## What is The Tribez?

The Tribez is an adventure like no other – a game about a charming tribe and its peaceful life in a cozy farming village! Travel to a settlement on a lost island and start improving it. Unlike many other farm games, The Tribez offers a truly unique and immersive experience. Besides growing crops, tending to your very own garden, and gathering the harvest when it's ripe, you'll get to engage in tons of exciting activities that other village games simply don't have. Exploring a lost island to find the last surviving dinosaurs in a paradise bay? Traveling to a distant valley in search of cute pets? Unlocking portals to other dimensions? You name it! This is not your usual routine: plant a crop, harvest it, stack up on hay for the horses, repeat. The Tribez is a vibrant adventure full of amazing stories, charming characters, and heartwarming moments. Even the names of the places you’ll visit speak for themselves: Cozy Valley, Fisherman’s Cove, Ancestors’ Atoll, Mystery Shore. They really make you want to jump straight in and start exploring one of the most unusual farm games out there!

### 3/5 — Sir

*2026-08-22, version 19.5.0*

Excellent game. As a first time player I was annoyed by two aspects. I assumed it would be possible to move/rearrange buildings etc once placed, and I could not find a way to delete and restart the game from the beginning.

### 2/5 — 最新版闪退，

*2026-08-19, version 19.5.0*

最新版打不开闪退

### 1/5 — Crash

*2026-08-18, version 19.5.0*

I used to play this game all the time and got to over level 150. Did a recent updated to the app and now it just crashes instead of opening. I ended up having to delete the app and reinstall which has now deleted all of my progress. Gues what. App still crashes. Tried this multiple times and made sure my iPad is updated and also I have enough storage space. Still can get the app to work. It just crashes and automatically disappears or closes down before even opening.

Developers said they want to know more about the issue.  I replied but never got a response back.

### 1/5 — You really like to watch adverts

*2026-08-02, version 19.5.0*

I’ve played this game several years and now the number of adverts has increased.  Most adverts are about 90 seconds in length and the x to stop the advert after making a cuppa rather than watching the advert changes from side to side and the x is the smallest they can put on the screen.  Some of the adverts you have to click on the screen as if you’re going to try the game.  You need to have a lot of patience to play this game.

### 1/5 — Updates

*2026-07-27, version 19.5.0*

Played the game on my phone and it downloaded a new version. It is a week later and I still cannot play the game because that update is not available for download on my apple iPad. I asked game in-site and they said they sent the 19.6 version update but apple just is not releasing it. I am not sure what apples problem is. My phone is android. I would like to think apple wants to stay ahead of the curve. But I guess that is not the fact. Hopefully enough people see this and respond as well and maybe they will allow the updates.

### 2/5 — Great game but Bugs kill it for me

*2026-07-21, version 19.5.0*

I’ve been playing this game on and off since I was in middle school over a decade now. The past week I’ve been dealing with a bug where I have been unable to access or do anything on one of my islands. I have been talking to the support team for over two days on this and right when they claim to fix it, incomes another problem. I understand it takes time but my lord it should not take over a day to get anywhere.

### 1/5 — Tribez does not run well on iOS.

*2026-07-14, version 19.5.0*

Game insight blames devices (storage that’s 90%unused/free, memory/ram with only Tribez running and all background etc shut off, moved to brand new iPad Air and still bugs, etc!) and all delays are supposedly due to AppStore review process, everyone but themselves! It used to be a great game, that we can see the remnants!  Sad…

### 2/5 — Разочарование

*2026-07-12, version 19.5.0*

Разочарована сильно. Очень любила эту игру в школьные времена. Решила понастольгировать, скачала, думала, буду играть долго. В итоге переплевалась с самого начала. Эти нелепые «три в ряд»- ни к селу ни к городу. Вообще отвернуло от игры на 4 же уровне. Мало того, что сделано плохо- замедленно, неинтересно, Некрасиво. Так еще и время приходится на это тратить, вместо того, чтобы играть в изначально хорошую игру! В общем, удаляю, даже не успев понастальгировать.. крайне советую не делать солянку из игры, и убрать отсюда «три в ряд»

### 3/5 — Overheat

*2026-07-04, version 19.5.0*

Since last update causes iPad mini to get hot

### 3/5 — Нагревается iphone 17

*2026-07-04, version 19.5.0*

Сильно нагревается телефон во время игры в туземцы. В других играх такого замечено не было, даже в геншин и бравл старс, клеш рояль и тп. плохо сбалансирована игра
