Childhood game

One of the best games. Highly recommend it

I always come back to this game

It’s so calming, beautiful and fun. I played this like a decade ago as a teenager and now that I finally have my first iPad I did not hesitate to buy it and experience it on a bigger screen. Loveeee

Очень хорошая игра!

Это самое лучшее атмосферная игра которую я только видел! Обязательно скачайте эту игру не пожалеете!

Update suggestion

BADLAND and BADLAND 2 are honestly some of the best mobile games ever made. The atmosphere, art style, physics, sound design, and overall creativity are incredible. These games feel unique even years later.

But there is one huge problem that seriously hurts the experience: some levels become extremely difficult and frustrating to the point where progression stops being fun.

Please consider adding:
• Difficulty options (Easy / Normal / Hard)
• A checkpoint skip option
• Optional assist mode for casual players
• More forgiving checkpoints in some levels

I love challenging games, but in BADLAND the difficulty sometimes becomes exhausting instead of enjoyable. Many players probably quit not because the game is bad — but because they get stuck for too long.

These games deserve to be experienced by more people from start to finish. Please don’t lock such an amazing experience behind brutal difficulty spikes.

Still one of the greatest mobile game series ever made.

Nostalgic Game

I used to play this game when I was a kid. Maybe around 7-9 years old I have memories of playing with my brother and beating all the levels. Now I go back and play to get all the eggs. It’s a good challenge as well as very scenic and calming. I enjoy this game very much.
