Paragon Pioneers

I’ve experienced a couple persistent bugs related to production. 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.

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!
