Paragon Pioneers 2

Add an option for timers to be shortened for those who just want to play the game. My main issue with the game is that once you start using trade routes it all becomes unsustainable. No matter how many material the new island has and how many ships you assign, as soon as you close the game you'll come back to a mainland with unfilled needs and no traded items. mage portals are too mana heavy to use for anything besides supplying a small mage colony.

Beware that you will be wasting lot of your time on this game if you download. No nagging, no in-app purchases, just fun and entertainment. The money you pay is worth it as you will get months of fun gameplay. Its similar to Anno in many of the mechanics. Some of the end game features reminded me of an old mmorpg named Travian that I used to play as a kid.

- Mathew Jibin · v1.0.101

Still on it after 3 months. And finally unlocked northern islands, workers and archmages. Though there is a tiny exploit.. With the researcher guild it is possible to receive and spent research points for paragons and other not yet reached civilians. It's the question if this is intended or not c:

- Sam · v1.0.101

I played the demo before buying, and I have to say it doesn't feel like the demo was honest. In the full version, everything takes MUCH longer to happen; ships moving from island to island, ships being built, battles, etc. I open the game, tell my ship(s) to move or explore, close the game. That's not fun, sorry. I want to be able to play a game for however long I want to. This plays like a game with in-app purchases that let you speed things up, but there is no way to speed anything up at all

Scratches my Factorio Optimization Itch on Mobile. First Android game I've been addicted to in years. Amazing job devs

- Tony Lessmeister · v1.0.101

I've played for three weeks straight. I had fun most of the time. But you really need to know, that's an idle game. Nearly every action takes some time. ++Gameplay ++no adds + challenging complexity + offline + settings to costumize difficulty, UI and performance ~ design and style - idle time while in one session -- trading routes getting to complex for mobile device UI Wish: a commodity to boost or skip idle time while in a session.

- Felix

Great game

- Pedro Umanzor · v1.0.101

Saw this mentioned on reddit, played the demo for a couple of hours...great stuff. After the tutorial it slows down but starts to speed up after a couple islands. I wish there were more tooltips when things are selected. For example -Click on the icon of the heart for an explanation of its purpose and how to earn them. Apply that to things like trade routes. You can't create a trade route from the boat you must open the side menu, create a route then assign that route to a ship. Little things

THE GOAT

- D4L3 · v1.0.101

great casual game, no parasitic monetization or ads

- Quentin Bailey · v1.0.101

Incredible little game.

- dirkson · v1.0.101

Amazing game

It’s an amazing game I’m obsessed with it. Maybe change how the ending works. When I’m on the last phase of opening the place it takes 2 days. Also the arch mage is useless, I can beat the game without unlocking him. How about combing it to where the arch mage expedites that two day window?

- richdad1986 · v1.0.100

my wife and I love this game. It would be nice to trade with fellow players.

- R Kruger · v1.0.101

I was originally irritated by the slow early stages of the game, but I have continued to play and it has grown on me and become very enjoyable

- jason turner · v1.0.98

Excellent game, worth the money. This restored my faith in mobile games. They are rare, but good ones still exist.

- bomb · v1.0.98

Second play through, great game.

- Gary E Marchal Jr · v1.0.98

Thoroughly enjoyable, not completely addictive and yet somewhat. An excellent idle pass time.

- Katelyn morrison · v1.0.98

please more! :)

- Joachim Hienzsch · v1.0.95

Heavily Recommended! Played for probably 3 months so far and I rarely review but honestly it's a perfect game in my opinion, hard to explain but it has no micro transactions which makes everything feel so much more rewarding. For the first few weeks-months you play there's none stop stuff you can do, then as you start to unlock higher tiers things take longer time wise but unlocks so much stuff. I Do Recommend!

- Mysan Green · v1.0.95

really appreciate to fix ship traveling long time

- Lwin Phyo Paing · v1.0.95

This is probably the best phone game I've personally played, I can't stop messing with it. Work bathroom breaks got just a touch longer because of it though lol.

- Brett McGraw · v1.0.95

Good but VERY SLOW. Why make us wait HOURS when we just want to play? Very frustrating.

- Byron Blay · v1.0.95

A game designed for playing, not paying

An excellent example of a slow-paced singleplayer city/empire builder. This game has a variety of difficulty settings and customizations to satisfy those seeking challenge or chill. Best of all, unlike many mobile games in the genre, there are no premium currencies, no ads, no constant spam to link to social media and drag friends and family into playing just to access the full game’s content. Unfortunately seeing a mobile game that doesn’t use FOMO or a ridiculously ballooning grind curve to convince you to break open your wallet has become distressingly rare. This game stands out as an example of what a good mobile game should be.

- Shadowlich314 · v1.0.94

great game, no microtransacions or pay to win garbage.

- Benjamin Kauppi · v1.0.95

it's just a paid for idle game ain't no way I'm waiting 9 minutes for a is tutorial battle

- Brandon Roark · v1.0.95

Unlike any game I've ever played, very cool.

- Amie Eckelmann · v1.0.95

Extremely well-made, doesn't waste your time, and makes good use of strategy. This kind of game never fully hooks me, but it's unambiguously an *excellent* one and if you like these, you absolutely should give the generous demo a try. It grows quite nicely after it, a near perfect demo where you get a real feel for the game but there's a lot left.

- Steven L. · v1.0.68

I love this game. This is how mobile games should be. The pace, the price model, the difficulty customization. There is really nothing to complain.

- Notgiven · v1.0.95

I'm still on mg first island. Just started to send ships to discover new island. so far so good. game play is perfect. reminds me of anno. but I'm preferring graphics would be close to ceazar 3.

- R Ko · v1.0.95

It's good. No it's great. No nag screens. No micro transactions. Pick it up for a few minutes or a few hours and pick up where you left off. This is a seriously good logistics game.

- Adam Pliska · v1.0.95

Good game, no pay to win.

- Dave Prunster · v1.0.95

A great little idle city builder! Been looking for something like this for a long time. Fast and dirty works if you leave it to idle, but planning things out carefully can speed things up for the short term.

- Ben McKenzie · v1.0.95

Very fun game if you like automation and colony management.

- Shane Willis

Slow and dull gameplay, and sluggish graphics. You get about a minute of gameplay before having to wait for timers. It's incredible that people are comparing this with Settlers and Anno.

- Mark Steward · v1.0.95

This is a fun management simulator and idle game. I've been playing since the first version and the challenges and custodians add a level of replayability that keeps me coming back. Unlike a lot of other idle games, you aren't glued to the phone to come back at a certain time, and your not punished or overly rewarded for time away. You can play the game and make real progress in 5m, and if it takes you a few days to come back to the game, it's ok: nothing's broken and you haven't lost ground.

- Jeremy Sepinsky · v1.0.95

This is great, been playing for weeks. Only 1 thing which could improve would be the ability to zoom out to have whole island in view for the bigger island.

- N · v1.0.95

Finished the first island on the demo, really enjoyed it and wanted to carry on my game, so I had to buy it!

- Matty Longden · v1.0.95

Fantastic Well Thought Out Game

This is super fun and well thought out! Totally worth it!

- NathanStrutz · v1.0.94

it's just so damn good, I can't always get into games like this but the pacing and everything is great. love the mobile devs can still produce stuff like this

- Ben Peterson · v1.0.95

This is a great game! A lot to do, and enough downtime to give it a nice pace as well.

- Marcus Jackson · v1.0.95

I'm really impressed. this game is perfect for relaxing. no stress or required over thinking. I can play while listening to a podcast or watch TV without messing up anything. worth every dollar

- Jeff Faber · v1.0.95

I enjoyed the demo but omg the main game is so good! It's addictive and the gameplay is exceptional. You can see the developer crafted this masterpiece with love. I have over 1 day in game playtime and 6 days idle and I'm still only on colonists (I spent ages getting perfect production chains). Once you get experienced remember to checkout the extra settings which show you how many goods you craft per hour, that would have saved me a lot of time if I was using that earlier.

- Gary Aspinall · v1.0.95

Bumping this up to 5 stars. It's a great game.

- Margaret · v1.0.95

Fantastic, low stress, resource management/city builder. Just enough complexity to keep it interesting, plenty of room for tinkering with supply lines to optimize production, and very replayable.

- Greg Thompson · v1.0.95

Great game. The colonist mechanic, where the orcs never attack and you come in and take their land is a bit off-putting (yea, it's just a game) but I do appreciate the devs giving the (purchasable) option to be the orcs instead. Seems they also felt it might be a bit problematic. But I do get why they don't have the colonized attack as it would change the feel of the game quite a bit.

- Darryl Hardin · v1.0.95

A+ idle game

Fantastic game. Highly recommend if you are looking for a good idle game that isn't tap-crazy and not bombarded by ads.

- mhammer09 · v1.0.94

The demo was pretty fun so i bought the full game. After the end of the demo you can expand to a new island, the only problem is a whole lot of things start taking several RL hours. Fights went from 5-10 minutes to half an hour to two hours. Ships moving from one island to another takes at least 2-3 hours.

- James Pisarzewski · v1.0.95

Best Anno-like game on mobile

- Dmitrii Izumrudov · v1.0.95

Fun time killer

- Justin Rhea · v1.0.95

I'm enjoying it so far. Definitely scratches that resource management itch.

- Emily L · v1.0.95

The game's IAPs are fundamentally broken, and the Play Store cannot recognize it's own download. It thinks the app it installs is not from the Play Store, despite installing directly from it. IAPs will routinely disappear, and after button-mashing, cache clears and force stops galore, you will get ONE of them back, but if you own all 3 (like we do,) pick your favorite because you'll never get the other two to work simultaneously. Incredibly disappointed, this game was right up our alley.

- Greenpier System (Bee)

Game is interesting with it logistics but not worth the money as everything waits in real time. It is worth some money but not full price.

- BJ Baird · v1.0.90

Finally a game that's actually a game and not clicking between ads... one of a few games on mobile worth playing. Has some depth.

- Goran Ćutuk · v1.0.90

Absolutely amazing. Great work dev! Is number 3 in any longterm plans?

- Tvrtko Livaja · v1.0.90

Don’t hesitate, you won’t regret it!

If you are hesitating to buy this game, play the demo first, and it will hook you in. Even with the amount of builder games available I still have a hard time finding one that keeps me interested for longer than a week. This game has kept me excited for almost 2 months now. I really appreciate the option to play a demo first because I still hesitate to spend any amount of money on any platform. Honestly, this game is worth more than $6 just based on how much time I spend on it. I didn’t play the first game because I found this one first so I can’t compare the two but I have found battle calculators for the first game so hopefully a new one will be made for this game. The artwork is cute and the gameplay is fantastic. This game deserves more attention and recognition because it is absolutely worth it. Don’t hesitate, buy it!!

- Em5158 · v1.0.79

Great game

One of the best games I have played in years. Great mechanics. It has enough to keep you hooked for long periods of time.

- >The unnameable< · v1.0.69

Fun game and its on steam :)

For 6$ i have more playtime on this game than my other building idle games for pc and mobile. Im still fairly new im only at my 3rd island. I highly recommend this game. I just wish it had some sort of multiplayer trading then it wouldve been 5 stars for me

- OG CannonFodder · v1.0.69

This game is amazin

At first I had a hard time wrapping my head around this game. It punches way above its weight class in terms of what you need to learn and understand to enjoy it. But once it starts clicking, wow it’s a really fun time. I also like that it was designed to be enjoyed over a long period of time rather then to be consumed by a hungry gamer in one short span. My favorite phone game hands down.

- jverdin10 · v1.0.68

Confusing

Great game concept but very confusing, I’m constantly reading and rereading just to figure out how something works and then sometimes I still don’t know how it works.

- a.collin · v1.0.68

Unlike Any Idle Game

This game was a bit confusing to start and a lot of reading but after understanding more of the mechanics and how things work I am completely hooked. Well worth the money and you can tell a lot of thought and care has gone into this game. I’ve spent years playing random clicker idle games with supply chain mechanics and this is easily my favorite one. Thank you!

- RainDropp1 · v1.0.63

Best Idle Game I’ve played

I can’t stand idle games that are powered by ads or purchases. This is a well-balanced idle game without any of that.

- Kyler444 · v1.0.63

RNG and time based

RNG is broken. I send 50 troops to a castle vs 8 defenders. I lost all my soldiers and only killed 2. Sure… Waiting several hours for ships to get to an island supposedly close by… There were more things that bothered me, but I wont waste more of my time. I submitted for a refund. “Enjoy the game in a relaxed manner” “Halved enemy camp size” Absurdly high timers and no change to camp sizes on easier settings make it difficult to take you seriously with your patronizing response. All I play are idle and city/colony builders. I have 4700 hours on steam in Rimworld. 3600 hours on Prosperity. That isn’t the problem. The problem is 20 mins into the game your tutorial has me locate an island. 3 irl hours away? That is reasonable? Then sending 70 troops after the 2 early researches, they all die to 12 tier 1 troops? I have to play another who knows how long to get the townsmen additional 10? Your game needs balance. Desperately.

- Junk app.... · v1.0.63

Solid management sim

This is a very good game. It’s similar but definitely distinct from other town building simulators, with time tested elements like adjacency bonuses, micromanaging scarce resources, trade mechanics, and very satisfying expansion potential. These mechanics are well thought out, short term and long. The difficulty level and unlock progression are both handled pretty well. I play on the default difficulty and I’ve been challenged but not frustrated, but there are other options to suit everyone’s taste. It does play out a bit slower than what I originally wanted, but that’s become a feature that I enjoy rather than a drawback. The lack of bonus currencies or ads really helps to alleviate the mild sting of seeing an hours long timer on an action, especially since those actions are usually of fairly minor significance. You can still consistently play at a very active pace if that’s what you want. My extremely minor critiques mostly concern the occasional spelling error, which feel especially out of place given how polished the rest of the game feels. Aside from that there’s not much to complain about, I am satisfied and pleased with this mobile game which is a rare sensation.

- secular_mantis · v1.0.63

Even better than before

Played the first one. Now this is the sequel. Wow! Everything is nicer, a bit more depth, one more option. Love it. Well done sir!

- Koala404 · v1.0.63

Fantastic Game

I’ve played the original and was among the first alpha testers of the sequel. I love this series, and this game – it’s a fantastic way to kill small blocks of time throughout the day or an hour or two in one sitting, planning out large resource networks, organizing trade hubs, laying out large island designs, etc. More than worth the small price tag.

- Kyle JT · v1.0.58

Fantastic ‘Anno’-like Mobile builder

It has all the things people love about civ builders on mobile, without any of the nasty trappings to include micro-transactions, gatchas, or (negative) multiplayer experiences to force play. Clever building placement, production, and logistics are required to progress in a gentle and steady pace. There’s a ton to unlock and explore, but it comes steadily enough it’s not overwhelming. Additional benefits like advanced/improved buildings and ships give you opportunities to optimize layout and trade routes to speed up progression, which is compelling. Routes can be automated and the game can run itself until you have time to dive in again and make improvements to your island empire. There’s always something to tweak or replan to inch out more production to unlock the next tier, or get to the (next) game completion. Has been a treat to play and get into for many hours, one of the best building strategy games that has depth, requires thought to optimize, and wonderfully doesn’t turn psychological screws on you to get you to spend cash. I’ve enjoyed it quite a bit. Most Recommended!

- NGAjoe · v1.0.58

The best city builder by miles…

Hands down massive cudos to the developer, this game is 95% perfect. Casual gameplay, does not punish you for not paying attention. Full resource gain when not playing game. Easy production system to get in to, huge in scale. Free to try, one time premium purchase. Love the save file export/import system. No internet required. I love this game! Want the final 5% though? My suggestions all involve changing city layouts. 1. If i move my well to the block my warehouse is at Id like them to swap positions instead of blowing up the offending building as it does now. 2. I’d like to move multiple things around while in the move building menu. Right now you move one thing at a time. 3. A storage system letting me store every building on the island and place them all out how I want. Again, those three suggestions aside, this game rocks!

- taeles · v1.0.58

Best In Class!

My personal favorite idle game just got so much better. It has very intuitive resource management combined with ever growing depth. While almost every aspect of the game feels improved upon, the sequel’s research mechanics allow for more dynamic play styles and excited rewards around every corner. And best of all, you receive a fully developed game with month and month of play for a one time low cost. I actually want to give the dev a tip for making this design choice. I’d happily buy any future content they choose to release.

- Young Bible Thug · v1.0.58

Best game ever

The first installment was great and the second is even better. A+ game and A+ dev
