Nice game, gradually improving.
This game has been fun and atmospherically pleasing to me, but since the recent update I can't stand it. The new navigation control responds to clicks instantly, making it frustrating to just look around the map and compare islands. Maybe this is okay with a mouse, but not on a touchscreen. The new trade menu is efficient, but I liked seeing the item artwork and considering trades visually. It should be switchable.
Edit 1: Thank you for the prompt response. I haven't uninstalled, and look forward to a future update that strikes the right balance on controls and display!
Edit 2: Thank you, the map controls are much better now. I like being able to control the zoom. Still not sold on the trade screen, but it's playable again 👍

Enjoyable game - recent update is mixed
Game is overall a lot of fun. Recent update improved the trade screen, which makes resource movements better. But also now has challenges with navigation when I just want to view what’s in a town. And holding on the screen to try to click the right place to see in the town now also carries the risk your ship is just going to start moving and waste your fuel, which is a limited resource. There’s no option to turn off this “improved” navigation feature. Very frustrating

Life has little treasures and this is one of em. Literally shed a tear of joy when I beat the game.

Developers Quick to Respond
Just bought the game, it won’t run at all.
Edit: The game has been updated and corrected. I will update when I play more

Cute game
The crashing issue is fixed, its running pretty smoothly now.
Its a nice trading game with some quirky characters. I enjoy the route automation and economy building. Quick turnaround on a fix when the game was crashing for me.

No tutorial???
So now the game works, but there are NO INSTRUCTIONS. I looked at a YouTube video, and even they couldn’t figure it out! If your game is NOT READY, do not launch it!

App won’t open
Update. Still does not work even after the second update. I would contact them directly but I cannot find out how
★★★★★negativemimosa丿 · 2026-05-19 · v1.5.9
I’m extremely disappointed
I have emailed to report the problem many times. It has been a full week since I bought this game, and I have never been able to launch and play it successfully. Every time I get a reply from the developer saying the issue has been fixed, yet I still cannot open the game normally up to now
★★★★★negativeJollie$tRoger · 2026-05-19 · v1.5.8
Game will not launch
Bought the game and installed it and haven’t been able to launch it yet. Goes straight to a grey screen and then closes. Uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times with no success.
★★★★★positiveNotaek253 · 2026-05-17 · v1.5.8
Still supporting
As I’ve played the game before on pc I know it’s good, but that crashing issue is still not resolved. It immediately crashes. I’ve tried everything.

Game is super fun! But current save bug exists
I saw another review that talked about a game save being lost. I just wanted to share my experience that I played a few hours today and tbh I was a bit lost on what to do but still found my way. Turns out, the game never triggered me talking to anyone but the first guy. I didn’t even have the main quest on my screen the whole first session I played. I imagine, like you said in another post, that the tutorial flag never turned off. So I don’t think it has anything to do with the connection to icloud, I think it’s because of that issue of the main story never progressing forward after talking to the first character in the beginning.

Good game - active and rapid dev support!
Fun game. Just like PC version.

Worth it
Scratched my mount and blade economy itch. I have not experienced any bugs that others have mentioned.

Needs More Polish
Very fun game, definitely something to spend a day on, but very short and a little unfocused.
Devs seem to be actively working on it. I would definitely say some features seem a little undercooked.
This game would benefit from a greater focus on the economy and trade systems, and scrapping some of the leveling systems. The knowledge system seemed kind of pointless. Lots of ship types with little difference except storage capacity. Didn’t see a point in buying the mid level ships since money is fairly simple to come by.
Really glad there are no microtransactions.
Tons of potential, just needs more depth.
★★★★★positiveEricSteep · 2026-04-21 · v1.03
Cozy fun
I never played the PC version, but the mobile version is such an enjoyable experience. Sound and visuals are pleasant. Mechanics are tight. There’s an air of “I have no idea what I’m doing”, but it’s not a negative. It feels like you’re gifted a world to explore and trade in, figuring out your own way.
Cozy. That’s the best way to explain it.
★★★★★negativeTheMule66 · 2026-04-15 · v1.0
Unpolished, needs serious work
There is basically no tutorial, and the UI is awful even in the beginning trying to figure out what to do. 60 minutes in and finally in a groove, pause to eat dinner, only to reopen the app and be back at the tutorial. All progress lost, apparently there’s no autosave. Do not recommend.
