Age of Apes

The game itself has a lot of bells and whistles to make a person want to play, and make purchases…LOTS of purchases, in order to succeed. Fine. The company is a business, and exists to make money. I get it. What they don’t tell you is that the Game’s Developers fully intend to Rinse your City (account), and the cities of your friends, at the end of the strategic part of the game, when a Clan is formed, and your Clan achieves “planet supremacy.” The Game Developers fully intend to send players from other servers, whose power Greatly exceeds your Clan’s Power by a magnitude or more, let alone your individual power, for the SOLE Purpose of wiping out as many players from the game as possible. Think about it…you spend a couple of months of your time, and considerable financial resources, to become a dominant player on your Server. Then, the Game Developers send players with Super Power to the Server you’re playing on, for the purpose of wiping you out. If that’s your idea of fun, then by all means, waste your time and money…or better yet, just throw your money out of a window, and let the wind blow it where it may. Just so you know I’m not salty because my account was rinsed…it wasn’t. I’m a successful player. But, only 1-person with whom I started the game remains a player with me. All of the rest of my friends were completely rinsed of their resources and troops by players with a stupid amount of Power from other servers. How insulting to everyone who played the game.

So I love the game in a lot of areas I just see a lot of ways it could improve. First of all make the mutant lairs harder they are way to easy. Also a feature to queue into public matches would be nice. I enjoy the mini games but the actual kingdom part could use some revamping too it’s basically a copy paste rise of kingdoms so if you could add in some uniqueness while still keeping the entertaining mini games I think that would be a MASSIVE improvement. Make the mini games in the lairs more interesting it’s fun for the first couple of them but then it gets repetitive maybe add ranged weapons and or new attacks or maybe an entirely new combat system. Still I have to say LOVE the concept the stories great the cutscenes are great just fix the things I said and I think it could be massively improved.

Update - the devs and customer service are scammers. I have communicated my points directly with their in-game customer service. Customer service either parrots what their management tells them to or is a poor excuse for customer service. When I brought up a vip-level customer service they told me if I wanted that level of customer service I need to download and use other, unrelated apps. I stand by my original review and wish Apple would take them off the App Store and totally reimburse every player who has made any purchase in this game. Nobody should play this game, not even on a free-to-play manner. Original review: Do not play tap4fun games. The devs exploit players wanting to have fun, making it impossible to be competitive unless you pay a ton of money or play for several years. Recently, a bug was exploited that a few players discovered and took advantage of, making them significantly stronger than everybody else. Rather than giving back the game resources, troops, and other items used to recover from this, the developers sent some players a meaningless reward that only helped recover very little assets. The developers punish players when the developers create ingame mistakes, but also punish players when they allow other players to exploit their (developers) mistakes. No recourse or punishment was made against the players that cheated, they were allowed to receive rewards and continue to play as if nothing had happened.
