### 4/5 — Game completed?

*2026-04-15, version 2.3.6*

Will there ever be another content update? Since there are no new areas to unlock the wait times between ‘events’ feels way too long. Not to mention the grind to keep increasing coin and xp storage feels pointless when there’s nothing left to spend it on. I like this game and have made purchases but it’s disappointing that nothing has changed for years…

### 5/5 — Relaxing game

*2026-01-14, version 2.3.3*

The game is really relaxing to play must remind getting this game 😎👍🏻

### 4/5 — Great game, just 1 issue

*2026-01-02*

Love this game I remember playing it around three years ago and I just recently re-download it again after trying to look for it for a long time. I just have one issue and is that I wish I could have my progress saved on my account just so i could play on either 2 devices or if i lose one device i have a backup.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2025-06-29, version 2.1.7*

Great game to play when your just chilling

### 5/5 — My favourite game ever

*2025-06-15, version 2.1.7*

This game is awesome not only that but there’s so many tools you can make so many biomes you can explore so many treasures you could find it’s just it’s absolutely amazing. I love this game only been playing a few days and already completely hooked. I hope you guys continue the good work and that there will be more stuff added in future updates five diamonds

### 5/5 — Real Fun

*2025-02-01, version 2.1.7*

I didn’t think it was going to be a fun as I thought, but there is a lot to do in this merge game. Definitely give it at try. I like the pixel style art also.

### 3/5 — I would give it 5 stars, but…

*2024-12-19, version 2.1.7*

good game! i enjoy it, but anytime i make a purchase, and that it does go through, it doesn’t reward me with what i bought. not even a week after the purchase. so far i had made 3 minor purchases, and I’m going to have to ask for refunds from each because i never received what i paid for. not even now (a month after the first purchase).

### 5/5 — Peaceful

### 4/5 — Problem

*2024-06-25, version 2.1.7*

Great game but stuff cost to much XP and powder WHY can we fix this pls

### 5/5 — Favorite merge game

*2024-06-09, version 2.1.7*

Genuinely super fun, devs are updating and fixing and balancing all the time. Probably the best merge game I play! You can get extras/speed up crafting by watching an optional ad but I’ve never had them force an ad like a lot of games do, which I LOVE

### 5/5 — Hi

### 1/5 — Way too hard

*2026-03-09, version 2.3.6*

You have to get tons of birch axes upgrade them and super merge it just to get a axe to get blossom the same goes for gold picks

### 1/5 — Sick and tired

*2021-07-23*

I AM SICK AND TIRED OF THIS GAME. I WATCH YOUR SHADY ADS ALL ABOUT SCAMS, ONLY TO NOT GET MY REWARD. 

PROGRESS IS MESSED UP, SLOW, STRANGE. IT GIVES ME “ITEM NAME” ITEMS THAT CANT BE USED UNTIL, OH NEVER MIND YOU FIND OUT WAY LATER WHEN THE STUPID GAMES GIVES IT ITS ACTUAL NAME. DO NOT GIVE ME A USELESS “ITEM NAME” ITEM IF I CANT EVEN USE IT! PROGRESS IS HORRIBLE AND WEIRD. IT MAKES ME SO FRUSTRATED WHEN I PLAY THIS GAME AND IT CONSTANTLY DOES THIS, DOES NOT GIVE THE PROPER REWARD, AND THE PROGRESS IS NOT SATISFYING AT ALL. All that work and effort for nothing it feels like. It doesn’t feel like a fun game. If i wanted to put effort into something for nothing all I have to do is just look at reality. I want a game that’s FUN and SATISFYING to play. Not this.

**Developer response:** Hey Shoulder Cookie!

First things first, we sincerely apologize for the very late reply. We are very shocked to see this review. This looks like an issue that was present in Version 1.1.2 and has definitely been addressed and tweaked in other version. We are currently on version 1.4.5. 

We would love for you to try out our newer version and hopefully this improves your experience a lot more. Please, if you have any more feedback or suggestions, let us know at support@mergecrafter.com!

### 1/5 — glitchy

*2021-07-04, version 1.1.1*

when i first opened the game it just got off it straight away idk if it’s the game or just my ipad but pls fix the issue cuz i rlly wanna try the game but it seems like i can’t. Anyways if u don’t understand what i mean by getting off i mean that when i tapped to open the app it didn’t open it.

### 1/5 — Unacceptably Predatory

*2021-07-02*

The general trade off for games with energy meters is that once you deplete the meter, you have to shut the game down and go do something else for a while to let the energy recharge. The alternative to that is to pay money to recharge the meter.  In this game it’s pretty easy to run out of merges in base camp and spend all your energy on dungeon runs, and then you’re left with nothing but to shut the game off for a few hours until you can run another dungeon and earn more materials to merge to unlock more land.

Except…

Surprise!  You don’t refill energy while the game is closed, only when it’s open.  Shut the game down with 3 energy at night, open it the following morning, and you have…4 energy.  The timer is 6 minutes per point of energy and doesn’t tick over until the game is reopened, leaving you with 36 minutes of staring at a screen with no matches before you have the energy to get more materials.  Unless, of course, you want to spend cash to buy a refill…

This behavior is a new low for predatory behavior and needs to be stamped out across the App Store.  Refuse to do business with any developer that uses this tactic.  They need to be put out of business.

**Developer response:** Hi WheeShkspr.

We're sorry to see hear this. The energy not refilling while being offline is a bug and is being fixed for the next update which we will roll out very soon.

We're sorry to see that you jumped to this conclusion without reaching out and questioning it first instead of quite a heavy accusation.

If you are in need of assistance or you would like to provide us more feedback or suggestions, please reach out to us at support@mergecrafter.com

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2021-07-01, version 1.1.0*

Pie

### 2/5 — WAY OVERDUE for new land expansions

*2026-07-24, version 2.3.10*

Lost ALL my progress due to my android LG phone being bricked and wasn’t able to transfer my save data over to the iphone… i just want the “paid islands” restored PLEASE!!! i shouldn’t have to spend ANOTHER $50+ just to re-buy that which i already spent IRL money on… PLEASE!!! also when will the PURPLE CRYSTALS with 9999hp finally be breakable…

SOMEONE UPDATE THE WEBSITE… IT SHOWS THE LAST UPDATE WAS 2 YEARS AGO!!! does anyone at the dev level even read these anymore???

### 2/5 — WAY OVERDUE for new land expansions

### 2/5 — Pesters to buy addons too often, and unclear how to preserve enchantments correctly while merging

*2022-06-22, version 1.7.2*

My breaking point on this game came when I had an amazing enchantment(which costs the runic dust, one of the things they’re constantly trying to pressure you to buy) get replaced by a crappy one when I merged the tools. I made very certain I was merging with the enchantment I wanted, which worked every time when merging unenchanted stuff

### 2/5 — Was ok at first..

*2022-03-28, version 1.5.6*

But then I noticed im spending massive amounts of money( real n fake) for a MAYBE chance at axing stuff like gold mounds or blossom trees i spent money on unlocking…? Maybe I’m missing something here. I go to reforge  “enchant” yo only go backwards in power! So takes away power AFTER I pay money hoping to gain power ….otherwise play repetitive boards for the maybe a chance again. 

I dont get it…got me i guess. Good for people who can play all day to roll the dice at maybe enhancing tools.

### 2/5 — Cant load

*2022-01-24, version 1.5.1*

While this game has been fun, after the recent update whenever I try to open the game it completely freezes after the loading bar fills up
