- “Outstanding game with beautiful graphics.”
- “Great survival game, graphics are good and realistic.”

The game suffers from numerous stability issues, including frequent crashes, bugs causing items and structures to disappear, freezing during crafting or loading, and lag during multiplayer sessions. These glitches significantly impair gameplay, resulting in lost progress and frustrating experiences despite the game's potential and enjoyable core mechanics. Players strongly urge developers to address these problems to improve stability and overall playability.
- “Too many crashes, glitches, and lags.”
- “The game is far too glitchy/buggy for any sort of actual 'fun' gameplay.”
- “I loved it the first day, but after that it became so buggy with spears falling to the ground, structures disappearing, not being able to break anvils and furnaces, tools not working properly, and when you respawn to fix it, they disappear.”

The gameplay is generally praised for its engaging survival mechanics, building, and crafting systems, though users frequently note issues with bugs, glitches, and loading problems that disrupt the experience. Players desire improvements in building controls, aiming mechanics, saving systems, and additional features like dynamic weather, animal interactions, and offline play. Despite these flaws, the gameplay is considered enjoyable and has strong potential with further development.
- “Good game, the best among all survival games on mobile that I've played. The crafting is pretty realistic, and building mechanics are good. One suggestion: please add a HUD showing the amount of materials needed when using the blueprint feature. Overall, great game, especially for survival fans.”
- “The game itself is very good in gameplay but there are still a lot of bugs and glitches. I only comment on games I really enjoy, so I look forward to the full and final version. Thank you.”
- “Amazing game if you are looking for that man vs wilderness gameplay.”
- “Fix the building mechanics like being able to rotate or turn the stairs, walls something like that. Please make the tall stair (the one that is turning the way up) placeable without any foundations.”
- “The crafting mechanic can be frustrating for the amount of time it takes to make items.”
- “The game is far too glitchy/buggy for any sort of actual 'fun' gameplay.”
monetization

Monetization in the game is characterized by frequent ads, with some users finding them excessive and occasionally unskippable, causing frustration. However, others appreciate that ads are not overly intrusive during key gameplay moments and acknowledge the developers' restraint compared to other mobile games. Suggestions include adding more ways to earn in-game currency and reducing ad frequency to enhance the overall experience.
- “Along with an excessive amount of ads.”
- “There are so many ads.”
- “It looks like a good game but it takes way too long to load and some of the ads you can't skip; I looked for the close button on one of the ads for 5 minutes.”

Users appreciate the game's foundational plot but strongly desire a richer, more structured storyline with quests, cutscenes, and progression elements such as player levels and achievements. They suggest adding diverse animals, crafting options, exploration areas, and multiplayer features to deepen the narrative and gameplay experience. However, many note bugs, lack of tutorials, and limited story development, urging developers to enhance story immersion and challenge.
- “It's a perfect game with a good plot, starting out with an axe. Adding bots—people you find who join your house or village—and multiplayer would make it even better.”
- “It's a great game with lots of potential. Suggestions include adding story cut scenes, ruins, caves, villages, and more crafting to enrich the storyline and overall experience.”
- “The game is amazing and incredible. Adding a story to your character, quests, and expanding the island would enhance immersion and gameplay depth.”
- “It is a good game but the glitches are very bad and you should add a storyline mode so when we complete a quest we get some coins and then you don't have to purchase it.”
- “Hey developers please make a good game I know you make this game with hard work but you have to give more effort. First, you have to add more stuff, weapons, and items, and you have to make a storyline to complete the game, for example, to kill a very difficult creature. Also, make other islands to explore and improve the graphics because they are not that good.”
- “I was hoping for other enemies like 'orang asli' or some kind of smuggler that use the island as a base as we embark on missions to disable them and can come back to the mainland using their transportation or something.”

- “Animations are hilarious, game just works but it seems like it is abandoned.”
- “This game is good, I had some funny moments with other people .”
- “I wish in Play Store there were infinite stars to give this game... This is so funny sometimes I kill a server's owner and steal his/her items and break his/her house, so funny . In easy words, this is the best game I have found... Thanks to developers (catsbit) but please add some more recipes for crafting.”

Users generally find the game fun but highlight significant optimization issues, including lag, connection problems, and performance drops when facing specific areas. They request better performance stability, bug fixes, and smoother gameplay alongside richer content additions. Overall, while optimization currently hampers the experience, there is hope for improvements in future updates.
- “This survival game is the best, I hope you keep updating this game. The optimization impresses me, although there are some bugs like players not appearing on my screen while I appear on theirs. I also hope you add a mini helicopter (2 seats), more armor, guns, and items.”
- “It would be better if there were: foliage, character customization, rivers, lakes, different tree variants, optimized performance, and disabling disconnection after the host leaves—instead, assign a random player as the new host.”
- “The game is extremely fun but needs to be more alive. Please add caves, cannibals inside the caves, water, thirst, more animals, better AI, actual grass instead of just green landscape, lakes, treasures, bushes, more ores, better textures, and an optimized game because every time I face towards my house it starts lagging.”
- “The game is extremely fun but it needs to be more alive please add caves, cannibals inside the caves, water, thirst, more animals, give better AI and add actual grass, not just a green landscape, lakes, treasures, and optimize the game because every time I face towards my house it starts lagging. Although the game is still fun, please add bushes, more ores, better textures, but also optimize it.”
- “It would be better if there were: foliage, character customization, rivers, lakes, different tree variants, optimized performance, and disable disconnection after host leaves. Instead, make a random player the new host.”
- “This survival game is the best, I hope you keep updating this game and the optimization. I'm impressed, but there are a lot of bugs such as players not appearing on my screen, but I'm appearing on theirs. I also hope you add a mini heli with 2 seats, more armors, guns, and items.”
grinding

Grinding in the game is a lengthy and sometimes frustrating process, involving hours of resource collection and crafting, but players often feel vulnerable due to lack of security features like lockable doors. Many users suggest adding farming, more animals, and base defense mechanics to improve the overall experience and make grinding more rewarding. While some find grinding enjoyable, repeated losses from PvP or hackers can diminish its appeal.
- “I spent 8 hours grinding to get loot and make guns.”
- “After several hours of grinding, I lost all of my stuff getting killed. I wish there were more items and an option to turn off PvP.”
- “Food is very hard to obtain. Please add farming or increase the spawn rate of animals like deer.”
