Ye I was wondering the same thing, multiplayer was main reason i bought this game, tries to play in different times of day, and there where max 10 player, which I didnt event find in any of lobbies, except one time.

Maybe multiplayer is having some problems, I dont believe that no one is playing, total maches counter every day gets bigger only by 10battles ;////////

Swords and Sandals III had a *MUCH* larger player base being a Flash game on thousands of games websites and portals, there were literally millions of plays of the game, so the chances of finding someone to battle with were high. Immortals has sold well, but not amazingly, and so you find the total player base is much smaller just based on the total number of Steam players who have bought the game ( over a longer period of time too ) .

When you see the number of players online, that is correct - but often they are in fights, in the shops, and not hanging round the lobby. So it can be tough to find a game for sure.

However, I'm putting the finishing touches on the Android build as we speak, and then the iOS version will be released, and the game supports cross platform multiplayer - we should see a decent influx of new players in the weeks/month ahead.

The multiplayer is stable so I think once the Android / iOS players arrive you will find more matches!

also could you please add more interaction in multiplayer, perhaps tag matches it would be sick to have let's say 1v2 against one "arena champion" that's just a player with higher level

At this stage there are no plans to expand upon multiplayer, and I can't develop the game forever, you have to as a developer at some point say "It's done, the game is finished".

Multiplayer was always intended as a 'bonus' mode in addition to the main game. Something like that what you suggested would be cool but just beyond the scope of the game, especially given there are not many players playing multiplayer - but maybe if I ever do any DLC!

yeah i can imagine multiplayer would be alive if only there was some incentive to leveling up there, like in singleplayer people mostly get absurd stats then convert into multi with already maxed characters that have inflated stats cause of the bonus attributes you get by save scumming until you get what you want, if people played multiplayer only more would probably try to fill the lobby and progress with it but as it stands...yea

l don't know why but with my most characters l can log in to the server but one of my characters for like 2 hours l try to login to multiplayer and always gives me the "unable to connect to server shortly try again" before when it happened l was able to log in but now it repeated dunno why this happens any idea or someone went through this problem?
With my other chars l can just this one.

Also l read on Google play store some people have the same problem.

Now l opened another character after 1 hour you get disconnected and same problem occurs unable to make connection to the server shortly try again.

Just for anyone reading this - I'm investigating the issue with reconnection issues and hope to have a fix in the coming days/weeks. Apologies for the problem, its intermittent so hard to track down but I'll get onto it!

Much appreciated because l enjoy playing this also.
l wanna make crown vip purchase but for some strange reason it says you need to log in to make this purchase
buy when l launch l clearly see on top of the screen welcome it says and play store gamepad symbol but it doesn't see and say you need log in to plat store

Okay fixed it after l launched it from store application.
Only server reconnect problem remains for my main character multiplayer remains.
Fingers crossed
