The game's stability is frequently criticized, with users reporting numerous glitches, freezes, and lag issues that significantly hinder gameplay. Many players experience problems such as the game not loading, losing progress, and encountering inappropriate content due to hackers. While some enjoy the game despite these issues, the overwhelming consensus is that the stability needs urgent improvements to enhance the overall experience.
“I'm on a Motorola Stylus 2024 phone and this game won't load at all; it just freezes at 50 percent, and no matter what I do (changing Wi-Fi, uninstalling and reinstalling), it doesn't work!”
“Yes, I do love this game, but glitching keeps me from playing. Sometimes I'm building something, and I had spent hours building, then all of a sudden the game freezes and deletes all my hard work.”
“Now the game is quite buggy and laggy.”

The game's story aspect is generally viewed as lacking depth, with many players expressing a desire for more engaging storyline quests. While there are various activities and quests available, the absence of a cohesive narrative and reliance on VIP access for significant content detracts from the overall experience. Players appreciate the creative elements and mini-games but feel that the storyline could be significantly improved to enhance engagement.
“This is a good game but I do suggest adding more mini games; the only reason I still have it is because of the storyline, the mermaids attacked her dad?”
“Very colorful and kid-friendly; I love the advice to keep gamers safe and the wonderful quests.”
“Overall, decent game; I do miss storyline quests though.”
“Overall, decent game, I do miss storyline quests though.”
“Hella fun, there's fun minigames in which you get money etc., but other than that there's no storyline or anything you have to follow!”
“Great game but the quest sucks a little because when you are doing the quest and complete half of it, the important quest is only for VIP.”

User reviews on the graphics are mixed, with many expressing dissatisfaction over recent updates that have led to a decline in visual quality and increased lag. Some players long for the return of the old graphics, which they found more appealing, while others praise the current graphics as fantastic and smooth, particularly in comparison to similar games. Overall, while there are positive remarks about the graphics, the consensus indicates a desire for improvements and a return to previous visual standards.
“The game has amazing mini games, graphics, and a good amount of ways you can customize and create your own worlds.”
“I rate 5/5 for the graphics, the choice of activity, the gameplay, and having a great and fun way to make friends.”
“So fun to play and the graphics are so amazing.”
“The old layout was better; the layout now is very buggy and laggy. Please, I beg you, bring back the old layout and graphics.”
“The last time these graphics were present was around January 2022; then the graphics became ugly from phase 2 to now.”
“If you would bring back the old BSP with its old graphics (because right now it looks like MSP, which I don't like, and it makes the game super laggy), then I would reinstall the game.”

The monetization aspect of the game has drawn mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over its shift towards a cash grab model, particularly with the introduction of VIP features that restrict gameplay. While users appreciate the absence of intrusive ads, they feel that the difficulty in earning in-game currency without making purchases detracts from the overall experience. Overall, players are disappointed that the game's focus seems to have shifted from fun and engagement to profit generation.
“I hope there are new ways to earn diamonds because acquiring them is quite challenging without making in-app purchases. It's tough to get diamonds, but it's not a big deal; I'm just mentioning it. The game is still great, and I love the new update that introduced seasons.”
“The monetization model is fair, allowing players to enjoy the game without feeling pressured to spend money. I appreciate that there are options for those who want to enhance their experience without it being mandatory.”
“I like that the game offers a balance between free and paid content. It feels rewarding to progress without having to spend a lot, and the occasional in-app purchase feels justified for the value it adds.”
“It's become a cash grab at this point and I'm very disappointed.”
“This is not the Blockstarplanet I loved playing; this is now just a cash grab.”
“All it is now is a cash grab. All they care about is money. It's sad seeing a game I have been playing since I was a kid being ruined because people care more about money than the game being fun.”

Players express a mix of nostalgia and frustration regarding the gameplay of Blockstarplanet. While the graphics and social aspects are praised, many feel that recent changes, including glitches and a reliance on VIP perks, have detracted from the overall experience, making it less enjoyable compared to earlier versions. Suggestions for improvement include reducing the number of quests and expanding the game world, as well as reintroducing more accessible tools for non-VIP users.
“It's so nostalgic and brings back many memories of literal years of gameplay.”
“I rate 5/5 for the graphics, the choice of activity, the gameplay, and having a great and fun way to make friends.”
“And gameplay so smooth.”
“I took a few months break and came back to it, and I guess phase 2 is a thing now. It's extremely glitchy, the mechanics are all gross now, and you have to be a VIP to use advanced mode.”
“Honestly, the gameplay part could use fewer quests and maybe a bigger world. It would also be great to add a few more gadgets and tools for users to use, as I find it harder to use things when I'm not a VIP. If you could give us a few more gadgets to use, that would be appreciated.”
“Guys, revert back to your old gameplay, and maybe you might get back the old hype.”

“This is so sad... I lost my account that I worked so hard on. I almost got a diamond for top 1 in battles, but I lost my account. I tried the email, but it didn't work. I cried so hard last night; I already miss my friends so much. Though I'm going back to the start and remaking everything.”
