{"game_intel_data":{},"featured_reviews":[{"content":"I would have loved it if it actually played like Stronghold. This is sadly a waiting game unless you pay money for game time to pass a little bit quicker. Build something, wait a few minutes to a few hours for it to be built. Send a scout out and wait. Wait wait wait. I put up with it, and I ended enjoying it... Until I was required to pay to build things/play the game.  Sadly I paid for cards before I found out that I had to pay to play after their free whatever token ran out. And now I really regret it. I love Stronghold. I have every single Stronghold game. This is just insulting. Why have you done this? I'm sure many of us would have been happy to pay a flat rate for the real game. I don't care for this buy tokens to build anything in the village, and buy game money for random cards that may or may not be useful for temporary abilities to build my damn village. I just wanted to play the game I've loved so much.  You're right responding to everyone who complains about the same thing with \"not a pay-to-win\", it's not, it's a pay-to-play.","version":"30.139.1470","date":"2018-10-02T00:00:00Z","rating":1,"app_id":"com.fireflystudios.strongholdkingdoms","username":"A Google user","title":"","country":"US","tags":["monetization","performance_and_bugs"],"review_id":"986c2c04-b1c8-435d-9437-38a134961cfe"},{"content":"Enjoyed the first few days. It's interesting. I do like the gameplay. But when i wake up, decide to check on it and i now can only build 1 building at a time, research 1 thing at a time because a queue for some reason has to be placed behind a premium pay wall? I don't wanna have to rely on premium to get anything done in the game.

While the app does extremely well using elements from the Stronghold series, it plays too much like a typical mobile game, especially with the microtransactions and wait times. There needs to be better ways to earn cards, decrease waiting times, and earn passive income. It still gets 4 stars for nostalgia factor, and for the few grind options they have to naturally get farther along.
