✓ HelpI world love an update were you can move already placed blocks (hay bales, wood planks Etc.).Version: 1.2
✓ Amazing game, cannot find the mysterious stranger for the life of meI LOVE this game. The amazing graphics and design really make the game shine, and I think the lore makes everything more mysterious and enticing to play. However, I have explored 4 islands, have full iron tools and 2 teleporters and have found 2 labyrinths yet the mysterious stranger is nowhere to be found. That means I can’t explore labyrinths, and it is making me lose interest in the game very fast. I really want to complete it and find out it’s secrets, but I feel like there is no way to do it. I it is not like I haven’t tried to find the mysterious stranger. I have searched all the islands I have found countless times, and have found nothing. To sum up: amazing masterpiece of a game, but hard to enjoy knowing there is a piece of the puzzle missing..Version: 1.2
✓ I love it all except one thingIt’s doesn’t auto save.Version: 1.4
✓ 3 best game of the worldI so love this game but he crash everytime an example i go in exploration to shearch some metal and i not do a save and when i ave 27 metal ingot the game crash.Version: 1.2
✓ So much fun, fustrating bugs!!This game is alot of fun, I feel as though I've hardly scratched the surface of what this game has to offer. But there are some very very frustrating bugs that really need to addressed. I play on my Mac, and at any point when you leave the window the game has to restart. When someone messages me, I have to restart the game!! Save data lost. Makes me not want to play. Team17 please address this!!!.Version: 1.4
✓ Fantastic game, please readI don’t play many games in general anymore nor do i ever write a review for one but this game is so underrated. for starters, many of the other reviews are about bugs and glitches. i started playing this game on my phone then switched to the mac. i haven't had any bugs/glitches on either devices so i’m assuming that’s all fixed. for my people that have played Minecraft and Terraria, this is a game you should definitely try. although i loved to play those games, i got tired of constantly going out to mine and get materials on my own. it took way to much time and overall not much to do. Which were the main reason why i quit playing them. i think what makes this game better than others is that you can get your monkeys to do things for you. They can build blueprints, craft items, collect items, add items to the blue prints, farm, and even help you mine for materials. which makes it go by so much faster. While they do those things, you can be exploring or doing things you want to do. This game is well thought out and there’s a wide variety of things to do and craft. Definitely one of the best games (especially for the iPhone) that i’ve ever played..Version: 1.4
✓ Please undo update (kind of)When I saw this app in “recently updated”, I was very excited. The first update you did was masterful, making survival both easier and more exciting. But this time was different. I saw that there were taskmasters (cool) and trinkets (cooler) and PETS! (super amazing). I then skimmed the part about “bread crumb trails” and “levels” (kind of) and bombs, and taking stuff to your new islands, thinking it didn’t matter, but it did when I got on and saw that you completely broke my favorite game. I chose not to get a boost, because I like building my camp, inventory and monkey army from the ground up. Then I got to the part where you totally miss the point of an open world game. The whole world isn’t supposed to be leveled, and you should be able to explore islands freely, at your own pace. I also quickly learned that near my camp there was a monster camp that is very hard early in the game. Also, one of my favorite things about the old version is that I can explore caves freely, without having to get a bomb. I know that you worked hard on the update, and I know that you were trying to make the game better, but can you please at least just make features optional in settings. Please?🥺.Version: 1.4
✓ Great game but I would love it if you added escapists 2 to arcadeThe game itself is great but I feel as if escapists 2 would be more fun in arcade.Version: 1.4
✓ I got a new game idea and if you want you can create itThis is the list it’s where you’re a civilian like in the escapist two back in the escapists two I’m not asking an update for the escape it’s too by the way where do you even go go be the same difficulties in the escape is to buy a little different easy is when the police try tries to get you but feels very less damage if you end up in prison prisoners opinion of you is very high if you end up in prison this will be just like the escapist two work medium is when guards are attacking you their attack is the more buff buff to then when in easy mode hard mode is when guards are buffed and if you don’t have some sort of armor they can to shot you and their opinion of you is very low or just low but you can choose to be a good person or bad person in that you’re the best developer ever if you make this civilianist game And depending on what how bad the crimes were it will be more harder to escape the prison meaning it have a lot more security and eventually you won’t get released till just take a long time but the tip depending on what crimes there is that you did so if you want you can create the game but if you create the game you’re the best developer ever.Version: 1.4
✓ Great gameNeeds work. The only reason to save in this game is because it freezes a lot and you lose your progress if you don’t. I think there needs to be a fix for that. It freezes in many different areas of game play. Fighting, opening chest, crafting, teleporting, gathering, walking!! 2 hours in, and bam! Frozen. Need to close the app and restart it only to do the same exact thing for the next 2 hours. Don’t get me wrong, the game is great and I enjoy it. I just wish that I didn’t have to save every 10 minutes scared the game is going to freeze. You can die and wake up in your bed with a marker of where you died, or wake up on the edge of the island with a marker of where you died so you can retrieve all of your items..Version: 1.4
✓ I love this gameThis game is endless and fun but my 2 Mikey’s ran off in the purple storm and I can’t get them can you help with that? this is my Favorite game.Version: 1.4
✓ Great game, but constantly crashing.I really love this game and have played it heaps but it keeps crashing all the time and my files get corrupted if the game crashes while im saving. I have lost my progress twice now, and on both saves I lost I had heaps of iron and monkeys and now there all gone. Please fix this because this is one of my favourite games!.Version: 1.4
✓ Great game butI love this game. It's very fun to play and you can enjoy it for hours. My problem is that one it lags. It doesn't lag during the game but rather has random weird glitches like the monkey running away from the raft and them racing to catch up. Another problem is freezing. During the beginning of the game there I none but when I was progressing there would freeze and I couldn't do anything about it but close out the app and lose my progress. This freezing issue is what made me have a problem with no auto-saving option. Everything else is pretty good so far and I genuinely do love this game but if this freezing persists it could definitely become a dealbreaker..Version: 1.4
✓ Love the game, but it crashed for meThis is an amazing game that definitely deserves 5*. Sadly however I was playing my world when the app crashed, and now when I try to re open the game it just loads forever... It still gets 5* because I think the bugs can be fixed, and the actual gameplay is fun. Would definitely recommend. EDIT: I tried everything, even deleting the app and all its data, but ever since that crash the app just infinitely loads. I’m keeping my 5* review because the game is that good, and I’m holding out hope the devs will fix this bug that won’t let me play... super annoying.Version: 1.2
✓ A fun adventureSo, I started playing a few days ago. I took it slow and steady the first couple of days. Seemed fun enough, then I started playing a little more and a little more until I was constantly playing. The game is like escapists. It has a terraria art style to it which is kind of nice. There is a depth to the game that I feel I just began to reach. It definitely has a terraria vibe to it. For those not familiar with terraria, think of Minecraft with 8 bit pixel art. Game play has been smooth, I have been saving every chance I can get more from fear of death than anything else. I am using an iPhone 11 pro max to play and my Xbox controller which has been nice. You don’t lose any screen real estate..Version: 1.2
✓ Fun, a nice breakI’d recommend this app, it’s a nice break from the others..Version: 1.2
✓ Really really good but crash to oftenThe title said it all... it’s really a good game but it crash really to often and the game dont do auto-saving so you will lose all your progress to your last save and that happen all the time.Version: 1.3
✓ Underrated. I love thisI have a feeling this gets a low rating because of the difficulty curve, but anyone who’s managed Dont Starve should be able to play this. It trims a lot of the tedious fat off the core crafting/survival game genre. When I come back from an expedition and dump my entire inventory on the floor, just to have it picked up and sorted by my monkeys is VERY gratifying. Arming two monkeys with swords and watching them rip apart anything that comes near me is SO entertaining. I had to come and give this a 5 star review. When I saw this was going for $40 on the Switch, I thought it was crazy, but when you start to understand the depth, that price tag makes sense. Most enjoyable thing on the apple arcade for me so far. Major props to the team and designers on this one..Version: 1.4
✓ Please update!I want more updates to improve your game so it might get better reviews. I like this work very much but I also found some problems. The main problem is the short duration of the game, it only took me three days to unlock all the islands. I hope to update some new islands and props. The props in the game are too monotonous and difficult to collect, and some interesting content can also be added to the game. I am a Chinese, in order to better communicate with you, I choose to translate, so I think there may be some difficult words to understand. Thanks for browsing. Please reply if you see it..Version: 1.4
✓ Mixed Keyboard supportI’m playing this using my Logitech keyboard with trackpad on iPad Pro and the keyboard support for this games seems mixed... I can control movement and certain things with the keyboard but a lot of the on screen control commands (i.e. space to pick something up) don’t seem to work. I don’t know if it’s my keyboard or the game however. Otherwise this seems like an excellent game - exactly what I was hoping for with Apple Arcade.Version: 1.2
✓ Kicks me outGood game but kicks me out sometimes.Version: 1.4
✓ Ups and downs to manual savingFirst off AMAZING Game. Really fun but I’m always a scardy cat in games like this so I’m still in the noob phase. But one of the things i have mixed feelings about is the manual saving. A big pro is one time i went on an expedition to another island for iron with my only monkey trained in weapons, and when I got back my house got raided and like half of it was gone except the walls All of the furniture was gone. Luckily I had not saved the game on my expedition so I just left and came back and waited the raid out. Really helpful in this scenario. But the con side is if I die/leave the game with all my progress, I lose what I got in that play session. And if I cant reach a bed when i have to go ill be in big trouble. So Maybe add a game setting option. Like when u make the game. It has the ability to... Turn off raids or... turn on auto save, Change the abundance of resources on the islands. That would be a lifesaver. It’s a win win for the people who want the manual saves and for the people that don't. Think about it. Again, Love this game and I cant wait to see whats next! -WyzWa.Version: 1.2
✓ Very addictiveGreat game i like how colorful it is especially with the day/night shading. I do keep having trouble with teleporting, about 7 times out of 10 when i click the teleporter i want my phone clicks meaning i have successfully clicked where i want but nothing happens, i have to come out and go back in and it works. This isnt much of a problem but it happens far too regularly. This is a 5 star game if this problem is resolved..Version: 1.4
✓ Great - for SingleplayerI have been playing this game for a while now, I got it when it first came out. Minus the bugs here and there that were already fixed with the updates, it’s really fun. Then I tried playing with my friends. The multiplayer connection is crap. I connect with everyone through Game Center and hit play. Then the game says session not found when Game Center said connected. Big issue there considering multiplayer can be a big help to this game. I would rate it five stars, but the multiplayer is the only problem other than that, splendid game! I love the labyrinths, monkey helpers, realistic amount of materials for building a house, and the ability to let monkeys do almost everything for you. All in all, I’d rate the game 4.4 stars..Version: 1.2
✓ Amazing game.This game is great and I really love how you’re able to train your monkeys to do things for you. I also love the fact that you aren’t confined to a single island and can explore new ones. You should add another type of monkey workstation, though. Maybe an armor making bench?.Version: 1.2
✓ MultiplayerThis game is great, it’s really fun but I’d love to be able to play this with a few friends, unfortunately the multiplayer just isn’t working? It says “offline” when I go and try and host a game and I don’t know how to fix this. Please help.Version: 1.4
✓ Nice.This game has beautiful graphics despite it being 2D and Pixelated. I’d play for hours if I could of course I’ve got the kids so that would be impossible without “can I have a snack” or “I’m hungry” or “play with me”. My second oldest also likes this game. She had so much progress as well. She had 2 monkeys and found the mysterious trader. She had a house, a boat, and even a strategy for raids! But it doesn’t have auto save. And when she hit the jackpot… It was time to eat supper. So, I turned the iPad off and swiped out of the applications. But I didn’t know she was playing that. After supper and after they asked me for dessert, she tried to play the game again. But, she was back at her base and did not have all of the new items and map discovered. She was sad. But I kept playing the game. I always make sure to save the game before the kids play my phone. Their is a save game when you go to bed (I always choose sleep and save). And also one on the main menu. Their are a lot of complaints about this “what if I don’t want to leave my ‘adventure’?” Just use save on the menu..Version: 1.4
✓ Great Game! Just a few little dislikes…When I first downloaded this game before the recent update, I loved EVERYTHING about it! I loved how you could name monkeys, train them to fight, craft, build, explore and plunder labyrinths (they are tricky, though) and make food. Then the update came. I enjoy the larger inventory space, new recipes and weapon upgrades. Here are some of my dislikes: 1. You increased some of the common recipe items, like for example, I could make one meat kabob with two pieces of meat before the update. Then it came and now I need FOUR? 2. Because of the increased the needed items for hay bales, rope and other things, I am struggling to survive and make the right materials for things. Thank you for reading this review and thank you so much for making the Survivalists! 😉.Version: 1.3
✓ PLS PLS PLSThis game is amazing and fun but i really hate how you cant track normal chests I HATE that feature because I had a chest with all my best stuff in it and my monkey was carrying it or something and it got lost along with everything in it! :( Pls fix this!!!.Version: 1.2
✓ Awesome game but a few concernsI wanted this game before the Apple version came out and finally I got it. I played, I loved and cherished the game. Recently I saw that a farming update came out and I hope that they do it for this version. A few problems are that the game causes raids and your on another island on the other side of the map. They should happen when your close to your island. Another thing is the speed of the rafts. They go very slow and I hope there is a way to make them go faster in the future. Finally, they should add a small storage space like in Minecraft. I would recommend to make it at least 12 squares of storage so you can have more items and put them in your hot bar. I might be asking a lot but I want this game to grow. This game can be game that gamers can cherish and feel like they’re in a adventure that is breathtaking. Thank you team 17 for making this game..Version: 1.2
✓ An amazing survival gameThe second I saw this game I was interested and it did not disappoint. This is a true survival game that feels like the movie cast away. It gets rid of the creativity in Minecraft and exploration in terraria and is all about surviving on an island. The controls are great, and I recommend using a PS4/Xbox controller to play, and it is lots of fun. You also start with a monkey which can support you and help you do things, weather you are playing solo or with friends. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED.Version: 1.2
✓ 4.5This game is definitely worth downloading, however there are some things I would like to point out. The game crashes a little to often which can make you lose a lot of progress, archers are very annoying and should do a little less damage, the game can over populate hard to kill enemies, monkeys do hardly as much damage as they should even with some of the best weapons, and resources can run out very fast (also when the world replenishes it hardly grow anything back at all). Despite all this the game is always fun to play and there is always replay value. There’s always a challenge and the monkeys are very fun to play around with. Overall, get the game you won’t regret it.Version: 1.4
✓ Love this game but 1 problemThis game is amazing but when I went to the bat labrinth I died lost my things and I can’t get them back. Please could you help me.Version: 1.4
✓ Good but with bugsGreat game. Bad bugs..Version: 1.4
✓ Great gameThis is a very great game and it upsets me that it gets a lower rating. All the negative reviews come from the fact that they forgot to save. This game uses manual saves as it clearly states on the opening screen. So, DON’T FORGET TO SAVE..Version: 1.2
✓ GREAT GAME needs bug fixes ASAPPlease fix the bugs after awhile your save will get corrupted and theres nothing you can do on iOS but it’s a great game.Version: 1.4
✓ Lit lit lit so farNo glitches yet :) twelve hours in this game it’s great, also diggin the bit graphics, freakin sic🤩.Version: 1.2
✓ Good game!I really enjoyed playing it i lurked the whole sleep and save to it would take you to a new day and save it had it’s bugs but all round I loved it.Version: 1.4
✓ Great gameThe survivalist a very good game. I’ve always love survival games they’re a little bit tricky for me but I still like them and just Apple Arcade itself is just awesome it gives us access to many more games I have a few other games on the Apple Arcade and they’re very fun. ok, let’s get back to the survivalist's a very good game and I love how you can train monkeys that part is funny and the monkeys can do stuff for you so you don’t have to do it and I like how it’s all set up and you can craft many things like a bed and campfire stuff like that and how do you can explore find new things and that night I’ve seen bats and I’ve gone into a cave once and there were people that tried to kill me and that’s how I almost died and I’ve defeated a shark it was very tricky but I deleted it and got some meat which was cool and the monkeys can do stuff like craft stuff for you and coot and another stuff like that ok, let’s wrap things up by saying how great of this game is and all the others the survivalist is a very very great game and whoever made this game thank you for making such a good game..Version: 1.2
✓ Awesome🤍This game is the best it’s so fun and you can customize your monkeys 🐒 💕 it’s so cute it’s just so fun and I really recommend this game.Version: 1.2
✓ Amazing, even better with controllerI love it! I’ve been playing almost non stop since 9am when it came out yesterday. Once I figured out the trick to pass a chest to a monkey, I’ve been moving my camp all over! Suggestion to any struggling ... hard reset your device. I have a 2018 iPad Pro and did a hard reset. Note to developer ... one bug, every time I visit mysterious stranger, I lose the prompt above my items in the different menus. Thus I can no longer see what the names are nor how much they cost to make. I have to exit game, close it and reset it and then everything comes back. Otherwise ... LOVE IT!.Version: 1.2
✓ Good funOnly seems to sync the first save-slot over iCloud, which makes things difficult in a multi-player household..Version: 1.5
✓ Awesome game with lots of bugsCan't build a thing in friend's game. sometimes can't pick up things. great game tho. hope the developers can fix this game.Version: 1.2
✓ Fun gameThe devs finally updated the game to match console versions more. Thanks guys, awesome work! :).Version: 1.4
✓ Glitch?Played for a day was great second day i cant open it anymore it just says no longer available first day was great though.Version: 1.2
✓ Must have for Apple ArcadeI’ve been a subscriber of Apple Arcade since day one, waiting for the first “must have” app. This is it! Full to form action survival game with high quality graphics and easy to use multiplayer. If you’ve been waiting to jump on Apple Arcade, this title may sway your mind. Plus it has monkeys.. monkeys you can put cute hats on and give them any fur color. You can customize your character with several different unique hairstyles, colors and accessories (including beards). The crafting system is in depth, with a blueprints system similar to that of the forest..Version: 1.2
✓ CrashingIts really one of the best games at the moment but crashing and losing all progress prior to the last save is the only problem..Version: 1.4
✓ Fun. a couple recommendations tho:I like to listen to podcasts while I play a little game, not being able to do this makes me not want to play this game. Seems relatively simple to make it possible to have something running in the background, it would be nice to have that option. I like the game, it’s cool, fun. But it was absolutely heartbreaking when my home got ravaged since it takes so long to craft things, the event didn’t motivate me, it made me actually dislike the game, I felt like I didn’t yet have a grasp on things and then my home got ransacked by orcs, too hard. that’s life I guess. Would be cool to have an option to call ALL the monkey on an island rather than just the ones in your vicinity, like an option to do either or. I find I lost track of monkeys very quickly, and spent a lot of time looking for them which was frustrating. Very cute game tho I like the style and ideas. Cheers..Version: 1.2
✓ Great game but tried playing multiplayerI love this game as a solo player but tried to get a multiplayer session with my husband going for over an hour and it kept crashing..Version: 1.4
✓ I enjoy it a lot!!!I haven’t come across a game where I had to save my progress since a long time ago but I don’t hate it and sure it is a little irritating when i forget to but still, I don't hate it and I still continue to play it! I love the design n concept of the game and I like these types of adventure games. I do think there could loads of new features added to the game because it has so much potential to be bigger and this is good, the game can tap into many aspects to make it even betterrr (all in good time). I remember playing this in December when I tried Apple Arcade for the 1st time and I thought it lacked in things like the blueprints and the map because there could be more added to it. Thank you to the developers and makers of this game. I see a lot of criticism over the progress loss and task chores but there are some users like me who enjoy these. It does have me playing for hours..Version: 1.3
✓ Good game butOK so I don’t know where to put a report for a bug but for some reason sometimes your monkeys just fly across the map and go to random places and then sometimes they get stuck in the water too and I have to reload my last save.Version: 1.3
✓ Good gameThis game is soooooo good when u build, craft mine explore and fight.Version: 1.4
✓ AbsorbingJust started this but all the signs are good. Keeps you thinking whilst always keeping things playable and engaging. Well done all concerned..Version: 1.2
✓ Love the game but crashingPlease please please fix the crashing glitch, almost giving up on it.Version: 1.4
✓ Just read my review I don’t have a title 😂Sooooo I got this game because I thought it would be so much fun but at first I didn’t know anything! I looked up how to get the monkeys out of there cages and how to open chests and they both said I have to use a weapon but the thing is....HOW DO I GET A WEAPON!!! I’m sure you probably have to fight but how do I do that without a weapon and I am terrible at fighting games. I think will be fun once I get the hang of it but they should put the rules on how to get a weapon on there Ok so the next day I figured out that you can craft a weapon and this game is really fun so pls play it. Also I think they should add a chat.Version: 1.3
✓ Blueprint glitchThis is an awesome game, but I just have one problem. You can’t erase the blueprints that you have already placed down unless you build them, and I accidentally placed a blueprint on something that was apparently solid, and I can’t erase the blueprint. Please fix this..Version: 1.2
✓ Great game just a few quirksReally good game honestly great art style but the only issues I found are the monkeys and combat system the monkeys are usually not very helpful it took me a bit to figure out how I could orientate them then once I found out I didn’t use it much. Another thing is that the combat is pretty difficult when you attack you can’t move for a brief period of time so while you are stuck in the attack animation the enemy you are attack has already moved and attacked you from behind I think adding movement as you attack would be good. The last thing is that I would recommend playing with a controller 1 it’s easier to use (for me at least) 2 it leaves more screen just playing on mobile there is quite a lot of screen clutter with buttons and whatnot. Overall a really solid game. Ps. I would definitely integrate auto saving me and a lot of other players would really appreciate it.Version: 1.4
✓ Awesome game!This is exactly the sort of phone friendly, exploration, crafting and survival action I was waiting for! Awesome pixel graphics and retro soundtrack, I’m loving it so far and I’ve only scratched the surface. Good job with this devs! I will be playing a lot lol.Version: 1.2
✓ Great gameLove this game but there are some glitches. Like one time I went to open my chest and then it just disappeared. I had to exit without saving to get it back so I lost some of the stuff I had done and had to do it all over again. Also the monkeys could use some work. I don’t like how you have to retrain your monkeys to fight every time you go into the game. All the other monkeys keep their jobs except the fighters. It’s really annoying. Also for some reason I just have a piece of wood on the ground in my base that I can’t pick up and when one of my monkeys picks it up he doesn’t do anything with it and I can’t take it from him unless I trade something with him. I also wish the labyrinths and vaults gave you more of a variety of stuff, it seems like they only give you flimsy or sturdy tools and rope, planks, mud, and bones unless you get to the end so it’s kinda useless to loot more than once. I do like everything else tho. Wish you could cross play with mobile and console and also I wish you could split screen on console. Hope you update soon. Looooove this game!!!! Also love manual save, once you get used to it. Please don’t take it away, manual save rocks!!!!!!!!!.Version: 1.2
✓ Hi! This game is amazing, but I just want this.So, hello! I have been a fan of team 17! But I just want you to add local multiplayer, because of my age restrictions, I’m not able to play with my friends. So, when you get the chance, please add local multiplayer. But make sure that it doesn’t have age restrictions please! Also, there is a glitch when if I go to the mysterious shop, I can’t see the materials I need to craft stuff, and then I also can’t see what my emotes say, and Last but not least, I can’t see what the cost is for items in the mysterious shop. So yeah, I hope you can fix and add these things! THX and bye!.Version: 1.2
✓ The bugs when you die need to be fixed!!!!!First off I absolutely love this game. Amazing concept and just a all around great game. That said there are two huge issues with this game. The first is like everyone else is saying. THERE NEEDS TO BE AN AUTO-SAVE!!!!!!! I can see where the devs were going with immersion in this survival space . The force manual saves will make things feel more ‘hardcore’. But it comes off as just plain annoying and tedious. Like please devs, please, just listen to your fan base. It’s a quality of life feature that just makes sense. The second and honestly bigger issue with this game is the clearly game breaking bug of when you die there is a 75% chance your character can keep walking oddly, then faints, respawn in the bed at camp, but is still locked in the “fainting” animation. the player is unable to move or save in this state. Which then makes it a game breaking bug. Because the only way to ‘fix’ it is to relaunch the app. Which as you know from my early comment, means you have just now lost all of your progress from your last save. Which results in some annoying unneeded rage quits. Please keep up the hard work on this title, and please fix the bug..Version: 1.2
✓ Need improvementsFun game, imersive. Have potentential, however it does have a few bugs that can be quite frustrating..Version: 1.2
✓ UI too small for phoneReally enjoying this game at the mo. The first open world survival game ever where u could move the storage box without emptying the content. Awesome. My only problem is how small the ui is on a iphone 13 pro, which Im sure I would enjoy the game even more if the dev can make it bigger or give us a slider to adjust the size accordingly..Version: 1.4
✓ It is a very good gameI really like the concept of the game of trying to escape an island or more but I don’t like it doesn’t Manuel save you should add that or like a option to do it but al in al it is a great game!.Version: 1.2
✓ One of the best games I’ve ever playedI really love games like this. The exploring is my favorite thing about this game, and also when I put hats on monkeys they look so cute :D it’s the best game if you like things like exploring and fighting. I must admit I’ve become addicted to this game :).Version: 1.4
✓ Such a good game and conceptY’all hit the nail on the head with this but you gotta add something after a day or two I saw what feels like all the game has to offer and I want more.Version: 1.2
✓ Help plizI downloaded the game and the screen is stuck in loading screen and doesn’t do anything, it just says losing and you see the raft and survivor sail in the ocean, what shall I do?.Version: 1.4
✓ Plz have autosavesI died after beating 3 vaults and then I got killed,spawned in bed but still somehow dead I couldn’t save and I had to restart from being in a raft so I retried and the game crash and this happened again,an again and again.Version: 1.2
✓ Amazing Game!This game is great. It has lots of adventure, survival and discovery. It sometimes reminds me of Minecraft. This game is super fun, but I have found one pretty annoying bug. Sometimes sharks will be on land acting as if they were in the ocean. I’ve seen this glitch twice so far. It would be greatly appreciated if you could fix this bug. Apart from that, Team17, you did a great job!.Version: 1.2
✓ Love thisI LOVE THIS WHENS THE NEXT UPDATE I CANT WAIT !.Version: 1.4
✓ Love this gameI love this game! For me, it is the perfect balance between structure and free play. There’s just enough of a story/overall goal to keep me playing, but I don’t feel rushed to get there and have plenty of flexibility to explore and create along the way. I generally like the manual saves when I remember to use them strategically (not going to lie, there have been a few times where a strategically timed quit and reload has brought me back from the dead). However, as others have mentioned, the iPad version of the game seems to freeze and crash from time to time. I’ve had a few frustrating times where I haven’t saved recently and lost a lot of progress because I had to force quit the app and restart at the last saved point..Version: 1.4
✓ Wholesome5⭐️ when the farming update comes out! Can’t wait for it to drop.Version: 1.2
✓ One of the best gameIm so addicted with this game. Good job for the developer 5/5 stars..Version: 1.3
✓ 5 star game, 0 star costingThe graphics are just amazing, the characters, that chill feeling when you're at the beach doing nothing! I love it! Yes every game has bugs in it, that shouldn't stop you from doing everything else. I am sure the app will launch and it's a fix that'll happen sonner rather than later. 5 star to you people. I am addidected to the game. I'd request something though, I'd rather buy this game for my ps4 than Arcade. The cost just doesn't line up unfortunately! If this game was on the app store for 50$ even, I'd be comfortable buying it. But just paying 7.99 every month means that I'll spend 80$ playing this game for a year..Version: 1.2
✓ 😍Love it.Version: 1.2
✓ I’m speechlessI love this game there is so much to do and collect and explore. I love having my best friends as a bunch of monkeys. It is so funny every time my monkey gets mad because he does not have any more work. I would love it if our monkeys could hang on trees and swing with vines or maybe even the player could do it..Version: 1.4
✓ People can be haters also.For some reason people say this game is “AWFUL TERRIBLE VERY GLITCHY AND BAD.” But those people who probably play on a phone 5 or something. Or even an old worn out device. This game ran greatttttt. The saving, yes is crap and in their newest update they should’ve made it auto save. But the game overall runs great the combat is great I do believe the islands are randomly genned. And during the new update my island was outdated but I was able to take 5 monkeys out of 9 and was able to take a big chest of my stuff. And new island. So this game is great. And watch people’s tone in these kinds of reviews. See u. Person who had the time to read this..Version: 1.4
✓ Love the game but…….I absolutely love this game but there is a bug whenever I die some of my monkey’s just disappear into the ocean past the end of the world. Thanks for making this game😊.Version: 1.4
✓ NiceGood experience atm.Version: 1.2
✓ Expand the alchemy bench?I for one love the game and how you play it, but I’m just gonna get right to the point. Expand the alchemy bench because wouldn’t it be cool to crossbreed plants and animals in that game. Imagine a volcanic spitter crossbred with a swamp bog defending your base or owning a black panther Crossbred with a boar would be cool. I know it’s a little weird and the graphics for it would be hard but PLEASE CONSIDER IT!!! it would make the alchemy part of the game a million times cooler.Version: 1.4
✓ Bug?So far it’s great, really cute and fun to play and build, my only confusion is A) how to get to other parts of the map since ur surrounded by cliffs, and b) once you get ur monkey to take an item and chop stuff down, you can never do anything with it after. Interacting with the monkey screen has everything in the bottom right greyed out so u cannot finish the monkey tutorial quests as you can’t command it to do anything.Version: 1.2
✓ Amazing gameOver all the game is really fun just the fact that you can have monkeys that do everything you do is amazing even tho you have to pay 5 bucks A month it’s ok I love these game and I hope there well be new tools in the future along with more islands to explore bc I did like all the islands and if there r new islands added it well change everything and the raids need to be a little bet easier bc I had got killed and had to go back to my other save but I was prepared that time and didt die so if the raids r Easier that would have over all great game didt think it would be this good 10/10.Version: 1.2
✓ It’s okGood but has a lot of bugs..Version: 1.4
✓ Better!!! 🐒I was looking for a review about the recent update. Seems like I will have to write one. Before it was one star. The game was crushing and you would lose all progress and all items. With recent update the Saving feature seems to work well. The game still crashes and freezes - but very rarely and you can still access the last Saved Checkpoint. There was no corruption of saved files so far. Thank you for bringing my wife’s favourite game back! She is loving it, and for me happy wife = happy life. To devs: Keep up the good work! Keep improving stability and multiplayer functionality. Take a look at gather.town If you can implement video-chat in the game it can be an interesting idea to explore :)) More updates. More content. More stability. And we, your faithful fans, will never abandon you :).Version: 1.4
✓ Good but file corruptionMy file is corrupted for no good reason. I don’t know why I didn’t dupe anything at all just happened..Version: 1.4
✓ Love it but buggyI love the game so much but crashes and glitches have caused me to rage quit quite a few times now. Particularly, Monkey action glitches are quite annoying..Version: 1.4
✓ Ptolemy🥰😍🤪😜😁😃😁😵.Version: 1.3
✓ Detailed review of Survivalists I guess…?Ok, so if you are looking at reviews seeing if you want this game or not, read this. You begin the game on a randomly generated island, with a raft that contains a few supplies. You begin to explore, and after a LOT LOT LOT of crafting, you begin to make your base. After that is done, (mostly) you leave the familiarity and safety of your base and starting point and explore. You collect resources, start a VERY long pursuit of the Mysterious Stranger, you kill one bird and think: “Cool meat!” Then the rest of the flock attacks you. After getting out of that, you find dungeons, (or catacombs idk what they’re called) and solve puzzles and kill orklings, and maybe even find monkeys to help you with fighting, collecting recourses, and…dancing. This is as far as I got, maybe you will get farther. Bye!.Version: 1.4
✓ Love it!An amazing game lots of building, exploring and entertainment! Definitely recommend playing this game!.Version: 1.4
✓ Great game but lacks some stabilityMe enjoying playing this game but it needs to stop crashing every few minutes and losing game progress, i hope an auto save function is added.Version: 1.4
✓ I love the game but…Ok so I love the game I’ve played the game for quite a while until my Apple Arcade subscription ended then I had to delete all of the Apple Arcade games I downloaded on my phone. Then, a couple months after my Apple Arcade subscription ended I got it again then I was so excited to play this game again but then when I downloaded it and then it finished downloading then I launched the game and it went to loading and… It never finished loading. So I tried deleting my save because I thought it was because of my save so I went to my ICloud and deleted my save then I tried again still never finished loading so I tried deleting the game and downloading the game again and it still never finished it’s loading please fix the bug I want to play the game again..Version: 1.3
✓ A great game from the people who mad escaped (sorry can not spell8This game is great the art style is wonderful and it runs (mostly) smooth on an iPad. Some tips are you can eat coconuts don’t go into caves early on ): and play this great game Ps great idea of making monkeys friends love it bye developers..Version: 1.2
✓ Great game but has a few annoying bugsSometimes when i want to open a chest/ pick an item/ give and item to a monkey (these are all actions that are done by pressing "Space") it dosn't work. I have to click space like 5 times until it works. Also sprinting doesn't always work (i have to press shift multiple times until it does) I also realised that when i am experiencing these issues, when i do a left-mouse click and try again it fixes them. It seems like the mouse click updates the game and enables me to do the Space/Shift action..Version: 1.2
✓ Great game!It is a great game rly fun I recommend! 👍.Version: 1.4
✓ Really good but crashesThis game is amazing but sometimes it will crash please fix.Version: 1.2
✓ Good but…It’s such a great game but I find it hard to do anything not that you could really change it but it’s just missing like an easy mode ya know.Version: 1.4
✓ AmazingI love this game but I really want to play with other people because when ever I try it says something about age to play. Can you please change this it would make it a lot more fun for me. But other than that I think it’s amazing. Thanks 👍🏾.Version: 1.4
✓ Add a transfer all button and button layout customisation.The slider is janky and who wants to double tap that much, also I’d like to adjust the button placement on my screen/ choose a floating or stationary joystick..Version: 1.4
✓ Great game, well worth playing!I originally left a mixed review, saying I love the game but it was unstable and prone to losing progress as a result. In the two days since they’ve tweaked some things- no crashes, and they’ve made it so you can save anywhere at any time- which REALLY helps! It’s a fun little survival game with a lot to do, a lot to explore- and monkeys! Without the monkeys it would be an okay survival game, nice to explore but with combat not really suited to mobile- but the monkeys take it to another level. The things that can be done with them, and the increased investment in the game as a result, is wonderful. (You need an option to pet them or give them treats though!) There’s a lot to do and I found that I was driven to fewer, longer play sessions rather than dipping in for five minutes- I’d play for a couple of lengthier sessions a day. It could be played for a good length of time, and it’s chilled out and charming enough to enjoy doing so. I didn’t realise there was an element of procedural generation- but however they’ve designed the generator, it works really well. (If you can’t tell, that’s a good sign!) I’ll definitely be continuing to play this!.Version: 1.2
✓ AWESOME! But needs some tweaks…I LOVE THIS GAME SOOOOO MUCH AFTER THE UPDATE! When the game first published, it was trash (No offense) and nothing with my monkeys works! But now it’s awesome!!! Now here’s some tweaks you should make so the game gets BETTER! First of all, when I’m playing, the music is…. Islandy and nice to listen to. But I want to listen to some MUSIC WITH WORDS IN THEM!!! Because I’m playing music, and as soon and I get on survivalist, THE MUSIC JUSTS StOP. I tried everything in the settings, and nothing works. Please fix this, cuz I’m sure other people want to listen to their own music while playing. Second of all, MULTIPLAYER. It’s been a whole year, and I’m above a decade old! AND I STILL CANT PLAY MULTIPLAYER!!! I desperately want to play with my brother and my cousins, BUT I CANT BECAUSE OF THE FLIPPING AGE RESTRICTIONS! so please fix it. PLEASE.Version: 1.3
✓ Absolutely wondertastaciful (that’s a word right?)When I got this game I thought ‘Oh its probably going to be just like Minecraft and I will delete it soon after trying the game.’ But it was fantastic. The concept is great and it really puts into perspective “if I was stranded on a deserted island...” but also adds the element of fantasy and its just the perfect balance. Now the other reviews said that it’s annoying that you cant get rid of blueprints and I haven’t come across that issue yet but it does certainly seem like that would need some tweaking. Its a great game over all and I love it so here’s a big thank you from a big fan..Version: 1.2
✓ Great gameWhen I first started playing I thought the crafting system was very slow, then I realised you get the monkeys to do it for you and it’s great, fantastic game Dev’s.Version: 1.2
✓ Excellent game despite a bumpy launchThis dev team has a solid track record. This will likely be their most popular title yet. Is it good? Yes, very. A very fun little survivor game with only a few noticeable bugs that don’t hinder the experience and will probably be squashed within a week. I have about 8hrs into the game so far and I can’t put it down. I play with a Razer Kishi controller and it works perfectly. Apple Arcade and a Kishi with titles like this and the ability to roam between devices makes for a pretty sweet gaming experience! I keep telling my friends to watch out for Arcade and iOS 14. On PC and PS4 this title is $25 and you can’t put it in your pocket so... keep the titles coming Apple!.Version: 1.2
✓ MultiplayerThis game is really fun but I don’t get why I have to be older than 13 to play with friends..Version: 1.4
✓ I’m addictedBy all means, I absolutely love this game, it’s addictive & I love the retro feel to it, however the only thing holding me back from 5 stars is that twice now, when re-boarding the raft, I’ve had my monkeys disappear… only to find them outside the border of the map, I’ve tried to sail as close to them as possible, and glitched through it before, but even while calling them while standing over them, I haven’t been able to retrieve my monkeys! I really do hope there is some sort of fix to this, or that there is some sort of way I can retrieve them, as I’d love to carry on playing this game!.Version: 1.4
