Just a few issues
Honestly, I love this game very much! The animations, the names of the unique woffs, the original designs! Though as many other reviews will say, it doesn’t give you a lot of time on certain things like plants. Well I’ve been able to mostly manage that, honestly my biggest grievance is the lack of dialogue variety, I’d love to have more than three chat varieties with elves, vittra, and nisse! As for the ads, I’d love for the chance to buy the ad free version, though every time I try to open up the purchases I’ll be told to check my internet connection and try again, regardless of internet status. Besides this the game is a nice little relaxing thing for Hilda fans!!

Unable to pay?
So far this game seems adorable! My daughter and I enjoy playing it together. The creatures are all adorable, and it’s a blast for any fans of the show or books. The ads do pop up quite a lot, so I wouldn’t recommend this for younger kids.
I am wondering if the developers have limited some functionality or perhaps have gone out of business. I was given the opportunity to pay to avoid ads (yay!), but when I tried to tap it, it wouldn’t leave the app. When I tap the plus sign by the acorns, it tells me I am not connected to the internet (and I definitely am). And when I try to follow links to the developer’s site, nothing comes up. I would happily pay to avoids ads, if given the chance again! I hope they fix this.

Amazing and adorable! 5 stars even though ads (but you get to choose to watch them!)
I’ve only been playing for a day but it’ SO STINKING CUTE! I recommend for new and old fans of the show! I love it and it’s adorable! It’s also very quick to download and the game is very simple. Edit: you have to watch ads to get acorns sometimes but the amount of acorns you get is not worth the 15 second ads. But that’s the only downside to the game. Also, I think an improvement would be to add more places to the game.

Could use some improvements, but overall captures the spirit of Hilda well!
It became clear while playing this game, that the developers have the upmost love for Hilda and her adventurous world through interacting with the creatures that came by both from the show and ones created exclusively for this game. I do however find that any conversations which I initiate with the creatures that come by to be rather lackluster, oftentimes there’s only one response to give or if there’s multiple questions I can only ask one before it follows up with “Goodbye!” as the only option rather than allowing me to ask the other. It would be a nice addition if I could have more meaningful conversations with the creatures that visit by having more options available, the resulting friendship level being based on what responses I chose. I would also like if I could subtly interact with them after the fact, for example reacting to me tapping them or even being able to gift items in my backpack for them to keep.

Great!(ad placement could be better)
I love the game. Sometimes I’ll get off it for a couple weeks but I always come back eventually. However I have one big problem with it. I don’t mind ads. I know it’s how developers make their money. But I’ve noticed that if I’m in a place collecting acorns from somebody and I get an ad right after, any other characters disappear from the area and I completely miss out on the acorns because it doesn’t auto collect them like it does when you’re not in game. So it would be really nice if you got the ads like between maps. Or after you’ve talked to everyone. Even better maybe offer an ad-free option. I would pay for it. Other than that though. Great game. Hope one we’ll get some more content

Love Hilda - hate ads for kids!
We LOVE Hilda and our son especially does. This game lets him collect the creatures from the show and vaguely teaches him about patience because he has to wait to see what shows up. He doesn’t have unlimited access to the ipad so we have a lot of dead plants but he takes it in stride and I think it’s overall helpful.
I’m really disturbed that even with a 0-4 year old age setting, you cannot play the game without ads. At this impressionable age, our son can NOT tell the difference between the game and the ad, as much as we try to explain. He wants to play every game or go to every app that pops up and they are not all appropriate for him. I would SO happily pay to remove all the ads from this game so he can just play it without our supervision. Even with all the parental settings I can turn on his ipad, the ads on this game come up, but he is limited from buying anything.
Please please please find a way to make this game more child-friendly!
Thanks.

Like a Tomogatchi, needs constant attention
I got this game for my daughter and we were very excited to play it together. But it’s not really a game. It’s like a world you have to constantly upkeep and check on. If you “buy” a plant with your acorn money, and then turn off the game, have dinner, and go to bed, the plant is dead by morning. When were we supposed to be watering it? In our sleep? Also, we constantly miss the visits from creatures because they come in the middle of the night sometimes too. Today, the alert said we missed one, 8 hours ago. That means it came at 2am. I don’t understand. We love the show and wanted to love the game. But it’s a waste of time unless you can commit to checking it constantly. Also, the music is so repetitive and annoying and the creatures, when you do catch them, do nothing. You just take a picture of them, pet them, and they leave. My daughter is super disappointed.

I really like it but...
I really like the game and I really love all the creatures but I’ve had a couple huge issues.
1) Sometimes I don’t get the notifications for it so when I get cool creatures like when the obelisk troll showed for the first time but I completely missed it because I wasn’t notified.
2) The “one time offer” for ads. At the very beginning of the game I got the one time offer for ad free play but at the very beginning I’m not sure if I’m even gonna keep the game much less spend money on it and now I can’t find anywhere to find that option.(If anyone knows where this option is then please let me know)
3) a lot of the dialogue in the game is very unoriginal and are just pulled straight out of the show and are word for word just lines from the show.
4) the ads(again). It’s gotten to the point that ads won end and will just stay frozen no matter how long I wait causing me to miss out so in so much
So I really like this game but with all these problems especially the last one it’s gotten unplayable

It’s really fun but ...
So I downloaded the game a couple of weeks ago and I fell in love with it but now I have all of the locations, most of the creatures, and a bunch of acorns, now the game is starting to get boring and I really don’t want to stop playing, I think it’s fun but fun there is definitely a lot that could be added, season two just came out so you could add in some more of the creatures or other activities, maybe another game to play besides dragon panic, and possibly some new locations, and maybe a way to trade already obtained items for acorns. I really love this game and I hope that another update is coming for season two. Keep up the good work!

Good game overall except...
It’s really hard to find creatures! How much time does it take? Also, can you make it so you can take a picture of Alfur in the introduction? That would be very nice because in the show, Alfur is Hilda’s best friend, also, does it ever show deerfoxes or even just twig? Also, does an item only work one time? also lower the prices of places so newbies like me can access more places than just one when we start. Also maybe add and easy and hard mode? Easy mode makes creatures come more often and hard mode makes creatures come less often.

Nice game, needs a pause.
My kids love this game. The art is fun, they like the creatures. But they are also getting bored with the creatures always saying the same lines. The other issue is that they don’t get time on the table every day and they are so disappointed when they get back on and all their plants are dead. The game would benefit from a pause option where game time did not pass- no creatures came, no plant time passed, no acquisition of acorns from creatures coming and going...just a blank gap. It would make it a lot easier for them to pause the app until a little before they had their screen time and then pause it at the end of the day as well.
While it is a lovely game and they have had fun with it, these two things, particularly the need for a pause, would improve the experience for them.

Really Fun!!
I really like this game! I enjoy petting and feeding the different creatures. And the music just makes it better!! But, I don’t really like the fact that the new locations cost so many acorns... and it is fairly difficult to get a lot of “golden” acorns. But, it is really fun to get rewards and badges. Also, it is fun to “talk” to some of the creatures, too! I don’t think it matters that it is/they are given/programmed question(s). It is fun to see them respond. And they look really happy after!! 😁❤️ If you are reading this review, please download this game! You will enjoy it!!! 😁😁😁
P.S: Always be HAPPY!!!! Always have faith in the Lord, and your life will seem, and be, brighter. ⭐️⭐️🌻🌼💟✝️☮️🛐😁❤️❤️😁🍥❤️🍓

Please
I just want to say I am in love with this show, it is honestly my favorites series I have ever watched and I wrote this review because I am worried that there won’t be other seasons and am begging for more. The show has so much potential and I would hate for it to go too waste. The writers of this, you guys really have something special. I’m only a 15 year old boy writing on an apple review lol so I’m sure this won’t get any attention but It was the only way I could possibly get ahold of the creators. I have really bad depression and this show was like a light that helped me fight off the darkness. I felt like I could connect with hilda being the outcast trying to fit in.

What’s the point?
I was really excited for a Hilda game. Games like this one though shouldn’t even be called games. You plant objects and then shut the game off and come back later. So far it has failed to send me any notifications telling me when things arrive even though notifications are turned on. I made sure of it. It’s cute and I do like it but what’s the frikkin point? Play for 5 minutes than ignore for an hour. That’s really dumb. Games are supposed to entertain. Also I’d like to add that anytime I click to watch a bonus ad for an extra reward I get an ad but no reward.

The best game I’ve ever played
This game makes you feel like you’re in the TV show, i love the tv show SOOO MUCH, I can’t stop watching, it’s the same for the game, I can’t STOP PLAYING!!!! It’s a good way to pass time while you’re waiting in line or walking to the park. The only thing I can complain about is probably the limited amount of characters, I would like some more characters to meet and maybe some parents like Hilda’s mum or David and Frida’s family. Overall, I highly recommend it, even if you don’t watch the show, it’s all in the life of an adventurer

Incredible attention to detail
I’m a big fan of the show. The small details in the design of this game are fantastic. The changing ribbons for each level. Different movements for each type of creature. Unique facial expressions. Little animations for every action. And of course the huge variety of adorable creatures. I’ve been playing non stop for almost 2 weeks. I’m on level 50. I haven’t spent any money yet. But if I didn’t have tons of free time to constantly play, it would get old fast. Best kind of game I could ask for while still being free. I only wish there was more clarity on how the likes and dislikes work. I’d love to be able to know how to attract specific creatures based on how i move items around. Thank you to everyone who helped make this game. It’s been such a joy to play :)

It’s great!!
It’s honestly one of my favorite games so far, due to its calm and cute nature. Also being able to “interact” with my favorite creatures is really cool!! The only thing I had an issue with was the beginning. It kept notifying me of a creature but when I pressed the notification there was nothing there. On the third time though, I waited for a moment before pressing it and went into the app on my own and I had a Woff!! Then after that the features at the bottom of the screen started to work, too. Once you get the first creature the whole game works itself out. One quick note as well, to pet a creature you move your finger back and forth on the creature and then it counts as a pet(this took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out). But yeah, the game is splendid and I can definitely see young children enjoying it!!!

A cute and relaxing game
This is a calming and cute game. The illustrations are lovely and interesting and reflect the ambiance of the show. I would love to see more personalized dialogue options for the various creatures and guests , maybe even lore on their species. I would also like to play the dragon cards more than once a day if I lose , it’s very fun and creative. I’ve been having issues with ads loading sometimes when I try to view them for bonus gifts. It seems to be the same ad whenever this happens. I believe it’s an HP computer ad. The screen goes black while sound plays and I’m unable to exit the ad and return to the app.

Love the game overall, but
The tv show is adorable, my whole family loves it. I got the game to play with my kids and in general we think it’s really cute. However they got pretty bored with it after a while. It’s set up so that you have to go back and play every so often throughout the day. Otherwise the food runs out or the plants die. Replacing plants gets expensive, and the watering is pretty frequent. Without them though, you don’t attract the little creatures. Frequently they die or the food runs out while we are asleep. We also miss a lot of creatures by sleeping. Also, the creatures say the same things so often that the kids grew tired of it.
It seems they just did an update that has added some variety of play and my kids are interested again. Getting the little bits and bobs and curious as to what they’re for has peaked their curiosity.
Overall a very sweet little game, however the time constraints are frustrating. I don’t want the kids to have to play every hour or two to keep things going. I wish watering and feeding was once daily.

Suggestions
I like the game so far. It’s true to the show, great design, cute concept. Very addicting, I’m always checking to see if somebody has arrived. First and foremost, I’d really like to see more dialogue options. The 1 or 2 that are repeatedly available are great at first but after a few times get rather tired. Also, more plant & food options would be nice.
One of my favorite parts is the card game because it actually requires some thought, and it can be kind of tricky. However, I REALLY think it’d be great if it were available more often than every 24 hours, maybe 2 or 3 times a day. Or instead of setting it up on a timer, maybe after every 25 creatures met and fed/pet... or something. :)
