### 2/5 — Price paywall

*2026-08-22*

The price of 9 dollars is too much for a map game so I’d recommend less like 2 or 5 dollars so it would be worth it ☹️

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2026-07-24*

I paid for the full version and honestly, its 100% worth it. I spend hours on it. I was wondering if there'd ever be a commeunity or workshop for custom sprites? And also, if there'd ever be a way to make custom sprites. One more thing i think would be great is a flatten/equal terrain brush. Just to make a flat area for the land masses

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! Plate tectonics are definitely on my todo list for a future update. :)

### 1/5 — Not good, but could be great

*2026-07-14*

To start, when editing the style of your map, you’re stuck viewing a grey height map, so you can’t even tell where the land, sea, or anything is.  Secondly and honestly most importantly, the main “map making” tools are stuck behind a paywall.  This is so uncool and makes this app practically useless.

### 5/5 — goiod

*2026-07-04, version 2.6*

to good

### 5/5 — I like this application, I just have one suggestion

*2026-06-12*

One suggestion I have is a way to export the height maps

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2026-04-18*

Really amazing app but it does cost money for basic features

### 1/5 — Horrible without paying

*2026-03-10*

I downloaded this after reading the reviews, and I saw one saying that the app is pointless without unlocking the features behind a paywall, but based on the developer response, I wasn't worried. But they were right. It's absolutely unusable without paying. Half of the tabs are locked behind a paywall. You only have access to two tabs, that do practically nothing when it comes to actually building the map. The only thing you can change, is the sea levels, and elevation (which is hard to even make out). You want biomes? Paywall. You want to label things? Paywall. Any detail at all? Paywall. Genuinely, the only map you can get without paying, is something that looks like just flat green and blue blobs splattered about.

### 5/5 — Stupid

*2026-03-09*

This is outrageous. You cant do anything with the geopgrphy. There is zero options. I put this in 5 for it can be viewed

### 5/5 — Solid app

*2026-03-02*

Perfect for on the fly map making, generally pleased with it. I honestly only have one minor complaint, in that, i wish icons and labels could be made a little smaller than the lowest setting. Other than that. Very useful app.

### 1/5 — Its good but..

*2026-01-07*

You could let us make custom land and custom countries with labels and maybe if theres a settings add a toggle that makes the map into a earth globe or add it somewhere ;)
