### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-05-30, version 4.0*

You should add more stuff to this game not gonna lie, but over all, i love this game

### 5/5 — It's the best game I've ever played

*2022-04-23*

I've played the actual forest I have 50 hours in it. I feel like I should instead have 50 hours in this masterpiece

### 4/5 — Very nostalgic, but one thing keeps bugging me

*2022-04-14*

This game is one I used to play when I was younger. I decided to revisit it but something that’s bothering me now is how the sky is bright white, making the land detail extremely hard to see and it breaks the immersion. The leaves on the trees are also nearly transparent.

### 5/5 — Suggestions

*2022-04-14*

If the developer is back on updating this game then maybe I can give some suggestions. Maybe a garden (for berries and bushes) A waypoint maker (because you might get lost in the forest) some ponds or rivers (so you can hunt and eat fish or new creature in water) A Cave (so you can explore and possibly find a weapon) since you can pick stones and rocks up now maybe you can make a craft able axe and pick axe. Love this game btw

### 5/5 — Make so

*2022-02-19*

I’m going back in to my house to work ne

### 4/5 — Huge Update

*2022-01-27*

This new update to the game is great! I’m so glad the developer updated this game after so long. I really appreciate how this new update doesn’t take away from the original feel of the game while improving it substantially. The new interface is so much better. I love the new animals and the additional environmental changes such as weather. The ability to save and breaks structures you build is so helpful! I love games in this style and it’s unfortunate that there aren’t many like this anymore (with the exception of Granny.) It may not be the greatest game but, that’s completely fine. In my opinion it’s refreshing from all the other ad filled, cheaply made iPhone games now a days. I’m very thankful that the developer didn’t just give up on this game like most others would. Thanks for this awesome new update! Can’t wait for more!

### 5/5 — Did there used to be buildings

*2020-12-13*

When I played this. A long time ago I remember buildings but I couldn’t find any is there any

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2020-09-17*

This game was always fun to play. I am hoping they will update the paid version to work on the more recent IOS update though.

### 5/5 — It’s bad but it’s not

*2020-09-02*

I played this game a lot when I was younger around like 9 or 8 and I always liked it even though it is bad it’s just a well made game

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Needs work

*2024-11-25, version 6.1*

Animals can still attack while paused.

### 1/5 — Saves

*2024-06-16, version 6.1*

I had a really good seed but now it’s gone. Fix it or I won’t rate higher.

### 1/5 — Wasted potential!!

*2021-07-20*

This game is WASTED POTENTIAL! I would have bought the full game if it was for any good reason, but no, it would have been a great game, if you guys actually read the reviews and WORKED ON the game, but no, just continue to make trash “video games” and forget actually fixing the ones with wasted potential! You can honestly tell when a dev has no care for a game and only cares about you giving your wasted money to their grubby hands for something that is unnecessary to buy, other games are
twice as worse than this one that actually have a save feature. Expect no happy customers till you fix this!! Its too hard, cabins provide no protection, animals are too aggressive, i can’t even buy the game due to it not being available in my country or region, i I could go on a list. People would love this game if you made it better, and free!

### 1/5 — Pick stuff up

*2020-10-19, version 2.12*

I couldn’t pick anything up the only thing that I could do is walk around
Very disappointed

### 1/5 — Absolutely garbage

*2020-06-03*

The game is a terrible knockoff if the survival game The Forest. First off the animals in this game are too strong and they will take ridiculous amounts of health away. Secondly, it is impossible to build things in this game either because the building menu is constantly frozen and it makes no sense at all. Also, stamina in this game is absolutely terrible. If you run out of stamina which seems to run out in 3 minutes or less. It is almost impossible to bring the stamina back up. Just don’t even waste 5 minutes on this annoying and terrible game.

### 1/5 — Tros tros nul

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-07-22*

Simple escape from reality I like it. Wish you could build towers or tree houses

### 5/5 — Scary???

*2026-05-26*

This game is so scary for no reason, I was walking in the forest (because you can’t run) and it’s super misty… and I see a deer-headed man walking around in the distance. HUHHHH

### 5/5 — An update for this loyal and humble player, please.

*2026-01-11*

Will there ever be an update? I played it when I was little and couldn't beat it. Now I've come back to it and I've seen that not many people have played it, and those who have haven't accomplished much. I've built a fortress of saplings around my camp, and I like the game, although it's missing some things.

### 5/5 — Items keep disappearing.

*2025-02-12*

It’s an erie and great game, but my items keep disappearing. It has great potential to make it better, like the building mechanics and cooking.

### 5/5 — Great game please keep updating!

*2024-05-27*

Solid survival game, a few flaws like the lack of items, structures and especially the map and inventory. The map Is plain and flat, very easy to get lost from the lack of memorable places. The inventory is completely bugged out randomly removing items like sticks, stones, logs, threads, and trophy's. that has to be the worst part of the whole game. Keep putting in your good work, updating bringing new stuff and I’ll keep enjoying it! I’ll keep sending errors and input to help you out. - items like stones, especially sticks, metal, and not really logs randomly Despawn out of your inventory, very glitchy would focus alot on inventory improvements. -Tree top leaves should exist on most trees. Creatures do need more directional control. - Vampires and bats maybe, witches? - craft-able armor and or pickups with simple bar meter?
- Better sky?
