Been trying to beat the boss on Extra 8 for two days now. How the hell are you supposed to beat him when he just goes through your troops? I'm spending every single point of mana on walls to keep him away from my hero as long as possible, and then I even try to sneak past him with the hero, only to get one shot. Does anyone have a better tactic? If so, please do share.

2 thing. Extra stage 8. The boss is unbeatable. He keeps going away from my hordes and straight to my hero. And it could be very cool if I could upgrade mana and stuff.

Personally i really miss the Castle with the auto arrow machinegun on it.. lol. And the battle field doesnt seem as epic due to a smaller field.. Its still a great series. ^^ 8/10

Good game, the epic war series was so epic that people had gr8 expectations from this game..Only complain was the graphics was a bit wierd..Loved the part where any kind of accessory could be used by any kind of unit, but still I found EW4 better than this one. If this is 9/10, EW4 is 10/10. Anyways, congo to the dev, good job!

I like this game in effect, although, some small pointers, I guess to improve...
Not sure exactly which one you want, but back/forth arrows when in skill menu would be appreciated....Instead of having to close, click on the next picture, then click on skill again...
And maybe a simple quick spell thing, not really sure how to cast spells yet, but it seems tedious...
I like how the game has gotten smaller levels, fewer units, so you're not waiting 7 minutes for your army to be complete, then rush, and as soon as a revenge wave comes, having to do it all over again...

Plz add hotkey for speed,cause it really makes me mad bout pausing the game every level and make speed X3
Overall great game! 5/5

Loved the other epic wars. played 4 several times though. this one though... couldn't bring myself to finish once.
feels unfinished, hero is useless, items are color swaps of 3 stats, and units feel slow in the long maps

After a while, i started asking myself why so much yell about the heroes, and when i reached the extra stages i realized why, they end up been a handicap more than a useful unit... actually ordering a full charge and not telling the hero to fold back its suicide... so yeah, i agree that the heroes should be better units... and the items were a nice idea, but they are not very useful.

As for the art, I don't think it's either. It hasn't gotten better and it hasn't gotten worse either. Personally, the sprites just look bigger, the battlefield zoomed in or compacted more. Detail-wise they may seem better, maybe they are more detailed, but on first glance...looks the same to me. As a developer if you're going to make a #5 of a game entitled with "Epic" in it. You CANNOT lessen the amount of units especially when the previous game allowed more than twice as many units. That's not epic. One last thing is...I always feel like I'm constantly on the assault. In Epic War 4 I felt like it could be either way, if you didn't send your units you had them swarming over you if you took too long, especially during a boss battle and a hero unit was on the field. In EW5 I just feel like a constant assaulter. Having pressure would keep players on their toes. Literally since I started writing this comment, I've just left my arm sitting in one spot. For now...that is all.

I think the only one thing I'm sure of is that the music is a lot more epic. As for the gameplay I believe most of us feel as if there have been many improvements but at the same time many things that you have taken out or have not incorporated into this sequel that is questionable. I still have mixed feelings. For one the mini map which has already been addressed. I do like the new upgrade system however it feels lacking in someway that I haven't been able to pinpoint just yet. The system is interesting and different but there's just something missing that I can't quite put my finger on. Maybe another fan will say something about it. I'm on the second "continent" and so far it feels too easy. Maybe it's just me but the battles don't feel quite as epic. The previous game it felt more like you had to plan out your attack even though there were and still are only two movements, retreat and advance. Epic War 5 feels less...strategic?

Dude you completely downgraded epic war 3 and 4 still great but theres no minimap, smaller screen no retreat/forward ect. i think you rushed the game a little thats all, keep up the good work :)

Just one thing: 45 mana for a turret wich only does 50 damage per second... isnt too much?
Ye, it may "tank" ur troops. But if u want ur troops to be protected isnt it better a wall?

To me,Epic War 3 whas the max awesomeness reached,it slowly degraded from 4 to this...
The heroes aren't heroes anymore,our heroes once were the charging unit,capable of opening paths.Now,their just a stallwart tank unit.
The battles lack thay crowded sense they had,but then again.Maybe it's only me.

@ shaedo I used the 3 mages, the poison breathing dog guy, death and goblins, and kited my mages back so not 1 died the whole fight. the goblins stopped him moving, i used lvl 2 meteor with death and the poison guys got in a bit more damage, hes weak to magic so try mages, and dont use piercing damage because he resists it

I like the game, but it seems worse than the others in my opinion. I wont repeat what everyone else has said, but i agree. My only issue is the bosses being big forms of other enemies, even pixellated.

I would prefer to have the X3 speed button on screen without having to open the in game menu because I wish to go from x1 to x3 with only one click.

I'd like to see a little big more info on your units. Like whether they are long range, short range, or melee. Also, whether or not they can stun or hit multiple units.

Epic war series is great. Epic i must say. And i believe everybody love it. Including me. But maybe you can add some "sub games" based on epic war? Maybe it can be a turn based rpg. Hack and slash or anything else. Oh yea, my english is bad. ;)

Is there a possibility that when you are selecting unit by shortcut there are also spells displayed ?? Now only when you click unit there are spells visible.

I miss the old skills tree in Epic War 4 where is like a big circle and you get to choose which path you take while in Epic War 5 you HAVE to go one way and get the next thing even if you don't like that particular ability.

I just can't beat the Colossus. Once it starts advancing I cant seem to be able to hold it long enough to inflict lethal damage; not with walls, regenerating Golems, Death, Black dragon, White wolves; not with spamming small units at it; nothing! any one got any ideas? I'd appreciate someone sending me a message. All units upgraded.
