Wrecked XL – Travel Game Review
![]()
Wrecked XL is a Travel/Simulation/Adventure game from MDickie Limited, first launched in 5th March 2017.
It’s rated 17+ and currently has 119+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Wrecked XL Stand Out
See how long you can survive on an island full of wildlife – and even wilder people! Compete for resources with a new 2-handed control system that doubles the ways you can interact with the world around you – putting the power to create or destroy in your own hands. Explore the island's 10 unique locations long enough to solve the mystery of why you're there – and what lies on the other side of the ocean…
While the game is mostly free to play, you can upgrade to "1st Class" to save your changes to your character and every other. This also removes ads and increases your chances of surviving death to ensure you live your life to the fullest!
HOW TO PLAY
Players of previous games may need to take the time to adjust to the new control system, which distinguishes between the left or right hands:
-
The RED fist buttons allow you to ATTACK from either side.
-
The BLUE hand buttons allow you to PICK-UP or DROP with either hand (hold a direction to THROW).
-
Pressing BOTH buttons on either SIDE will attempt to USE what is in that hand – such as eating food or reading books (notice that some actions may cause you to swap hands to use them properly).
-
Pressing BOTH pick-up buttons together will COMBINE the objects you have in each hand or nearby on the ground. Both hands can also be used to pick up larger furniture – such as rafts – so long as they are empty and there is nothing closer to handle.
-
Pressing BOTH attack buttons together will attempt to GRAB your opponent (press again to release or any other combination of buttons to execute moves).
-
DOUBLE-TAP any direction to RUN.
-
Touch the HEALTH METER to SLEEP when your energy is low.
-
Touch the CLOCK to PAUSE – where you can exit or access other options.
I regret that there's more to this game than could ever be explained here, so please look out for additional hints in the game itself – or join the discussion on social media:

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Love this game. Its really good, but the controls are off and confusing. The controls in the other games are better in our opinion.
Honestly wrecked is a good game but theres just one slight problem. When you have a kid, you get introduced by the kid but it freezes and its a whole error.
The stars show that you dont know the letters in that sentence for example if you are a native then you wont understand most of the sentence an English speaking person is saying and vice versa.
The person who said how do we eat this is for you you grab something to eat and press the blue and button on the side the end press the red hand button at the same side at the end to thats how you eat (:.
This game is actually fun but the buttons are not like the other games. You cant even eat. Bu5 maybe you can and we dont know how to. But please tell us how to eat.
We love all of MDDickies games. This game is really fun, but we hate when the animals or people attack us for nothing. We could just be walking around and they attack us and kill us, and we die. Its very annoying but other than that the game is fun.
We love Mat Dickies games but on WRECKED tigers are so annoying, we were playing normally and there was a tiger that came out of nowhere started spam attacking us, and when we finally get up the tiger does SPAM attack, Anyways we love your games but thats the only complain.
This game is great tbh, but all we want to say is we think you should make a wild western theme game with different controls and 3D, other than that your one of our favourite game developers.
Needs the ability to edit understanding of native language.
Its a really fun and addicting game.
That game crashed at the ad we're going to next 3rd level.
This game is great and we think most people should have it keep it up and keep doing what your doing wonder if there will be another game but we hope it's good like this game a warfare one sounds good but there is that game that is like marvel but like we said Really good game keep it up.
It is fun but nag os hype as extra lives.
Fix the friggin' writing on here it has stars all in the sentence,we're sorry but we're not redownliading this game until we see that you've fixed that.
After we play for so long, we get ganged up on our others, they knock us down, our character won't get back up, and we die. Kinda pointless if we can't fight back.
We have to say that MDickie really has impressed us with his games outside of wrestling. When playing Wrecked we were really impressed with everything that he has added to this game, but the two-handed controls were a little tricky for us. In due time we got use to it, but was yearning for single hand control. Well our prayers have been answered as MDickie now has added the single hand control which is also used in his previous games like Wrestling Revolution, Hard Time and a School Days. We really love all of his games and in all honesty outside of Wrestling Revolution, School Days is our favorite with Extra Lives following behind. But dont rule out Wrecked for it offers nice little package of crafting materials and trying to survive.
Can your next game be a zombie survival game cheers.
Hi why you don't make a new game and name it life days XL and you make a big city whit hospital and prison and put the map of school days and map of super city XL the game will be amazing please read this review.
This is a major step up from the past games.
It great, just great. We've been expecting something spectacular from such amazing producer like Mat Dickie , but we have suggestion that could make the game more fun!! Could you please make the story longer or make a 3D version of it ! That would be incredible ! And one final thing!!! Do NOT add an online option ,it would be a chaos.
This game was a great game to be honest. Really expected an actual survival game which this is the best. To us personally this would be better offline and an online or make a different game which carries online features like gta online or any other game. Make an open world for all we know make it like the legend of zelda breath of the wild. Just make a game with survival and an actual custom character with no pass, we havent bought any of the passes but it really annoys us to play with out our own custom character so plaese make a game with custom character customization with no pass.
It's a very fun game but there is a huge problem with lag, maybe it's our device but everything freezes or even crashes. Aside from that it's a very fun game.
Can't play it lags or freezes game so we can't play please fix this it is ridiculous we spent five bucks on this so please fix.
Hi Mdickie. We are a big fan of your games and we think this one is the best. But one suggestion is to not make your hunger bar go low so quickly. We have said this a lot in your reviews, and we know you get this a lot, but our second suggestion is to please add online. This game would be even better. Big fan and keep up the good work.
Havent opened it yet but already feel its AWESOME.
U should add powers and more weapons for instance if u are a native they could have powers. And there needs to be ranks.
L want to be able to pick a character that is apart of a tribe.
Our game crashes every time manchild talks to us. We're in the native tribe and we think he's trying to give us a quest.
Every time a McDickie game comes out we get very excited because their games are very fun to play. This is the game that we were hoping McDickie would make some day and they did so we are very happy.
Hi mat we loved the game we love all your games But we want to now the next game and when it will come out will you make hard time in 3D. And can you make the you testament next on ipad iPhone and android.
This game is just very fun and balanced unlike the other games, hard time and wrestling revolution always has you getting teamed up on or just an unfair way of getting killed, so this game is a 5/5 and we recommended this game.
We're happy to be the first review. This review is the day it got released. We have not played it yet so we're about to. We love MDickie games. Thanks.
How do you ride wolfs and tigers and deers? We can only ride horses.
Good game, but has lots of problems. The buttons are different. It's lags so much, and it's super slow. Please fix. We know the game came out today, but you guys make great games, so we're looking forward to this.
Bruh Dis is a FRICKING fun game only wish if their was a toutorial.
This is one our the best survival game ever, if your our type, Then you'll love this game. We always wanted a survival sim, now we can, and we can play it free.
Decent game, Mdickie impresses as usual. New island complex provides new experience, while integrating the old hard time/school days world as home. 3.5 stars, as -there is little challenge or direction in this game, escaping is as simple as making a raft and traversing two panels of water. -the new double hand control, while innovative, is highly confusing and frustrating at times, one cannot tell which hand is which.
This is a good game, but it's super slow. We'll be playing it, and the entire game freezes. No other MDickie game does this. It has even lagged out. Please fix this so we can have a more enjoyable experience.
The Man, The Myth, The Legend, Mat Dickie, is finally back boys, girls, and (insert gender here).
