Leave a Review The Trail
Love it... buts needs some fixes!
First and foremost, I’m loving this game! If you have ever wanted to dive deep into what life was like decades ago, this is the game for you! For some it may be slow, as you are walking so progress takes a while, but I think that there is a more satisfactory payoff for finally gathering everything you need.
On the downside, I’m finding that the game doesn’t fit on my phone screen (iPhone XR), and therefore half of the time I can’t read, see, or grab things that I need to. Please fix this game developers! I am addicted already but am getting quickly frustrated by the game sizing problem! Another thing that I can personally would like to see changed is that when you are trying to gather a certain number of items for a quest, let’s say the feather quest for example, I am finding that there are very few quest items in sight and so I am having to go through 3+ camps, along with watching ads, in order to gain enough of the quest items to complete the quest. I would like to see either a rise in numbers of quest items you come across, or another way of gaining these items, outside of buying from the other travelers. If you guys can make these changes, I think that you game totally deserves a 5 star rating!Show lessSFoxGamer1719
This is one of my favorite games!
I have this game on both my iPad and cellphone, and I love it. It’s very interactive, and once you reach eden falls, you can explore to different countries, which I love. For example, you can travel all the way to India! The farther you go, the better special clothing there is to find from that area. Yes, you buy this special clothing with favours. However, once you reach eden falls and complete your daily tasks, you can get up to 20 favors a day. This includes you daily awards. You can get daily rewards even before you reach eden falls. Some people that are writing these reviews aren’t correct. I am a free player and don’t buy anything with real cash, and I am still really successful. If you try, you can be a pro at this game, and it’s easy once you get into playing. Yes, the trails get longer as you go on, but that is the point. Overall, this is a great game, I love how interactive it is, and the graphics are amazing, and I love the quests and the little red birds.

It was fun, but . . .
I downloaded this game when it first came out & fell in love with it. It was challenging & the resources needed to advance were plentiful. However, I ended up in a dead town. I was the only person doing anything & there was no one to share with. THEN the developers sold the game to some entity that took it to the gaming console level and they completely stopped updating the app. By this time, I was finished & deleted the app. About a year later, I realized how much I missed the game, so I reloaded the app & started all over again. The first thing I noticed was the resources were not as plentiful & it took FOREVER to complete a quest. The good thing was I was in a town where folks actually shared! Then, scavengers started hopping in & out of town, stealing from shelves, blocking warehouse crates with 1 or 2 items, & leaving, so the town died. Oh, and did I mention that the developers have now COMPLETELY abandoned the app? This is so sad because it was a great game. It’s a shame the developers got greedy. Apple needs to remove this app from their Editors’ Choice so new players don’t get pulled into a dead game.Show lessTeamBlanton2006
Awesome! Game!
This game is so fun!!! I named my character Mary, if you want to try to find me. It’s basically, when the USA was forming. You walk a long distance, to get to a campsite, not a big place where you can use the bathroom, or such. You never need to used the restroom! But it’s a great game, I have no glitches. But, I’m not very far into the game, actually. I haven’t even got to a town yet! But I heard they are fun. I luv how every time you come off of a camp site, it shows you, how many feet until you get they’re, how many feet you’ve been walking, and it tells you, something you get to do, at a town! Great game. I love how your clothes wear out, and you need food. You can cut down trees, and even throw a rock at a bunny, to kill it, to get food! Oh! You can trade! Other players might have some thing you need for your quest, and you can get rid of your stuff, and get money! Oh! And they’re is quest! This lady with birds in her hat, a bird that flys around with you, and she is so quick, to the next camp sight! You will find out, what she does, with my clues, and the games clues. You can also craft. Crafting is fun! You can make, clothes, a wood bird, tools, and so much more! Hope you think about getting this amazing game! Bye!Show lessgoody bads
Awesome! If you’re a millionaire...
So, at first I saw the (meh) reviews. But I thought of giving it a chance. The game is adventurous and fun. However, it gets harder by the second to earn chits (the in-game currency). There is a point where you are stuck at a campsite and can’t leave because you don’t have enough money to pay the ferry. Now, it gives you the option to go backwards in order to earn money, but I can’t because I don’t want to lose all my progress as I am constantly collapsing. There is little food, and at this point, you just start losing money. If you want to pay the ferry with another currency (not chits) there are Favours. This is extremely hard to get. The only way to get it is by daily login, and paying with your real life hard-earned money. Obviously, I’m not going to pay real dollars for a mobile game. So I’m deciding to remove the app from my phone, because as of right now, I see no further enjoyment from it. Please consider making this game less expensive. I see a lot of potential in this game, I enjoyed it at first. But consider what I said above.
Final rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of five stars.Show lessKevinlovinarsenalfc
Enjoying the game
I really like this game, everything from its whole concept to the little details of gameplay that often surprise me. I do wish the developers would update more often and work on making the game better. I’ve read some reviews about what people think could make the game more fun, but I’d like to suggest ways that would make the game run smoother and more efficiently. 1) the chat room (saloon) tends to be glitchy, often lagging, sometimes deleting conversations, and overall not very type-friendly. Hoping the chat room can be run a little smoother. 2) if I decided to give another player something, I would have to leave it on a shared shelf, open for anyone to take. I don’t like that, since it likely to be stolen. I wonder if some sort of trade system could be set up? 3) crafting, one of my favorite parts of the game but so tedious! If a player has enough material to craft multiple copies of a certain item, why not let them choose how many they want to craft and then craft all at once? It’s more efficient AND it allows players to use their math skills (if they chose to preserve certain amounts of material)Show lessZFondue
I never leave reviews but I need to address one thing
To the players who say it’s a pay to play game are wrong. I’m not saying it’s easy but it’s not very hard either. I am in an established town, have over 300,000 chits, a dog, clothes that never expire and a property value of over 400,000 yet I have not put one cent of my own money into it. You can get up to 17 chits in a day if you do the daily tasks, which are not very hard. Yes there are a few glitches but for me they are few and far in between, maybe it’s your phone? All I can say is you must give this game a chance. You will not end up in an established town right off the bat but if you get the stagecoach, you can move into a better town, like I did. Or establish your own. I love this game and to the developers, I give you mad props for an awesome game. I look forward to what else you come up with and only hope you continue growing this game.Show lessmagpie711
Awesome, but...
I love this game it is the only one of its kind! I just have some problems, there are way too many bugs. Not like the things that you find out on the trail, but really bad glitches. For one when I upgrade my house it finishes but still has the curtain on the outside or says it isn’t done. Also I’m in the middle of a glitch right now where I just crafted something and now it’s stuck in mid air and I can’t use it. ON THE OTHER HAND, it’s so much fun and honestly I can’t stop playing! Most games lose my attention after a day or so, but this has kept my attention for three whole days! It’s so great, every time you think you’ve seen it all something better happens! Also I wish we could send chits home, because my sister told me their suffering and all I could say back was “oh btw I’m so rich!”. Like what the heck, I can’t give them some of my fortune or something?!? I was also wondering if some of the “objectives” are even possible like find my partner or raise a family? One more thing before I go back to crossing the Prairie River, I wish you could friend people. Like if my real brother had a account I wish I could friend them or something. Anyway I got to go repair my shirt, so BYEEEEEE!Show lessLittleTigeress
Love it! Two major suggestions...
I love this game!!
However - what do all these item appearance codes mean, once they’re in storage?!?! Sometimes something is ‘shimmery’, items are surrounded by a different color sort of halo outline, or an item has like a furry white cloud behind it.
For the life of me, I cannot figure out what these markers mean! There’s nothing in any of the in-game menus that I can find that explains it, either. Please, please, add some sort of guidance about this feature.
Also, It would be great if the recipe for a crafted item was included in its info even before it is unlocked. Likewise, once a trail item is in a person’s inventory, it would be great if the info for that item included which craft recipes required it. - or maybe a second tab inside that info descriptor that showed a picture of each crafted item it was used to create, once a player was able to craft it.Show lessjeelli05
5/5
To developers and other players
All of these reviews saying it’s a pay to win, or that it is to hard or easy are wrong. First off, the game is just perfect. It’s not hard but it’s not easy. Second, it is not at all pay to win. I have my own town, almost fully upgraded, I have a dog, 200,000$ chits and I have not paid a single penny. It’s a great game, but I do have some suggestions. 1) I think you should make a multiplayer mode where you can make an online game, but you can decide whether you want off or on line. 2) I think you should add so you do more interactive stuff with players, like having a family, and getting married. 3) I also think you need to add more animals. And 4) I think you should add so you age, and technology gets more advanced, like guns, and chariots, e.t.c. Besides that, it’s overall an amazing game, great cartoony style. 5/5. Totally recommend to other players looking for a game to play that has nearly unlimited gameplay.Show lessAtomicBlastroid
