Misty Continent Reviews

by Bluesuedeirzrad

I’d love to be a professional game reviewer, just to I can better expose how horrible of a game that is Misty Continent.

What behinds beautifully illustrated graphics is boring gameplay, convoluted events and poor interaction. The developers would be better off to spend less time in coming up with schemes to make more money and invest in good storytelling. Donkey Kong has more of a story to it than this game. That’s right, a game with a giant gorilla and a drunk jumping over barrels to save his lady friend has more story than this excuse of a Victorian age adventure.

But let’s discuss the worst part of the game. The Wars. The unregulated, lack of logic, game ruining wars.

Let me explain the problem.

In most games, you can have PVP challenges, with a 5 minute cooldown. At that point, you have the option to challenge a NEW opponent.

With this game? Nope, forget that rule. You can attack the same player over and over until you deplete them of all resources. No cool down, no new opponent. And let me add, you are defenseless to anyone above you, so if someone comes along more powerful and you are busy shopping for cookies and salmon, you are screwed.

So what that mean for new users or players that have been around for 2 months? Unless you pay to play on a regular basis, you just need to give up. There’s literally no point in playing a game with such an unfair style of gameplay.

In other words, do not download.

This game is nothing like the advertisements or the pictures shown in MistyContinent Store. It’s really a war game. You accumulate resources and other players attack you and takes them away. In between attacks you get to try to build your estate and participate in challenges. If you’ve never played a game like this be warned that it is not well documented. You learn everything by trial and error and when you make mistakes you lose resources and it may cost you some real money to get back your resources. Stronger players like to attack new players like myself who don’t know what they’re doing. It’s no fun to lose all your resources that you’ve spent weeks accumulating. Things just don’t make sense in the storyline. Your estate seems to be built on a large island however when you look at the map there’s no water near your estate.

I think these shady devs are taking down reviews? Also putting up fake ones.. you can tell the fake ones there are a lot! I thought you could not do that?! Anyway in my review letting wanna be new players know that once you get to level 22 and up(18+ is the 1st big jump in rss needed to level up buildings) you’ll never be able to play free to play without moving up to stay relevant ! Oh by the way I’m a spender but I still rather not spend! So I think I said the wrong amount of resources needed for level 23 stronghold(a huge jump) You need 40m food! 2m silver! if you play free to play you’ll be stuck there probably for a couple months if not longer! you can’t gather enough and if you do you’ll get frustrated and quit because of how long it will take! The resource nodes are very small, it’s a joke… especially silver! I read in a review not long ago that (I’m sure was taken down) that the Shady devs‘s are being sued! I don’t know, I’m gonna report these idiots to Apple see what happens!

by BTQuarles

After I got attacked by the same person over and over which is supposed to be against the games terms, I could not heal or repair anything because I had no resources left. So unless I totally start over by creating a new account or spend more money to buy resources I am done. I played this game a while and was an alliance leader and really liked it. Once you get a certain size though you become a target for the game bully who attacks and destroys leaving you with nothing which is what happened to me (I didn’t get back in time to reshield). Unfortunately the shield only lasts 8 hours. This was a good game and most of the players were great, but it only takes one to bring everything down. Eventually this will cause people to quit playing, but until then allot of people will waste their money trying to build their estate. DON’T EVEN START, YOU WILL JUST WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!!

I have played this game for a while now and always enjoyed it, but now is a different story. I am currently a C35. It takes a lot to get this far. I don't enjoy this game anymore and I am seriously thinking of quitting. The two biggest reasons are:

1. They are getting way too expensive. We all have a life and times are hard now. We can’t afford to spend all the money they want us to. They make it so you can’t grow without spending😡 This gal is NOT going to spend!!
2. The other main reason is the new change they have made. It is utterly ridiculous! It makes no sense plus the only reason they did it was to get us to spend more😡 Well not happening. Come on Devs…read the reviews. So many people are quitting this game because of the amount of $ you want us to spend and the horrible changes you have made! This most recent change is horrible and NO ONE likes it. Many have quit!!
3. On top of all this we are supposed to have MODS and CUSTOMER SERVICE to help us. What a laugh😂 They are useless! In our kingdom we have a big bully who consistently hits and tries to kill most of the kingdom. This person says condescending and vulgar things and has been reported many, many times. Most of the time customer service😂 does nothing and when they do all this person gets is muted for a couple hours😡 He never stops bullying! Many have quit because of this person but they don’t ban him. Very poor customer service😤

It’s not an adventure…. It’s a war game. I’m level 22 after about 85 days.
At this point there’s no way to farm enough of the resources to grow or build. It’s all spend money on subscriptions.
App Store photos are deceptive, not accurate. Game and events are glitchy on an iPhone 13 ProMax. All Events are poorly designed, deliver pitifully few rewards for the effort. Instructions for all game play and events are complicated and don’t reveal the details needed to succeed and it’s trial and error, completely frustrating. People in our alliance spend 100’s of dollars, monthly and there’s no end in sight to spending.

If this were an adventure game with out gathering resources, no war & troops, it would be much more enjoyable.

by Steven D. Miller

Another pay-to-progress game that has building times taking hours and days … after, of course, quickly advancing you through early stages of the game to hook you. — And the advertising, promising loads of rewards for using special codes as a draw to get you to download, is nothing like what was promised. — Just another Big Fruit-approved scam.

— UPDATE. After giving the game a fair shot, it has been DELETED. Customer Service and the developers did not want to resolve a huge loss of potential rewards from an event that they screwed up. Customer service was delayed by days, then provided patronizing and useless responses, in addition for asking for screenshots AFTER the event was over and refused to help unless the SS were provided. I refuse to be treated this way … therefore, GAME DELETED.

by Victoriarus

I’ve played games of this kind before, like the game of war and puzzles and survival. Never have I seen the game as poorly done as this! It is glitch upon a glitch - boosts that don’t work, flickering screen, crashing, jumping chat, invisible buildings and buildings that you can’t select, phantom mines - these are just a few off the top of my mind. The worst of it is the customer service. If they respond to you AT ALL, it’s only to tell you that you shouldn’t believe your eyes and everything is great. Their VIP customer service is a joke. It’s just another chat room where they put some poor chap to serve as a punching bag when they deliver developers’ idiotic response.

In other words, save yourself THOUSANDS of dollars (yes, that’s how much it will cost you to play) and nerves, find a different game.

‘Want a cool mermaid skin? Reach the top of a 15 floor tower by finding the designated item under 1 of 25 slabs. Find the item, and you get to move on to the next floor. But wait, you need a 1-time use hammer to break 1 slab to reveal the hidden item!’ I was able to reach floor 3 for free, and it was here I thought spending $100 dollars would at least get me close to unlocking the mermaid skin. It gave me 30 hammers, but I had to break all the slabs to progress to the next floor. Assuming one’s luck goes as bad as this for all floors, you’ll need to spend $1,200 dollars to get the mermaid skin. Twelve thousand dollars. For a mermaid skin, that barely does anything other than look pretty. Don’t play this game, and certainly don’t reward the company who made it by giving them your money.

I’m writing this because I just noticed that they have increased gathering speeds.

I’ve been playing for about four months and I have been growing pretty well, although I just noticed that they changed gathering speeds not only that but silver, which is rare already they have made less tiles. Also the events are pretty lame more directed towards 12-year-olds than adults with wallets. they just introduced the dungeon. What a joke. I should’ve known before even starting this game that the developers don’t care one bit about the gaming experience. You can tell that by their laziness, they don’t even respond to any reviews not even with a generic message like most companies.

I will be selling my accounts and moving on to a new game. Wish you all the best if you download it.

by Soltho

This game is a rip off. DON’T SPEND YOUR MONEY ON THIS GAME. IT IS A RIP OFF.

This game was fun. But now it takes forever to load. Every time you want you move from one area of the game to another the game has to spend time thinking about it. This game spends more time thinking about what you want to do then actually doing it. Don’t bother. You will only get frustrated waiting for the game to think about each move you want to make. I am so done. I’m not even sure why they want me to spend hard earned cash on their game. I’m pretty sure they won’t read this review and or fix the problems. Do waste you money or your time on this game.

DON’T spend any money on this game. They just want you to spend more for rewards. $40 wasn’t enough getting them one of the top 10 spots, NO you have to spend even more.

by Choosemyownadventure

This game starts out kind of fun and once you get your castle to a certain level you can join an alliance and make friends. But eventually all the events turn into the same boring gathering resources and training troops over and over again. Sooner or later the players who thought they were signing up for a war game have nothing left to do because all the other people have been zeroed and left the game or there is a nap strangle hold on the whole thing. Even the kvk events aren’t all that interesting and are very few and far between. I think the kingdom Im in has maybe a month left in it at most before all the main players give up completely.

The side games are kind of a joke really. Very little options to make them challenging in good ways. The daily tasks are just a slog to get through and the rewards are minimal.

Also, it’s a total money pit. Resources for any building past level 18 are just impossible without purchasing because there isn’t enough other players to battle for it and gathering takes forever.

The only good part at this point to me is the friends I’m making in my alliance, but we’re all getting so bored that I’m pretty sure most of us won’t last much longer. It’s sad really, I know several of them who played other games for a long time. Unfortunately Misty Continent just won’t sustain long term play at the current rate they’re releasing new features.

I downloaded this game based off of an ad I saw and should have spotted the red flag as soon as I did. It looked nothing like the ad.
I played it anyway and it was fun, until it wasn’t.
The resources get harder to acquire as you level up and even when you get them they’re gone in an instant as you level up as you have to level multiple things at once in order to push the game forward. Leveling times get ridiculous fairly quickly.
You want to level a building to 16, that’s 2 days that you wait while trying to get the resources to level something else up.
Attacking anything takes a lot of your energy, ok I can live with that, until I wake up this morning to find the game broke it’s own rules and allowed the same person to attack my town 36 times in the span of 5 minutes, wiping out my resources. Upon trying to heal my troops I find that it won’t let me heal them because I don’t have the resources to do so leaving me vulnerable to attack and no way to defend.
So yeah, thanks for the bait and switch and the broken game mechanics.

New changes to the game recently have relieved some of the tedium and make it fun to play again. But our kingdom is mostly dead due to players quitting for multiple reasons. Some are constantly raided until they quit, some quit because individuals can make game play a misery for the entire kingdom. Some quit because if you don’t pay, you don’t excel as fast or as far as those who do pay. Then there are the customer support issues, or lack of support issues. I’ve submitted multiple tickets for multiple issues over the year that I’ve played, only to have them promptly closed with a statement of we will look in to it. I’ve paid money and have a decent account, but I look forward to the day I quit for good.

by OnePsycho

to play it on my new Mac mini. I know there have been a few problems with the game resently but you have fixed them. Thank you.
A few months ago you posted in game that we could play the game on the desktop. But it has to atleast have the M1 chip. I have the Mac mini M2 chip. so it works and it does not work. the game comes up but when you go to send a msg it kicks you out. I was using my apple keyboard everytime. so i tried an old one i used in my patrol vehicle. well it did more, two keys were typed and sent. there is a problem and i would give you a 5 star when this is fixed. Oh i did sidmit the ticket to apple strore
thank you

PS still not working on MINI

I'm tired of ads showing games that are not even remotely like the videos they advertise, so now I write reviews every time I see this, detracting one star from the rating I would otherwise give, and explain a bit about what the game is actually like.
In the case of this game, I have played it for over a month, and there are no 3d adventure scenes that you play through. None at all. Instead, this game is mostly about building your civilization to conquer threats and beat other players, and mostly is pretty much exactly like Guns of Glory. This adds some puzzle play to the game, but that is the only unique thing about it, and they aren't even very good puzzles. Otherwise, so much of it is exactly like Guns of Glory. You build your civilization, train troops, deal with upkeep on those troops, and defeat threats and, if you like, other players. No 3d adventure at all, anywhere.

While I am enjoying this game thus far, I have to say that I was disappointed when I opened up the map in this latest update. Before, the map seemed much more dynamic, with the mountains looking like mountains, the and the castles all being easy to distinguish from each other. Even the marching soldiers looked better.

Now the map seems bland, with even the Specter troops just looking like another army instead of having their own, unique look. The castles are less aesthetically pleasing, as well as our own troops. And don’t even get me started on the mountains: they just seem like flat patches of rock.

by Bklynchaos01

3 stars for graphics and simple puzzles for enjoyment and killing boredom, haven’t dug deep into it yet , but like every mobile game serves a purpose.. pay to play has no challenge, grind and patience can be a B*** but feeling at the end accomplished, using time to enjoy what comes next , this game if developers add more might be on A console, every game starts from somewhere, give it a chance, alliances may work in favor depending on team leader, and be blunt when’s the last time we all got what we truly want if you don’t show interest.. life has activities , play when you can , join if you want , otherwise grind the heck out of it and put some coin to get you unstuck.. just like every other game came in contact.. truth told .. enjoy the game regardless

by Jothan20

I like the story line mission to the game. Also, you seem to get what you need in resources without having to spend money.

However, as a city building PVP game, you are eventually open to attacks from far stronger players. I reached level7 and was constantly being hit by a player who had millions more in power than I did. Could not keep troops healthy long enough to do anything else. Would have been nice if the game ads or even preview pictures included that it was that style of game.
If you like that sort of game, go for it. As I said earlier, you seem to be able to get resources without having to buy with real money.

by Azuredge

It’s a really fun game that doesn’t require spending a vast fortune. It has some features that I’ve never personally encountered before such as the mermaids. The only thing that doesn’t make this game stand apart from the others is the map killer alliances. I’m in a little alliance that is constantly getting attacked by one vastly more powerful. When we asked why they do it their answer was “so you don’t get lonely.” This game worries about people attacking and hiding behind peace shields during events however doesn’t care about fair conduct at any other point. Based on this my thoughts are it’s just another blah game that could have been amazing.

by Unknown Auseer

I’m a relatively new player. The graphics are lovely, I’m interested in the people and the story, I like base building games. There is plenty to do so you don’t get bored. However, my burgeoning alliance is being disbanded by leadership due to something that *crippled* their enjoyment of the game: 100k power players being able to raid 10k power players and rob them clean of rss. Is there a penalty in place that lessens rss stolen when such a gap is in between the attack and the attacked? It doesn’t feel like it, and now my new guildmates are leaving the game for good. 😢 If that is what I have to look forward to, though, I will leave the game as well. I’m a peaceful player and don’t like it when big bullies beat me up over and over and over again when there’s no chance I would be able to fight back. If anyone’s gonna pick on me, I would rather them be closer to my size!

by SarDar707

I play this game daily. I love the battles, the wars, the quests, the plundering, and I have a great alliance. That said, anytime I look on MistyContinent Store for an update, I notice the pictures it shows LOOK NOTHING LIKE THE GAME at all. That is dumb. Also, the gameplay it shows in the previews is bull. It’s not that game. Why are devs trying to make it seem different than it is when it’s awesome already? The previews are NOT indicative of gameplay in the slightest.

by RoanokeMimi1968

I like this game a lot, I enjoy everything about it, except, it is very hard to get information from anyone! I have my stronghold up to level 17 and need to upgrade it to level 18…the requirements are to upgrade my wall, which I did, and the other requirement is to up grade the shooting range. The problem is I don’t have a shooting range and can’t find where I would get it from. Information should be easier to receive. I’ve figured out many things that were not explained, but information about the shooting range I can’t find. I would hesitate to encourage anyone to play this game unless they are willing to stumble their way through the game having to figure out everything. This is an update on the above review! I rated it a three the first time, I’ve now changed it to one star. I was hopeful that the developers would at the least respond to the questions asked. No! As I previously noted. If you have questions, you will not get any help. I have money tied up in it, but as soon as that is gone I’ll be deleting it.

Update: I like this game a lot, but trying to upgrade anything in the game is very difficult! That is if you are not in a really good allegiance. That is the key!! I switched allegiance and do not have any problems now.

by TerryDarcie

Only thing so far that I have not liked is when you do the updates you go back into the game to find that package is already out of date. Also would say the way to contact a customer support representative is horrible.
So I’ve played about 3 months now and the map
Color in Tidelands is horrible and very glitchy if that’s something your going to keep going that needs to be fixed. Also the mines in kingdom should be 2-3 times more in each one because I’m doing lev 22 strong hold now and need 32mill apples and you get 300 from a mine that will will take for ever not to mention your army eats those also. Something has to give if games going to survive.

by Darold B

I absolutely love this game for more reasons than I can easily list. The strategy required to be highly competitive and successful is perhaps the greatest draw for me, but there is a lot more to the game than just strategy.

It can be time consuming to advance in the game and level up your estate, but that is part of the process. You get a genuine sense of achievement as you progress through the story line, making the effort worthwhile.

Important Tip: Align with a good Alliance that will help and support you, and if your initial choice is lacking, seek out a better group.

by Lord Dovakiin

I love the game, but somethings glitch like tideland if you’re going to have events like that make sure the map works that you can see it and you don’t have to reload your device for five times because of freeze ups.
Do you have a saying that’s horrible is customer service? How do you find them on the game and how do you clarify but you didn’t receive stuff I did the first three updates after I did them I want to collect the stuff and it said out of date so nothing got to receive it but it’s still in my messages that’s there just can’t collect

by Arcadiaheights

I’ve played so many games over the years but this is by far my favorite! It has farming, puzzles, battles, hero collections, and I’m still unlocking features without having to spend money and waste a bunch of time leveling up just to go nowhere. The characters are really well thought through and the through line of the story is interesting. I’ve neglected all my other games since I started this one, and I’ve paid for other games that weren’t nearly as captivating…almost endlessly…gotta sleep though lol!

by Xzetic7

I’m not much for building conquest games but the storyline on this game really captured me. I’m at fourth chapter and the games progression in teaching you is phenomenal. I’m looking forward to the rest of the game so far five stars for quality, also their micro transactions are present but seem very minuscule at the time. I hope the quality of the game stays as I continue to level. Thank you for making a good game.
