How long can you survive in a post-apocalyptic world? Find out in Mini DAYZ now - an official pixel art rendition of the massively successful PC survival game - played by over 3 million fans. It is you against the world in Mini DAYZ: explore a randomly generated map and scavenge for food, ammo and supplies. Use anything you find to craft advanced items. Protect yourself against aggressive infected and ferocious wolves. But most important of all: make sure to stay dry, warm and well fed at all times. The weather out there can quickly get under your skin and your wounds will not heal without you treating them… There are no rules, except one - to survive. In Mini DAYZ: ● Explore a beautifully handcrafted, pixel-art-style open world map with signature buildings ● Gear up your character and try to survive for as long as possible using tons of loot ● Watch your health, hunger and thirst levels, prevent blood loss ● Keep on surviving to improve your character stats, receive perks and collect achievements for your efforts ● Grow plants, craft new items and build a makeshift base with campfire and fences ● Meet AI survivors, both friendly and hostile, and fight (or avoid) various kinds of dangerous, ever-lurking infected ● Make the wilderness your friend, not your enemy - use natural resources to stay alive ● Find your way during the day/night cycle and do your best to stay warm while it is raining or snowing ● No in-app purchases

This latest update, welcome and needed, thank you, has us combating random behemoths on the first island when you are very likely going to run into them (I ran into two in the first 10 minutes) wearing jeans and a T-shirt with a colt that you’ve probably used at least half the ammo. I play the survivor with the gun and “radar” perk, and 14 rounds on 45acp, at 3-4 rounds per zombie to kill it, isn’t a huge advantage. I decided to try pulling the regular difficulty to get the guns unlocked first. After at least a dozen games, none longer than 90 minutes, I unlocked the mac10 and the shotgun, (as yet to actually find one, though). Switched to Veteran to try unlocking the new characters, but the closest I have ever come to that was 2 completed tasks (a behemoth killed me before I picked up the reward). Way too hard to play. My wish list? I would like to see the islands difficulty ratings adjusted. I like the zoom out on it, but can you give us the ability to set our own screen resolution, and the joystick is practically near the middle of the screen, can we move it back to the corner? I play on an iPad Pro, so it’s a strain to hold the iPad and stretch my thumb all the way over there, very uncomfortable. As to the rest, we’ll keep playing as long as you keep providing us with this wonderful game, and you’ve done a GREAT job with fixes and content so far. Brilliant job.

This game is an excellent survival game with good rougelight elements to ensure replay ability. The survival portion is what you will be both struggling and enjoying the most of. Making difficult decisions based on current circumstances, learning which ammunition types go with which guns, completing quests for other survivors and even crafting! There is a surprising amount of depth making every run its own experience. Unlocking new starting characters and weapons feels pretty natural as most of the requirements will probably be completed on accident (except for that ‘find 6 choppa crashes in 1 run’ requirement, you ain’t getting that without intent). There is a couple weird/annoying bugs and designs that leave me scratching my head, Like the gun unlock requirements only update after you die meaning you can’t track your progress very well which is pretty annoying but still playable. The bugs are pretty stupid but not common, having a brute in the middle of a lake, all the buttons becoming GAINT for no reason and my personal favorite: the world just not loading leaving a completely walkable but empty white void between towns. Thankfully, all of these have been solved with just a simple reload. Overall I’m surprised not many have found this game and if you’re currently reading this review to decide on if you want to try I highly encourage you to play. This is easily one of the best mobile games I have ever played. Also…. IT’S NOT P2W!

I love this game. I can never get enough, though it drains my entire battery in 45 minutes. I don’t have anything negative to say and positivity would sound generic and bot-like, so I’ve come up with a wishlist. 1) MULTIPLAYER- I feel the ability to be running around and just finding and teaming up with another player would be awesome, especially for those harder difficulties like veteran. There could be a little chat option where the player can type to team up or just… chat. 2)SPECIFIC ISLAND GUIDES- When I start a game, I usually go around looting every town on the first island to get the best gear before I hit up island 2, which usually leaves me with 0 exploration or knowledge of island 2, and I end up dying because of walking into something I shouldn’t have. I think it’d be great to have island specific guides that could tell you basically what the different symbols mean, what new zombie types you’ll be facing, and so on. I just think that this would help people who are newer to the game or just don’t have much experience outside island 1 to get a better hold of the game and allow for better decision making.If you seriously read all that devs, I love you and I thank you sincerely for your time. You don’t have to follow my suggestions, I’ll still love the game anyways. Unless you make it harder. At which point there won’t be a point. Thank you for your time.

Honestly I would rate a 3.5. I’m not saying that this game is bad but the truth is that it’s mediocre. The things it does well are the looting and map design. I like how the map is always random. It’s does this very well but each town looks more or less the same. The food and thirst system needs a lot of improvement. I shouldn’t have to carry around 5 things of bacon just so I can go to the next town without starving to death. The one main complaint I have does involved the loot system (that is good for the most part). There’s no reason to keep playing once you get an assault rifle and vest so I’d like to make a recommendation. Why not allow players to keep loot in a storage locker of some sort. Allow players to build containers and weapon lockers. I would also make it to where you can respond as long as you have a fort but you would spawn at a random location and have to find it (the fort). You could still keep the one life per game n veteran but this would allow players to gradually build up the skills to play on veteran and allow more replay ability. This is a good game and I would recommend it but you need to be patient and tolerate some things. I hope this game continues to get regular updates like the PC version and I hope you take what I’m saying into consideration. I’d look into Escape From Tarkov and DayZ Epoch for some ideas.
