Fun and imaginative even with a few flaws – God Kings Review

When God Kings launched I tried it out and immediately got hooked. It is a refreshing take on a tired genre And that’s why I still play today. The game is solid I haven’t noticed any major bugs are crashes except having one of my alliance members have their God taken while under a shield. However the game is broken around one fundamental flaw. If you’re a top alliance and you surround the highest resource nodes, you can slowly strangle out the alliances is under you by limiting how far they can advance I giving them only the level ones and two for resource gathering. I don’t know if the resource node are distributed by a random number generator or they’re specifically put towards the middle of the realm, but there needs to be better disbursement of those resources. I noticed there’s only one realm right now and I could be for play testing balancing and other issues. But having multiple rounds would definitely help spread out players and allow for better experience. Additionally, the developers need to increase the timer on collecting gifts to 12 hours. I understand 24 hours is a bit much, but if you work, go to school, or have any life outside of playing the game you’re going to miss a lot of your gifts. I came home from work to find 24 of 32 gifts expired. Also, it would be nice to have a collect all button for the gifts. Sometimes I have an excess of 100 gifts, thanks alliance mates, and opening each one is a little bit of a pain. I would also like to see a better distribution of guardian levels to hunt. In trying to get my guardian to level III I can barely find guardians to hide that would give me the materials I need. If guardians are relegated to certain parts of the map then there needs to be a cleaner way of doing that and mixing the levels up a little better than they are. Lastly, while I love the dungeon running aspect of the game, It would be nice to have an extra award for totally clearing out dungeons. My alliance maids and I spend time and thoroughly cleaning out dungeons and it just would be a little extra pat on the back to get some guardian materials or even resources for totally clearing out the dungeons. Guardian kings is a great game. It’s worth the time to play. However I believe in making a few tweaks suggested the developers can add longevity to the game in hopes of retaining players and deepening the player experience.
