After their major update they basically ruined the game. I have no idea what is the point of the game anymore besides trying to spend heaps of money instead of spend time to farm. Boring now and quit what a shame developer ruined the game **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for your feedback. We apologize if the changes to the selling mechanics in the latest update have been confusing. We have already planned improvements to optimize the guide systems and tutorial notices to make things much clearer soon. We appreciate your patience as we work on making the game easier to navigate! ### 4/5 — Game recovery *2026-07-31* While I’m not the biggest fan yet of the new version of this game, I’ve let it start growing on me. I’d lost my original account & all my previous progress, and somehow they were able to recover it, which I am very grateful for. I do like the Mystic Isle feature game - I hope that’s a permanent fixture. But, I’m finding the process to obtain gold tools a lengthy & complicated process; that’s the biggest drawback that needs an overhaul. Otherwise, still enjoying it. **Developer response:** Hello! We are deeply sorry for your sad experience with the v2.0 update and the loss of your progress. Regarding lost progress, please check if you are logged into your original Apple ID/Game Center/Facebook account. If your account still doesn't load, please email your old Game ID or username to animalland@boooea.com so our team can help you recover it! Furthermore, we have heard the feedback regarding crafting, selling limits, and gem demands, and are actively preparing balance updates to make gameplay smooth and enjoyable again without forcing spend. Thank you for loving our game, and we hope to welcome you back! ### 3/5 — Already played *2026-07-18, version 2.0.3* Already played ### 3/5 — Bug des minis jeux *2026-07-03* Le jeu en lui même est pas mal. J’aime les minis jeux proposés , surtout trou de ferme et tri d’animaux. Sauf qu’il y a de gros bugs qui m’ont fait perdre énormément de diamants ! Le trou de ferme plusieurs fois 90 diamants et même parfois plus et au final je finis le mini jeu et il ne me met pas en gagnante malgré avoir avalé tous les fruits. Puis tri d’animaux ou pareil ayant dépensé 90 diamants un des animaux est bloqué et je fini par perdre car impossible de finir…. J’ai perdu plus de 2000 diamants comme ça, c’est honteux car ils coûtent chers! **Developer response:** Bonjour mes amis! Nous sommes profondément désolés pour les bugs frustrants dans Farm Hole et Animal Sort qui vous ont fait perdre plus de 2 000 diamants lorsque les objets ont gelé ou que les victoires n'ont pas été enregistrées. Nous prenons très au sérieux la perte de la monnaie premium. Notre équipe technique s'efforce de résoudre ces bugs d'état gelé. Veuillez envoyer votre ID de jeu et les heures approximatives de perte à animalland@boooea.com afin que nous puissions vérifier votre historique d'achats/dépenses et vous rembourser entièrement vos diamants perdus! ### 4/5 — Good game *2026-06-25, version 2.0.1* They updated the game which changed a lot so I’m still having to basically learn a lot of it from scratch again, but I am still enjoying getting it is still in my top two of games that I play ### 1/5 — 最近ほんとひどい *2026-06-21* 以前からバグはあったけれど最近は本当にひどいです。基本無料ゲームですが課金して上位を目指す人も多数いる中で釣りはできない港は出ない…イベントマップの倉庫まで消えました。 イベントの課金アイテム購入したんですけどね倉庫消えて回収できないとか課金が無駄でしかない。見過ごせるバグとそうでないバグがあると思いますが最近は後者のバグが多すぎると思います。楽しいゲームだと思うので過疎らないようになんとか改善してほしいです。 **Developer response:** いつもプレイしていただき、また貴重なフィードバックをありがとうございます。せっかくイベントアイテムをご購入いただいたにもかかわらず、港が出ない、イベントマップの倉庫が消えるなどの深刻なバグにより、大変ご不快な思いをさせてしまい心よりお詫び申し上げます。 イベント島に関わる不具合につきましては、現在はすでに修正が完了しており、次シーズンにすべてのお客様へ補填を送らせていただきます。また、釣りで海に落ちる等の不具合がある場合は、一度アプリをアンインストールし、再インストールをお試しいただけますと解決いたします。 課金アイテムの反映やデータ調査を含め個別に対応させていただきますので、大変お手数ですがゲームIDを添えて animalland@boooea.com までご連絡いただけますようお願い申し上げます。 ### 1/5 — New update broke the game *2026-06-21* Game has many bugs after the new update. Also the devs have changes game mechanics making it less fun and forcing more grinding. **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are very sorry that the latest update has broken your gaming experience with various bugs. Our development team is already actively working on locating and fixing these technical issues. Regarding the changes to the game mechanics and the increased grind, we have already planned balance improvements and will solve these progression issues soon to make the game fun and rewarding again. If you encounter any specific bugs, please don't hesitate to let us know at animalland@boooea.com! ### 1/5 — Update created glitches. *2026-06-20, version 2.0.0* The sweet bakery aspect of the game has a glitch where after you spend all your money to buy all the crops and set everything up it all just disappears and there’s nothing there and there’s no way to contact anyone to get help because they don’t care enough. This update already erased six months of a game played every single day and now it erased everything on the land, which is how you make money, which is how you play the game and instead of crops it’s just an empty space and every other player has also complained about it but there’s nowhere to go to contact. ### 3/5 — Used to Be Great *2026-06-20, version 2.0.0* I have played this game almost the whole time it’s been out. I love that it’s something that relaxes me and takes my mind off things for a bit. But this latest update has made it so complicated that it’s not even enjoyable anymore. It used to be: Harvest your crops, sell your crops. Now you have to fill orders and buy all these buildings to craft things. I feel like the entire game was just changed to something new. I don’t like it and have found myself not even opening it when it used to be open on my phone all day. I used to buy the booster for the event island and for the battles every time a new one started. I think this is going to cost you guys. ### 4/5 — 楽しいけど… *2026-06-16* 毎日なんとなく遊んでいるだけで課金アイテムがよく貯まるので、無料でも十分楽しめます！ 家族で楽しんでます⭐︎ が、最近ゲームセンター内のアニマルソートで、一部のキャラクターのみ移動できない現象が何回かありました。 もうすぐクリアなのに、そのキャラクターが移動できないだけでクリアできず、アイテムとダイヤを無駄に使ってしまいとても悲しいです…。 ダイヤ2回分返してほしい…😭 （画面録画もしてあります） そして今日6/16アップデートしたらメイン島がリニューアルされてて、途中までアイテム支払って拡張途中だった箇所のアイテムが違うものに変わってる…支払ったコイン、クローバー、パーツなどのアイテムはどうなるの… 問い合わせ先もよくわからないし、一気にモチベ下がった… **Developer response:** ご家族で楽しんでいただきありがとうございます！アニマルソートで一部のキャラクターが動かせなくなる不具合につきましては、現在開発チームが原因究極と修正に全力で取り組んでおります。また、メイン島のリニューアルに伴い、拡張中だった素材が変更されご不安な思いをさせてしまい大変申し訳ございません。現在、資源バランスの改善を急ぎ計画しております。無駄になってしまったダイヤや素材、画面録画の件につきましては個別に調査し対応させていただきますので、大変お手数ですがゲームIDを添えて animalland@boooea.com までご連絡いただけますと幸いです。 ### 1/5 — Update robbed me *2026-06-15, version 2.0.0* I had over $200 in this game and managed to buy a store. I had been trying to buy for months and the App Store updated my game and the store is completely gone and instead they were replaced it with just brass and now I have to try and spend another several months for $3 million when I already did that. Also, there is no way to contact them. ### 1/5 — Не открывается *2026-06-15* Игра загружается до 99% и не открывается **Developer response:** Приносим извинения за неудобства! Зависание загрузки на 99% обычно связано с технической ошибкой после обновления. Пожалуйста, попробуйте полностью удалить и заново установить игру — это должно решить проблему. Если игра все равно не откроется, напишите нам на animalland@boooea.com, указав модель вашего устройства, и наша команда обязательно вам поможет! ### 1/5 — Lost my progress *2026-06-02* I love this game but, last night it wouldn’t let me on the game, I’ve spent money on this game aswell and it’s now all gone, when it let me back in I lost all my progress, if someone can help me with this that would be great thank you. **Developer response:** We are very sorry to hear that! Please ensure you are logged into the exact same Apple ID, Facebook, or Google account you used before. If your progress still doesn't appear, email your old Game ID, username, and purchase receipts to animalland@boooea.com so we can restore your data immediately. ### 1/5 — Cute *2026-05-13, version 1.9.8* I like the game but you can’t progress. It’s been months of collecting materials and I have never gotten any of the tools to get to new areas and level up. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2026-08-23, version 2.0.6* Don’t play this if you have an iPhone because they have updates which take a month to take a fact 12 players that have android get the update immediately. Because Apple is so amazing and they don’t care about when to release it. Also don’t play this game unless you want to spend a whole lot of money because they have games included which require you to spend money to get through it. They had new games all the time which 80% of the players stop playing because they are unpassable even though the company states they like it to be a little challenging. They have levels in their mini games which, per their wording is designed to not allow you to pass unless you pay for a booster. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2026-08-02* Unless you want to spend 750 gems, which would cost you at a minimum of $10 and they decide to reward you with one egg or one milk, which is free when you play the game, maybe spend your money on a game where they don’t rip you off. Every week they charge you more to play and give you less items. You now have to spend 10 times the amount you used to be able to spend and cannot progress in the game at all. I have had several glitches that have cost me money and then on my review the developer recommends I send an email. The problem is that I have emails where they say they don’t want to receive emails from customers but instead we have to post on discord. I have screenshots of posts over 15 days old with no response. So, developer, thank you for staying on par with the rest of your company and pretending to care. **Developer response:** Hello! We are truly sorry for your frustrating experience, both with the recent update balance changes and the long wait for customer support. We are currently working on optimizing resource balance and progression difficulty in upcoming updates to make the game smoother for everyone without forcing spend. Regarding your pending support query, could you please email us again at animalland@boooea.com with your Game ID? We will locate your message and resolve your issue immediately. Thank you for your patience! ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2026-07-29* Every week they charge you more to play and give you less items.

Thank you for your patience! ### 1/5 — Biggest rip off game *2026-07-17* Every update they find ways to screw you out of money and to charge you more and let you play less. They’ve updated at least three times in the last month and each time they make it impossible to get through the game unless you spend more money that then doesn’t go far. They have a platform where you can get help, but 21 days ago I asked a question and still haven’t received an answer because they really don’t care about their players, just that they spend their money. ### 1/5 — Was my favourite game. *2026-07-07, version 2.0.2* Why can’t this update be reversed? It was a perfect game before - when you could produce & sell in huge quantities, instead of nickel & dime-ing your way through & being forced to use gems to get past selling items you don’t have?? I don’t understand why it had to change. I also lost all my progress with this update - it’s killed it for me. I’m genuinely so sad; I miss the game it was before. Can this version be a separate game to download (like, Animal Land 2 or something) so that fans of the previous version can stick with that version? ### 1/5 — Harbor *2026-06-30, version 2.0.1* I’m still not seeing the harbor orders even after having the current update, how do I unlock it? ### 1/5 — Reviews *2026-06-26, version 2.0.1* What in the world. You guys made the game a capitalist hell!! Buy chickens buy cows, we’re no longer able to just fish. Where the heck are our plots of land? I’m sorry this is bad. We just need to go to before materials were required for unlocking land plots. WHY WOULD we want to sell 20 things at a TIME?!?!!! ### 1/5 — Terrible update - ruined the game *2026-06-22, version 2.0.0* I can’t believe the developers thought this update was a good idea. I was really enjoying this game and had advanced quite a ways. Now a ton of my progress is gone due to the new sale feature & how you earn money. I had all the materials I needed for this one piece of island & only 7/15 million coins to go, and now I need golden tools instead?? It’s so confusing and so much more work to get needed materials with this harbour thing. I’m so, so disappointed. I’ll be deleting it. ### 1/5 — Ruined their game for no reason *2026-06-22* This latest update is an absolute disaster. First they removed all the stores and added this garbage crafting system. They undid so many upgrades I had already earned and made it way too complicated and difficult to earn anything. They also completely broke the event island in the process, there is just a completely blank screen. There is also no way to contact support for any of these issues in game. I used to play this game constantly, but now it’s almost unplayable. I don’t understand why they made the game worse for no reason **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are very sorry to hear that the new update and the changes to the currency and island expansion mechanics have disappointed you. Regarding the high difficulty, golden tool requirements, and material balancing with the new harbor system, we have already planned improvements and will solve these balance issues soon to make progression smoother. We truly value your longtime support and hope you will give us another chance once the adjustments are live. ### 1/5 — Update confusing *2026-06-21* So you did the latest update but people can’t even work out how to sell their produce! Put some more notices out **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for your feedback. We apologize if the changes to the selling mechanics in the latest update have been confusing. We have already planned improvements to optimize the guide systems and tutorial notices to make things much clearer soon. We appreciate your patience as we work on making the game easier to navigate! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Still loving it after a year *2026-08-31* I’ve been playing Animal Land for over a year and still genuinely love it. It’s beautiful, relaxing, and fun — I still enjoy checking in, collecting my crops, playing the event islands, and slowly making progress. I’ve reached Level 13 and unlocked almost all the land without spending any money, and I’ve never had to watch an ad either. I know the game has changed a lot recently, but personally I’ve really enjoyed the changes. After playing for so long, I was getting close to running out of things to do, so the new content has made the game feel fresh again. I also really appreciate how responsive and helpful the support team has been whenever I’ve had an issue. For me, it’s the kind of game that’s best enjoyed slowly, at your own pace. After more than a year, I’m still having fun and looking forward to what comes next. ### 5/5 — I love the game but mine glitched *2026-08-07, version 2.0.5* I love this game it’s so relaxing and fun the only problem I really have is mine glitched or has a bug because on my main island keep sinking under water and I’m not on land ### 5/5 — Recent update *2026-06-19* Having issues with fishing since recent update, there is no pier appearing what so ever so I end up in the sea and have to restart game. Otherwise really enjoy the game and love the no ads **Developer response:** Hello! Thank you so much for your support and we're glad you love our ad-free experience! Regarding the fishing bug where the pier disappears and you fall into the sea, please try to completely uninstall and reinstall the game. This should solve the issue immediately. If you need further assistance, please feel free to reach out to us at animalland@boooea.com! ### 5/5 — My favorite game *2026-06-19* I’ve been playing this game for several months now, and I literally log on and play several hours a day each day. It’s so relaxing and a great cozy game. I love that there are so many things you can do, without being “locked” if you don’t do certain things. The developers also take feedback seriously and are very helpful. Overall, it’s been a wonderful game to play and I enjoy all the different events, mini-games, and cute features. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your wonderful and heartwarming feedback! We are absolutely delighted to hear that Animal Land is your favorite cozy game and that you enjoy spending so much time here with our cute features, mini-games, and events.

Customer service is also very good. Lost my account and they were able to find it and retrieve it for me! Very happy **Developer response:** Hello!

If you have any suggestions on what you’d like to see next, feel free to reach out at animalland@boooea.com. Happy farming! ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-03-23* This game is so calming. The music is lovely. You don’t have to work super hard or pay real money after a certain amount of gameplay, and I really like that. Good way to unwind. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We are delighted to hear that you are enjoying the game! If you encounter any problems while playing, please feel free to contact us. Enjoy your gaming experience! ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-03-13, version 1.9.7* Fun ### 5/5 — Stuck *2026-02-09* I’m confused on how you use the fish bait and bird bags and what are the materials for but other than them it’s really good game and I can sit and play for hours. **Developer response:** Hello! Let us explain: If you want to use fish bait, you need to click the arrow in the upper left corner of the fishing icon, select the bait you want to use, and then click confirm to use it. Using bait will increase the probability of encountering high-level fish. If you want to use bird food, you can tap to use it in the photo-taking interface. This can increase the probability of advanced actions appearing. If you want to know more details, please join our Discord community through Settings - Discord.
