### 1/5 — Stuck in world 1

*2025-03-29, version 1.0.2*

Completed everything in world one but unable to get to world 2.

### 1/5 — Character moves too slow

*2025-03-17, version 1.0.2*

Character moves too slow

### 1/5 — Forced ads

*2025-03-01, version 1.0.2*

Games has unskipable full screen ads that offer no reward and banner ads. So a portion of the screen is always blocked and gets interrupted annoyingly constantly. Might be decent if the games used an optional reward based ad system but the current ads make playing unbearable.

### 1/5 — It’s ok

*2025-02-11*

Got to level 51, ready to go to new world. Game won’t let me..

### 1/5 — Temporary subscriptions

*2025-01-26, version 1.0.1*

The game has temporary subscriptions.

### 1/5 — Fun game with one small hiccup

*2025-01-14, version 1.0.1*

Update 2: really hoping they add more worlds soon. I’m debating deleting this app since it’s been over 5 months no updates to the game. 

Update: is this game still in the works? I completed the first planet and it won’t unlock the next one???

Previous review:I find this game enjoyable and even went so far as to purchase the no ads option. I am a bit confused on the weather aspect of the game, though. Not sure if there is a bug or it’s not explained well enough in the game. For instance: Monday shows “rain creature sighting expected”, however, any time I play on said Monday there is no rain or rain creatures. On a “sunny day”, I’ll randomly get a time period where it’s raining with a count down starting at 59 minutes, but the rain stops not long after and makes the count down pointless. This also makes it very hard to complete the challenges of collecting rain creatures. Hope this is fixed or explained better in the future.

### 1/5 — Ad every 30 seconds lol

*2024-08-21*

This game is the pinnacle of ad infested shovelware. Every 30 seconds you have to watch an ad. Sometimes the ad is 5 seconds, sometimes full minute. Unplayable at this stage.

### 2/5 — Pay wall

*2024-12-29, version 1.0.1*

Was fun til I hit a literal paywall. Once you have your speed at 6 you have to pay to continue increasing it. That’s actually the dumbest thing ever. If your gonna make people hit a wall and have to pay maybe instead add like a 2x speed pass. And let people playing free to play continue to upgrade things. So money hungry to add that to the normal game upgrades

### 2/5 — I watch videoes while i play games

*2024-10-24, version 1.0.1*

The settings gives the option to shut music and sfx off but it doesnt actually do anything it keeps playing the repetitive obnoxious bird sounds that are too distracting 

Frankly dissappointing, im assuming its a bug and ill try the game without watching something to try it out but first impressions arent off to a good start if i have to mute my phone to enjoy a game personally it will not occupy space on my phone for long

### 3/5 — Good Game But No Point To It.

*2025-03-10, version 1.0.2*

It’s a good game. Keeps you engaged. Once you beat all the objectives, that’s it. Doesn’t have any other worlds to explore despite it saying it does.

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2025-03-04, version 1.0.2*

Genuinely fun, relaxing game without pop up ads. Better than almost every other mobile game I’ve come across

### 5/5 — How do i get to another world?

*2025-02-06*

I got to level 51, beat the beholder, fixed the ship, and now how do i travel to another world?

### 5/5 — Great!

*2024-09-25, version 1.0.1*

I don't think I've ever wrote a review for a game in my life i just had to make a special change for this game its so good little ads and it seems new but it must take like 10 hours to 100% i would recommend if you like tycoon/simulator games

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2024-08-11, version 1.0.1*

Been trying to find a game that's grindy and has enough room for progression without paying for a long time. This is that game and I'm loving it. I hope the developers don't make it a pay to win and keep it as is and keep developing the game because it is a really fun game.

### 5/5 — Relaxing farming

*2024-08-10, version 1.0.1*

Love the graphics, the sound design and gameplay! 

Relaxing to play. Most of the mobs don’t fight you so it’s easy collecting. 

The mini games are fun but yield small rewards so I’m not super motivated to play those. Hopefully they will boost the rewards.

### 4/5 — Confused

*2024-09-21, version 1.0.1*

Love the game, but I finished the first world. I've beaten the mega beholder multiple times and I'm just hanging around my ship now. I love this game, but what the heck?

### 3/5 — Incomplete game?

*2024-11-17, version 1.0.1*

Enjoyable game, but it seems like you can't go to any other worlds yet?
