  • Addictive, But...

    The variety of items and resources combined with interactions with mobs and the map gives Don’t Starve endless gameplay hours. I love being able to personalize the map to adjust the difficulty in different aspects of the game. For the most part the controls are smooth and functional.
    I do have one complaint however; you can’t listen to anything while playing this game! I appreciate the effort put into the sound effects and music but the app should not decide what I can and can’t listen to. Though I enjoy this app and have spent WAY to much time playing it, I am quickly deterred when it turns off my podcast or music!

  • Good game but a couple bugs

    Great game. I love Don't Starve, it’s an amazing survival rogue-like. However, there is a bug that I’ve come across several times that is quite annoying.
    Sometimes a bug occurs in which the game won’t let you preform any actions except for using the joystick. It most recently occurred after I crafted a hammer. When I tried to craft, the craft menus won’t open. Similarly, the player’s inventory wouldn’t open either. The map and pause button won’t work as well when that happens. The only way to be able to do anything again is to restart the app, but that causes me to lose some progress in the current game. If that bug was fixed, it’d easily be a 5 star rating.

  • Most addicting survival game

    This game is the most addicting game I’ve played and is one of the best games I’ve played. At first it will be challenging but you will get the hang of it and it gets addicting. But it does get frustrating sometimes when dying or can’t find the food or resources you need. For Beginners don’t have the reign of giants on and if you want you can just explore the world with the No sweat mode. If you think that most of the games on the AppStore get old this game won’t to me it is worth the money and I highly recommend getting this game.

  • As good as on Steam. Worth every penny!

    I originally bought this game on Steam, and after an hour of playing, got used to the controls for the iPad. Game is still ridicuously addictive, I love the added storyline. 10/10.
    My only complaint is that sometimes I accidentally attack something or set it on fire... kiting an enemy is also nearly impossible now. Can’t kite the tree guardians anymore, for instance. Still, considering this version of the game is built for a touchscreen, still awesome. The replayability of Don’t Starve is ludicrous.

  • Fun, but...

    This games fun. Seriously. But it gets kind of redundant, and honestly, this game would be way better if it had multiplayer. Even if you had to pay for it. You guys could probably even triple your money if you added that. Even if it only supported two people! Because hey, almost any game is fun to play with other people, and that includes this. I got this over a year ago or so, and i deleted it eventually. (And i don’t like deleting apps i paid for/got in app purchase(s)) But if I found out they added multiplayer, even if it was like five dollars for it, I would immediately re-download this and get it. Three stars, lost one for the game being really repetitive, and another for no multiplayer. If you fix those issues, then I’m sure my ratings will change.

  • Solid game, worth the price

    I must say, having played this on console before, I didn’t expect this game to port so well! If your a fan of games like terraria and Minecraft but want more of a challenge, then this is a must have.

    Something to note, this game is HARD. If you don’t prepare for winter ( or sometimes summer) you WILL die. This game is not for casual players and unless and really like a challenge then I recommend at least looking a few things up. My only complaint is that the multiplayer edition isn’t here. But don’t starve is a massive enough game to not need that for years and years to come. Overall, if you like a good challenge and got the time to spend, try this game

  • Regarding touchscreen

    I am loving the game and all its glory, but my one gripe for it is the touchscreen controls. It does its job, but when trying to navigate the woods, there’s a most likely chance for you to stop to collect or cut some trees down for you to drag on an area of land to start walking again since pressing anywhere on the screen to continue forth gets halted by the trees which triggers your character to comment on what you tapped. This is very minor, and it could be just me, but I would suggest maybe a pad for you to walk on the screen (if you can afford the space).

  • Opening map with a controller is annoying

    Using a controller is almost necessary, especially when fighting, but to open the map you have to click the shoulder buttons simultaneously.

    The problem is that it turns the camera either left or right and again when closing it. This makes it extremely difficult and frustrating to navigate and I end up running in circles.

    The easiest solution is to just make the map turn on button release, instead of button press. That or let us change the button mapping.

  • Great game but could use some extra things

    This game is amazing at first I thought this game was to be a really boring game and I was wasting my money on it but oh boy!! I was so wrong this game is so amazing and exciting at first I died a lot but each time I tried again I got better and better so if you are looking for a game worth your money don’t starve is perfect for you, but one more thing is that can you please add a multiplayer mode because that will make the game even better😜
