Love the game but wish it adds multiplayers

I wish the game can add multiplayer on this app too, it will be lots of fun

What I think should be in the game🤗

Games amazing love the characters designs advantages everything, but this one thing I was very concerned why iOS doesn’t have multiplayer why does iOS does not have multiplayer that’s what gets me concerned and I think enjoy the game a little more if we can play with other people like how are you gonna survive in a big world by yourself or you just like to play by yourself in general I’m not judging anybody for that so I think we should have multiplayer and stuff that’s all I to say about don’t

I like it BUT PLS FIX THIS

I love playing this game while watching jakeyosuarus for tips but OMG IS THIS LAGGY AND NOT WHEN I NEED IT AT ALL. RIGHT AS IM BOUTA SAVE, IT LAGS, THEN KICKS ME OUT AND I HAVE TO RESET THE DAY

Please

As an update, I feel like there should be an option to use a button to change camera perspective and sometimes when I am using my fingers, I can’t change perspective

Needs an update

On a new iPad Air (m2), I get “unsupported device detected” and the game is put in “compatibility mode” for older devices… it works, but it looks like it is using low res textures. Hopefully this game hasn't been abandoned by the developer.

I am addicted.

I love this game soo much! It’s fantastic! …for some reason, after killing one hound, I kept hitting it even though another one was attacking me… …anyways, I was first introduced to DST and eventually got this because I was away from home, and, as I said earlier, I am addicted. Thus, I find it interesting to notice the similarities and differences between the two. Thank you Klei!!!!!!

Darkness creates walls

Woke up today hopped on and was swarmed by darkness I had created a clear path to my flame and yet the darkness acted as a wall sealing my characters fate frustrating but I guess back to square one remember to build more than one light source and torches

Current Bugs

This game is awesome and I love it to bits but there are bugs in world generation like dragonfly not spawning and certain giants never appearing (was playing on no sweat) I only found this out after playing 90 days already and it really bummed me out Please fix the world generation errors as they’re very annoying and taxing for people who wanna experience all the game has to offer!! (Especially for noobs like me who just wanna go casual)

Love it.

So I downloaded the game because I saw the crossover between terraria (another game) and don’t starve. I decided to see what this game was. When I got into the world I loved the game! I do stink at it but I’ll get better.( I hope). I think don’t starve pocket edition + lets you use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse for controls. Like the pc controls. The game is really fun and engages you. Accept I don’t know how to use the science machine. I rated it 4/5 because I want the developer, Klei, to add

Grate game

Would recommend game very fun good story fun experience would play again.

更新

好游戏,就是不更新,能联机就无敌了

Bussin bussin game

Brooooooo! Buy dis! This is the most bussin bussin game ever!

Muy bien echo pero muy mal optimizado

Tienen muchos fallos con el pad analógico que no se superponen a las acciones de interactuar con o lo que está debajo muchas veces pierdo por querer moverme y no poder porqué se superpone el pad analógico a alguna otra acción y el pad no tiene prioridad al parecer.

希望和电脑端同步更新

手柄操作打开地图要用组合键不方便,手柄还有空余键位没利用上。打开地图希望和steam上手柄一样操作方式更好。

Nice, but…

I really want to be able to purchase characters with money, you know, like other games, but still, great!

Updates aren’t equal to DST

Fun, but the game isn’t even close to being similar to DST in any way. Lots of features and updates missing. Just buy DST, you can play with your friends on it.

Is He Unlockable?

It’s a good game but I have a question is Webber unlockble I got this game only for Webber

THE MOST AMAZING GAME EVER

The best game ever it is hard but I’ve played it for years it is amazing everyone should get it

Why

I was thinking of downloading this game! Because it seemed great and all but since I’m on mobile I can’t do multiplayer! The whole reason why I wanted to download this game was to play with friends but we can’t do that!!!

To GOOD!

Its very good gameplay is perfect thank you for making this game like it

Where is Hamlet

I love I just love everything but where is hamlet?

Awesome game with SO many layers

I feel like I just keep learning more and more new things and I’ve been playing for years. I agree with many others reviews that it would be SO much better if you could listen to your own music via Spotify etc while you were playing. Love the game play. I like playing at night before I go to bed since it chill enough and you control the game pacing for the most part. You do have to be paying attention most of the time when you play this one though due to random bosses, feeding your character etc

One of the best games

I don’t care if people say it’s glitchy or too hard, this game is and always will be one of if not the best games on mobile or computer

Bad update!

I’ve been playing for years! I play time over time when i feel bored to kill time. This time when i open, i noticed they added that moving buttom! It made the operating harder! I feel painful playing it now! PLEASE REVERSE THAT! I have this game on ios, on switch and pc. I played on ipad the most. But now I’ll have to consider give up this game after so many years, because of this unfavorable change!

Great but...

WHERE IS MULTIPLAYER?! WE DESPERATELY NEED MULTIPLAYER IN DON’T STARVE! YOU ARE NEGLECTING MOBILE PLAYERS BECAUSE THE WHOLE POINT OF DON’T STARVE ON COMPUTER WAS TO NOT STARVE TOGETHER! -A very annoyed female

Ideas

I love this game but could you make it multiplayer please? I would love it even more if you could plsssssss make it multiplayer, online multiplayer pls. If you do then thank you very much, other than that I think the game is perfect.

Excellent Mobile Version; A Bit Glitchy

The game is great, I’m a vet of DST Xbox, and I love the on the go version. The only critiques I have are the glitches & lag when tumbles are around, placing fences can be problematic - and I miss the customizable skins for crafted items & characters.

Would love to see Hamlet

I absolutely love Don’t Starve and Shipwrecked. I would love seeing Hamlet brought out in a mobile version.

One of my favorites

Endless possibilities, i come back to this game again and again

Pretty good port

Overall it's the same Don't Starve, but control is a bit awkward, please move virtual stick a bit, make map icon at the same place and increase map scroll sensitivity.

Overall great

Very fun overall, however I wish there was a multiplayer game mode. Please add it so it would be much more enjoyable!😄

Wish for multiplayer

I absolutely love the game but I want it to be more like don’t starve together cause I wish to play crossovers like mobile and pc players can play it together yet I still enjoy it.

TOO long

Ok klei if you see this review please respond because this is making me lose my IRL sanity because you are taking TOO long to make dont starve together and don’t starve hamlet so please please add both of these games to ios and other platforms.

So good but to good

Yep I got the flu and I was just about on the edge of my char

The game is amazing but…

Can you pleas give it more updates and bring the record button back

Great game

I personally think this game is a great game in all so it’s not a waist of money so consider buying it

I love this game

But l want to play with my bros, hope there update to the online one!!!!,

Great

Don’t Starve is a challenging game. If you think Minecraft Survival got too easy, then you should get this. It’s worth the $5.

Fun game!

I absolutely love Don’t Starve on mobile. It’s one of those games where you can play it for 10 minutes or 10 hours and still have a ton of fun.

Picture quality

I hope the picture quality can be compatible with iPad pro 2021. The picture quality is not very good. I hope it can be improved.

没BOSS!!!

刷不出BOSS了 跳天数也没有用了

good

非常新颖的沙盒游戏,非常值得去玩

Great game

Love the gameplay very cool kinda die quickly sometimes which makes me scared of the dark kinda😓

太牛了

太牛了太牛了太牛了太牛了

1 Negative User Reviews for Don't Starve: Pocket Edition

Has potential, controls are bad

I guess there’s only so much you can do with a touch device for game control but this is really left wanting. Try to attack spiders with the attack button… nope maybe my guy views the pine tree as a bigger threat, yup, ATTTAAAAAAACK the pine tree while spiders kill you. The attack button should attack, harvest/interact should only do that, etc. they don’t. You can also get stuck in an endless harvest loop. Too frustrating, considering you die very easily and must start over. Deleted.
