I go back to my GROTTO since it’s the save location but STILL my progress is wiped away. That’s a seriously issue considering the fact I’ve paid for this game almost $10 if not $10 … I seriously love and enjoy it but if the save issue isn’t able to be fixed ……… REFUND PLZ But dnt get me wrong . I love the game !!!! Saving progress is my only issue plz fix it !!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Game Center *2026-01-06* Why can't I get the trophy on the iPhone? ### 3/5 — Eh *2026-01-05* It’s a great game but my only problem is I can’t save no matter how long I play or how may times I go back to the grotto it won’t save I lose all my progress ### 1/5 — Мыло *2026-01-03* На iPhone 16e очень низкое разрешение и изменить его нельзя при стабильных 60 фпс и в режиме quality. ### 2/5 — Not $10 *2026-01-02* To think this trial is going to encourage people to pay $10 for a low quality mobile game is just wicked ### 4/5 — Apple game achievement is not working *2026-01-02* i downloaded the Try & Buy and purchased the full game. But i’m not able to get any achievement from progress ### 3/5 — Не работают достижения *2026-01-02* Dear developers, achievements do not work, the full version of the game was purchased inside the game. ### 3/5 — 2 separate games? *2025-12-31* I downloaded the demo to try out the game, but after purchasing the full game from within the demo I’m still stuck with this version? It’s a fun game and works great on my iPhone 15 Pro Max, but I’m a bit OCD and seeing “Maneater - Try & Buy” app is kinda giving me the ick, especially after purchasing the full game, shouldn’t it convert to “Maneater” after purchasing? ### 1/5 — Интересная история *2025-12-28* Покупаешь игру, и тебе предлагают купить ее снова, уважаемые разработчики, вы почему пробник триальный с основной игрой в магазине не объединили? И ко всему, прочему трофеи у вас не работают??? За все за это + еще и за оптимизацию игры - кол вам! На iPad Pro последней версии вашу игру глючит так, что просто анекдот какой-то ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Kicked me out *2026-08-05* I tried to join, but it kicked me out immediately I saw people playing and it looked really fun now I’m kind of sad. I was about to buy it, but I don’t wanna buy it if it’s just gonna kick me out. ### 1/5 — Не работает *2026-08-02* На iPhone 17e даже не запускается, вылетает сразу же ### 1/5 — Can’t play *2026-08-02* The moment I open the app, it automatically closes it.

После выхода в главное меня сохранение есть но если полностью закрыть игру то сохранение остается только до момента покупки . ### 1/5 — Не запускается игра *2026-06-25* Игра перестала запускаться на айфон 17е, нажимаю включить, появляется загрузка и сразу игра сворачивается и ничего не происходит. ### 1/5 — Do not buy *2026-02-13* When you go to “buy the full experience” you’ll get scammed $10 just like I did and many others have, do not buy this game ### 1/5 — The game has a black screen error *2026-01-19* The game has a black screen error when logging into the game **Developer response:** Hey there, and sorry for the trouble. Which device are you using to play the game? Have you tried to reinstall the game? Kind regards, HG-Support ### 1/5 — Мошенники!!! *2026-01-09* Скачал игру , прошел первую локацию!

This is the try and buy version (I would have just bought the full version didn’t know it was available separately cause it’s annoying knowing it will always say try and buy version, but whatever) I am playing on 17 pro max and it runs really good, but this is an intensive game so expect even this phone to get hot playing it. This game also has a 120htz option for gameplay and it is BUTTERY smooth when I show people this game on my iPhone they get blown away ### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS GAME *2026-01-11* I love this game no ads it just perfect I I played this game for 1 day ### 5/5 — Worth it *2026-01-08* Game runs great on my 17 pro max. Play this game on my Xbox before. Crazy that I can play it on my phone, I used a GameSir controller and it’s a lot of fun ### 5/5 — Great game hope the put the dlc as well *2026-01-02* It was amazing I had so much fun I loved the game and also completed the whole game though I would suggest playing with controller it makes it so much easier to play. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
