Well, the game fits the end of kongregate as we loved it. For this I will break my rule not to get points by rating games. It doesn't matter any longer, so who cares. 5/5 just because the end of kongregate sucks.
That was intense. Didn't have such an intense game experience for a very long time. No wonder it's on the "Best of 2017" quest. Should be in "the very best of Kongregate" if such a thing existed. I don't know why this only got a 4.0 Rating while some crap generic f2p/mmo/cash-grab or even some idle games got higher. It has some weaknesses, of Course, but everybody who Plays this actually has to see the very huge amout of work and love put into this.
Something was different when I started the game today. And then I realised: The text was shown on german. Well, sort off. Dear Devs: If you spent money for this translation, insist on a refund. A three years old could have done better. If you didn't pay any money for the translation: Never use whom or whatever did the translation for you ever again. Really. I'd say even google translate could do better. If I were sure you didn't use google translate, that is.
Thank you for your opinion about our translation. We need to improve it for sure. Even the community want help in this, so for sure on future will be great. For now, as a temporary solution is to change the Kong site to English, then the game turns into the English location
There has been a lot of critique about P2W games getting badges on kongregate, so I won't waste my time on that. My main problem is a different one: I've now invested more then 3 days on that game with over 6 hours of time actively playing (but not a single kred) and I'm still far from the "medium" badge. In fact I have 25 of the necessary 40 stars by now. The missions are getting harder, so I think I am at most halfway through. Come on, Greg. I've invested far less time for impossible badges before. Why is this just a medium badge? Even on P2W MMOs there have been hard badges that you could do in far less time.
Wait. He believes this person only to be the reflection of a criminal only based on the fact that he has his heart on the righthand side? Many people do...
Wait. You can now upgrade every Disciple to level 25 without evolving it, even uncommon or common disciples? So what's the point of evolving now? The bonus? But the bonus gets bigger the higher level the card used for evolving was, right? So shortly I'll have to throw my Full Agrestes away because I already evolved it with lvl 10/15/20 Agrestes and soon there'll be some evolved with 25/25/25?
Unlocking the barriers that prevented people from progressing will hopefully lead to a healthier community of people that enjoy the game more and don't get frustrated with progression walls. It's all good for the game... plus your Argestes is not useless, just keep it and max it out, it'll still have the max stats like all the other Argestes.
To all those Players with serious lag problems: The game seems to run smoothly on the first runs for me but got increasingly laggy. If you don't like refreshing because you always loose your chat-log, there is a greasemonkey-script called Reload 4 kong witch allows you to refresh the game without refreshing the whole page. Doing so every few runs is still tedious, but allows a somewhat fluid gameplay.
I got disconnected from server while the intro was running. It couldn't reconnect because "Username and Password didn't match"... Um, ok. I refreshed the page. It disconnected while the intro was running, again. Reconnecting didn't work again. Refreshed. I finally got to the beginning of the tutorial. It disconnected. Think what? reconnecting didn't work. I refreshed. Got to the middle of the tutorial. It disconnected. Argh. I refreshed. Managed to reach Roland, the Paladin. It disconnected. I refresehd. Managed to finish the tutorial. It disconnected.
Nobody can say I didn't try. But this is it, at least for now. I won't play this game again until some mayor bugs got fixed. And I am a badge-hunter, I don't give up on a badged game easily. But this was too much.
@sidadi2008: The alien hunters do nothing at all. They stand around nearly invisible and disappear if you click on them. If you find all three (hint: one per jungle level, see top comments), you'll get an achievment, but they are just an easter egg.
Guys, the game IS challenging, but it's not too hard. I've now done every 10 levels that exist so far (although level 10 WAS a pain) and Boss-Mode for the first 8 stages.
In fact I like the difficulty level because most games nowadays are simply way too easy.
And of course the game needs some polishing, yes. But many hyped games would need that, too.
Including the goat problem is really nerdy, isn't it? That's maybe the only reason why it was added. Well, as long as everybody who is able to do some minor equations or knows the problem from somewhere recieves benefits, it's ok for me. ^^
the monty hall problem doesn't guarantee anything because it isn't really a "solvable" problem, knowing about it just gives you a higher probability of getting a reward. you can totally just decline the challenge and walk away with zero risk/reward.
"Oh, wait there was a problem. Refresh." Midway through the dungeon. Once? no! Twice? no! This has happened so many times now... ANd after refreshing it loads for ever. Ever heard of bug-fixing? I think you want to earn money with this game (at least the permanent ads in game suggest so)? Why the hell should anyone spend money on a game that crashes every so and so minutes?
