Comments on Forge Ahead for Android

★★★★★ Great game but can you plz program it to not have the customers come back and tell me they failed or succeeded cause its annoying thinking that I'm gonna actually have a paying customer when really it's a winer.

★★★★★ The game makes a good time killer, but if the place where the swords are sold was a bit more like a shop than a white box then that would be nice.

★★★★★ Its offline and I can build any sword from metals its very good

★★☆☆☆ Nice concept but even paying for the no ads you still get ads for upgrading stuff which is still ridiculous

★★☆☆☆ I like the way to get resources, but I would like to regect certain resources like tin and aluminum instead of having to deal with the way it impacts the color and quality of my sword. Maybe have the mining separate from the forging. Then pick the resource you want to use out of the ones you have. Also, I would like to see more of the designs and more swords. Other than that it's the best sword crafting game I've seen. I have not seen an update for the game since I downloaded it.
