A user, normal user on

It’s the perfect mobile game, it’s easy if you want easy, and it can be super tough if you want that. On par with Minecraft

Has a glitch. Sometimes the speed gets super fast. Please fix.

Brilliant and fun in the best way!

So much respect to the creator of this game. It is fun to play, exploration of an intriguing world is on par with Zelda games. So much emotion and storytelling has been instilled in the game but with enough breathing space for your imagination to be involved. The combat is engaging and dynamic, and interwoven with the world building in a way that makes you care about what you are doing. The pixel art is colourful and beautiful while depicting a deep world. The environmental storytelling is incredible as well. So much care has gone into this game and you can feel it. Thank you for creating this work of art.

Near perfect.
