One of the best

This is really an awesome game. It works for the touch screen amazingly well. If you have a smaller screen I'd say it's the best choice out of the whole MC/ Terraria/ Junk Jack debate. This one was made for mobile though so it's understandable why it feels so fluid. I own them all and I can attest. It's great for people with fat fingers lol. It has fantastic pixel art, it's fun, and it's difficult at times when un prepared. As a long time player (played since the original jj and back when this one was called Junk Jack x) I highly suggest this game to anyone who likes crafting/survival/building/exploration/pixel art games. This is a great additive to the genre. It's held a permanent spot on my phone for a while now. Get it, you won't regret it!

Multiplayer

Love the game, played it for years, do not have many complaints at all. But the biggest thing to me right now is that the multiplayer experience is very limited now because there aren’t enough people playing now that it’s died down to do the Random matchmaking, I personally would love to see a list of who’s hosting that way I don’t have to chance it by waiting for 30+ minutes in the matchmaking hoping someone decides to host while I’m joining. also that way you could keep it open and play. I personally would really enjoy that, please consider something along the lines of this, thank you :)

It’s still a very nice came, but

Unfortunately, with a recent update, everything was reset, that’s fine, I didn’t play for a long time anyways, my main problem is that the hats, etc. seem to be gone. I personally paid a lot for these, so it’s sad to see them gone. If they do actually exist, do let me know. The new content seems interesting, so if you are a new player, please consider this game. It’s very fun.
EDIT: Nevermind! It seems that you have to create a world first before you can access the menu to restore your purchases and redeem your iAPs!
