Not what they advertise….

The cool pull-pin puzzle games they advertise, or the walking shooting game they advertise, and even the fact that they say “Don’t you get tired of games that advertise one thing but the game is completely different?” is ridiculous because that is exactly what these people do!!! These are not the puzzles you play in the game. The pull pin ones look way more fun. You can never get a hold of customer service, the game lags and glitches in crucial battle times resulting in the player losing resources that are not paid back by the Evony makers, the maps don’t populate quick enough so many times you are looking at a blank field until the slow server can catch up, the app updates sometimes lock you out of your game, if another player is being aggressive toward another player or threatening other players evony does nothing to help and just tells the player to call the cops. So the game is so-so but the developers need to use some of all that money they make off of a so-called “free” game and put it back into the game for the customers. You can play for free but you will get no where fast. Most players pay around $25-$50 a month. Some spend thousands of dollars on this game just so they can rule the server. This game growth is about how much money you spend, not how skilled you are at managing your own city.

Does not value customer base

I’ve played Evony for over a year. This game has a PvP feature called Battlefield- Battle of Constantinople which becomes one of the primary competitive aspects of the game. Players spend thousands of dollars to try and be competitive. Unfortunately, for up and coming players trying to compete with mega coiners, the All Star battlefield gameplay experience is riddled with gameplay issues, lag, glitches, etc. I’ve been to multiple All Stars and after the Season 9 experience, I’ve decided to stop spending money and considering leaving the game. After attempting to work with their customer service, where I provided in game screenshots of issues I experienced which included being locked out of the game, unable to load back in, heal glitched just to name a few, they repeatedly send automated responses that won’t acknowledge the proof provided. Other players receive compensation for these issues and there seems to be no logical rationale to support who gets customer service and who doesn’t. I enjoyed the game for a while and I wished that the developer team would fix the issues and the customer service department made a real effort to preserve the satisfaction level of paying customers. Be careful with managing expectations of this game. It demands a lot of time and the return isn’t worth the investment when you’re getting screwed out of rewards.

I should have read the reviews first

Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced for a game. I should have read the reviews first before I spent my time and money on this game. Fun at first but something weird happened with my account. I spent some money in game to heal some troops to get my power level back up. When I logged in the next day my power dropped substantially with no reports of an attack on my keep. I thought it was weird but figured maybe I missed something? Maybe I didn’t bring my power back up to where I thought I did. So I spent some more money for resources to heal my troops again, this time bringing my power to over 1 billion. If you’ve played the game, you know that’s quite a bit. When I logged back in the next day (I only logged in to heal my troops and then I logged off for the day) my power level was back down under 1 billion. That’s when I realized something fishy was going on and I just spent a lot of money for those resources all for nothing. I contacted support and sent a screenshot of my power level and asked if they could somehow look back at my account activity and see what was going on…I haven’t heard from them since. They make plenty of money with this game so you would think their support team would be on top of something like this right? Wrong. They make plenty of money from this game so why help some random player who’s complaining about a glitch. Don’t waste your time or money and I hope you read these reviews before you download.

Game Experience

This game is truly nothing but an endless money pit. The developers are driven by greed, that offer a long glitchy game experience riddled with many goals that aren’t achievable unless you sink thousands of dollars into it. This game is the biggest scam going for gamers. The customer service is a complete joke. They are not friendly either. Bored people with endless amount of money feed these developers. All new content is monotonous. It’s the same old content with a new name to make money for these developers. It’s honestly nothing new and they make anything new hard to get unless you are willing to spend a ridiculous amount of money to get it. My advice to anyone curious about this game is that I would not waste your time or money on this game. This is a buyer beware game. You will not get anywhere on this game unless you are truly willing to invest serious money in it, which you will never get close to getting back even if you sell your account. If you got nothing better to do with your money except waste it without any sort of a return well then this is the game for you. The only absolutely only thing great about this game is the people you meet and become friends with. It’s an expensive glorified chat room. Plus you have to deal with the egos and arrogant players that do coin in the game who shame the way smaller keeps that are new to the game. It’s not a very fun game experience. Pass on this game. It will save you much frustration and shame.

This game is a fraud

Update 2/2/23: Customer Service continues to change its story and marginalize the losses caused by poor network services as well as any issue with the false advertisements. If I could give negative stars, I would. I want my money back! This game should be removed from the App Store. After a more than a year of playing and building and spending thousands of dollars, none of the puzzles you see advertised anywhere are actually in the game and network services are so bad, the game is completely unplayable at times (especially during battles). This results in losses to in-game assets which usually costs money and cannot be recovered due to customer support who seemed to be trained to lie and marginalize players. Random glitches and network lag also cause losses to in-game assets which you pay for, but cannot recover. Further, the developer is constantly producing ways to dilute the value of in-game assets by reducing free rewards and content that players thought they would always get before spending money. They also produce new premium content that outperforms old premium content many players spent money on and cannot be upgraded or redeemed (generals are the shining example). Some of the statements and nearly all of the images you see in the description are blatant fabrications and/or fabrications to get people to start playing and spending within their game. I can’t believe Apple would let this type of fraudulence continue in their app-store.

Game needs better customer service

I had been and still am having trouble just accessing the game. Now I’m in trouble of loosing everything I earned in this game is about to be destroyed over this weekend all because noone has gotten my messages or has chosen to ignore my problem which is about simply being able to access the game . It loads and the gets to the very end with just a tiny bit to go but instead just keeps saying it is loading for hours at a time. Because I can’t get in the game I can’t email or get on to send the ticket stating that I have a major problem. I have not had any way to access the game o be able to file a complaint. The only access I am here but not able to share that I am having a major issue because I cant access the game to complain because that place you go to share your complaint is also being blocked so I have had to ask other places to even be able to let those who fix the game issues know I have a major one. I have no access to anything any part of the game and it won’t allow me to file a complaint. This is the most stupid thing I have ever seen and if I could I would sue to get all my money back because I am starting to hate the game but a friend of mine filed a complaint for me we will see if I get anything I’ve lost back and be able to have access to any options within the game because the problem is the game will not give me any access. Sad garbage madness it deserves a negative star

Total fraud

The game does not give you the rewards points or the bonus points that you earn. They send you an automated response email whenever you contact them to tell them the problem. you sent them the screenshots, and they do not acknowledge what you sent. You get automated responses. They want you to buy over priced items that is a complete and absolute rip off. This is total false advertisement On the part of the game developers. You might be able to play the game for free, but you will never get to any point of winning anything .Does not matter How well you do or how many points you score , you do not get the rewards that you need to help you advance. This is completely intentional on the part of the developers. Don’t waste your time on this game. Because it is designed to not let you advance when you score the points needed to do so. The only way you’re going to get the points you earn, is if you buy something from them. And even then, according to some of the other reviews, you still do not get the points or rewards to advance you in the game. There’s no way I’m paying $100 to help my child advance on a video game. Total scam. I would not trust them with credit card numbers. This is the type of thing, where everybody’s credit cards gets hacked, everyone loses a ton of money during the online robbery , and the website will claim that they had nothing to do with it. Beware of these types of scam people.

Cash Grab

The game is free to play but definitely pay to win. I’ve been playing for about 5 years and the ONLY reason I don’t delete it is because I’ve been playing for 5 years. The game is an unbalanced cycle of powerful preying on the weak. Yes, you can grow spending little or no money but that requires you to join or form an alliance with the “whales.” The whales will dictate how the others will experience Evony. If a whale wants peace then your server will be peaceful but if that same whale chooses violence be prepared to have a miserable experience. There is no system in place to prevent lopsided gameplay. A player with billions of power/troops can and will destroy a player with a fraction of that power. Without an alliance to help you build or rebuild, you literally will have to wait years in real time unless you spend money. The ads are totally misleading and are supposedly in the game but after 5 years, I’ve yet to see even 1 that looks and plays as advertised. The game does promote teamwork because if you don’t use teamwork you will be quickly and repeatedly destroyed. If you want to socialize with random people from around the world then download this game. If you have disposable income and are looking for a way to dispose of it, download this game. If you’re looking for a rail shooting or puzzle game, look elsewhere. I regret having invested so much time that it’s difficult to walk away. Don’t make the same mistake and avoid this cash grab.

According to the latest data, there are approximately 3.32 billion active video gamers worldwide, with a significant portion playing on smartphones.
