### 5/5 — This is the best game. Every

*2026-08-25, version 0.51.4*

I really like it but I wish every thing else was free

### 5/5 — Mámalo

*2026-08-25, version 0.51.4*

Es muy entretenido 🤭

### 5/5 — good game

*2026-08-25, version 0.51.4*

it is good

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-08-24, version 0.51.4*

The premium is still very good but for some reason all the time my phone doesn’t load ads because ads are like broken and on YouTube there’s like no ads

### 5/5 — Awesome game!

*2026-08-24, version 0.51.4*

This game is AWESOME! I like how you can just leave a world open for DAYS and see what happens!

### 5/5 — This is great

*2026-08-24, version 0.51.4*

This game is super peaceful

### 3/5 — Excellent game but

*2026-08-23, version 0.51.4*

I’ve played this game for years but the new update really has added a lot to this game, with multiple new layers to mess around with, you can easily get lost in this game for hours, but due to a glitch in the game I deleted it to redownload it upon which I had to repurchase the game, the glitch happened again and I had to delete the game again it remembered my purchase but I lost many hours of items and traits after losing years worth, unfortunate.

### 5/5 — I have an…idea(or two, no pressure though)

*2026-08-23, version 0.51.4*

So I was thinking about this game, maybe to much but I…have an idea
Idea 1: World Layer System
Similar to layers on a drawing, players could add up to 3 above ground levels for foggy mountain areas and space or sky at the top, and 3 below ground levels for cave system viewing and underwater environment viewing, in which only one layer could be viewed at a time-
6-for a space-like environment with little oxygen and very cold temperatures 
5-Second above ground level, which could have the appearance of sunset or sunrise depending on the daytime, where only summits, floating islands and creatures flying super high could be seen
4-Above ground level, where layer 3 is covered by foggy clouds and only the mountains and summits can be seen.
3-Ground level, for soil, hills, normal opaque water look, and cave entrances(the cave entrances could look like holes in the ground)
2-Below ground level, darker for cave creation, cave systems, and the viewing of what is underwater(water could appear with low opacity blue to show the ocean underneath the ground level), but only shows the shallow and medium deep areas
1-darker, for more cave systems, shows the deeper ocean and caves
0-deepest and darkest area, for ocean midnight zones with scary ocean serpents and anglerfish, or the deepest depth caves…
Idea 2: creature CREATION system
You could add a tab in which players could pop up a pixel drawing grid to draw colored pixelated creatures(such as animals, monsters, etc…), and select animations from a tab that pops up with it to pixelate animation frames for them(up to 8 pixel frames), such as walking, jumping, etc, as well as selecting traits for them, then save and select the creature from a creature save area and spawn it(grid could be 64by64 pixels and could be part of the stuff you unlock after buying or something(or 7x7 for free players) just two ideas also I love this game goodbye

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-08-23, version 0.51.4*

This game is so GOATED it is alright without the expansion but it is Amazing

### 5/5 — World box

*2026-08-23, version 0.51.4*

Cool
