It did like the normal loading screen at the start, but then it just randomly turned pitch black after that and I can’t even play it ### 3/5 — I enjoy it but a couple errors. *2026-08-03, version 1.2.4* I love the game but there is a problem that prohibits me being around alien structures and when I am near an alien structure, the game crashes constantly. Also says it’s supported on the App Store but when I run the game it says it’s not supported on my device (9th gen apple iPad). Please fix soon. ### 4/5 — Good game tho *2026-07-31, version 1.2.4* Yeah so whenever I got to the island where I’m suppose to get rescued i get kicked from the game every time I get near the big alien build and when I go in the caves please fix it ### 4/5 — Small suggestion *2026-07-29, version 1.2.4* This game is almost perfect. There’s so much to do, and I couldn’t possibly get bored! But it would be great to have a way to mark locations that you haven’t been to so that exploration is easier. Please give this some thought. This would make the game easily one of the best games on the App Store. ### 5/5 — Saving doesn’t work *2026-07-28, version 1.2.4* Every time I save my game it logs me off to the Home Screen where i see all my apps it also does this randomly ### 5/5 — Super fun *2026-07-28, version 1.2.4* Guys, thank you for making this game when I first heard about it was in 2023 when my dad was playing it then I got too addicted so that's why I downloaded Subnautica but don't make fun of my nickname ### 5/5 — Good but *2026-07-27, version 1.2.4* Would be better with custom ### 4/5 — Multiplayer? *2026-07-26, version 1.2.4* It was done in Subnautica 2 so what Subnautica or put Subnautica 2 on mobile ### 5/5 — Best game in the world *2026-07-26, version 1.2.4* I Love this game graphics are amazing and the game is really fun and the creators put there time into making this amazing game ### 4/5 — Invalid crash *2026-07-25, version 1.2.4* Basically when I get close to the quarantine enforcement platform it just crashes without any warning no lag ive tried to close it and reopen it that didnt work I tried lowering graphics that didnt work can yall fix this great game tho but it’s kinda unbeatable ### 5/5 — great game *2026-07-24, version 1.2.4* awesome ### 5/5 — Ts lowk good *2026-07-20, version 1.2.4* So like it’s hard at first but if you grind for a couple billion hours it’s still hard.
