Ark of War - AOW for Android
took me a minute to figure out how this game takes your money .. I figured it out .. if your a weaker player say lvl 10 with a power of 140k and a lvl 12 attacks you.. you have no chance to defend your self unless you buy a shield with gold.. aka real money.. now you can earn it by investing BUT you don't get as much as if you buy it hence pay to win... or you can keep getting attacked and not get anywhere... which is B.S. fix the higher attack players attacking the lower ones and I'll rate it better... I don't have the time to sit on this game 24/7
Unless you are prepared to sink $100 to $200 on this, don't waste your time. It's pure play to win and unless you spend that much *per world* you'll just get beat up on. There's some attempt to balance things, but they are woefully inadequate. It'll be just frustrating within a week.
The game is fun. And the players are good. Just dont ever buy anything as the game has some built in bugs for taking your in game gold and not giving you what you paid for. Support answer is "sorry no refinds" they won't fix whats broken but add new ways to steal your purchased gold. Dont care how good the game is. If the suport and developers are dirty.ghry got to be called out on it
Love the animation. Game play is fun. Can be frustrating with the pvp some times. This game is definitely geared to get you to spend money and isn't afraid to show it. But over all it's a fun game. Get yourself a guild and it can be a good time waster.
Don't listen to dev reply. It's not about balance. It's about greed. You can play freely for and get about 1000 leadership (the most important thing in game), by collecting about 40 leadership per real world DAY. Then you see a wallet warrior with 10.000 leadership steamroll you into oblivion. Good day
Do not download this game!!!! Seriously, this game is heavily pay to play, the Chinese dominate every world in this game and will constantly attack you. I kept starting over on different worlds just to get away from them but they are everywhere and will just beat you down. You can not upgrade anything cause of the constant attacks. The only way to stop it is to buy shields, which will cost you a ton of money just to maintain. Do not download!!!
This game is for rich people only. You need more money to spent this game. If you guys don't have $$ so don't play this game. I already spent about $150 and I can't beat other players because in my server the chinese guild is overwhelming with their money.
Don't play this game unless you're prepared to spend hundreds of dollars. You will get attacked over and over, unable to advance until you buy shields. Just not worth the time wanted.
This issue with cheaters has gone on long enough. We have all asked you to deal with this problem with people using Alternate Accounts to cheat, but you have done nothing. Even though you have sent others, and myself emails saying you have. I still see these cheaters active and online now. You have allowed this game to become Unfair and Unethical. This game has become Unplayable for those who do not cheat or have hundreds of dollars to just spend for nothing. After a year off and you have done nothing to change.
Baits you in with fairly easy progression in early stages. Then makes it almost impossible to progress without spending cash everyweek. Also claims to be a strategy game however the best strategy in this games comes from spending more than others. Also if you have legitimate complaints the help center never seems to provide help or in game compensation for your troubles and will deny any fault of their own. Dont get sucked in not worth the cash or trouble. Plenty of better games out there.
I dont recommend this game if u are expecting free features. Servers full of wallet bragging players, and alternate accounts, U will find urself fighting against the same player with 5 or more different arks, the developers barely answer to true concerns, and unless u are willing to spend over $500 u could achieve something until another wallet warrior beats u with his real money. 2 stars for trying
It has a good concept and graphics, but suffers from the same drawbacks as most war games. More powerful players farm smaller players with impunity. This keeps the smaller players from advancing. They try to counter this by giving a long beginning shield that drops when you reach level 7.
The mechanics of this game are fine but the PvP is unbalanced and completely pay to win. I started the game and began enjoying at first, but once my shield expired I became cannon fodder. The map was basically divided between two powerful clans that constantly attacked lower tiered players and taking their resources. Without paying $$ you will struggle to get past the lower tiers and the game quickly becomes frustrating. I don't recommend it unless your a whale with your credit card ready.
Avoid! On first day I bought some starter pack only to find on other day that I was raided by high level player who took me resources I payed for! And killed my soldiers, so I cannot defend and now anyone can immediately steal what I earn.
BOYCOTT THIS GAME APP ! short story : servers are biased in towards Chinese & server is against non Chinese. support services extremely bad. Fraudulent purchase activity in the app. You do not get what you pay for when you make purchases. Chinese get cheaper gold then non Chinese. There is proof to support this. You get no help from support. Do NOT spend money in app. Recommend NOT installing this fraud filled app since the developer does not provide what is stated. BOYCOTT THIS APP ! I sent support ticket in & support refuses to act. I have spent 3 months talking to support with no action from support
This game Ark of Waris excitingand intense and very addicting game! the 1st time you play u either love it instantly or hate it, I ❤it.. try it out you will see 4 yourself!
It was a pay to win strategy of gaming. Constant attack and resources being stolen, even though I played daily, results in heavily stunted growth and loss of enjoyment. I do not recommend this game.
The game is pretty fun, but it is definitely a pay-to-win. If you're not willing to invest some money you're pretty much just going to get crushed. Round $25 to $50 will give you a foot in the door, but if you're looking to really be Top Dog in your server be prepared for about $250.
Very unfair prices for different countries. Chinese have a huge money advantage thats the only reason they are on top. If everyone would get the same value it would be different. Apart form that.. Amazing game! Yes you MUST spend like at least 25-30$ but TOTALLY worth it. Recommend it to all. As an advice on my side, I would suggest, let's say I have 1 mln of each resource and get attacked. Let the person who takes the loot have his loot but take away form my real resources only 5%. And put an automatic shield for free for 3 hours if ark durability is 0. This will help balancing a lot.
This game is a joke. It is heavily biased toward the Chinese players and they destroy you before you even have a chance. I actually sank money into this rip-off and I still couldn't compete. If you can watch your back every few minutes, then you might do well... That and spend a few hundred bucks. Don't waste your time installing.... You will be highly pissed off after the first day.
It is all fun and games until an individual, who you can't hurt, or a guild, who is way too advanced for you, wants to just PAY, to destroy all you have and keep you from playing. Games was billed as not a pay to win and that is exactly what it is.
AVOID!!! DONT BE FOOLED BY THE TRAILER or the fake 5 star reviews that say "great game". AVOID this pay to win game. All aspects of gameplay require lengthy upgrades. Battle graphics are sub-par old school RPG style where opponents line up and take GIF like shots at each other.
This is the most awesome strategic war game ever. The map is always changing because you can move your whole guild at the same time. I am so looking forward to getting deep into the fray.
Absolutely impossible to advance without money after lvl 11 Ark , you will be a farm even after 500 dollars. Warning, you will have a false sense of power for about a week. I feel scammed.
Not to easy to navigate. Kinda of similar to Lords Mobile. Have a hard time figuring out what to do, other then leveling up, its a bit difficult to figure out the game.
I'm not say this game bad,I join the guild and good people but just one damn ship own all of us with pay to win he just one level above than us but the equipment more better (purple equipment already?)well f@k me
More you spend $$$ the better you will be. Sever merges all the time so you get stuck with even bigger guys. No balancing players with merges.
Seriously may be the worst game ever. Just lame. Zero effort by the developer. The gameplay is absolute garbage.
Got way way to many things not associated with actual playing the game offer to sell you stuff before you get into the game how do I know I want to buy something if I haven't actually played the game
The gameplay is not fun, since it's restricted to picking upgrades, check-ins, and telling units where to go - not what to do or how to do it. This game's graphics and world setup are well done, but those two things are greatly overshadowed by the gameplay being as low-interaction as a text-based game. There is also insufficient information at several upgrade screens, failing to explain the effects. If the gameplay could be revised to include turn-based strategy or even merely choices for unit behaviors with preset teams, this game would be much more interesting.
Don't trust non of this fake reviews, this game blows. Boring as hell, and all people do is tile hit you. Waste!
Played the game had fun really fast progression for the first ten levels then everything takes a million resources that you can't get because you are always getting attacked literally as soon as my shield dropped a level 115 guy was coming to kill me you could spend money but not spending my money on a game like this
It so boring and nothing to do the combat is so bad it not even compat so stupid it oning it get on my nerves just don't I mean DON'T f**king installed it it crapy ok so this is your worning and pirate guy DON'T you dare try to say your working on it you lied and your advertisemrnts is F**king click bate ok.
The game is very well made but it would be better if you could up grade a number of thing in stead of one at a time it would be better
ALOT base upgrading and unit building.. Didn't see of the image from preview except the upgrade overview... Dont bother unless you like micro management of base upgrades
Great game even if its you basic gather, grow and fight game. You can play for a long time until the pay to win aspect kicks in at higher levels.
PAY TO WIN! Which is fine for developer's to get some income, BUT, the paid for currency is super cheap for other countries, dirt cheap in china. It creates a huge disparity in power for american players. Even those who pay as I did. So don't play if your American. It wont ever be rewarding.
Broken. Every time I'd log off I would be attacked. Even though the storeroom was suppose to protect resources, it never would. All my troops would be wiped out every time I lost whether they fought in the battle or not so I could never build up my army.
I am disappointed. Level 18 players attacking level 11 players... You can't even rebuild your army because you'll loose it again. It should be an interdiction for attacking lower level players unless one level below and any level higher than attacker. Edit: How can I play this game if I let my phone 1 hour and when I come back i find everything destroyed, no resources, no army, nothing. High level people don't farm resources on tiles, they farm players... And asking guild for help is not an option because they are in the same situation. This need to be changed because little players have no advantages and bigger ones are have everything.

You are nothing if you dont pay to play. Even the top guild on the server cant protect you as youre raided constantly by players who pay their way up. Pay to play is the dumbest thing ever. How can anyone truly enjoy it.
