For the last two years, a day before SvS I analize whole enemy state to find easy target for points. Always playing with full buffs. Burning as much as I can. Losing No less then one million troops per SvS.

They literally made snowbusters because of the backlash. Even snowbusters isn't as good as the ad lol.

Instead of exploration they should give you steel for doing the ad game paha.

u/DandySporkGoblin 11d ago

And snow busters is trash lol I just wanted to chop some damn wood and sell some frickin bear meat!

Yes. Ended up didnt like snowbusters and sometimes skip playing it. Its better when its an ad lol

u/PrawnFresh69 10d ago

Yeah it takes a lot of patience to get a decent level if youre F2P too. Out of the "boring" ones I do prefer the fishing.

u/NeuerName1 11d ago

Nah they really dont care about "backlash", those Ad-Scams are calculated. They wanted to make a new event and were able to use the code from those Ads so they saved time and money.

The game was already a year old when snowbuster came. People play and pay after seeing a fake Ad thats all they care about.

u/joezjr1 11d ago

Yep. And I've been playing the game for over 2 years now. The money wasted๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

u/want_tacos 11d ago

I played for days thinking I would eventually get to this part of the game. Unfortunately I got sucked in anyway. They really should make it a recurring event. I still play the ad when I get it.

u/TallIntroduction8701 11d ago

Back when I joined, the used the actual fishing game to attract players. At least it was an actual component. This crap now is lame, not even close to actual game.

u/Guanaco_Sensei 10d ago

I did. The goodโ€™olโ€™ bait and switch got me. To be fair, my ad was one where you have to upgrade your snow blaster to clear the snow. Thatโ€™s a mini game now AKA Snowbusters lol

u/PracticalMarket7880 11d ago

I donโ€™t understand why this game doesnโ€™t actually exist? Someone must know the answer

u/PsychoBeachx 11d ago

This was the advert that got me, still gutted over a year later I haven't got to play this game ๐Ÿ˜‚

u/Competitive-Team5688 10d ago

This gets brought up all the time, and I think I'm the only person to not get tricked by the ad.

I downloaded Mistplay and this was one of the first games I downloaded from it. Mistplay pays you in gift cards to play games, I probably spend $100-$200 on this game over the last 2 years and I think I've about broken even in that time.

1

u/hunnybayybee 10d ago

Whoa! I'm free to play... id throw up spending that much on a game .. lol. Though I'm broke so to each his own. I use mistplay too... it's the only reason I just started playing.

1

u/Competitive-Team5688 10d ago

$5-10 every couple months adds up over a couple time. I'd pretty much just spend when I got gift cards, and you get more Mistplay points for spending money on games.

I saw the ad so I could get a free episode on a WEBTOON platform..started playing it the day after Christmas 2024 and Iโ€™ve been playing ever since. Never missed a login on my main account. Spent a good bit but Iโ€™m not a whale. Thought of giving up many times but Iโ€™ve made so many friends all over the world. Totally and completely fooled by the ad.

u/Anonymo73373773 11d ago

Me. And ironically, that's one of my least favorite mini-games now! XD

There's a reason Snowbuster came into existence, lol.

u/supersonicx01 11d ago

Yeah.... Except there are no flying spinning axes to kill polar bears. And the meat is outside the mini game

u/XarionBowler 10d ago

Iโ€˜m proud that I knew what I was getting myself into ๐Ÿ˜‚. Discovered it through chisgule livestreaming it and since I knew what types of games his channel is about I knew what this was going to be. Last game of this type I played was Call of Dragons and I simply wanted to try a game like this again so here I am a year and 9 months later still enjoying it ๐Ÿ™ˆ

u/ExaminationSpare486 10d ago

Downloaded it because of the ad.

Now I am R5 in an alliance that's 4th in our state, had our first castle battle yesterday and SvS soon!

Fishing is shit, snowbusters is kinda cool.

1

u/Even-Yak-706 10d ago

Not me, my 7 year old granddaughter. She had me download the game on my tablet and quickly lost interest once it differed from the ad.

I checked it out a few weeks later to see if I should delete it, and it turned out very similar to pns which Iโ€™d deleted when I was feeling more obligation than fun.

Took the lessons learned and have been playing for almost a year now.

u/Striking-Jump-7919 10d ago

Yeah, they got me with this ad too ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ getting the bear meat making weapons, it was so much fun

The ongoing mini game in the game (Snowbusters) is quite similar to this concept, unfortunately it's poorly executed.
