  • Engaging 2D survival sandbox gameplay with many items, bosses, mobs, and exploration similar to Minecraft and Terraria but unique and well-made.
  • Smooth controls and graphics that run well on low-end devices; gameplay is addictive and fun to play solo or in multiplayer with friends.
  • Frequent updates adding new content including pets, bosses, texture packs, and helpful features like treasure chests, backpacks, and crafting improvements.
  • Excessive and intrusive ads that disrupt gameplay, including ads for rewards and frequent forced ads, frustrating many players.
  • Combat is unbalanced and difficult with enemies dealing high damage and players having limited health; armor and tools break too fast.
  • Bugs and glitches such as lost or disappearing items, animals, and progress; multiplayer sometimes unstable with lag, crashes, or connection issues.
  • monetization
    153 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Monetization in the game heavily relies on frequent and sometimes intrusive ads, including forced ads every few minutes and ads tied to key gameplay elements like repairing items and opening chests, which many users find excessive and disruptive. While the option to remove ads via a low-cost premium purchase (~$1.99) is appreciated, persistent ad-related bugs and the high ad frequency often detract from the experience. Many reviewers suggest reducing ad frequency, improving ad stability, and making rewarded ads optional to enhance enjoyment.

    • “This is one of the best games I have found on the Play Store, and only $1.99 for no ads is very worth it!!”
    • “No ads is nice but now I can't get free coins or the 'gift' boxes for watching an ad. It would be nice if there was either a way to turn that off or random gifts in the game to replace that.”
    • “And oh yeah, one thing: tools break so fast, and you have to add a backpack and changing game modes you need to buy no ads.”
    • “Too many ads... I've already watched ads for the furnace, anvil, treasure chest, coins, death, teleport, spin the wheel, and break the box; these pointless pop-ups just make playing the game unenjoyable.”
    • “Although having to watch an intrusive and annoying ad every 3-5 minutes—like clockwork—is enough for me to uninstall and move on to trying to find something similar to this game, but with far less intrusion of ads.”
    • “The ads are very infuriating as they appear frequently, ranging from 6 to 8 seconds long at least.”
  • gameplay
    52 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally praised for being fun, smooth, and addictive with enjoyable mechanics such as taming, combat, and exploration, though many note its strong similarities to Minecraft and Terraria. Players appreciate the multiplayer and single-player modes, variety of content, and evolving challenges, but request more originality, improved combat systems, bug fixes, and additional features like mod support, enchantments, and expanded worlds to enhance long-term engagement. Some frustrations include ads affecting gameplay, multiplayer lag, limited mechanics, and occasional bugs impacting progress.

    • “The taming mechanics are probably my favorite part, along with the mummy and demon boss attack patterns.”
    • “This game has unique survival gameplay (similar to Terraria and Minecraft), unique 3D & 2D style design, achievements, secrets, characters & lots of items, mobs, monsters, weapons, and much more.”
    • “Goated game, been playing it for more than 2 years and it has stayed basically the same all throughout. The gameplay is very smooth and there are plenty of things to do in the game.”
    • “The only thing I don't like is that it's not really original; almost everything is the same as Minecraft including the blocks, monsters, mechanics, and items.”
    • “There are also some cheaty gameplay mechanics to make you watch ads like for revives or to open loot chests without gold.”
    • “I keep seeing monsters in my house that is full of torches but monsters still spawn. The lizard is not very useful due to its slowness, range, and poor jump; you really can't use it to fight, just to kill your farm animals. The pig, however, is very useful. Please buff the lizard and tweak spawning mechanics of monsters.”
  • graphics
    48 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics are praised for their charming, simple pixel-style and smooth performance, offering a colorful and unique 2D/3D blend that runs well even on low-end devices. While many find the art style cute and fitting for the gameplay, some users suggest improvements for clearer textures and more vibrant visuals to enhance comfort and immersion. Overall, the graphics are considered good and well-optimized, contributing positively to the game's fun and creative experience.

    • “The graphics are simple yet charming, with a pixel-style design that runs smoothly even on low-end devices.”
    • “It's original, its overall game mechanics are outstanding and the graphics are just astounding considering this is a 2D game.”
    • “A magnificent work, beautiful graphics, unique combination between 2D and 3D, nice and easy control all in one game.”
    • “It's a nice game except the graphics are a little bad when playing it; if the graphics were better, it would be more comfortable to play the game.”
    • “This game graphics are so bad, and it needs to be colorful or allow us to change the graphics.”
    • “But please clear the graphics; I can't tell if it's a chicken or a zombie.”
  • story
    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players appreciate the game's creative open-world style but find the story aspect lacking, with many calling for a more developed narrative, diverse quests, and unique bosses. Requests include adding storyline elements, greater quest variety, challenging missions, new worlds or dimensions, and a meaningful ending to enhance long-term engagement. Overall, the story is seen as minimal or missing, and its improvement is a common suggestion for future updates.

    • “The game itself is an instant 10/10, the only problem is the lack of story, unique bosses, new weapons that are very hard to get (long crafting recipes or a small chance of dropping from unique bosses), bigger map, different modes like a virus that spreads and strengthens monsters and items to deal with it like in Terraria.”
    • “Finishing it in hardcore mode was such a great experience, and collecting rare items and books from underground chests was very enjoyable. This game is still very enjoyable even after you finish all the missions.”
    • “Very good game love but only if there were more biomes and more dimensions and also something like a backstory on how we end up here and an achievement when you discover the way to get out of the island, it'd be cool.”
    • “The quests could be improved by having more variety, and villages could be made different.”
    • “It would be great if there were more mobs, bosses, ores and quests and achievements, maybe dimensions.”
    • “Very good game love but only if there were more biomes and more dimensions and also something like a backstory on how we end up here and an achievement when you discover the way to get out of the island; it'd be cool.”
  • stability
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Stability in the game is mixed, with many users reporting bugs such as disappearing items, glitchy crops, block placement issues, and occasional crashes, especially in multiplayer modes. While single-player gameplay is generally stable and enjoyable, multiplayer tends to have more frequent bugs and glitches that impact the experience. Overall, the game is fun but could benefit from significant stability improvements.

    • “My plants constantly disappear, and when trying to replace tilled soil with other blocks, it sometimes glitches back, destroying the other block.”
    • “Lost Miner devs, this game is really fun to play in single player mode, but when me and my friends played multiplayer in global or co-op, it gets very buggy.”
    • “Good game but so many bugs; my items always disappear, and crops are buggy too.”
  • music
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players appreciate the game's music, describing it as nostalgic and a valuable part of the experience, but many express a desire for consistent background and menu music, including boss themes. Several users note issues with music cutting out upon entering the game and request its return in newer versions or PC releases. Overall, while music enhances enjoyment, its absence or removal negatively impacts player immersion.

    • “Well, good job Suggestions: maybe you can add some background music and release it on PC or other devices :)”
    • “Amazing, multiplayer and a lot of features but too easy to beat in my opinion. There should be more end game things to do and maybe more advancements. Also, why did you remove the loading screen music? It's amazing.”
    • “I wish they had added music to the game, because it is just silence.”
    • “Lost all my achievements and the music cuts off as soon as I enter the world.”
    • “I miss the menu music, so nostalgic.”
  • grinding
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in the game involves extensive farming, crafting, fighting, and resource gathering, which many find fun and addictive but occasionally hindered by bugs and balance issues. Some players report frustrating glitches affecting farming mechanics and inventory, leading to lost progress and increased difficulty even on easy mode. Despite these drawbacks, the variety of activities and overall gameplay remain highly enjoyable for most users.

    • “It's therefore too grindy and difficult even in 'easy' mode.”
    • “Really fun and addicting game in all but I experienced a really big bug and I quit... so I had 27 hours of gameplay in my world and completed nearly every achievement but I tried to log on one day in my world and I had nothing in my inventory and I was holding all my most valuable stuff like full diamond and all my valuable ores... so I quit because like 15 of those 27 hours were spent farming.”
    • “I really like the game, it's fun to play, but there are some bugs and balance issues that just ruin it, especially when farming and fighting.”
