### 3/5 — Bom,porém…

*2026-09-08*

Muito pouca energia de vida, um pouco confuso e de difícil acesso as coisas.

**Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for sharing your experience! The Wild West can take some getting used to, but there are plenty of ways to make your journey a little easier. Better armor, food and drink buffs, and a pet can give you a helpful boost in fights. If you’re running low on Energy, you can restore it with Silver, ads, or sweets, and once you get a Horse, you can travel using sugar. We also appreciate your feedback about making the game easier to navigate and understand.

### 4/5 — Incrível

*2026-09-03*

O jogo é inacreditável porque é muito bom , mais a michola poderia ser maior e para aumentar a mochila poderia ser grátis

### 3/5 — Energy greed

*2026-09-02, version 12.1.0*

The game is not bad. The biggest draw back is you can visit 2 or 3 locations and then you are out of energy unless you want to spend money. Other games seem to be able to go without this blatant money grab.

### 3/5 — Cowgirl

*2026-08-22*

O jogo é bem legal,fazer os desafios e tals,só que eu já tive 2 amigos que desistiram do jogo pq arrumar material pra tudo toda hora fica chato,e além de ser muito difícil fazer armas e outros utensílios,fora isso os gráficos do jogo,as dinâmicas são todas muito boas,mas tem coisas que ficam a desejar.

**Developer response:** It’s really nice to hear that you’re enjoying the challenges, graphics, and gameplay, and we appreciate you taking the time to share what hasn’t been working as well for you. We can see how constantly gathering materials for weapons and other gear can start to feel repetitive. Resource management is a big part of the survival experience, but we’ll share your feedback about its balance with the team.

### 2/5 — could be better

*2026-08-15, version 12.0.1*

great game but the weapons wear out fast and its hard to get any resources because the weapons wear out so fast plus everytime u open up a new land its 10x harder than the previous and u cant repair your guns because u use it just to get resources maybe if the weapons lasted longer without having to spend money .

### 4/5 — Been playing this game for awhile but

*2026-08-06, version 12.0.1*

I think this game is amazing and I love playing it in my downtime. I love that you have specific storage things for each group of items. The quests are pretty easy to do. But I do have a problem with finding medicinal herbs to make stuff to help my health. It’s like near impossible to get a decent amount without dying. Another issue is I paid for extra slots, so I bought the backpack, but every time I die, I lose a space which I think is kind of ridiculous considering I paid for those extra slots. I’ve paid for a couple of things that I think shouldn’t be taken when I die. I’d rather have to go back and get my things from my body than lose a slot in the backpack I PAID FOR, everytime I die

### 2/5 — Changes Not For The Best.

*2026-07-28, version 12.0.0*

I’ve played this game from the outset of its development. When it first came out it was challenging and fun. But over time it has changed. And not necessarily for the best. With this newest version there are more outlaws in every area. And they are harder to take out. There are more animals that attack now, (you use to be able to build enough spirit points to prevent animal attacks), and harder to take out. This game is listed as free…But now it has become a pay-to-play game. Sad. It use to be fun.

### 4/5 — Notice Differences.

*2026-07-12, version 11.9.0*

I have played this game on and off since its inception. Noticed differences since the last time I downloaded the game. More outlaws in all areas. Heal bandages and potions do not heal as much as they did. Items break faster, especially weapons. I know they want players to spend money, but some players simply can’t afford to. Still enjoyable.

### 5/5 — Idea

*2026-07-09, version 11.9.0*

For Halloween, you should add an exclusive suit suite at night werewolf and add a perk or whatever at night

### 5/5 — Be cautious with this game they really want your money

*2026-07-05, version 11.9.0*

If you have a lot of money, you can go far in this game, but who really wants to spend money on stuff that is fake very good game to kill the time other than that you will not progress unless you literally give away your life savings

### 4/5 — Trade or Sell store for players

*2026-07-02, version 11.9.0*

For the next update can you create a “Westland store and trade center.”? Where players can trade or sell items.

### 1/5 — Help?..

*2026-08-28, version 12.1.0*

Literally unplayable… won’t get past the loading screen. Halfway through the bar it just stops and says ‘connection error’ even though I very clearly have connection at full bars and 5G+… was really looking forward to this game too sadly after seeing so many  good things about it.. will be uninstalling. And before anything’s said, YES I tried restarting the app as well as my phone but with no luck..

### 1/5 — Pay to win

*2026-08-22, version 12.1.0*

Don’t download unless you’re willing to spend money. It’s fun for the first few days you play but then it turns into everything kills you and you can’t even travel the map unless you spend money on energy.

### 1/5 — The game is not working

*2026-08-07, version 12.0.1*

The game is not working

### 1/5 — Frontier Games

*2026-07-28, version 12.0.0*

This is the worst addition in the history of the game. 

This event is for 5 year old children. The very nature of the game is investing years into growing, developing, and progressing. I can’t comprehend the developers adding such a basic and mind numbing event to the game.  

Secondly, this event is purely pay to win, buy tickets,get 1st. 

Finally, the tickets are completely broken. I absolutely earned eleven before the event began and when the event began the game showed 4. They are an imaginary rss, and impossible to track so Westland Devs can distribute them as they like and you can’t track the info.

### 1/5 — P2w event

*2026-07-28, version 12.0.0*

U have to spend a lot of $ just to get the cool new shadow pet it’s crazy ruined it all for me

### 1/5 — Difícil e Pay to win

*2026-07-26*

Se não comprar as coisas que o jogo oferece fica impossível depois de um certo ponto.

### 1/5 — Atualização dos pet deixou ainda mais bugs

*2026-07-10*

A última atualização dos pets para eles não ficarem na frente e atrapalharem a locomoção piorou! Agora sim que eles trancam! No modo automático eles não saem da frente! E nas entradas de minas você fica trancado sem poder acessar nada! Consertem esse bug!!!

**Developer response:** Olá! Sentimos muito que, após a atualização, os pets estejam bloqueando ainda mais a passagem, especialmente no modo automático e nas entradas das minas. Vamos encaminhar esse bug à equipe. Se acontecer novamente, envie UID, localização e um vídeo pelo Settings → Support para ajudar na investigação.

### 1/5 — Not Enjoyable

*2026-07-05, version 11.9.0*

The adverting trailer was much better than the actual game. 
Deleted this game very early on as it is just too clunky to play with no fluidity to it.

### 1/5 — Why u destroy the game

*2026-07-02, version 11.9.0*

It could be one of the best mobile games but the greediness of the developers ruin it !!! Greedy vultures

### 1/5 — Воры и пофигисты

*2026-07-01*

Оплатила супер вип!!! Его подключили сразу добавив к уже существующему, на остатке было ещё 3 дня! Сегодня зашла а его аннулировали ЭТО ЧТО ЗА ВОРОВСТВО!!!!!! Я вообще молчу что в прошлом месяце оплатила два раза, а супер вип сделали на 30 дней только а не на 60!!! Разработчик пишет пришлите чеки, прислала и опять тишина!!!! Свинское отношение(((((( играть вся охота отпадает  жаль что ноль звезд  нельзя поставить!!!!

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте! Нам очень жаль, что Super VIP был начислен некорректно и ответ поддержки задержался. Пожалуйста, напишите нам повторно через поддержку в настройках игры, указав UID и приложив чеки за обе оплаты — мы проверим подписку и поможем восстановить покупки.

### 5/5 — We need vip more

*2026-08-21, version 12.1.0*
