Comments on Run An Empire for Android

★★★★★ Incognito · Apr 24, 2026
Really good game, the UI is really done well, I did wish that it would have a pop-up warning on your first raid that you need Internet. I accidentally lost 60 gold because of that mistake. I also thought it would be cool if other players could see your base of operations, and place a castle there. If a player managed to take your castle it would give the attacker more coins than a normal castle, and would force the player who owns the castle to lose a percentage of their resources.
★★★★☆ Eric · Mar 13, 2026
I completed the 40K on foot, only to be flagged for cheating. This is wrong—thier systems logged the walk wrong, and I was called a cheater by the app. I check my Google Maps timelines, and they have the walk logged. It said I would not be able to keep a 9 minute per kilometer pace for a 40k. That is much slower than a marathon pace for running. Very disappointing. Was excited to get result when run finished, only to be tag as cheating was annoying. Maybe have a secondary validation on something
★★★★☆ Yahanan Xie · Oct 23, 2022
Finally! Strata integration! How about Google/Android "Health Connect" since you integrated "Apple Health"? "Health Connect" is the official "Apple Health" of Android. It's beneficial, you don't have to worry about integration with every smartwatch and platforms, like "Apple Health", "Health Connect" by Android/Google will handle it all for you.

One star, all of my progress are gone when I try to load my old account, what a trash, so you devs are saying that my past efforts are useless? What a drag pft, I recommend to old players that don't install this game again, your progress was wasted.
★☆☆☆☆ HannaH I. · Mar 11, 2023
New update. Do not forget to mention that people without subscription now have to watch an advertisement to finish an activity. Why don't alliance members passes over a hex stack, now it is like I am fighting my own friends over a hex. We made an alliance to cooperate. Also, I miss some of the mechanics from the earlier game, like choosing between coins and xp. Now the coins icon just means xp? IDK it's ok but it could be better

2024 UPDATE Come back to this in our new location to find it paywalled. Did my first raid only to be forced to watch an ad or join premium. Uninstalling. 2021 Great so far! Only been playing a couple of days but so far so good. Living in a village it's a little challenging to get enough tiles to play on as only the tiles closest to the roads are accessible, the rest are private property, but it should be enough to be able to keep playing. Love the format and the idea.
★☆☆☆☆ J H · Jan 13, 2024
Aside from the game locking you up when you level up (despite pro sub) the main issue I'm having is the game not splitting people into class. I currently have some fool changing his routine specifically to run marathons around my home area when I'm just starting out. It's demoralizing, and I'm glad I cancelled the sub. App can go in the bin with the Stride app, which is where the other player is running. I thought this was more casual due to actual game, but it's the same data shared across apps.
