Stranded Sails

Great game but so many stinking glitches!

I love this game but it has so many glitches! Currently the glitch is when I try to get in the ancestors canoe. My boat just stops moving and I lose all the controls. I have to restart and it’s not worth it anymore. You guys have such bad reviews because you never fix all these glitches. Even if you do most people have given up on the game by the time you fix it. If you could fix these glitches more often myself and many others would be able to enjoy this game.

Sail away

I found the game a relaxing game, I’m glad it isn’t so 3d it makes me sick. There are a few places you can get stuck glitch wise. These usually clear up by restarting the app. This is not a major deal as you don’t lose anything. I was rowing over to the 4th island and I accidentally rowed into the broken ship there. You can’t row out or walk out or get washed out. Since I want to continue I have to wait for my energy to deplete and so I’ll get transported back. I’m playing a second time to find all the scrolls. For the most part an excellent adventure on a deserted island

Fun little game with a lot of promise.

But. So many annoying glitches that Im just going to stop playing. The Leave button on crafting stations doesn’t work. The only way out is to up swipe the game and then go back in from Continue. Most of the time whatever I just made the game doesn’t recognize as having been made. And a fair amount of the time that means a quest won’t progress until I go back into the glitched crafting table. I appreciate your work. Just wish the game was functional.

I wanted to like this…

This seemed really interesting but there were too many glitches. When I tried to load a saved game on a different device I found myself stuck walking in the middle of the ocean. Every time. And when I play on my original device every time I have to close the app for even a second, when I go back in I’ve lost 10-15 minutes of progress. I have contacted support multiple times and received no response.

Okay but…

It is really glitchy and it is so hard to do some things, like some times I’m trying to complete a task and when I try to go back to a place it takes me some where else! Then I have no control on the game! It is SO annoying, please just fix it! I am not playing again until the glitches are fixed so there.😤and I’ll sit here waiting, till you fix it.🥱 well that is boring so 😴 how about you get on the job all ready?🕔 NOW!

Has Potential

this game would honestly be a really good one, if it didn’t have so many glitches and bugs. When trying to do missions, upon further completing them they’ll reset until you swipe out of the app and reload the saved game, but sometimes that doesn’t even work. hopefully some update comes out fixing these things, i seem to not be the only one but it’s sad they haven’t already made these changes.

Would be higher

I like this game but some things annoy me like the recipes, why do I need to not only guess the recipes but guess where each individual ingredient goes it takes up so much time and it’s not fun, the more ingredients we discover the more possibilities for each combination which means the more time trying to find a recipes instead of playing, I get so annoyed I just exit the game which is not good. Fix it please

A lot of glitches

This game is super fun but I’ve been running into a lot of glitches. For starters im on a mission that requires wood; to build the bridges on the different islands, i seem to have ran out of wood, the trees are gone once you cut them down. I just feel like the trees should regenerate after every sleep in the game, i cant proceed in the game unless i have wood. So if they don't fix that i will be deleting this app.

I give up.

This is a sweet game, but it’s literally unplayable. And seeing the exact same problems in reviews written years ago- one gets the impression no one gave a crap about this port. It feels abandoned. Which is quite a disappointment as I was just starting to really have fun. But you can only push so far before dumping a game that isn’t functional… An experience I seem to be having with most NEW games I get off Apple Arcade these days. Bugs bugs bugs bummer. That said, it looks way better on different platforms— so if you have another way to play and like cozy adventures I’d still probably recommend it. -

Not great, probably targeted for very young children

Lacks the ability to really act freely. Nothing to do except follow NPC guided missions which are VERY basic (basically go east and find three very obvious things and come back). NPC have too much dialogue wont shut up. VERY optimistic story for a shipwreck survival game. Do you need something to keep your 5 year old busy for a few hours? You found it! Looking for an open world (ish) survival game? Sorry but keep looking.
