Survivors: The Quest® for Android
If I wanted to play bejeweled or candy crush i wud have installed those. I wanted a survival game not a puzzle.othr thn tht good graphics. At least add other type of puzzles or an option to select the type of puzzles u want
Very fun, but not quite as casual as I would like. I love match 3 games and I consider myself to be decent at them, but these are very challenging. Very short timers, a lot of failures, no margin for error at all. Not sure how possible it is to advance in this game without real money purchases. Still fun though.
Started out enjoying this match-3 game where progress is dependent on successful item finds and puzzle completion. But it didn't take long to get really frustrated at how little time is given to complete each puzzle "round". Wrote to support and got a non-response. So tired of not getting answers from customer no-support. Would have liked to see where this went. Uninstalled. I don't need this kind of frustration. Follow-up - Got another customer non-service response. They think that if they "explain", everything is okay, and they don't need to do anything. My rating on this went to straight ones. Wish I could make it even lower.
No!! I like the game.. then I finished a part ( getting the guitar strings and strung the guitar ) then quit for the night. Came back and had to do it again!! I was mad ,but I did it again ,then quit for a while again. Came back and was back at that same spot AGAIN!! I want my progress!! I spent gems to get there too and I want them back too! UPDATE. :. Never got any reply from anyone on this issue. Got past it myself by doing it again that was my 3rd time ). I need to uninstall because I am tempted to buy moves with cash and I won't do that. Make the game just a little easier and I think people will love it
Reminds me of LOST. It's fun to be able to control different characters at the same time. I find the matching mini-games too difficult after level five. It would be nice if you had a choice of an untimed puzzle.
I really like this game except the puzzle that you must play in order to get through certain doors/passageways. They are extremely too difficult for the amount of time given. Also, I think you should only have to play 1 round instead of 3. This is my only complaint so far.
Great game! 2 slight inconveniences: 1) the controls in the mini game are weird compared to other games i've played of the type. I'm usually veey good at those kinds of games but any time i try to swipe to match, it doesnt go where I need it to. 2)if there was a way to make food collection automatic for a while, i would definitely love it more :) its obnoxious having to click on the trees twenty one times if I want all three characters to get as full as possible. Other than those, great game! Much more fun than others of its kind :)
SO MAD. GOT TO THE NEXT PATH BY REMOVING THE TREES AND MY GAME STOPPED. I REOPENED AND HAD TO START ALL OVER AGAIN! I EVEN BOUGHT GEMS WITH REAL MONEY AND SPENT SO MANY TO PROCEED. NOT HAPPY. NOT PLAYING UNLESS YOU FIX!!!!!
UNINSTALL ~ You have to pay for gems. Cost of gems is crazy. I don't mind a reasonable expense, but this is crazy expensive. I like the story puzzle aspect, but the timed match 3 is very annoying and can only be done with paying for gems to buy boosts.
Could be better if you can actually take your inventory from one area to the next so you don't have to scavenge everything all over again from Square One. Also doesn't help when you maximize your inventory to 75 items switch to another area and go back to 25 doesn't make any damn sense. I mean come on now seriously if I had tools I would bring them with me wherever I went. Is being Army Combat veteran with over 18 years in service, if I have useful gear, items or equipment especially food, I'm going to ensure that nothing happens to it.
First off, it's not a survival game. Showers, food, bed and shelters are provided for you, you just have to collect the resources. Essentially just another tap & match three game. Finally unlike other app games i've played, theres no real way to consista tly earn gems through playing. And the gem prices are steep for what they are. Expect to spend money if you want to get a ywhere in this. Honestly while the game is beautoful, it's not the same as it's advert implies. There are better games out there, tbh.
I like the concept. I like the art. I like the Quests. I really enjoyed figuring out which branches were the ones I needed to collect. I did not like the insanely frequent match 3 game at all. This generally starts off well, but after 50 attempts to "fix the radio" via a match 3 game, I knew this game wasn't for me. If you like developing your characters in a RPG/Strategy game more than Candy Crush, you may want to skip this one.
I like it well enough, though I doubt I play all the way through. It is kind of monotonous and I hate wait times. Positive though, I don't feel the need to put money into the game to play it. Although, the puzzles can be challenging and you may want the help they offer.
Like so many others I find it hard to give 5 stars. The game itself is excellent. Well thought out, good story and graphics. The only downside is the large amount of, difficult to win, match 3 side games. I accept the fact that the game is free and gem purchase is completely optional, but maybe the developers might consider an update that will offer a one-off purchase of the game that incorporates a mini game skip feature.
Was much much much better without the new match 3 feature. Hate that now. The levels are way too difficult, obviously made to make you spend money buying crystals. Very disappointed as I love the game.
Very fun and addictive. But the fact you have to rely on purchasing crystals to help you beat the puzzles for more time kills it for me. After the first purchase of 5 dollars, I'm over it. Maybe I haven't found a way to help replenish without purchases. But as far as I know, I'm done with the game. Thanks but no thanks. Still 4 stars.
Really a good idea but the match 3 games are virtually impossible to finish without a boost because they are timed. Also the boosts cost money. I really enjoyed the story quest part but if you can't finish the dumb match 3 games you can't move on in the story so it's useless to play unless you pay. Or you can be a super fast match 3 gamer. So disappointed. The game has so much potential. I had first given this game a 5 star but once the boosts ran out it has become unplayable. Sorry I have to uninstall because I really liked it.
Fun and relaxing,however, I agree with others. It is too much to get through the match games to complete quests. I spent money to complete and cannot do this on a continual basis. Either change the match games or make it possible to earn crystals or time extentions. Really don't want to delete !!! Update:love this game,however the match part is virtually impossible to pass without crystals.....change this !!! Give us a way to earn them or swap with materials. Had to delete.
I liked it but I agree with the others on the puzzles.. Take the pointless puzzles out and you'll have yourself a good game.. I actually don't see the point of doing 3 puzzles just to fill a water bottle, I mean seriously? Why did you implicate puzzles into every task? I could maybe see doing a puzzle to unlock certain doors.. Eh no thanks! If you enjoy getting pissed off, playing bejeweled in a survival game, and loosing complete interest in a pretty good game, then download this Lol as for me I'm uninstalling..
I agree with many other players. The game is well done, except for the timed puzzles. Any artificial timers in a game immediately turns me off. My suggestion to the developer is to have a one-time affordable purchase to eliminate the puzzler timer. I could see myself spending $10 or so for that. Otherwise, I'm afraid this game is being regretfully deleted.
Done DONE... 5 puzzles to get solar panels to work to hell with this all relaxing and enjoyment is gone!!! Was enjoying this game but the puzzles are getting to hard to enjoy then after you findly have it beat after days sometime longer if you have a working life. The damn game doesn't save your progress it has done it to me three times. I am done with it shame but seems to be a money grab to buy gems seeing as they don't give them out often but ask for them alot.
Starts off quite nice but quickly gets tedious. Every task requires puzzle solving, which would be fine if the time frame did not soon become impossible. Five levels in a row, huge puzzles and a two minute limit. Impossible to do without boosters, which means spending serious money at some point. And I'm only at the second level. Sorry, folks you're not getting one penny from me. Shame. Game has real potential.
OK. I liked the thought of it. But is a pay to win game. 2 or less minutes to solve a massive puzzle and there are three or more times you have to play to do a simple task. I liked the puzzles but the time frame isn't enough. It's anything but relaxing. I've more tense then when I left work. Gems are needed to expand puzzle time, to get hints, to speed up things.
Fun game, but having the song of the same Gem puzzles over and over again are a little Annoying. They should make different types of puzzles. Eventually you have to buy diamonds as the puzzles get harder and harder.
The game itself is fun..... it's not boring as you're always completing tasks on the island..and there's A LOT to do. The only reason I gave a 3 star rating however, is in order to complete certain tasks, you have to win at 'Bejeweled' type games. The further progress on the island you make, the more jewel games in a row you have to complete. For instance, in order to light the campfire, you have to beat the jewel game 3 times. This isn't a hard task...the problem is the small amount of time the game gives to do it. Diamonds is the only thing you have as a way to buy more time or eliminate jewels. Once you run out of diamonds though you have to actually purchase more....and you're going to be purchasing diamonds for every task. It would make more sense to buy a premium version and have unlimited time rather than spend a fortune....and I will uninstall it before I do that.
Like other people said the jewel mini game becomes extremely challenging to beat without spending real money to get past it. It also doesn't really fit with the rest of the gameplay. It seems like it was only added to get you to spend money on the game. The rest of the game was really fun, I enjoyed looking for clues and solving the mysteries of the island.
Your plane crashes and the third thing you need to do is have a shower so that your hygiene level can be good. And you have a working sink. I can't even summon the words for how absolutely moronic that is.
I'm approaching 48 hours after installation and I've revised my view of this game. It looks good and is smooth to play, but the "match 3" element of the game is ridiculously hard. I've played match 3 games for ages and I appreciate it needs to be a challenge, but the amount of time it takes to pass the 3 levels each time you need to complete a task within the game is beyond reasonable. I've got bored with it and will be uninstalling the game, which is a shame as this issue spoilt a really well presented game.
Challenging It makes you think and work for the different items you need for survival. It's definitely different than other survival games I have played. This one is more challenging and keeps me trying to solve the next puzzle and gather items needed to fix things.
I had recently gave this app a 4.0 rating but I am now revising that as it is taking my wife and I two days Non-Stop to try and open the door to get the guitar strings. This is a impossible puzzle unless you spend lots of money. I love the storyline I love the game played but this puzzle stuff is for the birds. I'm only at level nine and it seems like if I was playing a different puzzle game the difficulty level wouldn't come on this strong until say level 100. I was willing to give it a chance I tried and tried and tried could not succeed so I deleted this game which is a shame because I really love the storyline and the activities that you had to complete!
Well the gameplay is alright. It's easy to pick up and it's controls are better than some games. What I mean by this is that you won't accidentally burn diamonds on the map even if characters are close together. My biggest issue in the game is jewel puzzle. The developers don't diversify their puzzles and it's the only puzzle you have to go through. Also, the puzzle becomes ridiculously difficult over time to a point that it's impossible to complete unless you burn diamonds for extra time. This is the first time where I have to uninstall early for those 'daily login' games. The game looks promising but the jewel puzzles cut the game short too early.
Not even two minutes after opening the game they are taking about buying things with the night currency. I also don't like how often this thing gives you constant notifications. Just writing this review I got three notifications from this game to come play again The only good thing here are the graphics. This games just a money grab
Will give 5 stars if they add more time (5-10 mins) each of the match games. Bit annoying at times it gives you only 1 min. to try and finish. It's possible but frustrating cause you have to try for more than 5 times if no success. Need a confirmation button for the diamonds. It's a cheat...its so close to your tasks.
Why are the puzzles so difficult right away? Why have us solve three of them and only give us two lives? I hear it's eventually five puzzles to unlock areas. So these get harder? Maybe I just really suck at these kind of puzzles. Still can't get the shower going after eight hours of attempts.
The timed match 3 boards are the game killer. Everything else is fun. But I refuse to buy my way through the puzzles. Uninstalling for this reason alone
I guess I must have been one of the beta players ages ago, so imma little jaded because I really liked the original storyline better. The characters seemed to work better with each other AND Tilly was our tech expert. Now it seems like the only one who actually knows what to do is John and that's pretty annoying. On a plus, I like that we dont have to wait ages for each activity to run its course like the original. Now we can play jewel crush games to finish projects which is cool. Graphics are still awesome, as usual. We'll see how the rest of it goes.
The bullcrap jewel game gets so difficult it forces you to use diamonds that cost real money. Forget that - deleted. It was a good game until you can't get past the jewel mini game. Not worth your time.
Absolutely love this game. However, three days ago, Tilly froze up. I cant move her anywhere. The match 3 game I am stuck on needs her to do it. I can click her to do the game, but she is hungry, so it does me no good. I have uninstalled & reinstalled 3 times & nothing. I really want to get back to my game & finish it. How do I fix Tilly?
Frustrated!! Game seems very good and enjoyable, however, the match 3 games are too much! Very little time given to complete the challenge and some are very difficult. Not only do you have to play 1 but 3 (!!) In order to progress. It is nearly impossible to play this game without purchases of extra crystals which is such a disappointment! Really liked the game up until it all became too frustrating to play on!

It totally blows that my stats reduce when I'm NOT PLAYING THE GAME. If I play the game in my free time one night, exit out, and then pick up my game again the same time the next night, all my stats are lowered. That's just stupid. Was a fun game, but I'm not going to continue that.
