (show) This game should be a 5/5 but it's lost 2 simply because it's basically p2win. I find it disgusting that Kong would basically allow you to buy a hard badge by spending 20 bucks (which translates to 2000 tokens which is what you need to basically buy 2 workshops) on a task that would otherwise be EXTREMELY time-consuming, thanks in part to the ridiculous co-op points system which makes 0 sense and forces people to play this game socially. The irony is if guilds didn't vaporize your money with fake fees and if you could spend your OWN damn carp points instead of trading carpenter for carpenter more people would actually interact as intended rather than just creating guilds to trade and then buggering off. Honestly belongs on facebook, not on a free games site like kongregate.

Under rating threshold (show) Dear Day Regeneration, Not only do you ruin the game for me, but you also try and steal money from me so I can play a good game for five more minutes. I liked life when I could manage my shop unrestrained by "day" limits. But when you came in...ugh. Fifteen minutes for one minute of playing time. Talk about a game spoiler, and don't even get me started on the tokens. PLEASE DISAPPEAR. NOW. Thank you.
