Wilderless 4+

Honestly one of the best games

I just got the game and I’m honestly amazed all of the worlds I’ve tired are so thought out and unique in there own way. It’s so refreshing to not have to stress about tasks or anything and just enjoy the world the way I want the only problem I’ve been having is a small bug. Whenever I try to load up one of my memories or have been playing for a minute it crashes, which is kind of disappointing because I would love to play this game for hours on end. But nobody’s perfect and i know it will probably be fixed in an update so I’m not too worried. Still amazing to play and I don’t think I’ll ever delete it. Also a serious help with my anxiety. It calms me down☺️☺️

I just released a new update 1.6 with optimizations that might help. I really do want to make as many people as possible able to enjoy my games so I am constantly working on ways to make them better and learning more from books and articles about ways to optimize them.

First it's good to clear out any quality settings that might around fro before. Either delete then reinstall the game (that will clear everything) or on the splash screen goto the top left option button, and in the next screen click RESET ALL.

Then, on the splash screen, click the button top right called OPTIMIZE. In the next screen, turning on the big toggle will save a lot of memory and may help with crashes. But you can also try turning on any or all of the other optimize buttons on that screen, and reduce the tree density a little or a lot. If any of this helps and you have a better experience, it will help me if you consider updating your review - only if you want to. And it will also help me if you let me know if the update makes things better. You can email me at Robert at Protopop dot com and let me know.

Not enough

Love the open world concept. Love how you can change the way you jump and stuff. However I wish that there was character customization and I wish that there was a purpose to this game. It’s open world and you run around, but that’s it. You’re not collecting anything, there’s no goals. There’s no other people like a hometown village where you can buy stuff sell things you might find. The mushrooms don’t have a purpose and the big giant rock that follows you around doesn’t have a purpose either. Would be cool if you could hunt, and collect herbs, wood (for the fire) or to
Build a cabin. I mean you can place a cabin anywhere so that’s cool but it disappears when you get back in the game or when you
Build another one somewhere else. Would be cool if there was a map as well so you can mark your location and know where you explored and where you’ve been. This game has the right idea of open world exploration in the wilderness but it needs a purpose. Also, there are way too many worlds for a game with no purpose. Get rid of a few worlds and add the things mentioned and you’d have the perfect game. And maybe do add some enemies here and there, add a bow and arrow or a sword. Add giants you can fight and animals you can befriend to follow you around like a wolf or a bear or even lion or a dog. Over all this game is fun at first but running Around and not doing anything gets repetitive and boring really fast.

Thanks Danyurco:) Many of these features are coming in updates. Character customization was added in update 1.5, along with new shape changes. I am updating the house and adding dungeons underground in the next update 1.6. I plan on adding a lot to increase the amount of details in teh game world because I love exploring it too. it takes some time because I am the only one working on this, but over time I hope to get all of my updates online. And thank you for giving me 3 stars even with your concerns because every star helps me:)

Overall beautiful

To put it simply, this game is absolutely stunning. The controls to fine tune the weather and environment are something you don’t see very often especially on a mobile device game. I love Tom he simplicity of the game, just open the app and explore. The reasoning behind my 4 star review is that as a designer myself I feel that there could be more to do. Maybe not so much more to do but more to see and explore such as monument type areas. Maybe a few villages here and there, rivers and waterfalls, animals such as deer and foxes and rabbits. Simple creatures that you could run up to and shape shift into them. Maybe more character animations like drinking from streams of eating mushrooms, making your own campfire from gather material and being able to sit down weather that be on the ground or in your home on the bed or in a chair. Those are just a few recommendations I can think of as of now. That being said I think this game is amazing as is for a brief relaxation session. As I sit here writing this review I am imagining myself playing this game with the added features I have mentioned and could see myself playing for an hour plus using it as time to think of creative ideas for my own projects. Thank you for the beautiful game hope to here from you.
