Castle Story™

Is it irritating at times? Sure. Does it have glitches? It does. Does it sometimes make unreasonable demands? Yeah, probably to get money out of players. I still play it compulsively. I’m quite proud of my kingdom and its Flying Steampunk Raccoon. This is an energy-based Castle Building/Adventure Game. Your character, who shall be referred to by everyone as “Ruler,” no matter what you name them, awakens in the Glimmering Forest and encounters a melodramatic antagonist, Baron Pfeffernot. The Ruler’s goal is to build their kingdom while uncovering their mysterious past. They make friends with other characters, such as Ivy the Potion-maker and Old Thomas the Scholar, through expanding the Kingdom and completing quests. Many of the recent complaints deal with timed optional side-quests. These *are* becoming difficult to compete for free. The last one involved using great quantities of a rare item (gold nuggets) to win the “adventuring prize” associated with the side quest. It’s still an enjoyable game, and you can play it around kids without any concerns over content. And there’s a Flying Steampunk Raccoon.

I like the game a lot but there should give more energy to play..not where you have to earn the energy or buy it....and I don’t like the tent you can take that away....to me it’s useless..I will not buy cabbages to get prizes.....also when I have purchased gems there have been a couple times that gems have gone missing and I have contacted support about it and they say I used it to example 80 gems for one gold nugget I WOULD NEVER SPEND 80gems on one piece...But I felt it was a waste of my time to argue with them so I let it go.....I also lost a huge amount of coins which I have no idea what happened to them...I had $79,400 when I went to bed that night and when I went into the game the next day I only had $23,400 and I have no idea what happened to my coins....Things like this are really FRUSTRATING...my main issue though is the energy they should give more energy and I have bought a couple things that will help with energy but it takes time......I feel like I sit and wait for my energy to replenish most of the day they should give 100 energy at a time so you feel like you are getting somewhere in the game..ESPECIALLY when you have things popping up and you have to battle them that use your energy and all you get back in return is maybe 2-3 energy...

I've been playing this game a very loooong time (like 6yrs!!!) it used to be fun NOT anymore! You will NEVER have enough energy to collect all your items or complete quests! It's not like ppl have loads of time to play these games 24/7 (which you would have to be on this one all day every day to complete anything); So NEVER EVER having enough energy to collect all my animals, crops, flowers, buildings, fight monsters, grow aaand then cut down trees, crush rocks, make products (and collect them), upgrade buildings, advance the story, and then complete the new quests with even more unattainable requirements with unrealistic time limits, is absolutely completely FRUSTRATING IRRITATING AND AGGRAVATING!!! 😤😡 I'm at level 50 (top level u can get and top out at only 40 energy) and can't even finish these quests, can't even imagine if you were a new player. DO NOT pay for energy or gems the cost is outrageous and still not even worth it (won’t get you any further or closer to completing quests)! Let alone the gems it costs to get more energy in the store is absolutely ridiculous! Also, take into account, that I have 22 Alicorns and my 2 schools (completely upgraded) for extra energy and I still NEVER EVER EVER EVER have enough to accomplish what I need!! Ugh & Grrrrr, all the time! 😡😤😡😤😡 I'll change my rating when the developers decide to FINALLY make things more reasonable and attainable.

I’ve played this game for over 5 years. It was better when it first started. Now the challenges they provide are very difficult. Especially for newer players but even for me. The only thing you are able to do in your kingdom during challenges are the necessary things for trying to meet it and nothing else. They have also become lengthy taking too long to complete. And as soon as one challenge ends, they start another. Some players were lucky enough to win a building some time ago that allows them to make alicorns which provide more energy. So these players have an advantage over others. This is game is no different than others in that they try really hard to get you to buy things. I don’t care for the tent. In 5 years I have won 1 item. I won’t buy cabbages. They have where you can watch a video and earn a prize. It shows two of the possible prizes and the 3rd has a ? Mark. One prize it sometimes shows is an alicorn but I have never been given one. I think because they want you to buy them. But those people who earned that building don’t buy them. They get to make them and many of my neighbors have several. I like the graphics and the theme/storyline of the game.

They don’t give you enough energy to complete things on time. Now most of these games are designed to either take your money or time and that’s fine if goals are attainable. This game does not give you enough energy to complete your daily routines let alone the goals they set for you. It maxes out at 40 energies and that is not enough to do anything of real significance. Make the game become monotonous and boring and down right frustrating. I do not recommend game there are others out there which are much funnier and don’t require so much of your time d dedication. It also gets worse the more you level up and then the leveling up becomes much harder, meaning longer and longer. It is almost unreasonable the expectations they have for expansions and goals, I guess they are hoping for someone to invest money which is a no go for me on any of these types of games. But this one for sure is a pure waste of time in my opinion. Keep looking and don’t invest time in this game. Their “monsters” which you have to defeat also pop up way too much and force you to defeat them and waste even more energy before you can get back on task. Grrrrrr. What a waste of time this game was.
