## What is Wrecked XL?

See how long you can survive on an island full of wildlife - and even wilder people! Compete for resources with a new 2-handed control system that doubles the ways you can interact with the world around you - putting the power to create or destroy in your own hands. Explore the island's 10 unique locations long enough to solve the mystery of why you're there - and what lies on the other side of the ocean...

While the game is mostly free to play, you can upgrade to "1st Class" to save your changes to your character and every other. This also removes ads and increases your chances of surviving death to ensure you live your life to the fullest!

HOW TO PLAY
Players of previous games may need to take the time to adjust to the new control system, which distinguishes between the left or right hands:

* The RED fist buttons allow you to ATTACK from either side.

* The BLUE hand buttons allow you to PICK-UP or DROP with either hand (hold a direction to THROW).

+ Pressing BOTH buttons on either SIDE will attempt to USE what is in that hand - such as eating food or reading books (notice that some actions may cause you to swap hands to use them properly).

+ Pressing BOTH pick-up buttons together will COMBINE the objects you have in each hand or nearby on the ground. Both hands can also be used to pick up larger furniture - such as rafts - so long as they are empty and there is nothing closer to handle.

+ Pressing BOTH attack buttons together will attempt to GRAB your opponent (press again to release or any other combination of buttons to execute moves).

+ DOUBLE-TAP any direction to RUN.

- Touch the HEALTH METER to SLEEP when your energy is low.

- Touch the CLOCK to PAUSE - where you can exit or access other options.

I regret that there's more to this game than could ever be explained here, so please look out for additional hints in the game itself - or join the discussion on social media:

### 4/5 — Cool game, one problem

*2025-08-30*

Love this game. It’s really good, but the controls are off and confusing. The controls in the other games are better in my opinion

### 3/5 — Good but the controls…

*2022-12-10, version 1.1.5*

I liked the game and all but the biggest problem I had is the new way of controlling your character I liked the other times you changed the controls a little but this is a bit of too big change for controls

### 4/5 — 4 stars but...

*2022-09-20*

Honestly wrecked is a good game but theres just one slight problem. When you have a kid, you get introduced by the kid but it freezes and its a whole error

### 3/5 — Vexxon

*2021-06-14*

This game is great tbh, but all I want to say is I think you should make a wild western theme game with different controls and 3D, other than that your one of my favourite game developers

### 5/5 — For the person who said fix the writing

*2021-04-20*

The stars show that you don’t know the letters in that sentence for example if you are a native then you won’t understand most of the sentence an English speaking person is saying and vice versa

### 5/5 — Eating

*2021-03-22*

The person who said how do I eat this is for you you grab something to eat and press the blue and button on the side the end press the red hand button at the same side at the end to that’s how you eat (:

### 4/5 — Very fun!

*2021-01-20*

I love all of MDDickie’s games. This game is really fun, but I hate when the animals or people attack me for nothing. I could just be walking around and they attack me and kill me, and I die. Its very annoying but other than that the game is fun!

### 1/5 — Es muy malo

*2020-11-07*

Sáquenlo este juego debe ser demandado por violencia extrema y muy sangriento y consumo de alcohol y también tiene homiciodios porque matamos a muchas mujeres y también eso osa en la vida real en la violencia contra las mujeres sáquenlo de App Store no se merece existir

### 4/5 — I like the game BUT

*2019-08-29*

I love Mat Dickies games but on WRECKED tigers are so annoying, i was playing normally and there was a tiger that came out of nowhere started spam attacking me, and when I finally get up the tiger does SPAM attack, 

Anyways I love your games but that’s the only complain

### 5/5 — How do you eat.

*2019-07-02*

This game is actually fun but the buttons are not like the other games. You can’t even eat. Bu5 maybe you can and I don’t know how to. But please tell me how to eat.
