For example, the farm that produces material for rope/paper wouldn't begin production unless i removed the farm and placed it again. Another one that is more persistent is the production of booze. I would come back to the app the next day and see that pioneers weren’t happy because they didn't have enough booze. i would build another farm and think i have it resolved. next day same thing… I began to notice that when i returned to the game after a break their production was halted because they had no available storage. How could that be though if the people don’t have enough? I then noticed that if I tap on the farm it would clear the error and production would resume. This bug was a bit of a dealbreaker for me… I couldn’t progress to the next level bc the Pioneers weren’t happy enough to upgrade. Sad because it had a ton of potential. Im going to check out the sequel… hopefully these bugs were resolved. -- Dustin (tm), 2024-02-09 ### ****- "Love this game" Edit: I had to come back and edit because this game is by far my favorite. I’m on round 3 and it’s every bit as fun as the first time. It’s the right amount of everything. Definitely addictive, but doesn’t distract you *too much* from your daily life. Challenging but not frustrating. The developer is working on a new game and I can’t wait for him to publish it. *************** I’ve only been playing this game for about a week but I’m hooked. Raves: 1- The game play is simple, yet complex. It involves strategy and brain power to manage your resources efficiently. As soon as school starts I will recommend this game to my students. I’d much rather they play this than be on Tik Tok. 2- No ads, no in-game purchases, no subscriptions. I am sick of playing “free” games that require you watch ads. $3.99 is an incredible deal. 3- Community support. The developer has a discord channel and a wiki page for support. I like what the developer is doing. He seems invested in his game and listens to feedback. As soon as I’m done with this review I will be looking to see if he has other games. Cons: I feel like I have to put something, but honestly there aren’t any, other than a suggestion for a feature. It would be nice to have a world map view of your islands and trade routes. Edit: After playing the game for a little while longer, this “con” isn’t feasible. Having this feature would be impossible. I’ll have to get back with you for a real con. I simply cannot think of anything negative to say! -- Michael.Butler, 2024-01-21 ### ***** "Surprising depth and interest" If you’re the type of person that gets a lot of satisfaction out of making optimally efficient systems, this game is for you 😂 This is so fun and requires a nice kind of patience that I enjoy. There are waiting mechanisms built in, you can’t pay to speed them up, and they’re part of the lore and gameplay. There’s no fall off in terms of production when you don’t have the game open. So it can lend itself to an hour or more of tweaking and analyzing your network of islands, redistributing resources - and then maybe 10 minute chunks a couple times in the day, to check in and tweak as needed, with the system you built running along in the background. This is a long-running game, and the only way to speed it up is to get better at it. I’ve been playing for a week and still feel like I’m in the very early stages, getting my first few islands set up, but as I learn my systems get better and my growth gets faster. SO satisfying. Also, play with the music on if you can, the soundtrack is stunning. -- Deannon, 2023-08-16 ### ***** "This is a really great app worth every penny." I really love playing this app. I enjoy the world building that it provides it doesn’t get boring. It actually gets more complex as time goes on as your master more and more skills you can actually really get into building a really diverse world. Well done to the developers! -- ShiriJean, 2023-08-01 ### ***-- "This isn’t a city building idler…" It’s a cleverly disguised puzzle game. You have to selectively build structures nearby other structures in a random-ish map. Almost every building has its own blueprint that is required by or from other buildings. As a casual gamer that loves idlers, builders, clicker games and similar, I should have went with my gut when playing the lite version. This is definitely not for everyone. -- TK_200, 2023-06-24 ### ***-- "It’s ok." The thing is. I don’t know what I am doing. Doesn’t make things clear and after 4 days trying to figure it out. I am disappointed because I still can’t. I don’t know how the trade routes go, I don’t know how to even trade, and gold is very very hard to get. The tutorial was some what helpful BUT not really at same time. It doesn’t have a look here to know how to do things. Suggestion from me? …. A detail tutorial. With at least a place where you can read how to do things. But the good things, I love the concept of the game. And it has potential.. -- ortiz.joanna, 2023-06-21 ### ***** "It’s great" It’s an idle town building game without the in app purchases! One thing I think would be cool is if you could add little people waking around, so it’s more like a town. :) -- Anneish, 2023-06-04 ### *---- "Not for me!" I tried the game. I felt it was a waste of time. -- lirick53, 2023-05-17 ### ***** "Excellent Incremental" Really fun especially with the trade route waypoint system, tons of freedom and opportunity to customize your supply chains and economic empire. -- Melzidek, 2023-03-18 ### ***** "Great city building game!" This reminds me a lot of those old Anno games. The game runs at a good pace, and it's a great value for the price with lots of hours of entertainment. The fact that this game doesn't have paywalls or endless IAPs is phenomenal. I certainly recommend it, and I look forward to future updates as well. -- Gatorman02, 2023-03-17 ### ***** "Anno Mobile" I can’t compliment this game enough. Tobias (dev) charges $3 for the best game I’ve played on iOS since 2007. Tobias could succumb to micro transactions for ships, or to speed time up, or anything else, but he doesn’t. You just have to spend a bit of time to learn the game. For Anno lovers, this is a phenomenal mobile port to satisfy the itch. I only need to check in once a day to monitor routes and production. T5 in one month. Pop crashes not possible with the current base mechanics. Looking forward to updates or a new release. -- Karaya 01, 2023-02-10 ### ***** "Best game ever" So many hours put in to this game -- GGcdxx, 2023-01-31 ### ***** "Great game" Great for playing now and then. No coins or pay to win shenanigans. Loading time of the app could be improved. Or buy a newer device 😁 -- Jeff Jobs, 2022-11-24 ### *---- "Portrait only" Doesn’t support landscape on iPad, making it unplayable -- Max_M, 2022-11-04 ### ***** "Great game!!!" This is a great game but it's pretty chill you're able to jump on play for a few minutes or up to even 30 minutes. only thing I wish this game had was some side quests or boss battles or some PVP to keep you busy on those day you have lots of time. -- Higiliak, 2022-10-29 ### ****- "Glad I tried it" Okay, so I was initially very skeptical of paying for an idle game, but I’m really glad I did. This looks cutesy and simplistic at a glance, and for the first couple of hours it is, but by the time you’ve been playing a few minutes here and there for a week you’ll realize you’re now quite busy and the game mechanics go much deeper than meets the eye. You’ll also see all the mistakes you made staring you in the face and spend the next week or two trying to correct them. For some that will be a bummer, but for the min/max and micromanaging crowd it’s an awesome experience. If you like resource management games, you can’t ask for better on mobile. My criticisms to the dev (I see that you read these)- The tutorial needs expanded a bit. I went an embarrassing amount of time just guessing at battle results before realizing I could scroll through the attack rounds to see who hits who and for how much damage. Also, the best tools for managing input/output of tiles is hidden in the settings menu and turned off by default? Why? Lastly, I know it’s an idle game, but mid-game slows to a crawl if you didn’t get lucky and set up your starting island correctly, which I’m sure many of us did because there’s no way to anticipate just how constrained space will become pretty quickly. Overall a great experience for the price, and the dev seems to be listening to feedback and updating. I say throw your coin at it and give it a try for yourself. -- Dustinfghtf, 2022-10-28 ### ***** "Better than you think!" Well this developer nailed it. This game scratches all the right spots! Its as idle as you need it to be, and i often am playing 30-60 min without needing to wait for a battle or ship delivery. Which is perfect for me! Looks like it will have great replay value too, and with the relatively low purchase cost (and no pay wall at all!), this is probably the best app ive gotten in a long time. Great work! Thoughts on things to consider: a little clearer detail on the trade route tutorial would be good, as well as a better explanation of how to grow gold supplies. Also, i think it would be helpful if when i click on higher level settlers like merchants or paragons, it would show me what buildings they open up. That would help beginners plan. Not a deal breaker at all, and i highly recommend this game :). -- Schnarfburger, 2022-10-13 ### ***** "This ticks all my buttons" It starts out as a simple island management game and scales to a transport/supply chain puzzle. Absolutely recommend. -- lblankenship, 2022-09-11 ### ***** "Fixes the idle genre" This game is wildly addicting and finally scratches that idle itch without any stupid in game currency. No pay to play nonsense like some other games are entirely built upon. This game just requires thought and strategy. Has a splash of Caesar 3 and a mix of other elements. I couldn’t recommend it more!! -- BenO169, 2022-09-01 ### ***** "Thoroughly happy" This game is worth its price. It’s an incremental without the nasty brain rewiring that happens to the player. It’s complex enough to make you think a little, but you don’t have to open Excel to git gud. It’s nice enough to ramp you up at a rate appropriate for the game play. There’s no punishment for forgetting to check in. Your people will stay, your processes will run — you’ll just make less money. And it seems like it doesn’t try to take data from you. Neat stuff. I don’t write reviews often. Developer did good. -- Sjedagjsgskgsd, 2022-08-30 [View all Paragon Pioneers reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Paragon Pioneers Discovered Keywords -
