  • gameplay
    55 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally praised for its engaging mechanics, exciting progression, and appealing graphics, making it enjoyable and suitable for various devices. However, many players express frustration with bugs, repetitive gameplay, and challenging mechanics, particularly regarding food management and survival elements. While the game offers a fun and strategic experience, improvements in balancing and bug fixes are needed to enhance overall enjoyment.

    • “Fantastic game worth a download, exciting gameplay and great progression system.”
    • “I love the concept and gameplay of the game; it is very challenging keeping the walls and survivors alive.”
    • “This game is perfect for strategic gameplay and resources gathering; I hope to see more updates and fixes for the bugs, it's like RimWorld but on mobile and the grind is worth it in this game.”
    • “The gameplay loop is very repetitive and the control over your colony is very limited.”
    • “I'm going to have to give this a 1-star review because I couldn't even get into the actual gameplay. I was really hyped because of the design of the game, but I can't even get through the naming outpost screen without it freezing. Please fix this; I really want to play this game so bad.”
    • “It's a good game, but I am very confused about how to get food and why my citizens die when I have food. Is this a bug or something? Please make the food mechanic easier because my citizens don't eat the food and two of them died.”
  • graphics
    44 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed feedback, with some players praising the simple yet charming pixel art and optimization for low to mid-range devices, while others report significant graphical bugs and performance issues, particularly during nighttime and with certain animations. Many users express a desire for improved graphics options, including the ability to adjust settings for better performance, and some hope for future enhancements to the visual style. Overall, while the graphics are considered acceptable by some, there is a strong call for upgrades to elevate the game's aesthetic appeal.

    • “Graphics are amazing and the gameplay is full and exciting.”
    • “Perfect for low and mid devices due to the game's proper optimization, and simple but great pixel graphics. The mechanics in the game are easy and simple, and will change bit by bit as you play more into the game.”
    • “I can't believe how this game has grown so much, from just pixel art to now having a unique art style and more mechanics. Keep it coming!”
    • “On normal graphics, the town's lights at night glow very bright, smearing the whole screen. It appears every few seconds when nighttime.”
    • “I rate it 4 stars because after the tree tech update, the game became very laggy due to the rain animation. I love the new features, but I hope you add a graphic option setting or a way to turn off the rain animation, as I can't even play the game properly anymore because it's just too laggy.”
    • “I really like this game, but because it doesn't have many graphics settings to turn on and off, I'm running the game at 7 fps because my phone is not powerful enough.”
  • stability
    38 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, with numerous players reporting frequent glitches, freezes, and bugs that hinder gameplay, such as overlapping buildings, lost progress, and unresponsive mechanics. Many users find these problems severe enough to render the game unplayable at times, despite enjoying its overall concept and design. Overall, the game's stability is a major concern, overshadowing its potential and enjoyment.

    • “My only problem is the sheer amount of glitches and bugs, making my current game unplayable.”
    • “The game is buggy; after loading my progress, buildings overlap each other. My workshop got overlapped by wood storage, and even though you destroy the wood storage, it is still there over the workshop. Now you can't use the workshop to upgrade, and if that happens, you can't unlock new blueprints to progress the game. The worst part is, you can't create a new workshop.”
    • “Great game, though I have a complaint: sometimes at random points in the game, the game glitches, which causes the in-game timer to stop and/or prevents you from building or upgrading anything. Upon closing the game and reopening the save, the save becomes unplayable.”
  • monetization
    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization model of the game is characterized by a lack of intrusive ads, which players appreciate; however, many express frustration over the reliance on microtransactions for progression. Users suggest that offering ad-based options for resources or a one-time purchase for features could enhance both player experience and developer revenue. Overall, while the absence of ads is a positive aspect, the current monetization strategy is seen as exploitative and tedious.

    • “No ads.”
    • “My only suggestion is to make the in-app purchase for the resources a one-time buy that adds a raiding feature, similar to when you're clearing the extra areas.”
    • “It's annoying that I have to pay to continue... maybe at least give me a chance to watch 3 ads, I'll even watch 5... and I'll happily watch them to continue... I don't have an e-wallet to pay 1 dollar or 0.65 JOD in my currency... it's because I spent so much time!”
    • “Exploitive microtransactions.”
    • “Very bad, I know that you need profit from the game but it shouldn't be like this. At least you can put ads; why should I pay just to continue?”
  • story
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players appreciate the game's potential for freedom of choice and variable gameplay, but many express a desire for a more developed story and lore to enhance the experience. While the game is praised for its challenge and excitement, users suggest that adding more content, such as expanded tech trees and roles, would further enrich the narrative aspect. Overall, there is a consensus that improving the story and graphics could significantly elevate the game's appeal.

    • “This game has a lot of potential with its variables and freedom of choices without fixed missions.”
    • “Maybe in the future updates try to add story/lore to make the game more interesting!”
    • “I'd pay for a 2nd version with more design/story/multiplayer elements/slightly better graphics.”
    • “I'd pay for a second version with more design, story, multiplayer elements, and slightly better graphics.”
    • “It was an amazing game, but when the wall breached, I instantly lost instead of being able to rebuild the wall and fight the zombies inside the outpost. A bug occurred when I upgraded the plot and got my third wall; the guard didn't attack the zombies, and then I lost. I feel like I should play it again when all the bugs are fixed because I don't want to waste so much time losing right away without any justice.”
    • “Hello, it is a good game, but there's a bug that builds all the buildings in one plot, and if I try to delete it, it doesn't say there's a building there, so I have to restart my progress. I was on day 100.”
  • grinding
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players generally find the game to be quite grindy, particularly in the early stages and when upgrading buildings, which can lead to a tedious experience. While some appreciate the effort required and find it satisfying, others suggest that reducing the grind or introducing features like clickable ads could enhance enjoyment. Additionally, bugs affecting resource gathering and building management have been noted, impacting overall gameplay.

    • “For example, decreasing the hunger rate or the need for food would make the game less tedious.”
    • “Been grinding for 2 hours. The moment I returned after saving and exiting the game, the building was gone and I saw my house merged with the building that needs crafting stuff. It's a super fun game for someone looking for a game like this, but it needs to be fixed.”
    • “This game is so easy but very grindy. Although it's fine for me, on day 64 my people don't go out to gather resources, and I eventually lost due to hunger. Devs, please fix this bug; the reviews will be 5 stars if it's fixed.”
  • optimization
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game's optimization is praised for its suitability on low and mid-range devices, thanks to its simple pixel graphics and mechanics. However, recent updates, particularly involving machine gun animations, have introduced performance issues, causing lag and frame skipping even on high-end devices like the S23 Ultra when handling larger populations.

    • “Perfect for low and mid devices due to the game's proper optimization, and simple but great pixel graphics. The mechanics in the game are easy and will evolve as you progress.”
    • “Great gameplay, easy to play, great performance!”
    • “The game's optimization allows it to run smoothly on various devices, making it accessible for a wider audience.”
    • “Need more optimizations, please fix. Thanks! <3”
    • “With recent updates, especially with the machine gun animations, even my S23 Ultra in performance mode is lagging and experiencing frame skipping once I reach a population of 380+ as they all run around in the morning.”
    • “With recent updates, especially with the machine gun animations, even my S23 Ultra in performance mode is lagging and experiencing frame skipping once I reach a population of 380+ as they all run around in the morning.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is praised for its quality and ability to enhance the atmosphere, particularly in the menu, where it is noted to be particularly effective. However, players express a desire for the background music to be incorporated into the gameplay itself, as it currently only plays during menu navigation. Overall, while the music contributes positively to the game's ambiance, its limited presence during actual gameplay is a common point of feedback.

    • “It is a really good game; the winter can be a bit harsh, but the art and music are amazing. The music only plays in the menu, which is good as it keeps the mood of the game as the last outpost of humankind.”
    • “The game is fun and relaxing; the background music is great.”
    • “However, if I log in to my account, the game freezes but plays music. Even though I cancel logging in, the game still freezes.”
    • “The only thing I would like to see is a way to have the music from the menu while playing the game.”
  • atmosphere
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's atmosphere is described as uniquely engaging, providing a sense of safety and relaxation despite its simplistic graphics. Players appreciate the atmospheric art and immersive day-night cycle, which enhance the strategic depth, making it particularly appealing to fans of post-apocalyptic survival. However, some note a lack of background detail for materials as a minor drawback.

    • “Despite the graphics not being the best, this game has a weird atmosphere (but in a good way) where you feel safe behind the walls and you can just imagine yourself commanding the fighters to get on to the walls and defend the outpost.”
    • “The atmospheric art, immersive day-night cycle, and strategic depth make it perfect for fans of post-apocalyptic survival.”
    • “The atmosphere feels very simplistic and lacks depth, which detracts from the overall experience.”
    • “While the game has a relaxing ambience, the atmosphere is ultimately let down by its lack of background and context.”
    • “The atmosphere is pleasant but feels shallow, leaving players wanting more substance and detail.”
