I, I am looking for a decent game of said type where you do not have to buy gems or crystals to progress. I would also like it to have in game chat and the ability to be part of an alliance/group that you can invite your friends to join.
It does not matter if you have to pay for the app initially when downloading, but from experience games that require u to buy gems are very expensive.
I have been playing kings empire now for a few months and have spent too much money on it.
Does anybody know of any games like this?

Sorry, I guess I should maybe have said RTS...lol
