Rise of the Kings Reviews

Customer service

TITAN 426

The customer service on this game is terrible. People spend thousands of dollars and these people don’t care at all about their players. They setup events like the first person who reached 12M power would get a title and random things. When you contact the developer to get the title they never gave it. Closed the request without any confirmation on this. They don’t try to help their players at all. They recently had a glitch in the recent update and hundreds of players lossed resources troops and power that were not restored during the dragon update. When they contacted customer service they asked for proof. How would they know they need proof when an update comes? What a joke the management of this game is.

Scam and pay to win.

Dreldan

*update* Just wanted to update my review now that time has passed, everything is the same and it’s even worse than before. There was a time when hard work and commitment would be rewarded in this game, now it’s all about the money. Ingame GM’s won’t even give you the time of day if you don’t spend. *update* This game has completely changed from what it used to be. Every single decision the developer makes is to increase their profits. Their packs are a scam and this game is 100% pay to win. Don’t think for a minute you might get lucky. They have in app purchases that give you a sliver of a chance of getting something great. It all caters to the people willing to spend thousands of dollars on this game (there are people who do and you stand no chance against them). They have all the things in the game to get you hooked and then you realize later on how screwed You really are if you aren’t willing to spend hundreds of dollars a month. Their support staff is awful. Automatic canned responses, most the time they don’t even understand what you’re saying and don’t even answer your question or concerns. It’s as if they don’t even play the game themselves.

This game is ONLY for spenders

KingKEVINN

I’ve played this game over 4 years now. It has gone from good to worse, to now it’s ONLY FOR SPENDERS. Even us (me) spenders are fed up and about to quit. So, unless they change something soon and stop with their greed... we suggest you don’t download and save your time and money that they take WAY too much of. Ask around kingdoms if you do join and you’ll see what I say is true. ROK has gone way downhill because of the greed.

Expensive game

Fernandez1995

Very poor how this game have turn , I have been playing this game since k24 now a merge kingdom and it’s so sad how everything changed in just a couple of months. Everything so expensive now , And it’s sad how you can’t merge weak kingdoms no more, I’m the the only strong one from my kingdom and the only spender as well . but to he honest it’s just saw how the game have turned. And I’m so ready to stop spending for a game that only cares about the money and not how players feel.

Money Pitt

Wicked Saphfire

This game is a war/strategy game on how to get more money out of every player before they quit. It’s is unbelievable how many new events that are structured around spending money to lvl up your top heroes or the new dragon. If not you can’t compete with the people who do!

Money hungry

boy cot no more spend

This game was fun but it is all about money now it cost hundreds of dollars to even try to get hero and the dragon is worse game is totally about money

Constantly chasing the dragon...

babbleDeTruth

I’ve played this game since June 2017...it was fun at the beginning then it got to the point where it takes more than 5k per week to stay competitive or you become obsolete in a couple week. 1) New events = $$$$$ and gives horrible rewards. (Rewards that could easily be farmed for or by killing monsters.) 2) New upgrades (heroes/dragons/castle level) = $$$$$ When you think you’ve reached the dragon, you realize that it’s been moved further away and the chase starts again. There’s always new events to force players to spend and use up their rss/materials before the next one to force players to spend. Want to play??? Make sure you got 5k to throw out the window every week. Or be ready to live in a bubble and farm away cuz you will never see the dragon with out spending.

Greedy Game

Dowen94

Over the years this game has gone from one of the best, to one of the worst. And that’s coming from someone who has spent over $15k in all my years. It’s impossible for someone like me to even keep up anymore, I can 100% see why people are dropping out left and right. Not worth it spending thousands on heroes just to be outspent the next event and suddenly have a worthless castle. I won’t be spending a dime until something is done to level the playing field for everyone, INCLUDING the non spenders in any of my castles in k32, k422, and k461. -Boycott

Fix your game

Amberito78

This game was a really good game until greed took over. You can’t even help dead kingdoms. You put new hero’s out that cost non stop. You make the events impossible for non spenders and even this new candies events was pushed towards spending. Ruins was great but now i feel when it comes back it will be weaker prizes and more spending and if so you will lose me as a player. It’s the only thing keeping me playing. We need our whole team to be able to play. One or two mega spenders do not win battles alone. Fix you damned game and quit updating every other weak for new hero’s and spending and fix the things that help us all to be great players. Took 4/5 years lost for new simple lord levels and equipment levels. There you couldn’t help yourselves either and has to make it expensive because YOU took so long to update them.

The game needs to slow down with the pricy updates

ROK_Player

I like this game and have spent a lot to develop my castle and my kingdom. But recently too many updates that cost 2-3K each to max. This put a lot of burden on me even if I am considered one of the mega spenders. I strongly advice the ROK team to slow down with their upgrades and take care of smaller players because if they quit we will no longer find someone to fight and most kingdoms will go to oblivion. As a quick fix 1. You need to merge the kingdoms which didn’t make it to the top 128 tournament, no need to wait. 2. Release not expensive, easy to get upgrades that can help small players to defend their castles (castles attack is not a challenge anymore). 3. Slow down on dragons and other strategic heroes because the gap is huge between spenders and non spenders already and no need to add more to it. 4. Add more free events that could bridge some of the gaps between mega, medium and non spenders. I hope ROK team will respond to players demands before everyone quits.
