it's definitely one of my favorite games and I seem to always have trouble trying to stop playing it other than that it won't let me open the full map when I get close it will kick me off the game and then everytime I try to play after that it won't load up it starts to then when the load bar reaches 100% it kicks me out again does it everytime so far but I still enjoy it while it let's me play

The game play is ok but it's diamond hungry and energy draining you can only buy land with money and diamonds, you can upgrade buildings to a point and after a certain level you have to spend....yep, you've guessed it, diamonds . You have an option to watch ten adverts of games you'd never play just for one diamond. I'm going to have to uninstall the game as the progress is too slow and has little satisfaction for me.

Wonderful, I finished the old version of this game twice a long time ago and loved it. Was happy to rediscover it and was not dissapointed. Everything as expected: Take the worst game mechanics and add them. Slap a predatory in app purchase system on top. Horrible tutorial. Social Media tie in and so on and so on... It's a textbook example on how to take the fun out of a great game. 1 star for destroying something fun and entertaining.
