  • Extremely frustrating

    I love this game. I really do. But after playing the Runaway version for years, trying to play this version is an exercise in frustration and disappointment. You do not allow an appropriate amount of opportunities to get Flutterbucks. You constantly offer visiting butterflies available, for 1 hour, that consistently cost more flutterbucks that are in the account. In the Flutter version, I had the opportunity to decide if I wanted to buy some in order to get the butterfly, but you have failed to provide an alternative other than trying to spin a wheel that will only give you 15 flutterbucks (and 25 from the glowbug one a day- it is rarely available when I need it as there is only 1hr to get the butterfly)
    The garden events are almost impossible unless you are able to sit with your phone and log in every two hours. I do not know many people who can dedicate that kind of time to a game.

    What used to be a nice, relaxing game with pretty butterflies has been turned into an aggravation.

    Please consider adding more opportunities to get flutterbucks.
  • Love this game!!! Only 1 issue

    So firstly i love this game i originally had the normal flutter butterfly game and well it was alright it just wasnt my thing none of my family would join me because it was to much work so i left the game. And now with this Netflix game my family joined me! And they love it!!!

    The only issue i have is with the butterfly money its great and all but its hard to get money in the game. you can do quests and stuff but you need the butterfly money for almost everything.
    im not the only one who needs more money almost all reviews say the same thing. I know things wont change but i thought i should leave a review :)
  • I would love to rate higher but

    There is a weird glitch that closes the app after 1 or 2 minutes and then you have to sign back into Netflix to play so I can’t even progress in the game but hopefully you guys can fix it because it looks interesting
  • beautiful game but needs work

    I wish the developers would improve this game because it's a brilliant concept and so aesthetically appealing. But as a game for relaxation, I would either specify or improve some of its frustrating elements. For example I've lost two butterflies already on missions. No mention of their loss, it just acts like a butterfly was never sent, and that beautiful addition is even removed from the record in your journal! As already mentioned the somewhat nagging beefly never provides anything better. There are just a few nagging issues that I am sure the developers can easily improve for a long awaited updated version.
  • Crash

    Really enjoyed this game til it crashed and i lost ALL my progress! At least it was free thru netflix. Will not try again.
  • Paradise :(

    It seems like I’ve fed my adult beefly a million times and it never gives me paradise flowers. At this rate I think the paradise set of butterflies is only for people who have the patience and consistency to play for years... With so little gameplay in general I think I will lose interest soon. I also would like to have a way of keeping track of who gifted me so I can gift them in return. It’s a beautiful game though.
  • Paradise & Amigo attraction flower problem

    This game is wonderful but there’s two things that make it a bit frustrating. My beefly is fully grown and giving me the exact same gifts as when it was a baby. There’s no “better” gifts if you feed it more & make it grow like it said it would, and i’ve probably only gotten one paradise flower from it.
    Also, i’ve been sending gifts to a couple friends back and forth every day for over a month now and i still have yet to get an amigo attraction flower from any. ):
    This makes it hard to get any butterflies in both Paradise and Amigo set, and i’d really love to be able to collect the whole set if made possible.
  • Nice game

    My 5 year old and I each use our own profiles for our own butterfly forests. We like it. But please fix some of the typos. Like “dandylion” for the Mourning Cloak. But it’s correct for the Blue Hookwing. Do you think we don’t notice these things. And it glitches. My son sends me gifts but some times they never appear in my forest. But he gets credit for sending one. Another thing, it would be great if yes, there were more flutter bucks, but also great if there were new goals added with more rewards. I do not mind working for the flutter bucks so create some new rewards in the Goals section and let us work!
  • Nearly impossible to progress

    I love this game and have found myself very invested as it is relaxing and beautifully designed. I am struggling very much to maintain my interest as I am now about a month in and cannot progress without massive amounts of flutterbucks and no way to obtain them. I often spend hours on the game but still cannot earn enough flutterbucks to make a difference. I think the daily 25 needs to be closer to 200 to make the game enjoyable, or allow for conversion of honeydew.
  • I love this game!

    I’m an adult with anxiety and this game really helps me calm down. The butterflies are detailed and beautiful and the caterpillars are so cute too. I would be so excited if you came out with more games like Flutter too. While I enjoy your other games, I am not a fan of pretending to pet dogs and cats or releasing bird/fish away. Flutter is perfect because you can collect, learn, and grow your sanctuary with minimal pointless tapping, and I’d love to do this with more types of fauna in different environments. Don’t hesitate to download it if you’re a nature lover! I have some suggestions for the developers below and hope to see improvements soon but either way I will keep playing because it brings me a lot of joy! Thanks for considering my feedback:

    1) The Netflix version doesn’t rely on ads or purchases which is nice but also limiting. The flutterbucks system needs to be modified for this version so that everything costs significantly less. The 25 bucks/day we are given is not enough to pay for “hurrying”, buying flowers, laying eggs, upgrading pollens, fertilizing the garden, etc. Everything is so expensive. It becomes really difficult to progress and manage my play time efficiently. If I didn’t absolutely love collecting the butterflies in the game, I probably would have lost interest by now. This game should be enjoyable for users who like to play for a longer time once a day too, not just people who can keep playing frequently throughout the day.

    2) Since you can’t watch ads, the snail can only be accessed every few hours, which is again limiting and only rewards players who can keep coming back to play throughout the day. To make this worth it, the rewards should be greater overall with more flutterbucks, special attraction flowers, and high amounts of pollen. They should be bundled together so you get a combo of all three each spin. And the rewards for your first spin of the day should be much better than later spins.

    3) Visually, though it’s beautiful, it’s quite distracting on a small phone screen. In Starlight it’s much easier to see everything because the darker background gives more contrast. I love the chaos of the butterflies flying around, but when there’s clouds of pollen, little bugs, gifts, flowers, dandelions, and petals, it becomes hard to notice things. Especially when attraction flowers pop up they are difficult to find and I often get confused by the decorative flowers. I would rather just only get frog treats because they are easier to spot.

    4) We should be able to give at least 10 free gifts a day, or one free gift/day to all of our friends. There’s no point in charging 2 flutterbucks for people to give each other a twig. It’s frustrating and de-incentivizes the social element of the game.

    5) Please give attraction flowers (or frog treats) more often with better flowers. It’s frustrating how infrequently they show up, and how often I keep getting Aztec and Common flowers when I have so many new sets of rarer butterflies left to collect. Missions should give better rewards too. It’s frustrating sending out a butterfly for 8 hours just to get a leaf. I have plenty of unused storage spots already.

    6) Please update the daily deals. The attraction flowers you can buy with flutterbucks are not even discounted at all. And you can only buy two with pollen every 24 hours and they’re usually just average flowers. The bargain beetle’s deals are also way too expensive and rarely worth it. This goes back to my first point in this review that everything needs to cost less flutterbucks because the amount we are given is simply not enough.

    7) It would be awesome if there was a way to apply “Not” to any 100% attraction flower. For example if I placed a 100% Aztec flower with “Not” applied to it, then it guarantees that I would get any region other than Aztec. It would be really useful to apply to size and Common flowers too.
