### 2/5 — Ads

*2026-09-07, version 3.8*

Fun game. One problem. THE ADS. WHY DO I HAVE TO DEAL WITH MORE AI SLOP ADS, AND WORST IF ALL, IT IS DELIBERATELY COPYING MINECRAFT. WORST YET, THE ADS HAVE HUMANOID “CREEPERS”, “ZOMBIES” THAT DON’T DO ANYTHING BUT STAND STILL AS “STEVE” KILLS THEM ALL, AND THE “ENDER DRAGON,” IF YOU CAN EVEN CALL IT THAT, BEING RIDEN BY “STEVE.” PLEASE FIX YOUR ADS. But overall it’s a fun, slow paced game 😁. I also saw an ad for a completely different game, for Minetap, get it right Minetap! 🤣🤣🤣

### 4/5 — Bruh

*2026-09-03, version 3.8*

Ok look great game but at least put in the description “parody of Minecraft” like, if not, that’s just a straight out ripoff. Copyright ©️ MINECRAFT RIPOFF IM TELLING MOJANG!!!!!!!!!

### 2/5 — Amazing and then…

*2026-08-19, version 3.8*

This game was genuinely so fun I was playing it everyday and then the devs added energy why do game creators do this you add energy which gives people less time to play which gives you less money! Make it make sense.

### 2/5 — DONT GET RESPTASION

*2026-08-02, version 3.8*

I waisted two hours getting my first enchantment for my gold helmet it did not happen

### 4/5 — Watchtower??

*2026-08-02, version 3.8*

Overall pretty good, fun and a good past time. However, for some reason the quest for watch tower stage 3 will not complete for me.

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2026-07-17, version 3.8*

I was making the observer block from my chests, then after upgrading from a diamond platebody to a nether ore platebody, my chest only contains acacia logs?? Downgraded by 6 blocks?? How on earth does that work, I can only assume it’s a bug because that is ridiculous

### 4/5 — I like this actually

*2026-06-28, version 3.8*

So it’s actually a good rip off minecraft I just use it to pass time by playing songs on my headphones, going into airplane mode so that I can skip all the adds, and playing nonstop. The only thing is that I can’t scroll far enough through the village to get to this one random Build that looks like a bridge. Maybe I just need more progress. Definitely expand the energy to like 1000 also. Otherwise, awesome game

### 3/5 — I’m crashing a lot

*2026-06-14, version 3.8*

I played this game years ago and I never crashed it was a super fun game I even finished the game at the time. Now I come back 2026 and they put a pay wall to the time you can play, plus I keep crashing I’m not sure why but my screen lags and the screen is shaking please fix this game it has potential to be better again.

### 4/5 — Mon avis

*2026-06-11*

C’est très sympa et est un jeu plutôt amusant quand tu as rien à faire mais j’ai remarqué qu’elle que problème comme la table d’enchante qui des problèmes de duplication d’armure et d’armes se qui est assez perturbant mais aussi j’ai pense qu’il faudrait montrer qu’une armure,la pioche ou l’arme est enchantée car sa prête à confusion puisqu’on sais pas si sa a marché etc mais malgré tout ça je trouve le jeu bien et agréable à jouer.

### 4/5 — Lost my progress

*2026-06-10, version 3.8*

I’d basically done all there was to do in this game and uninstalled it, for fear it was never getting an update. Lo’ and behold, update! But the game wants me to claw my way back up through the progression. I was wondering if I’m screwed out of luck?

### 3/5 — Баг

*2026-05-31*

Игра неплохая, затягивает, но этот забагованный стол зачарований уже просто надоел: кладешь предмет, нажимаешь “enchant”, опыт забирают, а зачарование не дают. нафиг оно такое надо

### 3/5 — Неоч

*2026-05-31*

Задумка хорошая,но надо убрать энергию.кучу времени делал берёзу,а этот житель говорит,что она подойдёт для сторожевой вышки.как ему объяснить,что я не буду тратить блоки на восстановление всей деревни,а только узкого спектра домов?я его прибить хочу.Я НЕ БУДУ ВОССТАНАВЛИВАТЬ ДЕРЕВНЮ,А МЕНЯ ЗАСТАВЛЯЮТ

### 4/5 — Думал, будет куча рекламы, и без доната не пройти

*2026-05-16*

В целом все хорошо, но добавьте что-то наподобие подземелья (притом можно несколько), те же квесты выполнить сложно из-за редкого появления мобов

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте. Спасибо вам за ваш отзыв и обратную связь! Это действительно важно для нас, и мы сделаем выводы по обновлению проекта. Наша игра все еще находится в разработке, поэтому мы обязательно сделаем её лучше для вас!

### 4/5 — Keine Möglichkeit, die Werbung zu entfernen

*2026-05-14*

Ich finde das Spiel sehr gut und würde die Entwickler gerne unterstützen aber sie haben ein Rabatt eingebaut der einen Fehler hat und wenn man den Countdown abwarten um es dann für den vollen Preis zu holen bekommt man sofort wieder den Rabatt und man kann es nicht freischalten. Ich würde gern dafür bezahlen.

**Developer response:** Hallo. Vielen Dank für Ihre Rückmeldung. Es ist wirklich wichtig für uns und wir werden uns Notizen machen, um unser Projekt zu verbessern. Unser Spiel befindet sich noch in der Entwicklung, daher suchen wir nach dem besten Spielerlebnis. Bleiben Sie dran für weitere Updates.

### 4/5 — Really good game

*2026-05-11, version 3.8*

Amazing game has a lot of ads, but it makes up for that, by not forcing micro transactions you can progress without needing to spend $10 every 30 minutes but they still allow you to buy stuff (at fair prices) if you need that option very good game They would have a perfect game if they had a little less ads. Also, the Tavern looks cool I can’t wait for the update

### 4/5 — Souci d’amélioration

*2026-05-07, version 3.8*

Le jeu est cool sauf que j’ai un mission que je ne peux plus validé car j’ai fait évoluer mon bâtiment deux fois de suite dommage car j’ai tous validé sauf sa

### 1/5 — Longtime Player

*2026-09-07, version 3.8*

I started playing this a long time ago way before the overhauls and new systems that are in the game today. Coming back to it and starting over was refreshing. The new stamina system was a little irritating at first but I see the necessity for it. The one thing I don’t like is the maxed out lighthouse upgrade that’s supposed to give a “high” chance at emeralds every time you merge a block has not triggered once in over 400 merges. It used to trigger very frequently. Other than that one minor grievance the game seems to be in good shape and the events keep things interesting when waiting on stamina to freshen back up


Update: now experiencing game breaking glitches and there nowhere to submit bug reports

### 1/5 — Hate

*2026-07-18, version 3.8*

I pared 1 dollar and it do not open the chest and I did it 3 more times and it stell did not so I told them and that gave me 0:01 money and I lost my job!!!! I hate this game!!!!!!!!😡🤬🤬😡

### 1/5 — Don’t Play

*2026-06-10, version 3.8*

Forced ads, energy cap for F2P players and no cloud saving of any kind but they can implement a $160 a year subscription, yikes.

### 1/5 — Disgusting ai slop

*2026-05-14, version 3.8*

I used to play this game on an off until I got a new ad for it that was pure ai. Awful work

### 1/5 — Either portal

*2026-05-10, version 3.8*

The **** either portal says heaven portal

### 1/5 — Subscribed

*2026-05-01, version 3.8*

The game was great but as soon as I paid for the subscription, they took my money and subscription away

### 1/5 — Заплатил за подписку, а она пропала через 5 часов

*2026-04-28, version 3.7*

После пополнения подписки, я вышел до вечера, а после захожу а ничего от подписки нету, бесконечной энергии нету, ничего нету

### 1/5 — Very disappointed in how this game changed

*2026-04-26, version 3.7*

Note: I give games ratings based on if they’re suitable and fun to play without any monetary purchases. 
TL:DR - Do not bother playing this game if you are free to play like me. Game mechanics limited by ads, energy system, and pay to play features.

I’ve played this game years ago and essentially completed it (reached final mergable block and fully built village) so I deleted it from my phone.
Recently I saw an ad for it and thought I should download it and play it for nostalgia’s sake. 

I knew there were compulsory ads before, so I turned off internet and the game still worked luckily. But now, with the energy system making you have to wait a period of time before tapping blocks, playing the game has become extremely slow and frankly unfun to play. I would have to come back after like 15 minutes just to play for 1 minute.

And to rub it in your face, the game advertises a subscription plan to remove the energy bar. A SUBSCRIPTION PLAN for a MOBILE GAME? Unbelievable. 

So you have compulsory ads, video ad rewards popping up everywhere, and an energy system that prevents you from progressing the game unless you want to pay or wait a long time for energy to recover.

Not to mention, the energy system essentially makes monster contracts impossible. The contracts require you to kill a certain amount of monsters and/or retrieve certain loot drops. However, when you encounter tougher enemies, the weaker ones barely show up anymore. With the contracts having such low time restrictions and the energy system limiting the amount of playtime, there’s no way you can possibly finish a contract in time (especially normal contracts, good luck finding skeletons and bones in 20 minutes).

The harder contracts have a time constraint of 4 hours iirc, which may seem like it’s enough time. Again, the higher block you achieve, the larger the monster spawn pool and the smaller chance of finding the monster you want to hunt. Monster loot drops are not guaranteed either, so have fun fighting 1 skeleton every 15 minutes and getting absolutely nothing useful within 2 hours. Maybe you’ll get lucky and find a single bone within that time. You’ll need like 2 or 3 of those to complete some of the quests btw.

Since the skeletons barely spawn the higher up you go, you can’t get the bone bow unless you grinded early on or grind a really long time at the later stages of the game.

The “high chance of receiving emeralds from merging” perk from the lighthouse in the village isn’t very high at all. Most of the time, you get nothing per merge. I would assume the drop rate is around 0.5% or lower. 
Recharging energy costs 20 gems, so just simply playing the game for one session (500 total energy, 5-8 taps per block) isn’t sustainable. 

The village upgrades that don’t require a certain block discovery by progressing are usually useless, since most of the buildings require supplies to trade for items. At the very most, you would get 20 supplies every 8 minutes if you have both garden/farms fully upgraded without emeralds. Some stations charge from 5 supplies up to 100. Emerald exchange (max upgrade) is 2 emeralds per 100 supplies. If you were to use only the lighthouse emerald exchange for the energy refills, it would take 400 minutes (6 hr 40 min) to get 20 emeralds. As if you would want to stick around for that long to collect the supplies in a timely manner…

I’m very disappointed. Should’ve known that advertised games like this would end up being a pain to play.

### 1/5 — Ender elite

*2026-04-21, version 3.7*

I purchase 1week elite. 20minute and its gone

### 1/5 — Keeping the purchase i purchased

*2026-04-19, version 3.7*

I purchased the 9.99/week gamepass but once I left the app it disappeared and asked me to buy it again even tho I still had the subscription so I could have unlimited energy and no ads.

### 5/5 — Achat unique ?

*2026-05-16*

Bravo pour cette auberge, ça fait plaisir de voir du contenu ajouté enfin à ce jeu ! 
Pourriez-vous proposer un achat unique pour le premium, je suis prêt à mettre le prix, mais 99€/an c’est beaucoup trop, je ne pense pas que les joueurs se jettent dessus…
J’ai teste votre autre jeu, Mage’s secrets, et quel plaisir de voir un VRAI NoAds à dispo ! Pourriez-vous faire pareil pour Minetap s’il vous plait ? Un Vrai NoAds, et sans interruptions qui propose des ventes en promo ou un abonnement !

**Developer response:** Salut! Veuillez contacter le support de l'Appstore pour un remboursement. Malheureusement, ils ne pourront vous rembourser que les paiements pour lesquels un remboursement est possible. De plus, toute la progression du jeu n'est stockée que dans la mémoire du téléphone et est complètement perdue lorsqu'elle est supprimée.

### 5/5 — I love this game!😍

*2026-05-11, version 3.8*

I’ve played this game for a few days now and I already love it. I’m already at the nether right bricks but I won’t say the way how it actually said because it has H anyways this game is beautiful. The graphics music, the backgrounds changing the characters. This is the best game I’ve ever saw on the App Store.
