I don’t think the buttons are super important, but the money bag in the lower right and the rune button in the upper left are currently untouchable. ### 2/5 — Can not pay for more runes *2025-07-28* Welllllll- it's been years since I played this game and went back into my arcade history to find it. Love it until you can't find enough resources to actually progress. Once I try to purchase anything the entire game crashes. Tried on multiple devices and triple checked payment info- no dice. Really really disappointing ### 3/5 — Original was better *2025-01-30, version 2.1.11* The original Puzzle Craft game was better in my opinion. I wish it was still available ### 4/5 — Проблема в игре *2024-06-03* Очень Крутая игра но есть одно но . Я дошла до 35 уровня , есть задание применить 6 котов . Но их нигде нет . Как достать кота ? Куда написать в поддержку? Очень обидно ### 3/5 — Love this game, but it feels incomplete… *2023-07-24, version 2.1.11* This is one of my favourite games. Much better than the original Puzzle Craft, with multiple towns, lots of variety on the farms, improvements to the mines, a ship to harvest ocean resources, a huge castle to build, and you can rearrange and repaint your buildings (which you couldn’t in the old game). I just wish the developers had put more towns on the map. There was so much potential - a desert town with sandy soil to farm, harsh rocky ground in the mountains, and more farm species like potatoes, ducks, oranges, camels… not to mention tools for getting rid of weeds and locusts. Sadly, the extra workers you get from building the castle at the end of the game (which is a real grind, by the way) would appear to close the door on any possibility of new villages. Maybe there needs to be a Puzzle Craft 3... ### 4/5 — Amazing!!! *2023-07-06, version 2.1.11* Lost this game when I was a child thought it was off the App Store and just found it recently, I downloaded it again and still addicted to this day what an amazing game!!! 🫶🏻 ### 2/5 — Ку *2023-06-20* Первая легенда, вторая всратая получилась ### 3/5 — A fun casual game— are the devs still showing it love? *2023-05-14, version 2.1.11* I loved this game when it was first released, and am glad to see it back (even with all my progress lost), but are the devs still working on it? There’s room on the map for more locations. Hopefully we’ll get to explore them someday. I don’t mind paying for the occasional IAP in a game I enjoy. Unless this game grows past the place it’s been stuck for years, I can’t justify spending money on it right now. ### 4/5 — No update in a while… *2023-04-11, version 2.1.11* This is a very good game but have you abandoned this game? There has been no update in 2 years… ### 3/5 — Wrong Direction from Puzzlecraft 1 *2023-03-30* This is essentially the original Puzzlecraft if they increased the reliance on in-game purchases and decreased the amount of days that you have to farm/mine. Were you annoyed with how many tools you have to make? It got worse. Were you annoyed with how much time you have to wait for your gold to increase? It got even longer. I was disappointed because I had all these same complaints about the first Puzzlecraft, and it seems like everything I disliked about it originally got worse. ### 5/5 — Still love this game *2023-03-25, version 2.1.11* Such a great game. Miss playing with my friends. Hope there is an update someday… ### 5/5 — Puzzle craft 2 *2023-03-13, version 2.1.11* I love this game it is the best game ever ### 5/5 — Enjoyable & Cute Game! *2023-02-02, version 2.1.11* Very unique and fun! Easy to pick up and put down, love the cute graphics! ### 4/5 — Okay *2023-01-12* I really really loved the first one and played it daily. This game you’re only allowed two workers for each element. Not only that the harvest days are fewer and with the mine, you have to use coins instead of food. The first PC you felt like you were making progress. This one not so much. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — In app promotions and offers unavailable. *2026-01-13, version 2.1.11* Upon trying to access any in app purchases or advertisements for in game currency the game crashes this is unfortunate as the progression of this game is heavily dependent on runes and without access to them it makes it very grindy and unplayable. ### 1/5 — Crashing *2025-11-24, version 2.1.11* The game continues to crash with many buttons like the bottom right one will cause the game to crash. Just going to continue with the first version with other company since that one doesn’t crash. ### 1/5 — Huge Disappointment *2025-11-06, version 2.1.11* I was excited to play this, as I really enjoyed PC1. Man, they wrecked this. Progress is incredibly slow and feels like they’re pushing you to pay to win. It’s also buggy: I’d click on menu items and the game would crash. I finally moved on with my life and deleted it. Too bad. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2024-04-08, version 2.1.11* Crashes all the time. Fortunately I still have the old Puzzle Craft 2 installed and it’s far more stable. Dunno what happened but the new version definitely lost stability. Also, “We’re sorry we couldn’t migrate your old save so here’s 10 runes”. Lol? Dozens if not hundreds of hours are only worth 10 runes that can be harvested in a day? Thanks I guess? ### 1/5 — App crashes when going to purchase page *2023-03-17, version 2.1.11* Progress was also reset for everyone and the “compensation” was a slap in the face ### 1/5 — Все сбросилось *2023-01-11* Дошла до 15 уровня открыла 2 деревни и всю нафиг сбросилось в начало!!Ребят ну это не нормально!!! ### 1/5 — Paywalled *2022-11-02, version 2.1.11* Progression is massively paywalled. Big disappointment. ### 1/5 — Developers have abandoned it…. *2022-08-22, version 2.1.11* Used to be amazing. Giant paywall at end of 3rd village now, no way to grind through to unlock what’s needed to progress realistically. $10 to progress, but no longer actually connected to a buyer….servers are shut down. Wish I could keep playing….it’s got really enjoyable game play. ### 1/5 — Печаль *2022-06-27* Пропал прогресс после 26 уровня 👎👎👎 ### 1/5 — Lost all progress. *2022-05-11, version 2.1.11* I was level 45 and on the 4th town. I had to get a new iPad and found out the data was non transferable due to some issue between the developer and EA. All in app purchases were lost, but as a consolation we are offered 10 runes and 500 gold coins? I lost hundreds of runes. Complete waste of a good game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — ❤️ *2025-04-28, version 2.1.11* My favourite game ever I love it so much, my dad was an original artist for the first puzzle craft so it brings me so much nostalgia love it xx ### 5/5 — Gooodd *2025-02-24, version 2.1.11* I've been playing since 2017, the game is a legend ### 5/5 — Fun gameplay and progression *2025-01-03* I’ve been really enjoying this game - the basic gameplay loop of collecting resources to build out your towns to make collecting resources easier so you can make even better buildings/tools is very addicting. Some goals like moving to a new town can take a fairly long time (especially when it’s required to have certain animals/plants unlocked first), but the gameplay is fun and progress is slow but steady, so unless you’re impatient I don’t think anything is really behind a paywall. I did pay for the 2x tool capacity though, totally worth it if you like the game. ### 5/5 — КАЙФ *2024-11-10* игра Крутая можно залипнуть на долго,хорошая графика,нормальный перевод. ВЫВОД:игра крутая всем советую ### 5/5 — Рекомендую любителям слияния. *2024-07-16* Приятная игра, интересный геймплей. ### 5/5 — Отлично *2024-06-19* Все хорошо) ### 5/5 — Absolutely incredible game, 5 years since last content update. *2024-05-31, version 2.1.11* This game is one of the best games I have ever played, and I enjoyed all of it. I already beat it on a different device though, and now there is no motivation to keep going. If it was updated after all this time, it would be amazing. Please update. ### 5/5 — Одна из любимых мобильных игр. *2024-01-12* Первая часть легенда, но и вторая хороша. Но поддержка игре необходима. Надеюсь разработчики смогут допилить игру под более актуальные модели и может даже контента насыпят. ### 5/5 — Good game *2023-07-29, version 2.1.11* Although there are in app purchases, I like that I can play without spending money. But what I can buy is still tempting! ### 5/5 — Simple and fun *2023-07-08, version 2.1.11* Simple graphics and mechanics, but lots of fun! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
