The biggest disappoint on the App Store

This is one of the only games when I looked at it and there was so much potential. I was actually excited and preordered it. But ultimately it ran poorly and I thought maybe with a few improvements to the game it would be great, but here we are and the app developer did nothing and abandoned it. Ultimately another sad story on the App Store of a failed hit and run smartphone game.

No direction

I played this game a couple months ago, and I enjoyed the beauty of the game along with the storyline. The gameplay is a whole other topic, because there is no direction with what kind of game this is... it’s adventure, survival, and puzzle at the same time which is interesting, but it makes the game so complicated. I deleted it because I couldn’t figure out what the purpose of the game was; or what I was supposed to do. I see a lot of potential for this game after a few changes with the game mechanics and easier gameplay, I may try this game again, and I think more people would enjoy it as well.

Terrible! Waste of money

Clearly one of those developers who thought that as long as you have amazing graphics, the game in general will be good no matter what. Well, I hope he learned his lesson. The game is too complicated, has unnatural character movements, a terrible AI, laggy controls, and worst of all: it doesn’t even save your progress. Don’t let those console quality graphics fool you. The game is a mess. Stay away from it as far as possible, and go spend your money on better games.

Perfect.

The update fixed this game... thank you ———- EDIT: I’m starting to figure out the mechanics of the game, and have gotten past the first couple “levels”. In each level you explore around trying to find these diamond looking things with your annoyingly hungry son, while trying to survive/escape the robot alien things along with an assortment of animals. I hope this helps clarify how to play this game. ————————— This game drew me in because of the beautiful art, but when I started playing, I had no clue about what I was doing. Also, the controls are very confusing and hard to use. I WANT to like this game, and I think it has tons of potential for iOS, but the developers just need to fix the controls and add a little tutorial for a clear understanding. It’s a great looking game, it just doesn’t play well :/

Beautiful but flawed

I preordered this game and was really excited to try it out. The graphics did not disappoint at all. It is truly a stunning game. My main issue with the game is the fact that your son needing fed will send you back to the beginning of the level. There is already so much going on that adding a time limit makes the game too frustrating to be fun. I like the concept of having to take care of your son and it makes you care about the characters more, however I feel like you should be able to carry food with you and feed your son along the way without having to stop and hunt a deer every ten minutes just to be able to progress. Like many other reviewers I really wanted to like the game and was drawn in by how beautiful it is but stopped playing after a few hours just because I didn’t want to have to feed my son so often.

Mildly disappointing

I’d love to say it’s good but I can’t... tutorial is insanely short and doesn’t tell you much at all, I felt lost and confused at first, and even after I played a little and got the hang of the game it wasn’t fun nor entertaining.. I’d suggest putting some more effort into the game, or at least the tutorial, if you’re going to put it on the App Store and make people pay currency for it.

What a cluster

So there may be something fun in this game, but the fact that any time I get close to figuring something out, my kid starts whimpering and then it shoots me back a level or 2 is the absolute most frustrating thing I have ever experienced in a game. Maybe give us a little info as to what’s going on so this can try to be fun. Bought this for a long flight to Asia and wanted to throw my iPad out the plane. a month of Apple Arcade or this? Ha! It’s a joke
