This app rocks! ### 5/5 — Best Game Ever. *2026-07-26, version 1.6.2* This little pixelated world is full of discoveries waiting to be revealed. Bugs, birds, insects, dogs, cats…even humans! Take a picture, and the fun will begin. ### 5/5 — Such a fun game!!!! *2026-07-26, version 1.6.2* I love the 8-bit feel and collecting all the plants and animals in my area! I keep learning new names for the plants too! Like I didn’t know a monstera is also a Swiss cheese plant. ### 5/5 — Pure vibes *2026-07-25, version 1.6.2* I love the pixel art style and the cozy idea of discovering nature while building your own little world. It's relaxing, creative, and makes every walk more fun. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2026-07-25, version 1.6.2* I like this a lot! It’s entertaining and I love it I can go around and learn what plants and animals are in my area and it’s fun to build my own sanctuary! I hope you download this app and help this for now relatively small indie team! ### 5/5 — SO FUN *2026-07-24* wow. this developer is fantastic. the ease of gameplay and the graphics are awesome!!! i think buying and selling function should be cheaper than 100 matters and there should be more achievements when you unlock more plants. also, please have the ability to sell items and harvest too for coins🙏or we get a few matters back somehow. **Developer response:** Thank you so much!! 😊 That really means a lot to hear! And thanks for the suggestions! We’re actively working on adding many more achievements in upcoming updates. We want there to be a steady stream of things to unlock and work toward as you continue exploring. Longer term, we’re also exploring deeper progression systems. It’s something we’ve wanted as a core part of the game, but with millions of species, it requires a lot of careful thought—from balancing rewards and interactions to making sure every addition feels meaningful. Thanks again for playing and for taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback! ### 5/5 — BEST THING EVER !! *2026-07-23, version 1.6.2* I love this app so much it’s so enjoyable and the devs are wonderful at there job please never let this app die 😭 ### 5/5 — So, so fun! *2026-07-23* Oh my gosh, I downloaded this as soon as I saw it. It's such a unique way to game-ify being outdoorsy and learning about nature. I love the concept and interactivity of being able to build our own mini world with our finds as well. It's helping me to really be present in my surroundings and make my day like a fun little treasure hunt. Normally I'd go ad-free but I'm happy to watch ads if it supports this app and team. Thank you for thinking of such a creative app!! It's only been a few hours of using but it's my new favorite find! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for supporting us at this early stage! Happy adventuring! 🐧💚 ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-07-23* I just love the old fashioned style. And adds are not that long you barely have to wait 10 seconds. Easy to make a account and understand how do stuff. Great for people who need to get outside. Thank you for making this app. **Developer response:** It’s been a pleasure and thank you so much for supporting. Happy adventuring! 🐧💚 ### 5/5 — Wish I had this app 10 years ago *2026-07-23* I have traveled a lot and would have loved to capture sea turtles in Hawaii or moose in Colorado, and so many others across the americas and add them to my sanctuary. Seriously, this game is so satisfying to me. As far as the devs, I can tell you that my friend accidentally deleted Gentoo from his sanctuary and couldn’t get him back. I suggested that he might report it as a bug and they responded right away and restored him and promised a fix for that in a future update. **Developer response:** Thank you so much! It really means a lot to hear that. Sounds like it’s time for another adventure to those spots… your sanctuary is waiting for those sea turtles and moose. 🐧💚 ### 5/5 — Super fun *2026-07-21, version 1.6.1* This is like Pokémon snap but in real life. it’s well made, and fun to learn about the plants and animals around me! ### 5/5 — Adorable *2026-07-21, version 1.6.1* Super cute game! ### 5/5 — Gives me a reason to take long walks :) *2026-07-19* I’m not the sort to write reviews, but I’ve been having a hard time lately trying to get into exercise and outside time. This app was the perfect catalyst for me to start going out and taking pictures because I live in a neighborhood with a reserve forest next to it—and it’s been amazing! I’ve been walking and running consistently now because I’ve been going out and catching wildlife with my camera. I’ve never been happier 🌻 **Developer response:** Thanks so much for sharing this—it genuinely means a lot to us. 🌻 We’re so happy Pixel Wild has helped make getting outside something you look forward to. We find ourselves doing the same thing, taking different streets and exploring new places just to see what we can discover. We hope your adventures keep bringing you plenty of amazing finds, and we have an exciting roadmap ahead that we can’t wait to share with you! ### 5/5 — Great game! *2026-07-18, version 1.6.1* This app is so fun to use. I’m learning so much about different plants. I was never interested in plants before! You can make this game better by Adding more languages 🙏 like Arabic, wink! ### 5/5 — Search collect real species you find! *2026-07-18* Kids and adults can have a ton of fun with this game while learning about the world around you. You take a picture of anything living you can find, and get a digital version of it to care for in your garden. A lot of facts for everything you find. Even if you live somewhere you don’t think there’s much wildlife, you’ll be surprised how much you find once you search **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind review! We love hearing that Pixel Wild is helping people of all ages discover just how much life is all around them. It’s amazing how a little curiosity can turn even familiar places into new adventures. 💚 ### 5/5 — From “What Is That?” to Instant Answers *2026-07-17* I absolutely love this app! I’m often curious about the plants, flowers, and other species I come across, but rarely know exactly what they are. This app has made it incredibly easy and fun to identify them instantly. Whether I’m exploring locally or traveling somewhere new, it’s become one of my favorite tools for learning about the natural world around me. I’ve discovered so many species I would have otherwise walked right past without a second thought. It’s educational, easy to use, and has made outdoor adventures even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone who loves exploring and learning new things! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We love hearing that Pixel Wild is helping you notice and learn about species you might have otherwise walked past. We hope it continues to make every walk, trip, and adventure a little more curious and memorable. 💚 ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-07-17, version 1.6.0* I love animals and plants so it’s a fun app to use I like walking around looking for stuff I feel like you should add finding rocks too ### 5/5 — Pole world *2026-07-15* Pixel world has added a nice touch to all of my trips I’m constantly on the road and don’t have anything to do it’s fun and enjoyable and you don’t have to dedicate actual time to it I would love to see more of the same style app maybe one for cars or other things like that. **Developer response:** Thank you so much! We love hearing that Pixel Wild has become part of your travels and that it fits so naturally into your day. See you on your next adventures then! ### 5/5 — Animal crossing IRL *2026-07-15, version 1.5.6* I love this app!!! Like seriously ### 5/5 — Very fun for a home body *2026-07-15* This is a great game! I usually live on my couch but this app makes me want to take pictures of the animals around my house. Its so cool to see the plants and animals turn into cute pixle pictures. It is also very accurate. I gave it a picture of a obscure fish (it was a rare type of wolffish) and it was able to identify it quite quickly. The only down side is that you have to take a pretty clear picture of the animal/plant. It took me two or three trys for some animals cause they were too blurry. I find it funny that you can’t fool the identification thing with “fake” pictures from the internet. Its a really good app. Hats off to the developers **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words and support! It means a lot to our team to hear that Pixel Wild is encouraging you to explore and discover the life around you. Close-up photos can make a big difference because some species are separated by tiny details, but we’re glad you’ve been enjoying the experience. Thanks for being part of the journey! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 3/5 — Wonderful concept, iffy execution *2026-07-14, version 1.5.6* I think it’ll get better with time, but sometimes it identifies wrong, and sometimes it’d be useful if it had multiple reference photos instead of one. Sometimes cannot identify at all, in which case you have to tell it what it is yourself which sort of defeats the point ### 5/5 — Amazing !!! *2026-08-16* I seriously love this app !!! The ability to add my pets is probably my favorite thing ever. I love that you build your own little world out of things that you genuinely find yourself. it feels like an adventure or a safari hunt. its so fun, and it really brings out my love and adoration for animals and plants. learning the taxonomy is priceless!! seriously a revolutionary app for adventurers and young scouts!! i cant wait to share this with my friends and family. **Developer response:** These words mean so much for us! Thank you so much for adventuring with us 🐧💚 ### 5/5 — Amazing way to discover nature *2026-08-15* I came across this randomly on the App Store and omg, I am obsessed!! Any time I see a new bug or bird or cool plant I’m immediately like “I need to see what this is!!” And open the app to scan it. I haven’t explored the game aspect much, but this app is a 5 star for just the discovery feature alone. Absolutely recommend this to anyone curious about nature around them **Developer response:** We really appreciate it and happy adventuring! ### 5/5 — Fun, Creative, Educational, Motivating *2026-08-10* I've only tried this for a day, and so far I’ve had quite a bit of fun scanning many things around my home and learning what they are. It motivated me to go out for a walk and have fun with it. My mother and niece even got into it, pointing at new things to “capture” and making a game of it. I’ve also never been good at identifying weeds or knowing which ones to pull out, and I learned some info on those plants to help me identify them better and garden. This game even amazingly identified a dead animal that kind of looked like a dragon in its corpse form I found while I was out walking. **Developer response:** Thank you for learning about the life around us with us! And we’re really happy you got a couple others to join on the adventure 🐧💚 ### 5/5 — I am obsessed with this app *2026-08-09* I legit tell all of my friends about it I love the little pixelated jawns and learning about all the stuff around me!!! the sanctuary is so perfect I love being able to put all my favorite finds in my own perfect oasis. freaking awesome idea and executed so well **Developer response:** 🐧💚 we’re really glad you’re enjoying our little version of adventuring :) ### 5/5 — LOVE THIS *2026-08-05* Wow I am obsessed with this app already. Was just scrolling through the App Store looking for something new and interesting, when this caught my eye! I love this idea so much! Encourages me to be more aware of everything around me! So fun and cute, definitely recommend! About to get all my friends to download it so I can see what they catch :) **Developer response:** Glad to you have aboard adventuring the world and soon more of your friends! 🐧💚 ### 5/5 — Amazing !!! *2026-08-02* I seriously love this app !!!
