It needs creative mode

It’s a really fun good game but it needs creative mode so we can build and get whatever we want but but the rest of it’s fine but we shouldn’t be able to swap when we want. Oh, I had to be able to play some creatures and build stuff without having to get the resources.

Good game but crashed and glitched a lot on IPad Pro 11

I thought the new IPad Pro can handle this game but instead it crashed more than my old IPad Pro. Also, quite ridiculous message appeared warning me that the tablet can handle its demanding graphic. No such message appeared on my old one.
The game is good but as a pocket version, it lacked all the constant updates and care that don’t starve together version has. This one has so much potential and I wish the developers would care more for this little game.

Best mobile game

The game is just like the PlayStation game although, the sound is slightly off for some things such as planting plants and bushes also for me there is a bug that the bush when dug becomes a very odd texture. Other than that an excellent game very much worth the purchase

Just something.

I’d appreciate if Hamlet got a mobile port alongside some of the newcomers (Wortox, Wanda, etc) as either paid extras or hidden similar to Webber & Woodlegs, Overall a terrific game. 5/5 Bought the PC and Xbox ports alongside Don’t Starve Together.

Don’t understand what’s suddenly wrong?

I’ve purchased a new Ipad. I’ve played this game before it’s my all time favourite game so it was the first thing I’ve downloaded. I don’t understand why I got a message saying I would experience lag in gameplay? Surely if it worked on my older IPad, it should work on my new one? How disappointing. Gutted.

Don’t starve is brilliant

This is top class, there’s so much satisfaction to be had.
I really hope you add some more of the don’t starve together content into this title.
Like the beefalo riding is amazing.
And I have to report a bug…. Sorry
Every time I enter the tombs it crashes
The music drags, I can’t move. And basically I have to turn it off.
Is that a problem most people have, it means I can never enter the tomb and I lose all my progress with character.

Love the game but a glitch is driving me insane

Love the game, but the update has made it impossible to place any wooden fences or gates without crashing the game. A large warning box appears and the only option is to restart the game, which means all the progress I make is reversed because it is an emergency crash. Why fences no longer work I don’t know, but maybe fixing it would be good. It’s been ignored for a while and I’m kinda annoyed that the creators haven’t bothered to fix it

I think the game is amazing but one thing I would add is you need fresh water just like the hunger bar in the game and you can boil water over a fire to make it clean.

Please add better controls

Can we please get a better set of controls. Many other mobile games use a sort of digital analog stick to control movement. It is much easier and more comfortable to use not to mention more responsive.
At the moment having to tap on the screen where you want to move to makes the game quite hard to play in a comfortable/relaxed handheld position.
Aside from that, the game is great!

Love this game but want podcast to work

I love this game. Have clocked so many hours on this. One small improvement would be to have apple’s podcast to play while you are running around trying not to die.
Otherwise I love it

I love this game!

This is one of my favourite games and I love Webber. He is my favourite character. I like how everyone has a different personality and how well thought out this game actually is. Who would you say is the best character for non-experts?
Also, apparently you can fix bugs really fast, so here's a bug for you!
When you dig up the three leafed berry bush, the texture is really odd.
Do you have any tips on how to win this game?
Also, add the quality of life update, I want to write on signs!
Also, HUGE BUG. The virtual stick causes SERIOUS problems as Willow, as it causes you to interact with things underneath it. This needs fixing URGENTLY!
Keep up the good work Klei!

Good but where’s everything else

I like the game however all the content on the pc isn’t here and brings the game down, such as the skins,new dlc, and characters so this game is extremely dated compared to pc there also isn’t any multiplayer unlike console or pc.

Good game bad controls

I need to have my thumb over the tiny patch of screen I'm trying to look at whilst placing an item. This game is badly let down by an awkward, annoying and often unresponsive control system. Almost like it was written for mouse control, which would be silly! Because this is a mobile game....... over to you, lazy devs.
A couple of years later update, just played again and came to exactly the same conclusions. Lazy lazy lazy programming.

Corrupt save file ALL THE TIME!

I have 4 times corrupt save file, around 100 days to 271 days. I swear to god I have closed all the running apps while playing the game, there’s 100% no accidentally closing down, there’s no long pause during the game(longest time was within a minute). I don’t know what else I could do, please fix this bug then I will change this review, expect that I love this game.

Great game, bugs issue

I absolutely LOVE this game. I could play for hours and never get bored. It’s one of my favourite games I have ever purchased and I still play it to this day. I have experience some issues with the game. I often encounter bugs, I often quickly change from the hud to the crafting menus, and the bug is that the character doesn’t move and cannot access the menu. It’s frustrating as I have to quit and load back and lose my progress. And I experience this bug often. Also the game should be updated for better improvements, gameplay and updated items like a thermal stone with a percentage show show how hot or cold it is like the pc version. I really hope the developers get this message because I love this game to bits and love to see it improved.

Amazing but there are some problems

I think this game is amazing but the main problem I would think is that it stays on the exact same version of don’t starve and I would love it if you added the most recent pc updates so us on mobile can enjoy the new goodness. Also this is just recommendation but it would be great if you added the app version of hamlet anyway hope you listen to this recommendation Klei you do great work.

Don’t wait, buy.

Quite easily one of the best games ever made. Obviously plays a lot better on PC/console, but still very enjoyable once you gets the hang of the pocket edition controls (playing on iPhone 10s).

Good game but

Started the game having met any problems but loving it however when I loaded the game it says it was not supported properly. I have an IPad Air 3 which I thought to be good enough. Don’t know if that message is incorrect or not. A message back into why would be great

This is a great game but there is a really big problem with the virtual stick, if something is underneath it it will open a box rather than moving the virtual stick please fix this as this causes death in critical situations.

Letterboxing update removed full screen on Xs Max

Game is grate but the latest update which suppose to fix letterboxing actually created letterboxing. Previous version played in full screen and looked much better, issue with icons covered by faceid camera was easily fixed by rotating phone so camera was on right hand side of the screen not covering anything. Now we have two side black bars and on top of it bottom black bar. Completely wrong. Please revert this change or give an option to have full screen on iPhone Xs Max.

Love the game, dislike the App!

Don't starve is one of my fav games, however I've had the app on my Samsung, and now on my new Iphone and all in all there's always little annoying issues with it. Now for instance there's no sound. Really disappointing for an app you pay 4,99£ for. Hope they fix all these little bugs sometime.
That reminds me, writing to customer support is as hard as ever, not good when something needs reported/fixed!

MULTIPLAYER

Just to say, I LOVE don’t starve and so does my friend but the main reason we got the game was because we thought it was multiplayer like the pc version. So if ya could Please PLEASE add a multiplayer mode.

AMAZING

This game is my favourite survival game yet! It’s awesome that you put in a menu to customise how many foods trees enemies etc. I brought this game as soon as it came out but I didn’t have enough time to write a review. I would give this game 10\10 :D

2018-02-27

Just not for me I guess

I played it for a few hours, but just kept dying over and over again. So I put it to easy mode but then realised that with out a goal beyond survival and with the days being so short to do anything before you have to stop and you’re getting food all the time. I realised that I was just not having fun. Maybe I’ll come back, but I don’t have much free time and if I put 3 hours in a game and feel that I’ve wasted it I think I should move on.

😍 I LOVE IT!

Don’t Starve is a great game, very imaginative and the things the character say are funny, but the new update means I don’t know how long until I get a new character. I think it was good knowing, so please make it so I can see how long. Apart from that THE GAME IS GREAT 👍🏻 AND IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY GOT IT YOU TOTALLY SHOULD!!! 💖

Help

I just want to say that the game is overall good actually great! But my only problem is sometimes the reaction time of the movement stick in game is really slow. Thats why I am not able to Kite (hit run away hit) is there anyway that you could help me with this. Also my other problem is that placement of anything placable really. I know the original game there’s none of that but, there’s mods for PC. Is there anyway that we can have guidance for Pocket Edition. Thanks again Klei.

Just asking cause it will be really good

I love this game , I think it's great , the graphics are great and the little details they have added it , seems to be exactly the same as the pc version. Not quite sure if they have added the pig king into this app due to not being able to find him , but other then that over all an amazing game and defiantly worth the month :).

Great game

This is one of my favourite games ever but I have a few things you could add
1- please add a together feature because it’s really annoying when I want to play with a friend or make a separate app for together
2- please add juicy berries as they are just a good feature and allow you to get rot quicker(to fertilise)

Saving The Game

First of all, I must say that I am very happy with the service this game delivers - a couple of weeks ago I wrote a review about a crash bug and it was promptly fixed by Klei. And now, there is something else that's been on my mind for a very long time that I'd like to say: there needs to be a separate button on the pause menu to manually save the game due to the fact that the game doesn't save every day. Meaning that you may make a whole day or two's progress and swiftly lose it because it crashes. There is a way to counteract this already but its slow and often unreliable - you save and quit the game and go back in. This can be very irritating because you have to repeat this process every time you progress. So I think that this feature is absolutely necessary.
