    Addictive

    This game is so addictive. I'm loving it. Timers could be shorter ...

    I think piety is just a resource like the others, it's used for some technology, knights, and dragons, I think constructing the Wonder uses it too.
    Corpses make workers sick, and sick workers don't work. It seems to be farmers that get sick first. Graves are how you dispose of the corpses.

    The 6 day countdown is for the next conquest.

    Come on guys, you really need to step up your game! I started CivCrafter yesterday, I've made a clan, and reached #2 on the leaderboard! I'm a one man team... Really...

    Ok, a couple of days later playing this game. I still enjoy playing it a lot. I really like how lots of the things you do are tied together. You need one thing done but in order to do it you have prerequisites. It spiderwebs out and there are also instances where you need and abundance of one thing so that it don't deplete too quickly. Not are there requisites but there are tasks which should be done in a certain order because it's a little or much more efficient in building and pooling resources. Every time you buy something new you should pay attention to how it effects your other resources. I made the mistake of jumping in with both feet on a new task and then watching all my other resources plumet like crazy. I don't want to scare people away from this game though. It's not an over complicated game. There is just a hierarchy to the building which you will learn piece by piece over time. To me this makes the game much more addicting. The wars are fun and are suggested for bringing in more resources. I have seen raid losses but so far for me nothing too harsh for resources taken. Having said that I am currently in one of the higher tier guilds and I wonder with a much bigger pool of guilds if others toward the bottom will have issues winning or collecting gold. To me the use of gold is most valuable dealing with timers...especially timers dealing with bonus benefits or unlocking new buildings. How difficult will it be for weaker guilds to gather gold for bonuses? I don't honestly know. The only other issue that I have that is a minor thing is that the bottom menu bar almost looks like a banner because it looks so muddy. I would somehow sharpen it up and give it some pop. I will add more later but this is already a bigger wall of text then I am used to making so I will end it here. Awesome game so far.

    Do you have unburied corpses or sick people? I don't know if that affects morale but it might do?

    Can't wait to play this one. Tap Titans, Bitcoin Billionaire, and Adventure Capitalist are my only definite daily play games. Incrementals and clickers are strangely addicting!

    I agree with this comment. Surely the most strategical tapping game so far.

    That is fine by me. Dont see anything right or wrong with the approach you guys are going with but just that there is a possibility that people without patience would give up after few mins of trying out. :p

    And no please dont dial down anything, I think it is great right now. I feel that it's good to let people have their choice. It is possible to stop especially later part in the game as your finger can get really tired when you try to manage a big country :D Just that earlier of the game it makes you want to see more and what's next lol.

    Lastly I wanna report something that I not sure if it is intended or a bug. Firstly I wanna ask how is the gave save handled? And names that are being used in game. As I notice a bug where you can have duplicate? Right now in TouchArcade clan there are 2 Kopicha which both are myself. The one with 0 trophies is the original one I started the game with. Played for awhile and I wonder how the save game is being handled. So I decided to delete the game then redownload it. When I go in everything starts new and when I am choosing my name, I could use the same name again. Then I joined TouchArcade which is when I realized there are no 2 Kopicha inside it. :confused:

    1. There are confirmations for big purchases, but we probably should add them on small too

    2. Right now the player base is small so the Raiding system isn't doing any restrictions (ie, same-clan) for picking targets

    3. Not all raids are real-time, so it's possible the version of yourself was from an earlier state. OR maybe, you just have an evil twin out there who isn't as good at raising armies ;)

    4. This could be clearer! We are adding a bit more Help info in the next update. Helpful HLW has most of it though, so I'll just officialize what he said:

    HLW: I think piety is just a resource like the others, it's used for some technology, knights, and dragons, I think constructing the Wonder uses it too. Corpses make workers sick, and sick workers don't work. It seems to be farmers that get sick first. Graves are how you dispose of the corpses.

    5. The options when attacking are different sized Civs. Bigger Civs being more likely to have more (or higher-tech) troops, but also offering more sweet sweet resources and land to pillage. The rally button does offer a small boost to your army (or your workers during wolf attacks, if you don't have an army yet!)

    6. Archers are better than soldiers, knights are better than archers, dragons are (way) better than knights. The "Improves Soldiers" techs upgrade all of them (not just soldiers, as it sounds)

    Sounds like your Civ is off to a fast start :D & yes, you can unfortunately get attacked even if all your soldiers are dead... believe it or not, raiding and pillaging warmongers don't always play fair ;) I'd suggest doing some hasty recruitment next time that happens!

    We are ecstatic at the overwhelmingly positive reception from you guys :D Bigger clans is definitely something we'll consider

    Trophies are supposed to be minimal, they're just a record of how many raids you've won in your career. Skulls are the thing to pillage (and you should get more of from bigger Civs), and those are what decide the weekly contest. You do have to tap the Plunder button, but as you rightly point out... why wouldn't you want to :D

    Oh no! What's your Player & Civ Name? And have you been playing on multiple devices?

    As HLW mentioned, the '6 days left' was the time until the next week's contest ends (it happens on Sundays 00:00:00 GMT)

    (HLW, you could be an honorary moderator of the game! Thanks for being so helpful and answering these questions even quicker than me :))

    The main things that'll cause this are: Running low on Free Land, sick workers, low piety, and unburied corpses

    One man atop a mountain of skulls, ruling his Civ with an iron fist... what a scary image :D

    Thank you for the feedback! I'm glad you're enjoying the game, and getting the hang of the strategy. We really wanted to make something that could be as simple or deep as players want, so to read your description of figuring it all out has me very happy :)

    They both do! Unburied corpses especially... it really hurts farmer morale when they have to step over the rotting bodies of their friends to go to work

    Uh oh, sounds like there's going to be a few TA clans competing! Which one will end up on top??

    As mentioned above, since there aren't too many players right now there's no exclusion of Raid targets... you can find yourself pillaging your clanmates :D This will be fixed in the full release!

    Losing impatient users is definitely a concern... but we're really hoping people are mostly smart and curious enough :)

    Save games are kept locally on your device, so playing on an iPad will be a different game from your phone. This also means that, as you sadly discovered, deleting the app will erase your Civ :(

    HUGE bug! I was expirementing with clan members To see if they were worth it, and I had a friend help me out... I added my friend to the clan, then after I was done messing around with stuff, I kicked him. Instead it kicked myself. Not that big of a problem, so I rejoined through the invite code still on my friends device. I've lost my near 500 skulls... Wut...

    Yes! This is definitely something we want to add

    Ack!! That is nasty, and I just did some basic testing and couldn't replicate it. Uh oh :( Is there any chance you accidentally entered your own name, kicking yourself? & I didn't see another player in the clan, so it looks like you've managed to kick him in the end?

    Land deduction

    If I add buildings in bulk it only deducts 1 free land. So if I add 100 or 1000 slots of storage or places for workers it only subtracts 1 per order. Is that supposed to do it like that?
