This is a great game. Yes there are bugs, yes it does crash. No you don't have to spend money. Updates are needed. Gamers online provide advice on playing. It is a wonderful community. It could do with new production lines and higher city levels. Please devs dont abandon your players. We support you by playing please support us by updating and upgrading

I love this game but 1. This game needs to load easier and faster, and 2. The game error, "This game cannot be reached," message keeps popping up when I try to load the game. Is this a glitch by any chance? Also a message about the game being under maintenance popped up on my screen after a recent game load attempt. Will you folks who made this game please fix it? I'm sure there are other people out there who love this game, and who are having similar problems and would love for this game to be fixed.

Fun game. Love the anno series, but has a lot of game issues that make it hard to play. I am constantly having to force stop the Game and reopen it. Now it runs so slow of freezes so much i am ubinstalling. I have spent hours waiting for the game to respond in the last 2 weeks. So moving on to a better developer. Their IT says they have no developments/improvements planned at this time.

I think this is very potential game.. I love the gameplay because its very fun and simple.. But, like the other say, this game has so many BUG.. So installed this game just wasting your time because it always lost connection from the server.. I recommend to developers to change this game to offline and fix some bug.. If the next update is coming and this game going better, I will give you 5 stars for sure..

It's an all round great game but after 1 day of playing it won't load. I left it for a while but it still doesn't work. My Internet and wifi are fine and every other electronic device in the house works. Please please please fix it or at very least tell me what's gone wrong

Generic setting, boring gameplay, where you need to spend most of the time waiting for stuff to happen or dish out cash. I'd suggest going for one of the other slightly more interesting generic building games instead. This has nothing to do with Anno imho. Also, rather buggy. Disappointed.

Can't play long enough to able to decide if the game is any good. I think I liked it but, now I can't even log in. I'd like make note of how many people have rated the game add not working and how the developer is not commenting our trying to fix the issue.

Do not start playing unless you are willing to spend real money on gems. You can't even reveal all of your original island without them. And you need access to resources in this hidden area in order to advance. Game get you hooked, then you're screwed because you can't get any further without spending cash. TOTAL SCAM!!!

The server keeps losing connection. I have to restart the app over and over and I still can't connect or stay connected to the game servers. It's sad cause I am a huge fan if the original game. This shouldn't happen with a top developer like Ubisoft.

by Y####:

There is an initial learning curve to understand all the conventions of building and placing the various pieces but, once that's done, you have fun with the game. I also have an issue with losing connection to the server but it doesn't happen too often. Graphics are very good. Tech support is good, they will work long and hard to solve any problems you have. All of my concerns have been solved thus far and I am finally enjoying the game.

Great game. Very detail oriented and fun to play for months. Unfortunately lots of bugs on loading the game. Many forced log outs, server sync errors and it generally takes 1-2 minutes until the game is fully loaded ready to play. No update since almost a year. Only 2 stars until this is addressed.

I have the same issues with crashes but reinstalled the app twice. I raised from 2 stars to 4 stars because the game is great fun and needs patience anyway. I do hope that the Dev is still working on improving these issues though.

Awesome game, addictive, love it..... When it works.... I've got a new phone with very little on it, I've re-installed the game twice and it still crashes every 10 minutes. which sucks because its a fun game and I want to play it.

The game is really god but when it reaches the account part it started bugging around and won't stop that it forced me to uninstall this game. Please fix this anomaly this is the fourth time I'm installing this game. (I need to see thus fixes fast)

I70%
by I####:

It's a great game but its full of bugs and not supported. I played the pc game many hours and days. The mobile game is just as fun. However the servers are really bad. They timeout, crash or are unreachable a few times a day. Switching between islands always fails too. Now that i started a 2nd city, the game constantly lags and stalls. I've spent money but I can no longer play. Don't waste your time until they release a major upgrade.

Its like rediscovering Anno1400 but the tutorial is not clear. It takes alot of guess work. I miss , eg, the ease of contol and visibility of the store contents. I still don't know how I managed to give milk to the visiting UN ship. I tapped SOMEWHERE and it happened!

Bought rubies few days ago.. yet to be delivered. Had ingame help till I told them I purchased rubies, now no even a reply ingame or customer support!! DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS APP!

P70%
by P####:

It scratches the ANNO itch very well. Not a cookie cutter city builder, plenty of freedom in how you design your city. My only complaint is the lack of cross play with desktop. I kind of regret getting started on mobile and may still give up and switch to pc.

This game looks good but isn't, it can crash way to much. Ubisoft just created this good ge, screwed it up with an update, and crapped on the customer by leaving it how it is now. If Ubisoft every touches it again, it's either it will make this game go off market. There is no other way this update will help the game with how crap it is now

by Y####:

A very clunky and unstable port of the browser game. Constantly loses connection to server. Unable to complete some quests because all functionality was ported over. Very disappointing extension of this once popular franchise.

I first tried this gane way back in 2010 when I still have a symbian phone. It was amazing. I accidentally found this on playstore and immediately installed it but I can't get past through through the loading screen. I'm stock in 53%. I tried to reinstalled it and installed it again but the same thing happens. I would like to give this a higher rating but what can I do? Unplayable.

L70%
by L####:

It's exciting game. But lots of issue, it took to long for game to loading and sometimes lost signal. Can't register "SECURE SAVE mission can't be complete". It bugs almost same for the PC version. Hope getting fixs for "LONG LOADING".

by Y####:

The game is fun, but it force closes on you 5 or 6 times is a row sometimes. Never had a game do this before. Very frustrating and hard to play because of this. Will not donate any more money until problem is fixed. Will update also when problem is fixed. New update, it's been 2 months and game play has been worse. The lag makes the game play impossible. And this is on full service WiFi. Waste of time here. Removing game from phone now.

The loading screen flickers. The tutorial tells you to build stuff (buildings/roads) but you have to place them "exactly" where it wants you to. Too controlling for my taste. The graphics were a bit fuzzy. This would have been OK in older games, but these days it just looks low quality.

They erased my game. Why do I have to register with you? I was playing my game just fine till now. What happened? They kick guest accounts from the server. Consider yourself warned. Write down guest player number. Or just do not install. The rumors of connection problems and long load times are TRUE. Hate this game. Build a stone Mason was a pain. This game is very frustrating. Builds have to be placed in a limited # of areas. The game makes you guess the whole way. Infuriating!

Since the last update, the game constantly disconnects! I can't even build any boat, because i keep getting an error! I have everything i need and when i press build boat, the game just jumps to the inventory and nothing happens, no boat, no nothing! Either you have a server problem or whatever, but i have paid for things in this game and either you make it work or i want my freaking money back!!! In the past 15 minutes i was disconnected 8 or 9 times!!! This is not fun! Do something about it!

During tutorial, don't use the pile of lumber bought for 49 gems until the quest tells you to do so. You'll be required to buy a new one if you do. This game does NOT record you using it earlier if you have already done so. My questline is now broken..

Editing & lowering star number. I like this game but 2 months of constant crashing, constant disconnecting, & still crashing everytime I try to register, chat or add friends(which is a main goal later) is annoying. After reading the rating list, I'm not the only one having this problem, and the updates haven't fixed a thing. I'm uninstalling this game. This is truly Ubisoft at it's worst.

D70%
by D####:

The game itself is fun, but not worth the connection issues it has. Takes nearly 5 minutes to load the game then it drops out all the time and I have to wait to reload it. Don't have this issue with any other online games

It's a great game. I played the pc game many hours and days. The mobile game is just as fun. However the servers are really bad. They timeout, crash or are unreachable a few times a day. Switching between islands always fails too. I have to use ShutApp between islands because the game freezes nearly every time. If you want to play, you need ShutApp. Ubisoft should be able to buy better servers. I have dozens of servers in France that perform better than this.

Po aktualizacji mnóstwo błędów , gra zwalnia wyłącza się lub zawiesza telefon, czat przestał działać . IF they repair bugs then i give one star more. But now this game is huge mistake

D70%
by D####:

I'm amazed that Ubisoft would allow this to continue (or to keep their name on it). Game constantly looses connection to server, game constantly sputters with lag so you can't accomplish anything. Most any button is mostly a miss if your try to use it and end up selecting things behind it. After last update, I can't even play the game as it just keeps trying to load something else and lags beyond reasonable.

X70%
by X####:

The game was slow but fun until last update on 10th March. Now it is unplayable. It is starting like 4 mins and then the ui responsiveness slows down to almost zero. Frequently looses server connection which causes restart. If you do not manage to do something about that, you're gonna lose lots of players and therefore income from in-app purchases.

This game would easily be one of my favorites but it is nearly impossible to play because I get discounts ever 15 minutes or less. I have reinstall, restarted, cleared the ram, and internal storage and contacted support.

The game is really fun, actually I've played all the PC versions of it, but on my smartphone it doesn't support the S Pen, just my fingers... it's uncomfortable, because I cannot see very well where I'm building

Don't spoil the Anno series name. It's okay even if you guys don't bring such titles from PC to Mobile but please don't design it in a horrible way!!!
