I enjoy the non sensical world. Strangely calming and intriguing. ### 5/5 — Silly but fun. *2024-06-02, version 2.1* I am blind and use voiceover for the iPhone, and this game is accessible. It is silly, but a fun little game if you have something you want to do to pass the time. ### 5/5 — Fun *2024-04-27, version 2.1* It’s a nice way to spend 1 to five minutes. You slowly get better letting you play more in the unique settings each day holds ### 5/5 — I’m not sure what to make of this game yet *2023-10-25, version 2.0* But I’m definitely enjoying it, and it’s pretty fantastic to have a new experience. ### 5/5 — Please add more *2023-09-23* I enjoy this game a lot I have the two worlds per day and the nocturnal expansion I love it so much please I want more also please create a Discord that way other people who enjoy this game can get together anyway please keep up the great work and I’ll keep throwing money your way :-) ### 5/5 — Cracked game. Enjoyable. *2023-07-25* Still pretty early on. So far the best strategy seems to be to use 9/10 Stamina to unlock as many areas as possible, then camp out and only take ‘loyalty’ events to gain points without losing stamina. Maybe progression will speed up after a few days. ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2023-07-08, version 2.0* Sometimes I don’t know what’s going on but hellll it’s pretty fun 😎 ### 5/5 — A crazy mind game *2023-07-01, version 2.0* This game is a great tool for the rewrite of the original M.K. Ultra Total Undetectable Mind Control Program. Play it to help eradicate the Trauma Based Mind Control Program. ### 5/5 — This is a very fun game. *2023-06-26* This game is fun and it’s impressive to make games in general. I try to make games and it always takes forever for not much fun. This game is fun though, thank you for making it. ### 5/5 — Super fun but lack help *2023-04-20* It’s an incredibly fun game but the lack of a wiki or discord makes things difficult. For example, I initially thought the best strategy was to travel to different locations and do the highest success task but actually it’s rewarding to pick lower success tasks and not travel and stay in the same spot until the two minutes are up. I still feel like there’s gameplay elements I’m missing. Also the game needs some sort of cloud save ### 5/5 — Fun *2023-04-03* Awesome little game, would love to see you develop more, both nice and simple like this game, and more complex. ### 5/5 — Universe in a pocket. *2023-03-30* The game’s as simple as it possibly can be. At the same time the stories are fun and interesting to read. I have a great time playing it while listening to some music. The game’s great! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2023-03-27* I love my shirt farm! Very fun ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pretty Bad *2024-07-05, version 2.1* It’s mostly unintelligible writing with swapped object names for places and characters. ### 1/5 — I really don’t get the point *2022-10-10, version 1.1* This just seems pointless to me. I appreciate the creativity, but not even remotely fun to me. ### 3/5 — I really really like it. *2023-12-01, version 2.1* I really like it but it’s too slow. ### 3/5 — Good concept, slow execution *2023-08-13* If you download this expecting something à la an adventure run by ChatGPT or something on AI Dungeon, you will be somewhat disappointed. The game will give you silly, sometimes funny stories that usually don’t make any sense. This isn’t a bad thing, but it’s important to know what to expect. My one major gripe with the game is that each adventure is far too short. You can finish a story within less than a minute if you read quickly, and once you get to the point that you’re failing more than you succeed, you won’t be reading the text more than once; and in the end this just makes the short games you play feel boring. Of course, that’s if you don’t wait for the timers that occasionally pop up to run out. Yes, they increase the time you spend on the game, but it’s time spent doing nothing, which makes the whole game seem dull. If the devs can change these things, I think that the game would be more appealing. ### 4/5 — Simple, just the way I like it *2025-04-08* Most games I get you have to log in or wait obnoxious times for a small reward, plus it’s loaded with ads. This game doesn’t force ads to continue and people can take it at their own pace. Not only that but it also isn’t crammed with rules and gameplay but is a nice pick up and play game. And in case I haven’t said it enough, it isn’t packed with ads. Overall really nice, simple game. ### 4/5 — Too much down time *2023-09-03* Really fun game overall but really takes too long to start a new world. Maybe it’s slowed to prevent the user from running through all the content too fast. I paid for the extra world and was dismayed to find it’s also another 20+ hour wait. I’d rather have paid for reduced wait time. Will keep playing for as long as I remember the game is on my phone. It’s more likely that I’ll put it down waiting a whole day to play and forget about it. ### 4/5 — Odd casual fun *2023-06-06* That’s really all you need to know. It’s original, seemingly random, and yet develops a somewhat coherent story. Give it a try. Meet a frog princess who has a cannon and just might have committed a heinous act with a pirate at the old mansion. If that doesn’t interest you, tomorrow you might get to team up with mushrooms and fight skeletons while mining for ore. ### 4/5 — Interesting *2023-03-11* I enjoy the concept but I feel as though there needs to be more prompts and choices to fully get the most out of this idea. I will be continuing to play and hoping that it gets better and I see more games from this developer in the future. ### 4/5 — Great game! Love the accessibility with voiceover! *2023-02-24* I love the different quirky stories every day! The only thing I wish was added, was a way to get bonus tries on a game, like get a bonus boost of stamina if you watch an ad or if your loyalty to some one, is high enough. You could make it so it cost you later, like some thing in the game it happens because you used some of your loyalty on bonuses. Just a suggestion to make this game better. Also, I wish you could make a schedule so I had a specific time a New World opens. It’s kind of annoying, when I have time at a different part of the day sometimes and I can’t play it because the world is not available yet. otherwise, Keep up the good work! Amazing game. Thanks so much. ### 4/5 — Pros and cons *2023-02-19* The game is fun and enjoy able I feel like the feature that you can only play once per day in my opinion is worse than 1 play per hour since the game is addicting the pros are that I like the fact that it’s creative and is descriptive in most cases but the what I guess is randomly generated loyalties don’t really fit with some sentences but other than that it’s a good game ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Weird fun *2026-01-18, version 2.1* Bizarre and surprisingly engaging. Good for waking up in the morning. I love it. ### 5/5 — A very good app, especially for the visually impaired *2026-01-17* I am a VoiceOver user and this game is very accessible using Voice’over. I play this game a lot and I really enjoy the randomness of objects coming to life. The additions of Noctern and Double Mode are extremely enjoyable as they add a whole lot more new content. I know that a lot of effort has gone into making this game, but I have a few suggestions. It may be a good idea to have a home base for the player, as when Noctern is downloaded, there is a piece of text that mentions your home. It would be a good idea to have a school setting with naughty children as well as maybe some kind of assistant for the merchant. This is a very good game over all and thank you for making it accessible. ### 5/5 — Good with one bump *2025-07-17* I love this game! This is a game I play everyday day but it’s hard to go forward and hard to understand. I don’t pay attention to the story because it repetitive and the time isn’t on my time. Maybe find a way to sync to the devices time? Other than that I do like it! ### 5/5 — Cute and simple *2025-04-13, version 2.1* Manages to distract for a few moments at a time and that’s I’ll I look for in a phone game ### 5/5 — Unique / Original Style of Game! *2025-04-07, version 2.1* I haven’t played many text rpg adventurers game either in RL or on an electronic device. But even with the little knowledge I have of this genre and can. Firmly reply that it was defiantly a new and reffreshibbg take on playing through a story. I find myself drawn to this style of game cause why read a book when I cans play one in tandem with reading it together. I only made it through my first adventure but like it explains I. The menu I should have no fear of of getting having up in story some place cuz even afk it seems my charcuter will get ever stronger making things just a little less challenging each play through. I’m eager to see where else this world I’ve found myself in takes me, but I can be sure it will be an experience I’ll enjoy and forever remember. ### 5/5 — Daily adventures *2025-03-25* I didn’t think I’d like it at first but I’ve kinda gotten invested in seeing more stories. Seriously considering purchasing the DLC for the extra content but also don’t want to go through all the scenarios too quickly. Keep up the great work, dev. ### 5/5 — Fun *2025-03-17* Enjoyable text based rpg ### 5/5 — I love it! *2024-12-15, version 2.1* I love this game. Easily my favorite mobile game. All the different realities and stories are super fun and unique! ### 5/5 — Pocket Reality *2024-08-05, version 2.1* Your games are amazing! Can you make similar games to this and similar games to nano Empire? ### 5/5 — Why do I love this? *2024-06-16, version 2.1* Wacky and I’m not sure why I like it so much but I do --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
