This game would be lovely with my cozy lil backbone ### 1/5 — 1 Year Later *2026-05-31* Well, a year later and not much has changed. The weird gray box around the sloppily ported game is no longer there, which is a plus. The game is definitely too small for smartphones still, and the touchpad to navigate is small and fixed to one spot instead of being dynamic. And yes, I still crashed on the tutorial island. Ultimately, Crunchyroll needs to release this game back to its devs so it can get the mobile release it deserves. **Developer response:** Hi there! It sounds like you've been waiting for some improvements, and we truly appreciate your patience. It's great to hear that the gray box issue has been resolved, but we understand your concerns about the game's size and navigation. The fixed touchpad can definitely impact your experience. We're also aware of the crashing issue on the tutorial island, and your feedback is invaluable. Thank you for sharing your thoughts; it helps us understand where we can focus our efforts. We hope you continue to enjoy your time with the game! 💛 ### 1/5 — Não passa do tutorial *2026-05-13* Faço todo tutoria e o jogo não carrega mais, quando volto sou obrigado a fazer tudo de novo. Desisti **Developer response:** Olá, Anttonio! 💛 É realmente decepcionante saber que você teve dificuldades para avançar além do tutorial e que o jogo não carrega corretamente. Agradecemos por compartilhar sua experiência, pois isso nos ajuda a entender melhor os desafios que os jogadores enfrentam. Sua frustração é compreensível, e é importante para nós ouvir feedback como o seu. Se puder, considere usar as opções de suporte dentro do jogo para relatar esse problema com mais detalhes. Isso pode nos ajudar a investigar a situação e melhorar a experiência para todos. Esperamos que você possa encontrar uma solução e que tenha uma experiência mais satisfatória no futuro! ### 4/5 — Absolutely Charming *2026-04-13, version 1.0.4* Probably one of my new favourite games, super charming and humble. I want with all my heart to give it a 5/5 but it’s just sooooo bugged. Glitches everywhere that take away from the experience. Very similar to stardew valley. There’s lots of cases where random things will take the appearance of an entire sprite sheet, most commonly the map and player. Also just when things don’t appear at all. If it weren’t for that it would be 6/5 but I don’t think I can give it that with all the bugs. ### 1/5 — Unplayable Currently *2026-01-11* Could only get past the crop tutorial before the game froze on a brown-colored screen with no music. UI would benefit from different placement as well to better work with where the thumbs lie when holding the device. **Developer response:** Hi SimulAsian! 💛 I completely understand how disappointing it can be when a game freezes, especially after getting through the crop tutorial. Your feedback about the UI placement is really valuable, and I appreciate you taking the time to share it with us. If you could reach out through in-app support with more details about the freezing issue, it would really help us improve the experience for everyone. Thank you for your insights, and I truly hope to see you back in the game soon! ### 1/5 — Crash *2025-12-27* I am unable to get past the character creation. Every time I finish the screen goes gray. **Developer response:** Hi Cocoiut! 💛 I can imagine how disappointing it must be to hit a snag during character creation. Your passion for anime and gaming truly shines through, and I appreciate you sharing your experience with us. If you could reach out to our in-app support or visit https://www.crunchyroll.com/crgameshelp, it would really help us get to the bottom of this issue. Thank you for your understanding, and I hope we can get you back to enjoying the game soon! ### 2/5 — Works on iPad, not worth it *2025-12-25* I downloaded this wanting to play a calm farming game. Crunchyroll vault mostly seemed to have fighting, romance, and or horror type games. And this seemed super interesting from the outset. However the controls are not great. They are stuck on one side of the screen and are not smooth. This makes getting through the tutorial an arduous task. And the gameplay itself gives the impression that this was an earlier foray into games for CR. Trite dialogue, and cutscenes. I’m fairly certain I gave this a chance previously on an iPad mini 2 and forgot, so this review is for me as much as it is for anyone else. Dated game with poor controls. **Developer response:** Hi Lani2196! 💛 It's clear that your experience hasn't met your expectations, and we truly appreciate you sharing your thoughts. We recognize that the controls and gameplay feel less than ideal, especially when you were hoping for a relaxing farming experience. Your feedback about the dialogue and cutscenes is valuable, and we’ll ensure it’s noted. If you have any further concerns or need assistance, please feel free to reach out at https://www.crunchyroll.com/crgameshelp. Thank you for taking the time to express your feelings; your insights are important to us! We hope to bring you a better experience in the future! 🌟 ### 1/5 — Fix it! *2025-12-01* I really want to play it. It’s looks adorable and fun. But I press new game and get a black screen. And if I make it past that black screen the next selection. I may change my review of this gets worked on. Really a shame. **Developer response:** Hi Nyuget! 💛 It's wonderful to hear you find the game adorable and fun! We truly appreciate your feedback about the black screen issue. We're on it and have escalated this internally for a fix. Thank you for sharing, and we’re hopeful you’ll be back to enjoying the game soon! ### 1/5 — Freezes when generating world *2025-08-18* Developers are idiots ### 1/5 — Needs a lot of work *2025-08-17* OK, three main issues 1. Doses not utilize the full screen of my phone. 2. It not backbone compatible 3. No voice acting Look if I am going to pay for a subscription for a game then I want a few basic things. I want it to work with my preferred controller scheme I want voice acting even if it’s AI acting. Finally I want the game to be optimized to a reasonable degree. ## Frequently asked questions about Crunchyroll ### What is Crunchyroll: Moonstone Island?
