Legend of Ertugrul

Legend of Ertugrul Review: One Chapter of a Turkish Epic, With Ads

From a Single Tent: Alps, Councils and Side-Scrolling Combat

The listing promises the rise from a single tent to an empire, inspired by true events, in a 2.5D hack-and-slash: fierce combat, alliances, enemies to conquer across treacherous lands. What players describe is broader than a brawler — a July 2026 five-star with three votes found a side-scroller where you talk to villagers and soldiers, ride a horse and attend council meetings, and calls the storyline and graphics great. The screenshots show the alp warriors, a desert caravan raid, a burning camp battle and a map of Anatolia to explore. The audience is the show's: reviews ask for Ertuğrul's alps by name, for his wife and son, for the Ahlat and Bilecik chapters. Yeti Games — Yeti Bilişim of Turkey — lists eight languages on the App Store, English and Turkish on a Steam page marked To be announced, and updates often: 1.0.2 in June, 1.0.7 in late July, 1.0.10 on September 12, 2026, each labelled bug fixes.

Too Short, Too Hard, and a Silver Counter Stuck at Zero

Twenty-three Google Play reviews, all since June 2026, run 17 five-star to 3 one-star, and even the five-stars carry the same complaint. The most-voted, six votes from July 27, calls the graphics amazing and the game way too short — one chapter — and a July 21 review with five votes is waiting for the migration quest to unlock. Difficulty is the second theme: a four-vote July review cannot play daily because enemies are too hard to defeat and asks for easy, medium and hard options, and an August 14 one-star says the same in five words. The bugs are specific: silver coins that stay at zero after purchases in a June 1.0.3 review, lag and low sensitivity in June and September, and a September 7 report that when an ad opens the Play Store, coming back restarts the game. A September 1 five-star asks for fewer ads, balanced enemies and Google cloud save. The App Store shows three ratings at 5.0.

Free With Ads, Gold to $29.99, and Location Tracked

Both stores carry advertising and in-app purchase badges. The App Store itemises the shop: gold from 50 for $1.99 to 1,000 for $14.99, 30,000 silver for $6.99, and bundles up to 30,000 silver plus 700 gold and resources for $29.99; Google Play's range is $0.99 to $26.99 per item. An August 2026 reviewer asks for a way to convert silver to gold, which suggests gold is the currency that matters.
