### 4/5 — Great game!

*2026-07-12, version 3.0*

I have played lots of gluten free games and this one was one of the best. I do have a request for another game: Ultimate insect simulator. In other games there are dragonflies and butterflies. In the bird game when you are a hummingbird you have to eat flowers. Also there is already a spider game, and a spider could be a boss.

### 5/5 — Short story!

*2026-06-28, version 3.0*

(NOT INTENDED FOR DRAMA)As the sun rose,a young male named River walked far from his territory,the light shining against his pelt.He looked back-did anyone notice how he felt about leaving his family?His only relative by his side was his brother Ripple.Because males are kicked out from prides as they age up,they felt like outsiders for a moment.However,as they stood together,they knew that they were still together in this,in life,always together.Even if they part one day.

### 5/5 — Story: a world of possibilities and horror

*2026-06-21, version 3.0*

There were two lions and one of them was pregnant her name was Luna and her husbands name was Erin they were fighting buffalo and one of them jumped on Luna she was in pain Erin picked her up and brought her back to the den Luna pushed and pushed then the cub was born but Luna was still in pain and she pushed again she had twins they named the first cub Safire and the other one river and Luna took good care of them the end

### 5/5 — Why does the male cub have a mane

*2026-04-27*

So obviously, I have to say that because well, it doesn’t even make sense like females and males have no mane until the male one has a main, but it just doesn’t even make sense. Can you fix that please?

### 5/5 — Lion story:

*2026-01-25, version 3.0*

Ruha and his mate Haikoo were hunting at night. But Haikoo was pregnant, so they had to get back to strong pride IMMEDIATELY. But then big giant lions and hyenas surrounded Ruha and Haikoo. Haikoo was so frightened, Ruha could hear her heart beating fast. Ruha lunged at the biggest lion. Haikoo watched as her mate was scratching, roaring, and biting. All the lions and hyenas were so scared, they ran away. So Ruha quickly tried to get Haikoo back to the pride. But as they traveled, Haikoo tumbled to the ground. She felt pain. The cub was coming. Then, Ruha quickly got a healing lion from the pride. “Okay, Haikoo. One, two, three, and push!” The lion said. Haikoo pushed and pushed. Then the cub came. “We should name her Savannah,” Ruha and Haikoo remarked. 
The end
Part 2 may be coming!✨

### 5/5 — Awesome game, but I have one glitch

*2026-01-03*

First of all, this isn’t so much of a review as a note for the developer. I have this glitch, where if I’m in my den, I can see all the controls, but instead of seeing what’s around me, I only see the loading screen. That is my only issue. If there is a way to fix this please let me know. The game itself is amazing 🤩 and I got it because I have played your Ultimate Jungle Simulator and it’s awesome too. I have a suggestion but the game is still great without it. I think you should be able to have more than one mate, because lions usually do. I don’t really like your second UltimateLion sim because I find it really hard to hunt. Maybe you should be able to have a cub whenever you want after level fifteen, instead of only when it shows the breed button. Oh and I think your cub should be able to leave the den when you play as them. But overall great game and I love your games. Also I would download more, but I’m ten and I ask my dad for games a lot, and he gets kinda mad.

### 5/5 — My lion story (inspired by mochi!

*2025-08-29, version 3.0*

Hunter and biter were married, and hunter was nervous, Because she never had a baby and her baby was too big! So Biter tried to calm her down, so they went to dinner ! It helped her but not the baby! She ate happily, then, it came. Pain. Biter said “are you ok, love?” She said “I’m fine” but she yowled and biter took her back so she could birth her baby so her sisters,yem and lick, tried to calm her down and Biter said “ one, two, three, push!” Hunter yowled and the kit came out. She fainted and the hyenas took her to the hospital and she felt a lick on her cheek and said, “your name will be Darkstripe.” And she fell asleep.
        Part two soon!
                                      The end

### 5/5 — It is the best lion game ever

*2025-07-09, version 3.0*

So this is the best lion game ever because it feels like you’re actually a lion, but there’s some glitches sometimes because when I was eating those animal corpses one of them glitched and they were up so I had to jump just to eat it and this was weird at first, but I got used to it and the bosses are good, but when the hyena attacked us, it jump scares me, but I never deal with a boss battle before in this game And this is the greatest game ever and this is the  and can you fix some glitches please and you should make an ultimate line simulator three but I don’t like when you make other games like this but every time I try to want to get one, but it’s for $.99 but I wish you could make it for free, please

### 4/5 — Love this game

*2025-05-20, version 3.0*
