### 2/5 — Too many bugs

*2022-11-27, version 1.1*

This app glitches to much. I’ll be playing and the app freezes. There’s times where selecting cards the timer counts down to zero and it’s still loading. I have to close the app and reopen it to get it to work. I’ll be able to play 1 or 2 games then it glitches out.

### 4/5 — Needs market

*2022-02-23, version 1.1*

The mobile app version needs to have the market. To be able to buy/rent cards. Please make this happen!!!!!

### 3/5 — Fun game but the app is buggy

*2022-01-02, version 1.1*

I love the splinterlands game it’s really fun. This review is for the app. This iOS app is so buggy it’s constantly freezing. It freezes mid battle so I have to exit the app and reload it and go to the battle log to see if I won. Also sometimes when I click battle it also freezes and I have to reopen the app to get into the battle selection. Please fix these bugs so I can give it 5 stars.

### 2/5 — Game is amazing, app is not

*2021-09-23, version 1.1*

Don’t get me wrong, I love the crap out of this game. But for a week, I wasn’t able to get on to play on my computer because my wifi went out, so I thought “hey, I’ll just use my phone and play on the app then!” 

Unfortunately, every other game is a coin flip of whether the app will give me a network error, or if the team I submit actually goes through. I’ve lost countless games just because of the app crashing and of course, that’s super frustrating. 

However, this is truly an amazing game. The gameplay  and economy are quite interesting and addicting. For anyone reading this, play the game! Just not the app…play on their official website instead.

### 1/5 — not working

*2021-08-24, version 1.1*

on iphone 12 pro max / ios 14.4 
its not working .it stuck on updating stage

### 2/5 — No longer profitable unless

*2021-08-24, version 1.1*

No longer profitable unless you give up your career to play this game.

### 1/5 — I like the concept but the execution lacks

*2021-08-20, version 1.1*

I am into blockchain and love the new(not so new) tech, but want to play this simple game on my tablet (not worth firing up a real computer to play) . Just got kicked from a guild(did not get any real benefits from being in one and they were not very helpful) cause I could not brawl on the tablet, tried and tried but otherwise the guild talked about spending lots $$$ (hundreds @ a time)of real money for the limited dark crystals on other sites(off platforms) and also buying with that “bought” currency off platform the cards(very unfair to serious players that are not pay 2 play) and want a real value with their time playing the game . So good idea but unless you are willing to put down a lot of cash off platform these guys are a joke on mobile(the computer version might be different than this get to mobile version).UPDATE: I had to lower the stars for this app. They now advertise some new currency (so I think they have 3 different currencies now?) that you have to go on a computer to get? Lousy devs do not care for mobile players and I feel like a 3rd class citizen (just like in America!) pay to play and no representation to the $ I had to spend just to get the dark crystals and a name in the first place! Not worth it and would avoid the mistake I made by funding this garbage, maybe on Steam you get something? But don’t use computers to play anything, would rather play my PS5!

### 5/5 — I quit my job to play this game!

*2021-08-13, version 1.0*

I found this in early development and played for the last 2+ years. The interest I earn from the assets I hold in game, and the income I generate from playing have increased in value enough recently to allow me to stop working a full time job at a hotel to just play around with this game in the #Hive blockchain environment.

Come and see ya hat all the noise is about!!!

### 5/5 — Great card game

*2021-07-29, version 1.0*

Nail biting card game that anyone could play and enjoy! Just wish I could trade cards in the app, I’m hoping that will come as an update!

### 5/5 — Simple but fun

*2021-07-28, version 1.0*

Nice simple game and a lot of fun, there are a lot potential to become next pokemon card game or yu-gi-yo game, nice job

### 1/5 — Still a horrible game

*2023-11-25*

3 years later and this game still has horrible mechanics. Don’t invest your time and money into it. You won’t win. You won’t earn anything. Game is 50% luck. Might as well play chutes and ladders. It requires the same amount of planning and skill. Idk how this game is even allowed to be on the App Store. The app is glitchy crashes constantly and you can’t do half the things you should/need to, to play the game.

### 1/5 — Should be removed

*2022-10-20, version 1.1*

This app should honestly be removed from the App Store. People saying you can “earn money” playing this game is flat out lying. You won’t earn anything. If you’re lucky you’ll break even. That plus the horrible gameplay equals no reason for you to download or play this game. Save your time and money. I simply do my best to warn others.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2022-01-01, version 1.1*

This game is trash, actually not a game at all. What a joke!

### 1/5 — Black Screen

*2021-12-17, version 1.1*

Tried power on and off, deleting reinstalling…nothing.

### 1/5 — The game is down

*2021-12-09, version 1.1*

Black screen on my iPad 8th gen

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2021-11-17, version 1.1*

This game is unplayable just on your mobile, the amount of hoops you have to jump through just to get your account funded with either DEC or SPS is annoying and impossible with the app on your phone. If you have no decent knowledge of dexs and crypto. Don’t even waste your time.

Experienced Bugs on mobile, game needs a lot of work.

### 1/5 — Broken on iOS.

*2021-11-10, version 1.1*

The only time you can spend money on I phone is the spell book. I’ve played for 2 days and got nothing but quest rewards, the worst part is I logged in on my browser and tried to verify my account. It hasn’t worked after 9 attempts at different times of day. So yeah, I can’t cash in, out, improve, or play with anything but starter cards till season end.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2021-10-30, version 1.1*

Waste of time.

### 1/5 — App se congela

*2021-10-10, version 1.1*

Por favor una actualización pronta la aplicación se para , no arranca, se bloquea, no actualiza los datos ..

### 1/5 — Desktop > Mobile

*2021-10-02, version 1.1*

Highly recommend everyone playing this game on a computer only and not on mobile. Trust and switch over.. you'll thank me later. The app is just terrible.

### 5/5 — This is  NFT GAME IN THE WORLD

*2023-03-30*

Not sure why this doesn’t have loads of 5 star reviews but I’ve been playing the game for years, it has the highest value and upside of any nft/crypto game, hands down.

### 5/5 — Best blockchain game on the market

*2022-10-05, version 1.1*

Definitely the best blockchain game out there! A must play game!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-05-07, version 1.1*

Highly replayable and loaded with strategy. I dig this game and play it daily.

### 5/5 — Spellbook

*2022-04-08, version 1.1*

I got the spellbook now. I had to add my card to my PayPal account. I think that this game being mobile will give it way more opportunities to blow it’s just a matter of time 👍 But the splinterlands site doesn’t load on mobile

### 5/5 — Great game and fun way earn passive income

*2022-03-18, version 1.1*

This is the only NFT play to earn game with a phone compatible app. Granted there are many more features on a computer - but I personally enjoy playing the matches on my phone. Earning about $10 per day and expect to have 160% ROI after first year. New cards were released so it’s a great time to jump in. 

This is way better than MTG because the original cards are better than the new and you can sell/rent your investments instead of throwing money away. Biggest NFT game 550k daily players. Stop reading and get your spell book now and start earning!!!

### 5/5 — Game changed my life for real!

*2022-02-23, version 1.1*

Game changed my life!  Easy to use app.  I’m happy my website, cardauctionz.com gives the biggest discounts on their cards and serves their community!

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2021-09-28, version 1.1*

One of the first games I discovered in the Hive Neighborhood in the Metaverse. Hive is an amazing place. I also love how they connect to multiple blockchains. And can’t believe that 12$ piece of land I bought is worth what it is. I hope it becomes as valuable as an AW piece of land. I do not play much but I love collecting the cards and playing every now and again but now that I see it’s on here, I might play more. So much going on in the space. After seeing the Cardano Summit I’m not sure how to feel about the future for our children.

### 5/5 — Best Blockchain Card Game

*2021-09-26, version 1.1*

Really enjoyable and well balanced. Fun to play and make some cash on the side. A bit difficult to get started, but lots of adjustments are being made to make the early game easier for new users.

### 5/5 — Blockchain Gaming Done Right

*2021-09-21, version 1.1*

The game is fun and addictive. What has me more excited are the innovations that are on the way regarding lands and the economic model behind it all. Genius!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-08-27, version 1.1*

I absolutely love this game. Making good money too! 8x in 6 weeks. The game is fun, challenging, and much deeper than one would think at first. Well done!
