### 3/5 — Please try to fix this problem

*2026-06-26, version 1.1.3*

I have the same issue on iPhone, where the game is on the left side of my screen and a majority of the game itself is cut off, I can swipe between what levels I can see and click on the levels only. Once in a level, I can only move the crane around, can’t use it. I can leave the level and that’s it. I would love to play this game again because I used to when I was younger.

### 4/5 — Great game but won’t fit my phone screen

*2026-03-04, version 1.1.3*

I’ve tried everything to fix it and it’s not working so it’s unplayable for me now.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work - doesn’t fit screen

*2026-02-03, version 1.1.3*

### 1/5 — Game opening in half only. Don’t buy it. Waste of money

*2026-01-30, version 1.1.3*

The game is opening only in half screen. How to fix it?!!!

### 1/5 — Just like the developers name, this game is mediocre.

*2026-01-28, version 1.1.3*

They fully bricked it. Just like they bricked Sprinkle. Just like they bricked Granny's Apples. All because they would rather brick it and not make a profit, than leave it up and not make a profit. Screw these petty, entitled developers.

### 1/5 — Uhh

*2026-01-24, version 1.1.3*

What happen to the game it don’t even fit on my phone screen it’s so small I can’t even play it right

### 1/5 — 오류개선 요망

*2026-01-10*

I have been a long-term user of this game; however, at some point, a serious issue began in which the game screen became significantly shifted to the left and has continued to persist. Despite repeatedly accessing the game to check whether this issue has been resolved, no improvements have been made to date.

I am extremely dissatisfied with the prolonged inaction and lack of accountability regarding this matter. This ongoing issue has significantly interfered with normal gameplay, and I believe the service provider bears full responsibility for failing to resolve it in a timely manner. Accordingly, I request not only immediate and definitive corrective action, but also appropriate compensation for the inconvenience caused. Furthermore, I demand a clear explanation of the cause of this issue and concrete measures to prevent similar problems from occurring in the future

*2025-12-20, version 1.1.3*

### 1/5 — Half screen

*2025-11-26, version 1.1.3*

This game has a major issue: only half of the screen is visible. It is unclear how it has returned to the top-paid games ranking while such a critical bug remains unresolved.

### 1/5 — Triste souvenir

*2025-11-20*

Ce jeu était autre fois génial. Un de mes jeux préférés quand j’étais petite. Désormais, il est devenu in fonctionnel, n’achetez pas c’est de l’arnaque. 2€ pour se remémorer de vieux souvenirs, qui sont finalement envolés et réduis à néant.

### 5/5 — Nice!

Fun game

### 5/5 — Great game! (Start it when your device is in landscape mode)

*2025-12-24, version 1.1.3*

I really enjoyed the other Mediocre AB games, so I bought this early in January 2025. I think it’s the most fun I’ve ever gotten out of a few dollars! 

It’s nonviolent, the puzzles are good, and minimizing your water usage requires planning, skill, some luck, thinking out of the box, and replaying levels many times — which, fortunately, is fun! 

There are apparently hacked versions circulating, so the Game Center leaderboards have cheaters at the top end (as often happens). My estimates of the absolute maximum scores of each level — based on measuring with a ruler the amount of water you start with at each stage, assuming that NO WATER gets used, and adding the possible bonus points — are as follows (rounded to the nearest 1000):

Tropical: 109,000
Forest: 129,000
Cave: 124,000
Canyon: 118,000
Jungle: 142,000
Total: 622,000

Based on this, the top 14 high scores (as of 23 December 2025) for the whole game were obtained by cheating. (Sometimes this is only clear by looking at a user’s scores on individual islands.)

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you start the game while your phone or iPad are held in portrait mode, the game will not display correctly and will be unplayable. TURN YOUR PHONE OR IPAD SIDEWAYS before opening the game. Unfortunately, Mediocre AB seems to no longer exist, so this isn’t going to get fixed.

### 5/5 — 画面サイズがおかしい

*2025-12-21*

他にも画面サイズおかしいって言ってる人がいて一か八か取ってみたらほんとにおかしかった
300円無駄にすることになる
まじやめた方がいい

### 5/5 — 役立たずなMediocre

*2025-11-11*

貴様逃げるなぁぁぁアプデの責任から逃げるなぁぁぁスプリ民はいつだってトンチキな画面サイズで遊び続けてるんだぁぁぁこの勝負スプリ民のレビューを気にせずに300円払った俺たちの勝ちだぁぁぁ

### 5/5 — Need update

*2025-11-10, version 1.1.3*

I bought it since long ago now it’s need update. I love this game

### 5/5 — @VishalManjeri

*2025-11-08, version 1.1.3*

### 5/5 — Please bring back sprinkle and sprinkle jr. and Granny Smith!

*2025-10-28, version 1.1.3*

Dear yourself please bring back the following apps:
Sprinkle
Sprinkle Jr.
Granny Smith

### 5/5 — Critical Screen Issue on iPhone – Controls Not Visible

*2025-09-28, version 1.1.3*

I absolutely love Islands, but I can’t play it on my iPhone because the screen is shifted to the right, hiding the control area completely. I can’t access essential buttons like watering my plants, which makes the game unplayable. I’ve restarted my phone, but the issue remains. Please fix this urgently – I really want to enjoy the game on my iPhone as I do on my iPad!

### 5/5 — This Game Might Get Deleted.

*2025-08-22, version 1.1.3*

I used to love the company who made these kinds of games like Smash Hit and Granny Smith. But when I came back to it, Granny Smith got deleted because it never got updated in a while. If you check when sprinkle islands got its last update, you can see it updated 8 years ago. This game might get deleted… Mediocre AB Has to save his games more often! They are getting removed! No Updates!
