Now I can’t gather food to make omelettes and my pets became hungry. Hopefully this will get fixed in an update soon. ### 1/5 — Neopass broke game *2026-08-17, version 1.14.5* When I play with a Neopass account the game gets stuck on a loading screen when I select a region. If I redownload and play without logging in it starts fine, but when I login again it get stuck loading. Support has been unresponsive. ### 1/5 — Modo decoração não salva as alterações *2026-08-08* O modo decoração já é ridiculamente mal otimizado e ele ainda nao salva nenhuma das minhas alterações, desculpa mas isso é uma piada de mal gosto? **Developer response:** Hi! We’re sorry to hear you’re experiencing this problem. Please reach out to our support team at [https://talesofdacardia.support.neopets.com/hc/en-us/requests/new] so we can assist you further. Thanks, TNT ### 1/5 — Good but not enough to do *2026-08-05* The game is fun enough. I got stuck after 2 days due to the event going on and a section of my island not being unlocked yet. However, once I managed to get past that road block I was able to complete all of the main quests, side quests, and events quests within a couple of days. That being said, I am now done everything possible. I will continue to play solely for the neopass rewards though. If you don’t play neopets or don’t have neopass I don’t recommend the game honestly. For a game that has been out as long as it has been I am shocked by how glitchy the game still is, and at the lack of storyline/progress you can make. Edit - my neopass unlinked in April and I still can’t reconnect it. The game is pointless without it as there is no game, the neopets awards are the only reason to play. I have sent in numerous tickets and the support team has had no solutions and continues to close the tickets without resolving anything. I have about 3 months worth of rewards sitting there that I can’t collect. Don’t download this - it’s not worth it. **Developer response:** Hi! We’re sorry to hear you’re experiencing this problem. Please reach out to our support team at [https://talesofdacardia.support.neopets.com/hc/en-us/requests/new] so we can assist you further. Thanks, TNT ### 1/5 — Meh *2026-08-02, version 1.14.0* It wasn’t that bad at first, but that main story line is forever paused at this point. They continue to do events but have no additional ways to earn pearly neggs. The pirate guy’s wares have gotten insanely expensive, likely in an effort to get folks to pay for the pearly negg packages. The wheel spin gives you site items, until you get to the 10/10 spin, then you conveniently get an app item, yet you see the same users consistent having the rare site items from the 10/10 spins :/ something is super fishy and unbalanced there & devs are not checking it out. At least this app doesn’t crash consistently but it still glitches randomly when you go to get the 5 free pearly neggs daily. (Also why 5 such a low amount that it is a waste of time) ### 2/5 — Fun buuut… *2026-07-31, version 1.14.0* I can’t complete my tasks because the wood logs and water droplets barely ever spawn from debris, and there’s no way to create them. I’ve been stuck on two tasks for over a week now, even with playing every single day and collecting debris several times a day. There needs to be a way to make logs & water droplets so these tasks can be completed. I haven’t even been able to get to level 3 because of this!! Also, the lighthouse glitches into the ground constantly and looks horrendous. ### 1/5 — Happy to Steal Your Money! *2026-07-30* Update: After WEEKS of trying to get a person to talk to me they cancelled my ticket due to inactivity. Then finally after two months a person looks at my problem and they obviously did not read my email and just told me the problem was I have an old version? That’s because the video I sent was from TWO MONTHS ago. They do not care. Nothing will make them care about this game. What a joke!! This is a cute fun game but when we ran into problems basically immediately they were no help! A glitch in the game has cause us to be stuck and unable to complete the first level! Multiple dollars and multiple help tickets sent to them and we have received one single reply in over a month! They don’t mind taking your money but if the game is broke. They sure don’t want to try and help! **Developer response:** Hi! We’re sorry to hear you’re experiencing this problem.

Thanks, TNT ### 3/5 — You need an update *2026-07-23* I really enjoyed the game but In my opinion if you want to make a game more fun,enjoyable,interesting ,engaging and entertaining then you need some updates and I think the game should add a home for the ant guy and the red fox thing so that players can find out more about both of there backstory that way YouTubers might make videos about the game so that other players can get to know the backstory about the ant guy and the red fox thing so the game can be more popular **Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for the review and for sharing your feedback with us! Our development team will definitely consider your opinion and make the game better. Thanks, TNT ### 1/5 — Awful *2026-07-23* Not only are there only two chapters that you can beat in a single day (downloaded and just started playing yesterday. Beat all the chapters available), but this app is extremely buggy. Things you fix look like there's no change. Ariel keeps asking you to color new Neopets homes red, even though you already changed their color to something else. Or what if you like the default blue? Nope. She doesn't accept that. Her quest will stay until you talk to her and craft yet another stupid red paint roller and then you have to craft a different one after you are FORCED to change the color of the house to red, so you wasted at least one essence and roller depending on if you had changed the color before or not. I have wasted TWO now. This is stupid. I have tapped a pet to talk to them, just for them to slingshot into the rocks and be unable to be spoken to and they don't move until I relaunch the app. I just started playing today and have experienced way more bugs than a game that has been out for a couple of years should have. It's terrible. The ONLY thing that makes this app even remotely worthwhile is the app exclusive items you can get on your Neopets account if you have your Neopass connected to it. That's it. At least Faerie Fragments is playable. This one is buggier than a beta test. This is not a full game. If you are going to release a game that only has a chapter or two available, you should be adding more with updates. This game did not only recently come out. It has been out for a minimum of a year. This game has been sitting unfinished for so long. It is going down the same route as Faerie Fragments: nearly abandoned and staying 'alive' only because of events. **Developer response:** Hi!

Thanks, TNT ### 2/5 — Boring and glitchy:( *2026-07-14, version 1.14.0* I’ve played neopets since I was a kid. This app is a good way to earn neopoints for your account thru neopass, but that’s pretty much it. The game is slow and pretty glitchy which is frustrating. The content itself and the minigames are also quite boring and not engaging. The process of building enough decorations to actually make your space cute, growing produce, making omelettes, etc is so slowwww and dragged out. And I am NOT paying any of my real money to speed it up. It just makes it so boring that you lose interest really quickly unless you’re looking for a way to earn extra NP. ## Frequently asked questions about Neopets ### What is Neopets: Tales of Dacardia?
