Excellent game with 1 serious flaw in mobile version

The game is one of the best ever. Beware this mobile version: when you hold-tap the bottom right virtual joystick anything underneath it is prioritised. It means that if you have a tree there, you go chop it, if there is a creature, you attack it -> and it and its friends will immediately kill you. But all you really want is to just use the bloody joystick. I died so many times because of this, it’s so easy to reproduce, so easy to fix but so terrible as a flaw. Would be 5 star otherwise.

Bad

Управление ведением пальца по экрану очень не удобно. + иногда оно слетает и персонаж идет на касание пальца бесповоротно. Управление с джойстика тоже плохое и статичное. Очень неудобно скидывать предметы и взаимодействовать с ними в инвентаре.
