I love the game only problem I got is the first one should be free so people can try the game out first instead of buying the first one to see u gotta buy the second or vice verse lol

I have a situation on day 195 where the enemies spawning are attack buildings and hurting my guard tower guards and they can’t fight back.
- TheGamerFamilyDad · v2.0.3
The graphics are absolutely stunning, and the game play is solid. I mean, it does lack in a couple minor areas. There is no animation for guards getting on/off of the guard tower. I also get relatively attached to the little guys that guard my little city, and I’m sad that they just land in the dirt face first, and their battle buddies don’t remove them from the battle field. I dunno. It’s a great game, I play it all the time and it very quickly became one of my favorites. I’d really love to see a couple animations added, but other than that, the game is a masterpiece for $5.

The game is fun to play however as you advance and unlock the sailing function and start to clear the surround islands the game has a bug that doesn’t let you select the final 2 islands. It always redirects you either off world or to a totally different island. This bug prevents you from finishing the game and seeing how it ends. A true let down for what I would have given a 5 star game.
- Ismar_M · v2.0.3
This game is more of a light sim and less of a city building or defense strategy than I was hoping. Monsters are generic and defenses are very basic. You assign troops with one of three weapons but there’s no planning or strategy to it. Building your town, you can slightly optimize by your choice of building placement but again you can’t really do it wrong and either way you get basically the same result. No replay ability.
- j<dub> · v2.0.3
The game glitches a lot, characters get killed just because they get stuck in structures, it happens all the time, ruins the whole gaming experience. Deleting it.
- vfhjifvh · v2.0.3
Fun game so far but the trade menu has never opened for me. Clearly it’s a bug. I’ve uninstalled and started several new games. I’ve built ships, that I’ve ever only partially seen built in the dock, but the counter shows 5. Then build a Trade Post that only makes a click sound when I select it. I can’t finish the game without it. I’d like it to work or my $5 back. Thanks

Perks of this game is you’ll get plenty of playtime for your buck, with an ad free experience, no arcade token purchases, etc. My biggest frustration while sinking time into this game has been some poor design for mobile users. You are expected to nail really small icons in a crowded field to get to what you need, the macro-level views are limited, and there aren’t any macro-level adjustments you can make (redistribute weapons, auto assign optimal tools if available, etc). Combined with the need to reassign all of a villager’s tools again if you switch them between production jobs vs combat jobs and it becomes tedious. My second biggest complaint is obvious bugs/jank. There are more than a handful, and they all interfere with this being an enjoyable experience.
- OSBastard · v2.0.3
A fun, moody take on city building, but once the town starts getting dense, characters frequently get stuck in buildings (particularly after battles) where they’ll eventually starve to death if the building is not destroyed. Makes the game unplayable.
- paxacha · v2.0.3
Fun mechanics, but on IOS, the trading dock isn’t always selectable, making ships useless. Others have reported this as well, and the only solution appears to be reinstalling the game, which isn’t much of a bug-fix. What gives?
- Sleeved_ace · v2.0.3
An update please. My lil peeps keep getting stuck and then dying of starvation or sleep deprivation. Please add more content so I can keep my city growing :) Thanks
- ggaaahh · v2.0.3
Please make a 3d one been waiting for years
- Ajjjjjjjj1212 · v2.0.3
Great game but it keeps crashing and kicking me out of the game
- Liontamers · v2.0.3
It is a great game but has a specific glitch that make it frustrating to play. The settlers get stuck and never enter their homes, causing lack of sleep as well as easy prey at night. Would like to see some decor. Options to change how some things look as they advance. I’m excited to see how this progresses.
- Sullenmay · v2.0.3
Have spent the entire day trying to play this. The first time I put about 5 hours in and after a while noticed I couldn’t do anything with my trading dock. After some research it is a known bug and the only thing to do is to restart as you can’t even click on the trading dock to destroy it and try again. So I tried a second playthrough. And again the trading dock is inoperable. Complete waste of money, game does not function properly.
- Dltnbutler · v2.0.3
It’s cute, the visuals are indie and overall it’s a good variation on RTS. I love these types of games, but unfortunately there’s too many bugs with this one. At first it isn’t obvious but then you quickly start to see that things aren’t working as they should and the UI/UX is awful. A lot of tapping to opening tiny windows with difficult to ready text. Fabricating 10 armor but the guards never wear them. Fabricating a bow but you need bowmanship master skill, but there is not skill selection UI. Most of the game ends up managing the guards who patrol the area and die easily from various attacks. And mitigating those loses by using other workers (like blacksmith or hunter), which becomes tedious. I tried to play the game where I stayed indoors the whole time. I went 160 days before mega creatures appear and destroy my village. Even at 160 days, the best building was a trade shipyard. But there was no one trade with so it made no sense. Also there’s no obvious way to brew wine or forge steel. $4.99 is a bit high for this type of gameplay. I would have expected something more intuitive.

المشكلة هي انه تطوير الشخصية إلى رامي أسهم تكون فعاله بس ما يجني او أحط قوس الأسهم للشخصية اللي فيها تطويرة رامي الأسهم معى انه معاي قوس الأسهم فوق العشرين ما يمديني أحطها للشخصية
- abdulhadi2223344 · v2.0.3
I played the game for about 5 to 6 hours. I found myself just equipping guards for the night and un-equipping them for the day. It got to the point where it was nighttime by the time I finished un-equipping guards and daytime the finished time I finished equipping them. This seemed to be a very effective strategy, and became very tedious after a while, and I got bored of the game.
- bilbob236 · v2.0.3
Don’t do it. Glitchy. Not worth the price. Wish it had more features to see what the villagers were lacking (tool or cart, etc) instead of clicking on every single one to see their statuses. Graphics are subpar. Copy paste job. I wish there were a few sentences about all the different things you can do in the game. It’s not intuitive.
- Char0Latte · v2.0.3
Love it
- Vll xxx · v2.0.3
It’s impossible to finish the game due to issues with the island exploration screen. Sinking hours into a game that can’t be finished is so unsatisfying.
- TheAwesomeMango · v2.0.3
I really love this game but I’ve noticed here on day 53 that almost all of my workers keep on getting stuck when they walk past their houses and the loggers hut. PLEASE HELP DEVS
- SparrowBlaze · v2.0.3
Honestly I really do love playing this game. It’s fun and I like the freedom you have in building everything. However, the game constantly crashes. I really want to play it but no point when I can only have it open for 2 minutes at a time. PLEASE FIX these bugs.
- Kurophoenix · v2.0.3
Been playing for a while but keeps crashing please fix love the game but sad and frustrated
- crap service bro · v2.0.3
I greatly enjoyed the first one and completed it quickly because it was fun. I was looking forward to the sequel but quickly was disappointed. The second game is not fun at all and is quite boring. Wish I wouldn’t have wasted my money in the first place
- EliasAG · v2.0.3
The Bonfire was a truly great game. Simple, but demanding and planning needed. The sequel is the single biggest example of the first games success ruining the second. Bigger doesn’t mean better. I’ll keep playing the original, thanks. You can keep this garbage.
- Tewbacco the Wookiee · v2.0.3
The game is not saving and loading correctly, forcing me to restart the island every time I begin playing :/
- Keverocks. · v2.0.3
This is a really cool game that starts off as a fun building and resource management sim. At higher levels, it gets confusing, though. For example, earlier in the game when you send your ships out, they’re all engaged in trading missions. Later, though, you suddenly find yourself in a dungeon without any way to retreat or better prepare your workers for those very different kinds of tasks. You *can* plow through blindly and learn by trial and error. However, more in-game documentation—like an info button for each building, resource or task, would make this game much, much better. The writing would also need to be made clearer at that point since what written info is available needs some significant editing. A very good effort overall with lots of replay value so definitely worth $5. To make it a truly great game, though, the devs need to give more clues to the player about how to actually play.
- Spug · v2.0.3
This game is Trash. I love strategy games, and this game started off fine. After numerous buildings proximity/selecting/managing became difficult. Then after 100 nights my food resources went to zero. I had many “manned” buildings that produced food, yet my production stayed at zero. I did what I could to mitigate the issue, but since the food store wouldn’t build back up Half of my population died of starvation, everything went down hill from there. Didn't make sense, maybe a glitch in game? Or designed to be lame who knows. But I deleted it Not worth my time.
- MattByz · v2.0.3
The title says it all. The City Building is great. Love the game but needs a cloud save or a way to export or import the game save file.
- ArmoredTalon · v2.0.3
Love it wish there was more to the game but still love its a good game to help ya wind down at night 🤘🤘
- Shainbakker87 · v2.0.3
This game is awesome but is broken on the Ipad. The animations don’t t update correctly, things randomly disappear, the build screen is randomly missing structures and crafted items. Broken mess. Don’t waste your time. Unfortunate.
- Phlanxsmurf · v2.0.2
Overall, it’s a fun, casual game. However, the problem with the guards running away as soon as certain enemies arrive makes Bonfire II unplayable past a certain point. Until the bug is fixed I probably will not play anymore.
- sjordan729 · v2.0.2
I absolute love this game but as of lately the app has been crashing quite frequently Mali bf the playing experience a bit irritating. Otherwise this is amongst the best game I have ever played!
- Bitizen anonyme · v2.0.2
Super nice and addicting just sad how on android it’s free and on apple you need to pay 5$ but still super nice I love playing
- abedacoolest · v2.0.2
Game is quite fun until you get close to finishing it. Once there your ships will randomly go into the fog and never actually make it to the destination, and your guards at night will always run to the wood line (even with never run from a right and full solar equipped). All In all it’s not bad it’s just not good.
- Aesirschosen · v2.0.2
Hopefully updates to the game will fix this but I can’t play beyond about day 40. The game constantly crashes even with the graphics turned to the lowest setting.
- luvtotravel · v2.0.2
Fun game but crashes all of the time on my ipad5.
- Nappy Violin · v2.0.2
Im too lazy to write a proper review haha! All im gonna say is, if you like simulation/building games this is a MUST!! WORTH EVERY PENNY!!
- shaunE09 · v2.0.2
Very fun and you can tell a lot of care was put into making this 2nd version. The camera can be frustrating at times since it seems to move at inappropriate times, however that is nowhere near as frustrating as the some difficulty balance shortly after hitting day 100. A large enemy can wipe out 8 armored guards in a blink and then new workers do not show up quickly enough to replenish them resulting in a downward spiral that you cannot pull out of. That said it is still a very fun game. I just don’t plan on making it too far past day 100 before having to start over.
- Jaymus · v2.0.2
Great game with an amazing new update. But once you beat the final boss dungeon, nothing happens. Your troops are just stuck in a room and if you exit to city then you have to do the whole fight over again.
- theogswagdaddy · v2.0.1
Game is phenomenal, loved playing it. Made it around 130 days to a pivotal part of the game requiring specific items. However for some reason the AI in the game lost the items at some point in the process of building. The items required were only achievable one way in the game and you can’t get them again. So I was stuck and had to restart. Which is very discouraging.
- LilDao · v2.0.1
I don't see the point of this game. I wish I could get a refund. What a waste of several hours.
- Calion · v1.0.8
Game is really fun and addictive. Some bugs there. Also need some improvements… can’t delete things from carpenter and blacksmith shop. Which makes thing critical. Also ability to save the game in cloud would be a great edition… Hope developers will check the game and make it better. Developers don’t look at the comments. There is no update for this game… there are lots of free game who maintains their games better… $5 is waste if they don’t release any update soon.
- AD Hasnain · v1.0.8
I had tons of fun gathering resources and unlocking new buildings. I ended up beating the game after 2 days of playing which is where my problem arise. I didn’t have anything else to do after I beat the boss monster. If you can implement more ways of exploration or more random events or even adding diseases and such, it would make it more exciting.
- Tranxdgreat08 · v1.0.8
I really liked this game at first. Put a good 10 hours into or so, figuring out how the game worked and how to balance my villagers. But after a few hours you begin to realise how similar every single play through is. The same events happen, at almost the exact same time, every time. There’s not a lot of variety, and once you discover the most efficient methods the game becomes very linear and boring. With that said I loved the game up until that point. But the end game is so excruciatingly boring. Im usually the type of player to see how long my defenses could last etc - but in this game there’s really no point once you’ve built the temple. Im also hesitant to rate it higher since the devs haven’t even updated for over a year. Devs, please update this game!
- Ethanfydfhdhf · v1.0.8
When your town get larger, the game becomes so unstable that it crashes once every 2-3 minutes. With no updates in so long and the game unplayable, they should offer a refund. Buyer beware.
- Im_bored · v1.0.8
Really love this game. 5* well deserved. I do have two suggestions, though. 1) On the save feature, would be nice if it asks you if you’re sure before saving. Too many times I’ve accidentally saved when I didn’t want to because my finger (or hand) was too close to the screen. On an ipad, at least, you don’t need to touch the screen. If you’re hand is too close, it registers. 2) Would be nice if you could “banish” people to remove those with unwanted traits.
- 1971dahjr · v1.0.8
Just got the game and grinded it out to day 60+ trying to build the rest of the archer towers and animal farms and more. I’ve had them placed to get built for a while. Builders only put the wood in and don’t finish it. Can’t seem to figure out why they won’t transfer iron or food into the buildings to finish it anymore. They just go to the loggers camp and say they are depositing resources all day. I am maxed out on iron and food so resources aren’t the problem. I can’t seem to find anyone else with this problem by reading other reviews or trying to look it up on google. Is there something I am missing? Please reach out or explain what I can do to try to fix the problem. Thank you
- Maegan111 · v1.0.8
Although a fun game to pass the time, it is absolutely unplayable due to the constant crashing that happens every minute or so. This is something other users have experienced. I hope the game developers fix this issue sooner than later.
