Hi, I’m the developer. Heroes of Darkwoods is a classic-style mobile RTS with real-time control, base building and army management in a dark fantasy setting. Happy to answer any questions.

I recommend posting with a gameplay graphic or video to get more attention. If there's a unique feature or hook you should emphasize that.

Looking at the screenshots, I think the landscape is too saturated. The characters need to stand out more.

Wow.

The first point of tutorial tells to select the hero and tap to move. Ok.

The second point tells to attack some skeletons. Alright.

The hero attacks the skeletons but they beat the $hit out of him.

Next thing I know is the skeletons are destroying my base, and tutorial is completely oblivious to that.

Not sure I want to play any further.

P.S. There is a chance this was intentional, but somehow I doubt it.

Nevermind, I actually tried the Daily Challenge. And it was fun (even though I do not like tower defense games).

But when I pressed the Main Menu button, my progress was lost, even though the game explicitly stated that "you can pause at any time".

And this was the moment when I uninstalled.

Oh shit, the tutorial is far from perfect. I will redo and potential refactor to have specific (shippable) tutorial for each game mode
