I am never bored..you have to think because you may run out of resources. You do not need to do everything on the level to pass but you do need strategy. I have enjoyed all the games by this developer and I do not understand the negative reviews. I have bought almost every TM game they have made and play them repeatedly.

The game itself is alright. Very easy to play. Volume can be turned down so you don't hear the sound effects. However, I don't feel this TM is worth 13.99 even with the strategy help.

Lets start by listing the positive things. You can turn the awful Klaxon sound off. Not sure why they even put that klaxon there as it is very annoying each time you click on something and its great you can turn it off.
This is a very standard tm game with nothing of interest. First big no is there appears to be only one skill level. the buildings are just signs stuck on rocks and are difficult ...Show more

This is a very standard tm game with nothing of interest. First big no is there appears to be only one skill level. the buildings are just signs stuck on rocks and are difficult to define. I had to look very carefully. Not sure how many levels extra for a CE but there is a basic strategy map which again is not easy to see some art and that's it. Graphics are very old fashioned. I was so hoping to find something positive about this but I am sorry In the words of Simon Cowell, its a no from me. If you want a straight forward game then you may like this but there are so many out there like this what is the point in another. I give a generous 2 stars Show less

I don't recommend this game.

There were a few surprises here, but they still added up to me not liking the game. It is a standard gather build and upgrade TM. It holds nearly all the features recognisable by this developer including the numbered countdown while tasks are done.

You will gather wood and crystals, clear pits and rock obstacles, upgrade buildings and trade, but mainly running around just picking things up. The strategy in this is interesting but exceedingly frustrating, as it feels more like trickery mixed with the obvious.

If you don't go exactly the right direction first you will run out of resources immediately and have to repeat. There is a numbered strategy guide. It does however not tell you what to upgrade, and I found myself actually NOT doing this sometimes was the only way to make time. (even on level 2 I am ashamed to say lol) Not upgrading or not even building seems to be the only way to pass some levels. It might be very 'clever', but I found it left me frustrated and not enjoying the game one bit. On other levels, if you did find the right path first time..it was just plain boring after that. The only thing you were choosing was what to upgrade and what to bother to build. I came across this once before where not building something was often part of the gameplay.

The sound is truly awful! Every move is accompanied by a kind of zappy lasery noise. By the time I finished the demo my head was tense and who wants to play a game without the sound on!

There are achievements, and art and wallpaper in this and 50 levels only and not even a collectable in sight! I don't see what makes it worthy of a CE. I wont be getting even the SE. Besides it is just like the style of any other game by this developer and that never seems to change,.I find it a cross between boredom and pure frustration. The strategy may be tricky at times but its so darn uninteresting and certainly could not be called 'fun'.

I cant think of any reason to recommend this, especially as a CE. Even if you are not jaded by this style of game as I am, I still don't think you would enjoy it much. I don't know which market this was designed to reach, but it wasn't me and I am a TM fan above all. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

I played for 25 minutes and each level was pretty much exactly like the one before - little visual interest - no surprises.

I don't recommend this game.

This was an exercise in patience. Of course, the sounds were awfully annoying, but I turned them off, which I don't like to do. I also disliked the music and turned that off. So playing was a bit drab. The entire 18 minutes that I did play were spent clicking on an item, running to pick it up, returning. No strategy, no fun. It was painful.

I don't recommend this game.

THESE DEVS ARE OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY WHEN IT COMES TO TM GAMES

I don't understand why BF keeps offering these incredibly boring TM games. Even though they keep changing the title, they are all the same...boring. Are these guys so out of touch with what players actually like, or do they just not care? This game is so tedious and so boring that I couldn't finish the demo, it felt like a dreadful chore that I just wanted to get done so I could enjoy life again! ...Show more

Are these guys so out of touch with what players actually like, or do they just not care? This game is so tedious and so boring that I couldn't finish the demo, it felt like a dreadful chore that I just wanted to get done so I could enjoy life again! That's pretty bad, folks :(

There are 60 Main Levels, kudos to anyone able to complete them, and Extra CE levels that can't be accessed until the main game is completed. This feature can be found on the level Map on the top right, as a purple swirl icon. There are 22 Trophy Achievements as well.

You can earn up to 3-Stars per level but I didn't find a Game Difficulty Mode setting (not that you'll need one) The tasks are boring and all involve sending a little robot to do the dirty work...until you build huts for the locals only to enslave them in the crystal mines...REALLY???

This Collector's Edition has a mysterious number of Bonus Levels, 6 Music Soundtracks, 17 Concept Art Pictures and a Built-In Strategy Guide...hardly worthy of the extra price. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

No challenge and we repeat the same things over and over again. The sound of the moving robots is so annoying and the process so boring that after 5 levels, I uninstalled the game. Sorry BigFish.

I don't recommend this game.

There is an awful sound played every time you click something. It was enough to make me exit and delete the game. An hour of that would have me pulling my hair out. Such a shame as it looked really good. The graphics were clear although a bit small.

I don't recommend this game.
