Its gone down hill
I started to play a little under a year ago. It was fun, didnt need money to do anything with; however, now if you want to do anything it needs money. On top of that the glitches are more frequent then they used to be. You either get unexpected errors, you loose your troops or gain troops, dragon goes missing. You have to wait a day before you hear anything from the devs, no matter what time you send them mail. Even then you might never hear from them.
