I'm not much of a fan of pixel art games but I have found the writing so engaging I don't care about the pixel art aesthetics. I almost never read mobile in-game text as it's typically shallow, poorly written, and/or horribly grammatically incorrect. But the writing is down-to-earth, clever, and witty. The gameplay mechanics seem deep and varied. I greatly appreciate this game and the effort put into it.

H70%
by H####:

Attacking takes way too many clicks. You have to select Action > Attack > Select Target > Confirm > Done Turn (if not moved). This gets dull fast. I would highly suggest you make it so a double tap on an enemy automatically targets it and attacks, and add an option to end your characters turn after attacking.

C70%

Frequent lagging & unresponsive, I can take that. BUT as I progressed throughout the game, it stopped working. I suggest you minimize some features and maximize more on performance: *remove the other slots *add cloud storage

I'm enjoying the game so far, but I have encountered a bit of an issue. Any time my phone goes on standby, or I switch to another app, when I go back to the game it's all bugged. The buttons suddenly have glitchy text and patterns and also the same with the resource counters. Any type of text is glitched. I then have to close the app and reload. I run it on a Samsung S6 with updated software, just throwing that in as info to help. Don't know what else I can do to help.

N70%
by N####:

An ok blend of (very)basic town building and turn based grid combat. Unfortunately the game is only half finished. Combat is unnecessarily long winded and complicated. Although interesting the first few times, it quickly becomes repetitive and boring, the auto fight mechanics are woeful. Sailing is also surprisingly bland for a pirate game, little more than a slow way of moving around. Worse is the constant crashes, freezes and lag. Could have been a great little game.

Expected a good game from you guys sincce i enjoyed the colonization conquest, but multiple issues just make it look like a bad piece of work 1. What's the deal with fixed main character's gender? Why cant i play as a male? 2. Melee damage of main character is way too low, to the point of pathetic-ness. 3. Bug where the Images are superimposed like the playing screen and the loading screen at the same time. Hope u guys will look in to it and make it better

Pliz make potion available earlier and cheaper, make more challenging boss enemies and drop more pwrful items, repeatedly and money building actually brings in money

Q70%
by Q####:

From bug fixes to real improvement. The bugs I' ve found, in this first 30 min, are not only game crashes but the lack in displaying of utmost important info, from the buildings upgrade requirements to the cost of expeditions. To the improvements, combat, it's a pain to click 30 times each char. If I choose to attack the target should already be automatically selected so I just needed to confirm to execute. The production buildings should display a visual effect once they finish producing(+resources).

Lots of bug and always crashing especially on missions and can you make a choice there of what our character will like the gender

I liked the game, there is customisable bits and lots to do - pretty linear you go from A to B to C to D - and changing ships every so often was a pain. But still 4* as i had fun playing it! Would recommend this game!

After a battle a stupid add popped up. I accidentally clicked it and was taken off the game. This caused me to crash and lose a weapon, 2k gold, and many battles worth of supplies. So dumb.

T70%
by T####:

The game looks like a lot of fun but I can't continue because it's too laggy for my crappy phone. Game play is a little too complicated for me...

by U####:

After alot of lags and crashes I've finished whole story, it took me nearly 1 week. I enjoyed playing it but now i think its boring restarting again and again the same story just to play the same game. Thing that would be interesting in games like this is Online Gaming Mode, isnt giving the game Online fun better than Offline Limited Story? Anyways, nice job, i like ur Devs Ideas

Very linear. Would benefit from more open - worldness. **game crashes/freezes when harpoon unit pulls sea monster onto land. Active buttons glitch (become unreadable script) if device is locked then opened while game is operating.

I dont know if its a good way of putting on pirate game. Pirates and building stuffs on your island? I dont buy that much of the thought tho. I think raiding their island and seize their wealth over will be more of the pirates stuff. One thing that i superbly regret of buying it, BUGS. Theyre all over the places and getting more and more annoying as the island gets busier on business. I honestly hate the buggy performance

Game play is ok although turn based fights are a little slow...The biggest issue though is the amount it crashes, it was ok at first but is now unplayable. Lots of potential so ill try again after next update

The dialogue is fantastic. Developer is active and wants to earn our $. If you'll pay $5 for Starbucks you can pay $4 for a solid game

All fixed on 2nd island before you go for ship design do the 2 explore battles first, that seemed to be the way to get around this error for me.

I'm enjoying the game! although the self aware dialogue is rather overwrought. Still early in game and in refund state, and i've had two UI freezing issues on my samsung Note 3. However i'm enjoying the game so much i'll be keeping it. Update! UI freezes mostly fixed! 5 stars now
