The first planet name is Gaea in this game and Gaia in MLU. I have played two versions mobile and switch of MLU—yes there are ads or buy up in the mobile version, but you get bucks to use throughout the game for anything’s, not just one item. The ads in MHP are extremely long or you can pay a bunch of money for everything including your power up cards. You get three, after that, you can delete a card or pay $2.99 to get another card slot. This particular game can end up costing a small fortune if you chose to pay for each upgrade in the game. I quit this game and deleted. I this is a startup and they need the money to develop but, that’s a lot of money someone will have to pay to play this game. ### 3/5 — Naja *2025-01-07* Also das spiel ist keine 1zu1 kopie von my Little Universe. Das spiel wäre eigentlich gut man bekommt keine Werbung 24/7 reingedrückt. Aber man hat keine Chance effektiv an gold heranzukommen. Entweder man hat glück mit den boostern und 1 ist dabei der bei einen monster kill zufällig was droppt. Ein neues land erkunden geht nicht wenn man die neuen ressourcen nicht abbauen kann. Man kann aber seine ausrüstung nicht verbessern ohne gold und ja 1 kill der vielleicht 1 gold bringt bei benötigten 2000 das dauert lange. Schatztruhen RESPAWNEN NICHT. Das heißt die vlt 100 gold aus der truhe sind kaum was wert. Klar nach der dewise besser als nichts aber dennoch so kann man sich seine neuen spieler vergraulen. Ich bin bei der vorletzten (aktuellen) welt und ich brauchte "nur" 10k gold weil meine Maximum Ausrüstung aus der letzten welt nichts machen konnten. Achja hab ich vergessen zu erwähnen man braucht auch gold für Reliquen/Schreine/Portale zum Öffnen? Das kampfsystem ist auch noch sehr verbuggt. Man steht vor einem gegner und wird verprüggelt da der Charakter nicht angreifen will. Beim Resourcen abbauen wenn ein Gegner kommt egal ob Schwert Spitzhacke oder Axt man macht 0 schaden auf den gegner. Man muss weg laufen und sich im kreise drehen (manchmal) zum angreifen. Bosse sind verbuggt man weicht ihren angriff aus unf bekommt dann den schaden wenn man sich nähert weil man angreifen möchte. Rüstung kann man nur verbessern über irgendwelche marken die man selten bis nie bekommt. My little Universe ist nicht das beste spiel aber man kann dort wenigstens jede ressource farmen ohne probleme. So vergrault man wirklich spieler auf langer sicht ### 3/5 — Good but with faults. *2024-11-15* It.s a great game, similar to My Little Universe and Questopia. Great graphics but for me difficult to play as the game does not fit to screen (iPad), so I lose a lot of the benefits and features on offer. I have deleted the game and downloaded again but sadly I have the same problems. If it wasn’t for this - which massively affects game play - it would have been five stars. ### 2/5 — Sad , deleting soon *2024-08-19* This game is so cute and so fun until you get to the Home Planet the process to get coins to advance is extremely long, and tedious and it takes away the fun from the game. **Developer response:** Hi, we are sorry for the inconvenience caused. We have forwarded your feedback to our development team and product team and will continue to improve our game to deliver a better gaming experience. You can reach us at myhome@fungame.studio with any other feedback. Thanks again! :-) - Melody ### 2/5 — Won’t load *2024-07-21, version 1.20.1* The game is fun to play. However it takes a really long time to load.Most times it will get to 70% and quit. ### 3/5 — Too hard to get coins *2024-07-13, version 1.20.1* The game was great at first but once you reach the 4th planet all of the tool upgrades require copious amounts of gold coins. The problem is it takes a really long time to get enough coins to upgrade each tool and it’s mandatory to upgrade to farm the new materials. Can collect from the piggy bank every 6 hours which yields 900 coins, but the tools need at least 3000 coins to upgrade (EACH!). So it can take over 3 days just to upgrade 1 tool if you check in once a day. ### 4/5 — It would be nice to have an update *2024-04-29* The last update with the character’s home planet was nice, but tedious. I completed everything hoping that there would be another planet to get into, but I’ve been waiting at the “new levels coming soon” message for a few weeks now. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you very much for your kind support. We’ve forwarded your feedback to our team and will try our best to launch more levels. Please stay tuned. If anything else, please reach us at myhome@fungame.studio. We will continue to update our app to deliver the best user experience around. Thanks again for your support and patience! - Melody ### 3/5 — Has potential *2024-04-22* I like this game. However, it needs some fine-tuning. The icons are currently piled on top of each other on the screen. This makes it very hard to access them. Also, I've had to shut down the whole game just to get out of other screens because I can't find any other way. None of the screens will scroll, so whatever is at the bottom under the ads is unreachable. Hopefully, these bugs will get worked out. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for leaving us a review! We will forward your feedback and suggestion to our product team and continue to optimize our game to deliver a better and better gaming experience. Please feel free to reach us at myhome@fungame.studio with any other feedback. Thanks again for your support and patience! :-) - Melody ### 2/5 — Tiny *2024-04-03, version 1.20.1* I need 65.7k blue boards in order to upgrade my tool to move on in this game, I am offered 200 for each ad that I watch! Why! I’m not gonna watch 70 ads just to get a too and if I go back to the only planet that makes them it’s gonna take twice as long because the refine takes forever and also the amount of product to make 1 board is ridiculous hi! I would just buy the tool but you don’t even offer that option! I’ve played and opened most of the planets but this being stuck on the home planet is absolutely ridiculous. Who ever created this game needs a reality check! So Rediculus 🤨 ### 4/5 — The blue coins *2024-03-27* Love the new updates, but now my main question is how do we get more blue coins to upgrade our armours? I am on the planet Poseidon, and the upgrading the helmet is at least 1k blue coin, but I have 7k blue coins. I see the blue coins going faster with the armour upgrades **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your kind support! You can earn more blue coins by completing additional tasks on each planet. Additionally, we have forwarded your feedback to our development and product team, and we will continue to optimize our game to provide a better and better player experience. If you have any other suggestions or questions, please feel free to contact us at myhome@fungame.studio. Thank you again for your support! - Melody ### 3/5 — Love it…but *2024-03-11* I love all games like this…I have 3 others I play like this. This one seems a little more unrealistic. Again, I play these games a lot and I like the challenges, however when you have to fight an enemy (4 at a time) and when you strike them it’s -14 and when they strike you it’s -74 it takes a lot longer…no big deal. When they spawn in 90 seconds and you can’t collect resources it makes it very difficult to continue playing. Wanna upgrade your sword, nope…not all the resources are available to you yet. I will probably give it a little more time to make up my mind **Developer response:** Hi, thank you very much for leaving us a review. We have forwarded your feedback to our development team and product team, and will continue to update our game to deliver a better user experience. You can reach us at myhome@fungame.studio with any other feedback. Thanks again! :-) - Melody ### 3/5 — Cost for upgrade too high *2024-03-09, version 1.19.1* Please lower the amount of blue planks needed for upgrading axe to level 43 67.5k is impossible please ### 3/5 — 5 minutes on and then trouble *2024-03-06* Once you get to the third planet you play 5 minutes, then need to upgrade. Each upgrade takes thousands of coins which you cannot earn unless you stop playing for two days. While offline, you earn 184 coins per hour… Who does that?!? **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for leaving us a review! We are sorry for any inconvenience caused. We have forwarded your feedback to our product team and continue to optimize our game to deliver a better and better gaming experience. Please feel free to reach us at myhome@fungame.studio if you have any other questions or feedback. Thanks a lot! :-) - Melody ### 4/5 — My home planet *2024-02-09* I really enjoy playing this game. Very relaxing. I just wish I could play it on my iPad. It just doesn’t quite fit. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you very much for your kind support! You can download the game by visiting the following link: https://myhomeplanet.gurugame.ai/. If you encounter any difficulties during the download or have any further inquiries, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at myhome@fungame.studio. We will try our best to make the game right for you! Thanks again. - Melody ### 4/5 — Good but repetitive *2024-01-20, version 1.17.1* Fun game to kill time, but each planet gets repetitive. ### 2/5 — Missing resources/uogrades *2024-01-09* Hello, when I downloaded this game I thought it was fun. It was a great time killer. However, as I progress I notice it takes a lot more resources for upgrades therefore it take more time to progress, this being said I’m not sure what is going on but the last three times I logged in the weapons I’ve upgraded have reverted back to the last level and to make it worse, it doesn't give back all the resource it took. So now I have to regather everything and re-upgrade everything, that is a complete waste of time and I’m about to no play the game anymore. **Developer response:** Hi, so sorry about this issue. If it's not too much trouble, could you please kindly take a screen recording or some relevant screenshots regarding the whole process of this issue, and send it to myhome@fungame.studio? It would be very helpful for us to locate the issue and make the app right for you. Thank you very much for the support! :-) - Melody ### 3/5 — Enjoyable but hard to level up equipment *2023-12-28* I really enjoy this game, it keeps me occupied a lot of the time but the only downside is that the chests do not respawn and therefore it’s extremely difficult to obtain coins. These coins are necessary to level up your equipment and progress in the game. So if you want to make in app purchases to get coins go ahead but it would be nice to not be forced to do that. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you very much for leaving us a review.

Thanks again! :-) - Melody ### 3/5 — Stuck *2023-12-12, version 1.15.1* Still having issues with game stopping at 70% ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Knockoff… everything *2025-10-15* This is a ripoff of My Little Universe. At least you could make unique biomes. You literally copied the uranium sound effect and made it the rock sound effect. You made the color of the level two axe the same color. This doesn’t feel inspired, it feels like a mission to make my little universe a dead game. ### 1/5 — Sad , deleting soon *2024-10-21, version 1.20.1* Deleting if you don’t give us new planets to explore, it’s been long enough. ### 1/5 — Problème d’écran *2024-03-10* Le jeu pourrait être bien mais problème de calibration d’écran sur iPad Impossible de jouer normalement et pas mal d’option sont inategnables D’où ma note de 1 étoile **Developer response:** Bonjour, nous sommes vraiment désolés pour un tel inconvénient. Si cela ne vous pose pas trop de problèmes, pourriez-vous s'il vous plaît envoyer à myhome@fungame.studio un enregistrement d'écran ou une vidéo du problème que vous avez mentionné ? Nous examinerons la question plus en détail et ferons de notre mieux pour que le jeu vous convienne. Si vous avez autre chose, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter. Merci encore pour votre patience et votre soutien ! :-) - Mélodie ### 1/5 — Says an update is available *2024-02-06* The game won’t even open. It says an update is available but when I click update it takes me to App Store and only open is available no update. At least I don’t have to deal with all the ads you are all complaining about. Because I can’t even open the game **Developer response:** Hi, we are so sorry about this issue. We kindly suggest you check your connection with the Internet, then close and reopen our game to see if it helps. If it still doesn't work, could you please take a screen recording or a video regarding the whole process of the issue, and reach us at myhome@fungame.studio?

Thank you very much for the support! :-) - Melody ### 1/5 — My little universe ripoff *2024-02-03, version 1.17.1* Trash ### 1/5 — Keine Verbindung *2023-12-12* Moin, das Spiel verbindet sich nicht mehr mit dem Internet. Lädt nur bis 70% und das war es dann 😡 Hoffe das her das schnell behebt Daher erstmal nur einen Stern **Developer response:** Hallo, ich entschuldige mich für die Unannehmlichkeiten.

Vielen Dank für Ihre Geduld und Ihr Verständnis! :-) - Melodie ### 1/5 — Forced ads *2023-11-27* Another game that would otherwise be amazing going to fail from forcing ads “so it can be free” as if that matters if nobody plays to watch the ads and as if that’s ever been the majority revenue source of mobile games. This isn’t 2005. Somebody paying a dollar here and there makes way more. We can just look those numbers up to know that. This is just greed **Developer response:** Hi, so sorry that the ads bother you. We are now under tremendous pressure from high development and operating costs, so we have to insert some ads to support the further development of this free game. Hope you could understand. We will also try to find a better solution. If anything else, please reach us at myhome@fungame.studio. :-) - Fiona ### 1/5 — Internet Required *2023-10-27, version 1.12.0* Just to force you ads ### 2/5 — Gifts *2024-08-23, version 1.20.1* Can’t exit the daily gifts window there is no place to X out. Need to shut down and reopen app once gift is collected ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — From the start *2025-10-28* I’m glad to play a game with human beings and not just stick people for characters . From the music and falling snowflakes, I know this game is going to be good. 💯 **Developer response:** Hello, we're so glad you're loving our app! Thank you for your support and kind words, it means a lot to us! Let us know at myhome@fungame.studio if you have any suggestions for improvements. :-) - May ### 5/5 — 30th in the world. As of 2024 August. *2024-10-19, version 1.20.1* It’s not like many other games it’s a game so that’s good. All you could fight monsters right now I’m like 30th in the world as of August 2024 10th download it. I already did it at five see ya? ### 5/5 — Great Idle Game *2024-07-14* I’ve played My Little Universe and Dream Dale, and this is just as great! Collect resources, build the world, fight slimes. ### 5/5 — So fun! *2024-02-23* I’m currently kinda addicted to the game haha 😂 It’s just relaxing after a hard day of work. ### 5/5 — So far so good *2024-02-03* Been playing for a couple days and really enjoying it. ### 5/5 — Five Stars *2024-01-15* Wonderful game.
