2024-11-22	Trevor Thackston	This is not a mobile-friendly game. Combat encounters you aren't supposed to idle are clearly designed for the PC version, and the useless combat interface on mobile makes many of them non-interactive, boring, and frustrating. Don't waste your time with this app version, because it was clearly an afterthought to the developers.
2024-08-24	Jarod B.	This game is fantastic, and has almost as much depth as Runescape itself. I am however currently encountering a bug that prevents me from dragging items that are in my bank, requiring me to use the 'move items' button which is much less ideal. I even tried reinstalling the app and clearing the app cache, neither fixed the problem.
2024-07-12	AJ Ciccone	Game works really well now, before it would crash constantly but seems like it's been fixed. Haven't experienced any crashes since downloading it again. Overall love this, an idle game worth the price, no microtransactions to constantly throw in the players face, well worth it DLCs that add a whole lot of content. My only "complaint" would be that I'm nowhere near doing any abyssal things but they seem to really clutter the screen. No way to hide that until it's triggered? Still 5 stars though.
2024-05-09	N E	I haven't played for a little while. However, when I got on today, I started to get all sorts of problems. My main was froze on farming, so I was forced to clear app cache. Now it's telling me that it's a demo version!? I lost all mod support because of it being a demo. The worst part is that it crashes every time I try to load in and makes me force load my characters (which doesn't work). Now I'm terrified that I've lost my chars. due to my alts icons being replaced with big red question marks.
2023-06-28	Keith Arwood	Edit: It is finally working again! Enjoying the new content. Keep up the good work. I was enjoying this game and now it crashes every time I try to load my saved game. I paid money for this and now it doesn't even work. I've cleared my cache even uninstalled and reinstalled and it just keeps crashing. I've even emailed and NO response. I would gladly change my review once it starts working again.
2023-04-16	Anon Ymous	The game WAS great. It's pretty near unplayable since the last update, both between the township overhaul (which now auto updates and keeps killing the villagers, I'm unable to get my township back to sustainable levels and I think I'm going to have to restart the entire save file and start from square one) and the fact that I have to clear the game cache every hour in order to get the game to launch properly. I'm about ready to uninstall it and never play again because I'm so frustrated.
2023-04-07	James	I have had the game for a long time but recently been playing it a lot. I really enjoy the game, but lately, it has had a habit of not saving progress when idle quite a bit of the time, which kinda makes it unplayable after a certain point. I would rate it higher but when you open the game after 10 hours away excited to see progress and get nothing, its pretty frustrating. I was also debating buying the expansion which now I am not.
2022-11-22	Alexander Brown	Since the recent updates the game played on my android is almost unplayable. Between the lag and more recently crashes likely caused by lag, it's in need of some bug fixing. Otherwise. Since day 1 and even now though I can't really play, I've bought the dlc and such because this is one of my favorite games, it's an excellent addition to mobile gaming. I truly hope the bugs get squashed soon, though the game isn't going anywhere so I can be patient.
2022-11-14	Chris James	I am a very harsh critic of games, and have played most idle games on the market. This one is easily the strongest. This is NOT a mobile freemium BS time-gated, pay-for-energy, pay-to-win game. It has exceptional depth, high strategy requirements to optimize but a low barrier to entry. If you like idle games, this is the mobile game you have been looking for. I've had no performance or stability issues here or on Steam- the UI is defiitely better there. Integration is seamless. Dev is awesome!
2022-10-18	Patrick Ollen	The app is great, literally my favorite. But they updated it today and now I have a hard time seeing the UI scale because of how tiny it is... Why did you guys make everything smaller? If you change how it looks at least give us an option to scale the UI - Sir old eyes. Ps: I love how in depth the game is and it makes me feel like I'm playing a non visual edition of runescspe that doesn't require me to walk everywhere. 10/10 , 0/10 for changing the scale of UI, YOU SHOULD HAVE kept it bigger.
