I recently heard about this game again because I think a new expansion or major update was released, and it seems to have been quite successful judging by the number of active players. Although I never got to play the base game, what I saw in the new trailer didn't look bad at all. I like that if you want, you can spend a good lot hours building a big base
Yes, there was a recent massive update driving up their numbers again.
I've been having a blast so far. There are so many quests I can't keep up with them lol.
I now have so much land after a few upgrades to build a single base on and another 7 I can build elsewhere it's kind of crazy.
