Coming back to it in 2026, however, I’ve noticed 2 major things… 1. The Softlock. Yes, I managed to halt all my progress in less than a minute… by buying a new DNA instead of a new egg. My attempts to buy more coins via watching an ad were fruitless. (i.e., an ad did not play) 2. The table to the right appears to have gone missing. No matter how fervently I swiped, it would never take me there. I know Apple has taken some issues involving violence in games on the App Store, but honestly, I don’t even recall there being blood. Either the table has been removed.. or I’m just a bad swiper. This game still holds a special place in my heart. Thank you for developing this game, John Ayala. ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-06-14, version 9.0* I’m in love with this game, I love it, played before the farm was added, wish there was more eggs, I have ideas such as insect, spider, snake, octopus, and crab, would be amazing to see more added to this game ### 5/5 — Peak *2025-09-03, version 9.0* I was looking for this game for a long time and I’ve finally found it, this is peak gameplay ### 3/5 — Favorite game, but has a problem. *2025-01-21, version 9.0* I absolutely love this game. It could use more stuff, but it's great and simple for what it is. A bug I have is that there's no ability to actually buy anything with real money ingame. I want to get the amphibian egg, and actually support the creators of this game, but whenever I tap it it doesn't work. Not even the ads work when I try getting the 10 coins. Please fix this, I want to be able to actually support you guys. ### 4/5 — Interesting and semi fun game *2024-04-03, version 9.0* Pretty fun,no other games like it,it’s just repetitive as hell and hard to get money.if it was a bit more polished it’d be a perfect 10/10 ### 4/5 — Good stuff, yo *2024-01-05, version 9.0* Baby sensory for me fr fr on god ### 5/5 — Pretty good game! *2023-05-03, version 8.4.8* Good job John on making this game! ### 4/5 — Really good but… *2022-11-02, version 8.4.8* It just needs more baby gravy and eggs (update) I mean he prob gave up on this game but pleassseeee update ### 4/5 — There’s something I need to address. *2022-09-10, version 8.4.8* Whenever you put one of the things on the gray table. They end up walking off. Could you put barriers so they can’t? That would be great. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Good but they escape easily *2021-06-19, version 8.4.8* It’s good so far but other reviews like mine are like why can they escape and not be able to have a cage or soothing like that? Otherwise it’s so good and weird in a good way and the only thing u need to fix is that no pressure and stuff only one simple thing.and it’s a funny game! you deserve this:5 ⭐️s 😌 :) ## Frequently asked questions about Homunculus SandBox ### What is Homunculus SandBox?
