Smalland: Survive the Wilds Reviews

Still haven't fixed flying with controller with (redacted). So will probably never play again but was still worth the investment. Very fun to play.

This is a great game! Highly recommended. Great graphics, great game play loop!

I really enjoyed taming the bug though i do wish for there to be more tames that you can mount and for some of the bugs to have more uses ex ability tp collect more resource etc it would also be better if i could pick items from the mount since i mainly go around using my mount since i'm bad at combat

I love this game. The environment, graphics and music make it very immersive. I do have a continual problem with an error DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG that is aggravating but it must have something to do with Unreal Engine 4 because it happens occasionally on one other game which also happens to be UE4. Even with the crashing every 1/2 hour or so it's been a very fun game.

Very fun guided survival game with a challenging endgame, You can customize your world server specs (weather timers, day/night cycles, pet settings). Can be played online or offline which is fantastic if you want to slowly work through your world at your own pace or you can open it up to play with friends!

Overall I would recommend the game because it looks great and I enjoyed playing but I still think it needs things... more bugs for one. I know there's different parts to the maps where you'll encounter new bugs but man, fighting the same water bugs or sawyer bugs in the beginning is really annoying. I also wish there was a better way to get to your encampments such as a fast travel. There's just a few things I wish the game had to make QOL better. I need a way to revive my bugs that die... Winnie the Wasp caused Jellyfish the Nocturnal Ladybug and Sawyer the Sawyer beetle die because she had to attack a spider and bullfrog.

I like that I can play alone doing "quests" as well as I can play with other online players. Graphics are great in my opinion. It holds my attention and I look forward to playing it.

i really love this game, from the begining its so simple, fun & challenging until the early access was over. now the QoL became unreasonable tbh. from create something instant but now you should wait and pick it up over and over again, it make me furious.

Great game so far. People compare it to grounded but it's completely different. The only similarity is that you're tiny. This game is way better then grounded. The only thing I would complain about is that it claims to have full controller support but YOU CANT REMAP THE TRIGGERS OR MAP ANY OF THE HOT KEYS TO THE D-PAD. Please get this added ASAP. I seen a video from a year ago on youtube where someone else also couldn't map these.

Game has the ability to be great, but there are a LOT of bugs (And not the kind you can tame!) Even with Friendly fire turned off, you can, and WILL, destroy your own base during raids. AND your tames! I get the game released in Feb of 2024 (about a year ago now,) and yet nothing has been done? This is poor development! Even with friendly fire off, I'm killing my tames while I try to protect my base. That is not okay with me. Overall, the game is good, but this is an issue that almost makes the game unplayable for me. The ONLY times bugs do not take damage, is when they are partied with you. When you're hatching eggs, your tames will nuke your base while 'defending' it, if they chase something over to where you're nesting. I had 2 tames on a game that I was using as "pack animals", (Sawyer beetles are GREAT early game tames) and I didn't even get a notice that my tames were killed. EVERYTHING on them vanished, as did they. One second they were in my party, the next moment, dusted faster than a Thanos snap. I'd wait till they fix the glaring issues in the game. Sorry Merge Games. Fix the friendly fire issue, and the fact you kill your bugs while not in a party, and then we'll talk.
