### 5/5 — HIsense Element TV

*2026-08-02*

HIsense Element TV

### 4/5 — It’s pretty good!

*2026-07-25*

It’s insane how good this is. It’s actually way better than most other games that try to be like a free version of a paid game. I feel like the ads are leveled out, and I’m glad that players with no internet access can also enjoy the game! I have some suggestions though, to make it more original!

There could be new tool types like the Drill and the Saw! There could also be more skins for free, like maybe 2 more, so there’s a boy skin, a girl skin, and a noob skin or something!

### 4/5 — Problem

*2026-07-13*

I’m not really sure if this is for copyright issues but I have a few problems with the game 
First of all when I try to spawn an armor and tools and creative mode for some reason, it says they need the materials which is weird because in creative mode you should be able to get everything second of all it forces you to do a bunch of stuff for the tutorial and I think you should be able to skip the tutorial instead

### 1/5 — I don’t like this game

*2026-07-03*

This is a copy Minecraft, but it looks bad. I don’t love.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2026-06-27*

Très bon jeux ! Je recommande à 100% !

**Developer response:** Merci beaucoup ! 😄 Nous sommes ravis que tu apprécies toutes les nouveautés, les mini-jeux et le contenu du jeu. Ton soutien et ta recommandation nous font très plaisir ! 💖

### 1/5 — A couple of suggestions

*2026-06-08*

Okay I gave this two stars because my game it really laggy and buggy and randomly kicks me out all the time. Then, as soon as I get back in, it gives me an ad. I've barely gotten to play this. 
Also a couple suggestions
1. Make it so you can tame mobs to make them your pets instead of paying coins/emeralds. Paying that many emeralds for a pet dog is insane and part of why I don't like this game as much
2. It'd be cool to get two starter skins, one boy one girl. Because I'm a girl playing this and would like a girl skin without buying it
3. It would be nice to NOT RANDOMLY KICK ANIMALS LIKE EXCUSE ME. I will spawn in, turn around, and it turns out I just angered a bear

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the detailed review. I’m really sorry about the lag, bugs, crashes, and the ads appearing after getting kicked out — I completely understand how frustrating that is, especially when you barely get time to actually play. I’m actively working on fixing the stability and performance issues so the game runs much smoother.

I also really appreciate the suggestions:
- A taming system for pets instead of paying so many emeralds is a great idea, and I agree the current prices can feel unfair.
- Adding both a boy and girl starter skin is something I’ll seriously consider, because everyone should feel represented from the start without needing to buy cosmetics.
- And yes, the accidental animal kicking/attacking definitely needs improvement. I’ll look into making interactions less frustrating so players don’t accidentally anger animals just by spawning or turning around.

Thanks again for taking the time to write such honest feedback — it genuinely helps improve the game.

### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER!

*2026-05-26, version 6.9*

THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER IM IN LOVE WITH THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — I like this game

*2026-05-23*

I love this game

### 4/5 — Not a bad

*2026-05-19*

The game is fun but it shows me an ad as soon as I starts a new game and it shows another ad when you try to exit

### 4/5 — uh

*2026-04-09*

it is so weird like every time I create a World it doesn’t let me remove blocks or put blocks on I already deleted it so don’t get mad
