  • In love with it but…

    I love this game and would absolutely give it 5 stars but one thing that makes the game not quite there is the crafting guide, i can scroll through all the things i can craft in a tab but if i want to switch the tab im viewing i end up throwing all my items into the crafting station making it so i cant switch tabs. If this gets fixed this would be an easy 5 stars
  • Newest addition to my all-time favourite iPad games list

    Downloaded for free, no ads, no in-app purchases necessary. I finally bought a tool belt to support the game seeing as I would pay $15+ for something like this on Steam.

    The game is very fun, surprisingly rich for something with such a simple setup, and continued to pleasantly surprise me with new features as I progressed.

    I look forward to future updates as well as other projects from these devs.
  • A great crafting game that doesn’t stop.

    One of the things that I thought was interesting about this game is about the time that I thought that that was all that we were going to end up doing the game got more interesting, if you’re patient with progressive crafting and waiting to level up. You’ll love this game. This game has great developers who are very much interested in your input and in your feedback. Definitely download this game.
  • Good stuff

    Occasional bugs are squashed by restarting the app. Overall it feels like the depth of a pc crafting game, but takes place entirely from the menu screen. Constantly reorganizing chests, experimenting with combinations, dealing with outsiders, and amassing an empire of high-quality goods and special meals, you will be wasting time in no-time.
    A word of advice, invest. 😎
  • Wow

    Normally when I see a game with this many five star reviews I think paid reviews after reading reviews and playing the game I got to give it five stars been there paying for four days now and I’m still unlocking new recipes the storyline as is fun and the game has challenges like storage and town build and little gambling. There are hits in the storyline that I haven’t even gotten a 5th of the content yet to be reviled. You can buy in game bonuses but you don’t need them unless your very impatient like myself and want the recipe Now. I could go on I say just play and enjoy
  • Sad that it isn’t being updated

    I just stumbled upon this game, even though it is 4 years old and apparently hasn’t been touched in 2 years. I’m sad (see title) because abandoned games will eventually stop working. This is a nearly perfect mobile game!

    I say nearly, because there is a weird bug with the recipe book. But if I exit and restart the game, it goes away. Not ideal. But also not game breaking.

    The game itself, is arguably pointless. You are doing things just to do other things... for no reason. Sounds bad. But it’s not! I play many games on many platforms, in many styles and genres. This is beautifully designed game!

    My only con (other than the book bug) would be that the complexity requires a constant check with the wiki. I find that to be ok, myself. It’s easy to play but nearly impossible to remember how to make X.

    Final words, weird and pointless, but super addictive. Play it while you still can.
  • Five stars except for the odds

    Love the game. Totally fantastic. Until about two days in.

    But your odds just flat out lie, I never, ever, reach the percentages you report to me. 75 percent is more like 50. 90 percent fails at least twice what you expect. Just try it. After a few thousand tests, you’ll see the odds are just a joke.

    And next the odds are just stupid. Fill a jar with water. Fail half the time and lose the jar. I mean, seriously, what the hey? Make ten jars with water means making forty plus jars because you’ll fail to make the jar, fail to make it into ceramics and then fail to fill it, the odds are...stupidly punishing. Sure I can see a tool wearing out, but how does a jar wear out from filling it? That water must be something awesome!

    All in all, a completely great idea with a totally absurd waiting mechanism. There is no fun here, just pure punishment. Go and bang your head on a wall instead. It’s more fun, and you’ll not fail nearly as often.
  • Fun!

    I’m so addicted to this game. I even like the music and I always turn music off when I game. Pros: graphics are cute and suit the game perfectly. Simple mechanics, easy to learn, but requires a bit of strategy and planning to master. Suggestions: gender choice for main character. In storage containers, don’t take up half the space in the square with the container’s name. Make the grid take up the whole container. The colorful outlines are enough to identify containers. I can’t tell what I have with the tiny grids. Also it would help if axes and hammers were shown in closeup. This would make it easier to tell whick tool it was, and easier to differentiate from sticks, arrows etc in the containers. Also, you might want to consider tying the animal you hunt to the weapon size, not just hunting skill. I advanced hunting too quickly, and now I’m at the quest to build the romance hut, but no matter what weapon I give my minion, he only brings big game and I can’t get light fur to complete the quest. Anyway, overall I am having fun and I appreciate your work!
  • Really fun game —

    I downloaded this thinking it would be some crappy, low-effort idle game, but boy was I wrong. There’s so much content and it’s actually very intricately designed. No pop-up ads, just fun gameplay! Also I thought it would be monotonous, but the gameplay is arranged in a way such that you never really get bored. 5/5 stars.
  • I’m playing this 4ever

    This is honestly one of the best games I’ve ever played. I love the complexity of all the recipes and the skill needed to make them. It’s really fun to suddenly find a whole area to discover when I unlock it. I would definitely recommend this app to my friends online, but unfortunately, I don’t have any, but friends or not, I would support a sequel to this game.
