MONEY THEIF
I owned the game about 3 times. I deleted the first time with some data, downloaded and had my saved data. I got a few dlc, and a few months ago the app banished from my device. I didn’t think much of it and just moved on, downloaded it again, and everything was gone. My saved data, PAID DLC, everything. I’m incredibly ticked, I very much so want a refund or at least, MY DLC. I would not recommend this game if you (I’m sure you don’t) don’t like ads to even get minor things, paid to EVEN HAVE YOUR MELLOWS LIVE. Oh and tons of bugs. Otherwise this is the game.
Great game ! BUT …
This game is so fun and I enjoy playing it. I think it would be more enjoyable if there was more buildings and jobs etc. like you could add a campfire that someone keeps running, or add something to progress the game along the lines of evolution idk but something like that!
Super buggy.
I love this game don’t get me wrong but there’s so many bugs that make this game so frustrating to play such as the mellows not doing their tasks, claiming they lack resources when they do not, mallows sometimes getting stuck places, among many others.
Why money
Why do you need to pay just so that they don’t freeze. And then for wath do you need fire wood you can’t get a fireplace and I haven’t seen a mellow turning on a fire so for WAT IS THERE FIRE WOOD!!!?
great game!
Very fun!! I wish there were a few more features without dlc but overall very fun game!
Greed
Soulless trash
Very good game but it’s pay to win
this game is very enjoyable, but some crucial things that you need for this game is in the $6 dlc. if it weren’t for the dlc, then i would enjoy the game way more.
This is SO ANNOYING
The game is fun and all but it lacks in updates no new buildings, and no new items. Also one the tools are gone and no more items to make them YOU HAVE TO RESTART THE GAME ITS SOOOOOOO ANNOYING
Game stalls after a while
You need wood to progress, to get wood you need an axe. You can’t get an axe because you have no wood. The game literally stops right there. No way for you to survive unless you buy something. Please fix.
Update
10/10 would love to see more mellow villagers 🥺🫶
Auto Craft
This game is great but honestly it was amazing at first After years of playing they literally need to add an auto craft feature otherwise you are just literally wasting so much time crafting individual items But we will never get an update I bet Also we need more ways to make gold coins easily This is ridiculous
Pretty good overall
You have to pay for the very best experience, but overall it's great, it doesn't shove ads in your face
Good
Lee
Needs an update
Great game but it’s been too long and needs an update.. also the ad bar at the bottom is ridiculous
The best
Best game i have played in a while on mobile keep up the good work
Cash grab
Everthing u want to do is with ads
coolio
Good game I just wish I could automate what they do instead of having to control everything
A bunch of bugs!
To start, whenever a child was supposed to grow, it would stay as a child. It would do everything it needed to do at that age, but up until 25 it would remain a child. Then, when it became fall, there was always atleast one tree with green still on it !! Some of the mellows (or fruit pickers) would stand like a bit away from the tree and try to shake it, and they would stand there for hours tryna get apples. It’s ridiculous. But the game hasn’t asked me for money at all, and the plot seems good. The other problem is that you finish the game (without premium) in 10 minutes max.
Great
I love this game it’s fun it does have glitches I built some farms but after I removed one it wouldn’t let me build another, also it does not allow you to save your progress so after getting a new phone I could not get my game data back after paying for all the upgrades
The mellow world
Great game all around but i would like some of the dlcs ubtanable by beating the game so many times
Good idea, bad game.
Most of the game is locked unless you buy it, and it’s still riddled with adds. This “free” game a lots of bugs, such as; when there is a worker/builder looking for resources, they sometimes just don’t go and get them, even when they’re “on brake”. This “game” is pay to play.
Cool but one problem
I love this game but theres a slight problem. Every time i play for a while, it randomly kicks me out of the game and it doesnt save as it what was on it before it making me upset, SO PLEASE REMOVE THIS BUG AND SAVE THE GAME YOU HAVE PLAYED
money trap
the max level that you can reach is 23 then you are required to pay so you can’t collet 10 coin at the level 29 and open the features.
Mellows get pregnant and won’t give birth?
I enjoy this game it’s fun and it’s easy. Very trial and error. As of recent I started playing and my female mellows will get pregnant and stay pregnant. Bug needs fixed. I hate how the only happiness is when a child is born without buying a pack or something. I would appreciate maybe adding something that would be in base game for happiness aside from children being born!
Idk
What did you think I was going to put? “It’s a very good game I recommend!”.
need to buy dlc or your people will die
I understand people pay for benefits but makes no sense to pay to keep my people not 'unhappy' or warm for example...
Great game
One thing I would like to see however is more content
Too short
In my opinion, the game would be great if it had more to it. Cause in 20-30 minutes, you’ve already did all that you could do without paying extra on the DLC and it’s not a small price either. It’s cute and all but not worth it except if they would offer more development for us to play free.
Fun at first
The game was pretty fun to play at first while your developing. But you'll quickly have made everything there is to make, and the game stops registering all the characters, it'll show them moving around, but things won't be working or getting made. So it's kind of buggy late game.

Amazing features and good playing amazing for kids
Another ads heavy game
Need to watch a lots of ads to build a simple first home!
More threats needed
I would like if the game posed more threats like wolfs that attacked if hunted or a battle mode where there’s a opposing tribes, but the game is great and I love the mechanics but I’d just like more of a challenge. Thanks for reading
Broken ad system
You watch a 30 second add to reduce your build time ? In game time stops so you watch a 30 second add to remove 30 seconds? There’s no incentive to watch the adds ?. Fix this I only just started but I’ll review once I get a bit more play time in.
good game, but buggy
i really like this game, however there are a lot of things wrong with it. once you get stuck there’s not a way to fix it you just have to restart. it’s kinda buggy and what i’m currently facing is that i’ve have mellows pregnant for a few seasons and they won’t give birth anymore. i would like it better if i could progress through one map and fill it up before experiencing these bugs.
👍👍👍
Best game
DLC DOESN’T RESTORE
I love this game and loved it when I bought it a while back with all the DLC. Unfortunately, the game is riddled with bugs that render it unplayable. To being unable to load the game to mellows being permanently pregnant, the developers haven’t communicated about any of these issues. Worst of all, after upgrading to a new iPhone my purchases can’t be restored despite using my same account. So I’m out my money and left with an empty nothing burger of a game without it - one that consistently breaks.
Game is good BUT…
It needs a lot of minor improvements, such as fixing the bugs that can cause your game to soft lock, your purchases to disappear, your villagers to not do their jobs or to return home. This game has so much potential, but just falls short slight. Things I think could improve gameplay experiences: - More housing upgrade options - The ability to make ships and send Mellows on adventures to find more land, other Mellows, and or resources. - More personalities for the Mellows - More leisurely/hobbies for the Mellows; a park with maybe a point and benches, community building where they can hang out, more jobs such as food vendors. - More jobs; food vendors (can hold all food items), clothing store (where clothing items can be stored rather than the storage and hold more), collage professor (gives selected Mellows a higher education to have better jobs), researcher (a scientist Mellow who went to college and researches plants and minerals, maybe to make healing potions more effective or for better items and technology, doctor (A Mellow who went to college to help fellow Mellows live longer, have babies, provide surgeries for Mellows (A new type of “sickness” that cannot be cured by potions). These are just a few ideas I have, but I’m pretty sure this will fall on deaf ears.
It’s not terrible but it isn’t good
It could use some work, like making storage customizable to keep tools, potions, materials, and foods separate and organized. It’s also pretty boring after an hour or two max. It’s a small game that has a few buildings and after a couple of hours you’ll have 50 of every building since there’s so little. It’s cool they throw in plagues to spice things up a bit though
Glitches
Buildings glitch. Kids don’t go to school lol and my forge won’t take any wood.
Great game!
Love this game! But I do think the mellows should be able to fish. There’s a lot of water but nothing to do with it! And also it can get a little boring after a while once you have all the buildings so maybe you could add more animals such as wolves and bears and that if your mellows get too close will get hurt, and after a while predators will attack, this would add new jobs, clothes, and sources
Doesn’t work???
Trying to build a house or wood shed but they are just wondering around doing nothing, can’t select them or give them a job, no tutorial??? Stupid
THE ADs
The game is amazing dont get me wrong but I swear I have to watch a 2 minute ad every time I want a small upgrade that barely effects the game.
Was fun until bug
I enjoyed the game unit I got this weird loading bug. When I tried to get in the game. The screen just went gray and did nothing. Then shut off. Disappointed
Too much money needed
Too much money is needed to unlock the game. It would be nice if the more you play the more you unlock. The game is also buggy.
:D
I love this game, it’s so much fun, especially when you’re thriving. This has to be one of my favorite games. The one thing I would request is if in settings you could turn the temperature into Fahrenheit, and if there is a way, can someone please tell me how to?
Too laggy when i played it
Its too hard its trash and get a life man lol I even use a MacBook Pro air 3 and its buggy.
Very good would download
Super good game only 3 new changes: 1. Make schools free (i feel like this would make sense) 2. Add a way to prioritize a build 3. Make a way for us to tell how long is left on a season
AI makes me quite unmellow
the ai is absolute garbage and if someone gets stuck they will stay there. forever. also they are the dumbest mfkers ive ever seen, like my storage silo is right next to them, full of all the resources they could ever need, and they continue to wander aimlessly ‘trying to find resources’
When you run out of stuff
The game is fun and keeps me interested for a long time but when you run out of à resource like wood and all of your lumberjacks’s need a new axe it becomes so annoying and I wish their was like a add thing that would only pop up when you run out of à resource and all of the people that get that resource need the tool to get inte resource à be add pops up that gives you like 50 of the resource that you need to keep playing they game. Sorry is this is hard to understand.
