What Makes Living Wild: Island Survival Stand Out
You're stranded all alone on this deserted island with very few supplies. Build and maintain your fire. Collect, filter, and boil your water. Gather, hunt, and cook your food. Craft a shelter and tools to aid in your survival. Make medicine using only what you have around you to treat any and all injuries ranging from sand flea bites to deadly snake bites and major infections. Try to keep your morale high as you travel the island in search of vital supplies—which will be the only thing keeping you alive! How long can you survive: Living Wild?
Put your survival skills to the test with this unique immersive deserted island roleplay game; where any situation can turn deadly. Spend your days and nights fending off hunger with a rich variety of food items, crafting your way to a stable shelter, mixing up various plants and supplies to treat your wounds—and prevent them from getting worse—all the while trying to keep your spirits high. How long will the next lightning storm last? What if your simple stomach ache turns into severe food poisoning? What will you do if you have to choose between keeping your hard-scavenged supplies or dropping them all to make it back to camp in time to treat an alarming medical condition? Would you drink unfiltered water or eat raw meat? What would you do to survive?

Community Insight:
We cant get over this. The day we are writing this review is December 15. Its almost Christmas and we have asked for gift cards, and the first thing we willl do with them is buy the full version of this game. We have deleted this game so many times to just install it again. Its so fun and is very different from other survival games.There is nothing about it that we dont like(almost!) The one thing we dont like is that you cant make clothing. Idk if you think it would be useless but we guess it could protect from various injuries.Just saying. We also dont reeeeeeeallllllly think the full version is nessarcry, but it fine. Thanks for reading our review and we hope to get gift cards for Christmas.
We love how cartoonish the game is while still having that bit of gritty vibe. It is far better than many other low budget survival games, but through a few it could be majorly improved.
All these reviews from yearssss ago are still relevant like literally the same after 10 day bug, no new updates, no skippable time etc but a price increase that we feel played by bc it seems to be the exact same game.
We paid for the full version and made it to day 20. It will not let us sleep or it freezes.
We played the trial version & we love the game, but we dont feel like its worth $3.99. Maybe if the developers could add more to it, itd be a great buy, but for now Ill keep checking back for more updates.
Save your money on this one! We love the baker business 3 game by the same people, but this one isnt worth $3.99 for the full version! Its glitchy and doesnt havent enough substance to it.
We paid. If we could actually have any success it would be great but u hardly get the stuff to build a shelter before dying. This game needs improvement to be satisfying. We played 16 games, only made it to the 6th day once and only built a shelter twice. If yall just fix some of the game play it would be such a slay.
The longest Ive survived is three days.
We really liked this game and we were happy to pay the $3.99 but about 10-15 days into our game it glitches and wouldnt let us sleep and recover energy which is a required function of the game. It became unplayable. We tried to delete it and re-download but the bug repeated about 10-15 days in. Sad. Should be an easy fix for them though.
Beware. This game masquerades as free but itll only let you play the first night free then youll have to pay to unlock the rest.
We like the game. It was fun for like 3 days of survival but now its just routine and we feel like its not worth 3.99 its worth .99 we paid for the 3.99 just to get stuck waiting for supplies to upgrade our shelter, theres no way to look for these specific items yourself and its annoying. It doesnt progress any father then a few steps. And not worth the buy. Tip: do not pay for it. Just play for free. Ok Im trying to play it (because we paid for it) and it keeps freezing up. We deleted our old one to try to get further and it freezes up after counting the score (which we wish could be skipped) and it then its endless night and the only way to fix it is to delete the whole game and start over (which is what happens when you play the free version). Again do not pay for it.
There should be more options than what are offered. (Crafting, clothing, shoes etc.) Not worth the price we just paid for it, but the game has potential with some updates! Ive been playing this game for a while now, and today we come back and all the progress is lost, all the supplies and food stored is gone. Very Disappointing game, needs some major work. Also the option to save should be there so all the progress isnt lost after death.
We keep dying in very little time.
