### 3/5 — To many ads

*2026-06-19, version 2.8.9*

Way to many ads. There should be a paid ad removal option. Ruins the immersion

### 3/5 — 中文

*2026-06-04, version 2.8.9*

没有中文

### 2/5 — Too many adds not worth playing

*2026-05-10, version 2.8.9*

There are too many adds interrupting you. It’s a little fun though and I would continue playing if the adds weren’t so annoying and disruptive. I don’t believe in buying for ‘no add’ packs so even if they offered it I wouldn’t buy it. Just a bad decision from the company.

### 3/5 — Good game, too many ads

*2026-04-27, version 2.8.9*

The game itself is pretty good but the ads interrupt it severely. There’s no pack to purchase to get rid of forced ads. Just exiting a crafting table is enough to trigger an ad and I’ve actually run into an ad that shut my phone off. I had to force restart the phone. I’m not playing the game while there’s no ads pack. If that gets added in the future, I’ll reinstall the game and play.

### 4/5 — Fun while it lasted

*2026-03-24, version 2.8.9*

I personally like the pace but too many ads. it becomes frustrating when you realize there’s resources you can only obtain through purchasing with money. You will also lose your loot on islands that say you can get it back when you respawn if you die a second time, something i was unaware of. So i lost extra backpack storage and really good supplies, now im not sure how ill get the storage back without paying real money for it! It would be five stars for me if there were less ads and less reliance on your dollars to succeed.

### 3/5 — All bad

*2026-02-03, version 2.8.6*

Way to many adds it’s not worth it

### 3/5 — Decent but flawed

*2026-02-01, version 2.8.6*

To start, game is clearly showing itself as a derivative of Raft. But then instantly diverts into a zombie survival game. Honestly I hate the abundance of zombie games. Why not vampires or werewolves? Anyway, some stuff done wrong, the islands are not super clear which ones reset whenever you leave or not. Some have timers so you know. Mechanics for the game are a bit choppy at times. You auto lock on monsters instead of resources directly under your foot,and there is no way to manually ignore that. Storage is a big issue. For a game styling after a resource collector like raft, the storage is limited and upgrades? Those are ridiculously expensive and almost not bothering with as it only doubles your capacity for a chest, which you could do with a new super cheap chest. In a lot of ways, the raft quickly becomes redundant. Also the raft is permanently locked in one place. A waste of concept. What they do well? The island concept. Bouncing from island to island with different goals works well for this game. The graphics are nice, and the monsters not too overpowered, though more annoying in some ways.this game has a story, albeit a weak one.

Suggestions: let the raft move. If it moved around in a simple pattern it would be possible to reach some islands with less stamina. Also, being able to move the raft would allow people to unlock ‘regions’ with resources. And certain areas of raft drift could have a higher abundance of some resources. Crafting should be a bit more simplified. If it needs water, it should not consume the bottles too. Storage needs a serious tweak. If I am investing all those resources to upgrade a chest from ten slots, it should provide more than just another ten slots I could easily get with a new chest. Recommend adding an extra five for level two and maybe ten extra for three. This incentivizes players to maximize. Or at least tone down the demands for upgrading to balance. 

If this group ever does a similar game, I’d be interested, but first, ditch the overused zombie apocalypse, and do something else. Alien cyborg chimpanzees or something different. And either build a better, more cohesive story that drags players in, or get rid of it. The middle ground here isn’t really enjoyable.

### 3/5 — language

*2026-01-22, version 2.8.6*

### 1/5 — Bug Issue

*2025-11-07, version 2.8.6*
