Absolutely my favorite phone game, I spent months playing. Outlanders 2 is fun, but this is definitely the better of the two games overall and I’m honestly just here to be another voice begging you to keep adding levels/challenges here too. PLEASE (and hopefully thank you 👀)
Constantly Crashes
App can’t stay on more than a few minutes without crashing completely
Awesome game
Love the game but it keeps crashing or keeping me out
Would be great if it were playable
Extremely fun, however crashes every three minutes making it unplayable
Great game but force close every 5 seconds
Great game but unplayable with how it close randomly
10/10
Wow! The details in this game are amazing! I kept finding little things in each level that just blew me away with how much attention the creators took. The puzzles were challenging without being too frustrating. The music was beautiful. Overall a really great game!
PLEASE FIXX THE CRASHING
Game crashes multiple times a day. My system is updated. Other than it cutting me off I completely enjoy this game in my spare time Don't get me wrong love the game but the crashing is horrible!! I don't like the newer version I just don't so please fix the crashing on this one.
Awesome game but the speed up bug…
I absolutely love this game! Although whenever I press the speed up button for any reason usually a few seconds later my game crashes. Please fix this bug immediately, I love this game but after my game crashing repeatedly over and over it gets very annoying and frustrating to deal with. Again please fix this bug immediately!!!
unplayable after a while
The game crashes in sandbox mode after your settlement becomes successful. I have now gotten to the point where my saves dont load and the game shuts down. It needs properly optimising
Game crashing
The game is but it is crashing a lot. Especially in sandbox mode.
Best mobile game I’ve ever played
Like the title says. Game is perfectly balanced with challenges and rife with unique artwork and creativity.
Bugs
I have this one level that just keeps bugging. One of them get stuck on something that’s being recycled and now nobody else will work.
.
Good game but it sometimes is too hard also add a decree where children can work if they want to
Was a great game! But…
This was my absolute favorite game in apple arcade. Its the whole reason I got the arcade subscription. But now it doesn’t want to load and seems to be disconnected from service. It even said that the subscription no longer supported it. Looks like I’ll be saving some money now that I don’t need it.
Amazing game but crashes
I love this game I played for hours. I even play Outlanders 2 but both of them have been crashing after about 30 minutes of play. I hate this please fix this bug.
Very fun casual strategy
I enjoyed this game but it does get repetitive
Terrible game
I was playing a level where you have to have at least 20 followers to pass, and I was at 19 on the last day and everyone DECIDED to not give birth, just to mess me up. This game will infuriate you so much, DO NOT GET
Insanely addictive
This is a great game, but I will say it took me some time to figure out that the clock showing how long it takes for things to grow is backwards. It does not go clockwise, it goes counterclockwise. So looking at how long it takes for corn to grow compared to pumpkins is confusing.
crashing
the game crashes everytime i try to open it.
Such An Amazing Game BUT CRASHES!!!
This is such a great title and you can tell so much detail was put in, but all of that hard work from the devs is going to waste because the game will only function for 5 minutes at a time before crashing and that’s being generous. So frustrating hope this is fixed :(
PLEASE UPDATE THIS GAME I BEG OF YOU
This has been my comfort game now since 2021 and I truly love every detail about this game. I have tried outlanders 2 and it is just not the same and doesn’t feel the same. I know many agree with me so I am coming here to please beg to update this game with at least 15-20 new levels so I don’t have to bother you for another couple of years PLEASE
App shutdown
I’ve been playing this game for about three years now and recently I have noticed it shuts down mid play. Today I have been playing for about an hour and it has shut down nine times.
Bad Game Save Mechanism
I really like this game, however, it does not save often enough. I come back to the game and lose about an hour of progress because the game doesn’t save regularly enough. It’s very frustrating when buildings already take so long to be put up.
Crashing in sandbox
So is no one in the developer team going to address the crashing issue in sandbox
Wish you could do more with sand box
I love this game, and think it’s better than the second one still. I just wish you could do more in the sandbox. It doesn’t let me go past 200 or so people, so it just becomes stagnant
Please make more levels!!!
This game is incomparable. Outlanders 2 is fun but everything about this version is just perfect. Please make more it’s the perfect game!!
Great potential
This game is so much fun to play and build, unfortunately the game crashes a lot. In sandbox mode every time my town gets close or over 100 people the file won’t load anymore and just closes the app.
Great Game! But One Problem…
This game is sooo much fun! I played it so much until I finally tried sandbox and I became more addicted to it. But as my village began to grow the game keeps crashing. Now I sandbox only last for about 5 minutes before it crashes and it keeps doing it. It’s a shame I had to delete it for that reason but the game is really fun.
PLEASE FIX
The game is great, my only issue is that it’s constantly crashing in sandbox mode.
Game
Game won’t stay open
Need More Levels
This is my favorite game. I have replayed all of the levels so many times. Literally my o my qualm is that the updates are so few and far between. I wish there were regular updates with new levels added. It’s hard to not want more.
Game keeps crashing
I absolutely love this game I have both outlanders and outlanders two however EVERYTIME I TRY TO PLAY SANDBOX THE GANE CRASHES 🙄 it had no problems until recently but I have no been able to play w/o the game crashing
Did something change?
I have loved this game for years, 99/100 achievements. but recently the game keeps crashing no matter what I do. I have reinstalled it, okayed different maps, different internet, all the things I can think of and nothing is working. Please fix.
Too hard to balance
Every time I start I immediately die because it’s too hard to start a farm and keep it running and making it so you can lose because your people aren’t happy. Makes the game way too hard.😢😢
Constantly crashes!
I would gladly give this game five stars if it didn’t constantly crash in sandbox mode! I’m basically stuck playing classic until this is fixed. That being said, classic is a lot of fun as well. The different challenges narrow the scope and make for quick and interesting plays.
MORE PLEASE
This is one of my favorite games to ever exist. I periodically check the App Store only for disappointment when there isn’t a new level. Please continue to make more. PLEASE.
Disappointed
This game doesn’t seem to work right. You can’t control anyone everyone runs off doing there own thing making everyone die or be unhappy cause no one gives a sheet if they would do what they are supposed to do everything would be fine. It’s like everyone is brain dead. No one does anything.
Wish it was playable without Apple Arcade
Great game. I download it whenever I get a month free of Apple Arcade. I would happily pay for the game to play it off Apple Arcade
PLEASE FIX CRASHING
I love this game but once you get to a certain point in the sandbox it crashes repeatedly PLEASE FIX THIS i want to keep playing but its making me mad
Used to be great
I used to play this a few years back, and it was great! After a while I undownloaded it to save room on my phone, but got it again on my iPad a few weeks back. Levels are great, challenging but fun. My only issue is with the sandbox mode. I know that it used to work, as I have a save with over 200 population, and almost an in game year play time. But now, saves won’t load. This includes one which I made very recently with only around 30 population. Sandbox mode seems to have stopped working outside of a single play session? Please fix this! I’d rate 5 stars if it worked properly.
so good
i honestly don’t leave reviews a lot but this game is so fun! i highly recommend! once you get the feel of how the game works its so fun and thought provoking! so glad to see there’s a second!!
Unplayable due to bugs
Can’t open the biggest levels, won’t acknowledge when objectives are met, such a beautiful game it’s such a shame that it’s no longer playable
Great! But just one problem
Everything is great but there is one thing that is bothering me: When I tap on the large map size and create my sandbox game, the app just crashes and I would really love it if you could fix this. It would add so much to the game otherwise the game is so much fun and I really enjoy playing it! Thank you, Alicia
Can’t read the text
I have pretty good vision but the text is so so small on my iPad mini, please make it bigger 🙃
Unfortunate glitch
It’s developed an unfortunate glitch of shutting down unexpectedly when other Apps provide news updates
i love outlander
i play hours on this game at once in one sitting it is fun i love outlander pls make more
I’m not that old! Too hard to understand
Couldn’t get passed the tutorial. I got stuck on “add the worker”. Unfortunately theres no button that says “add the worker” so had to delete the app. Please make the tutorial easier to understand. Hope you guys fix the bugs.
Love it, but maybe some new challenges
I adore this game, it is the only reason I have Apple Arcade! It looks really beautiful and it’s so fun to play, I love the fulfilling the concerns and all the new little food stalls and everything that can come along with new leaders. My only complaint is that the stockpile challenges can get tedious, I found the flood and fire chronicle boring towards the end as all the levels were just curating stock piles of different items. Just means that once you have everything optimally set up it’s just a matter of fast forwarding the game until you hit the number, not very challenging and a bit tedious towards the end.
Bad updated version
Who redesigned this UI? The worst interface I ever had. Too many unnecessary details. The shape and color of the tool bars are ugly. This is not like a game UI. It’s a PowerPoint. Change it back!
Bug not a feature
One stage, i needed 50 followers, had 100% happiness, 300 surplus food and chill decree. But they didnt have any babies. Restart fixed this. This was a bug. Very annoyed about this — otherwise a very good game
