    Spectacular job on this game. 2 days in and you haven't pissed me off yet. That makes you very special for a freemium game. We're talking Tiny Tower territory here. I love the Dark Room-style resource management happening here.

    This is the "balance all your resource gathering and manufacturing while your environment grows logarithmically" game I've been craving. So many CoC clones and city builders have come and gone without scratching this particular itch.


    I especially appreciate the fact that occasionally it's possible to trade resources for gold. I also appreciate your committed involvement here on the forum. This is the first game I'm so into that I'm obsessively playing it on my iPad and iPhone in parallel. It would be nice to sync games but I kinda like having two instances to manage.

    I've started figuring out the ratios involved for building wonders and keeping everything in balance. After I prestige once I'll correlate this with the upgrades and make a cheat sheet if no one beats me to it. For now, with an unknown upgrade configuration, for each Wonder builder I seem to need:


    15 clerics
    3 blacksmiths
    3 tanners
    50 loggers for herbs
    50 miners for ore

    (edit: oh wow. worker mood factors into this too.)


    My clan is full but NYRUF247

    We want CivCrafter to be about who plays the most, not who has owned it the longest. It's a game... we kind of want people to play it :p


    Thanks so much, Finn the Human!


    Hey Ottis! Ton of good questions there. We're happy to help with some early progression questions to get users started, but once you've got the basics down we urge you to ask the users here or to post in some of the other CivCrafter discussions. We're getting a few thousand "how do I get ___?" questions a day now, and we sadly aren't able to answer all of them anymore :).





    We want to, but we're worried about the resources it would take to moderate something like that. We've already got our hands full with the names and mottos. We are exploring some options!



    This is all great to hear! Thanks for playing it and for sharing your thoughts, spblat :)

    I'm sorry that I haven't been able to answer every question that popped up here while I was sleeping... we are literally getting thousands of questions a day right now. For a lot of the questions here, please take a close look at the help page, as many of them have been addressed. For anything technical, get in touch using that form. And for the rest of the general gameplay questions, please consider asking your fellow TA users. They know the ins and outs better than we do at this point :)

    Also, that function of wiping your attacking or defending troops when you close out the app is totally unjust. What if a user's app crashed? That just happened to me with 240k archers vs like 20k defenders and now I'm down to a realm....... I understand the rule you're enforcing, but why don't you just save the attacker and defender troop numbers temporarily as the combat commences, and if the app does close for some reason while in combat, resume the fight when the app reopened again?

    I lost 240k archers cause your app was unstable. Whose fault is that?

    Basically here's the problem with a scenario: Phone call during a raid! There goes ALL your troops and progress!

    Ah I logged back in once to see all of mine missing and wondered what happened there! That does seem irritating especially as you get more and more population and troops.

    I agree if it's possible there should be some leeway as with me I believe the battery died whilst playing, getting a call too should be acceptable. As long as it doesn't shut in multitasking it must be easy to avoid? Unless the battery dies like mine.

    This has already been changed in the next update :). Message me using the support page I've linked previously and let me know your TA username and how many troops you lost.

    Also, I finally got my wonder. I chose food bonus for my wonder, but I'm not seeing any production boost? I still only see the +20% from clan. I tested my food production from playing around with the farmers, but still no visible production boost. The hell?

    I'm on crop rotation, aesthetics, and feudalism so far, knight/archers already unlocked. Anyone know how close I am to dragons? Also does absolutely nothing generate while the app is closed? (piety, negative food?)

    Is there a faster way to make people? I only have 125k population but over x10 of that in max pop.


    Also anyone know what effects skull/trophy count? I've attacked every size up to realm and have gotten less than 5 each per hit. It looks like empire is the highest you can kill.

    Hahaha nice technique!


    It doesn't show a multiplier, but it's happening. The range is approximately 10%

    Does anyone know what the optimal battle formations are? Should I have a balance of soldiers, archers, knights and dragon or is it fine if I just pool all my resources towards knights and dragon? It's rather difficult to tell if either is making a difference.

    My clan is Lionshare, invite code REMUV733. For some reason I assumed the tag was supposed to represent your country, so I just put in AUS. Hope this does not somehow backfire because there are no Australians playing.

    Really? With all my population farming, I produce around 104 people per second. After I built the wonder, it's still 104.
    Are you sure the clan bonus stacks with wonder bonus?

    Hello,

    I've come across a glitch where if you hit the rate button, which rewards 20 gold, you can reboot the app and "rate" it again for another 20 gold. This can be done repeatedly for a massive sum of gold. Worst of all you don't have to even rate the app. You can simply close the rate page on the AppStore and open the app to "rate" it again.

    Looks like there might be a bug preventing it from working for some users. We're submitting the next update right now, and I'll add in a fix!

    We haven't been able to reproduce this. If you don't mind, message us here so I can ask you one additional question. Thanks so much!

    Thanks and also, what's stopping you guys from just implementing a "+10%" production bonus from wonders to the resource tab up top, similar to the "+20%" clan bonus? It would reduce confusion

    how are you guys going about building the wonder? I thought about making a ton of dragons and raiding a ton of resources at low troop loss but realm/empire have huge armies, also dragons are so stupid. 2 hours to make one.

    Currently I'm running
    1k wonder workers
    1.6k tanners
    1.6k blacksmiths
    450 healers
    8000 clerics
    50000 loggers
    50000 miners
    140k farmers


    It's pretty much perfect production for staying even.

    Hello, I love this game. It is actually addicting. I would like to see though some kinda chat with guilds thing it would be nice to be able to chat with your guild members get help. Maybe gift resources and stuff to other guild members that may need it. Or donate troops so they don't keep getting raided and destroyed so other guilds can't kill me and take trophies.
