Great game. Unfortunately my gane has been erased twice because of an update. I had over 100 in game days of progress bith times & have to start from the very beginning because I had my phone on the charger. Please fix this issue! It is very discouraging after putting so much work only to come back to the game and have to start all over from the first chapter.
Just curious what the updates entail and if any extra actions are being added if they make sense or if we might see some extra classes or special races. Like maybe a Troll hero lol
Life of a Wizard, I think – which was also the first CS game to use achievements, before that was integrated into the language. I love Paradox Factor even more, but LotW was terrific fun and pushed the envelope in more widely influential ways.
I just want to make sure before the sale ends. There are no ROs in this game, correct? I’ve always enjoyed Mike Walter’s books, especially the ROs he writes. Unfortunately though, I don’t like reading books that don’t have ROs.
Battles kind of knock the wind out of me. You can have numerical, quality and power ratings above the enemy and still lose half your army then have to start all over makes warfare or just being raided a pain constantly starting from scratch
Found a slight problem. I can’t advance in quest because I didn’t meet the leader of the mountains and I already wiped them out making doing so impossible (I think)
I know a lot of people are upset about the updates wiping their games, but I have been waiting until the update next comes to start again. Is it being held so people dont lose the saved games or was it sneaky updated?
