Community Insight:
We really wish that you could make it so animals cant attack each other you can make it so animals cant attack humans but they still attack each other please make it so you can put this law in your world.
Number one it has no ads it needs no Internet and when you kill 1000 elves in lava go to the law and click on that eyeball over and over until it gives you everything this game is so fun. We spent on it for hours and you shall buy it too, and then youll see why we made this review. Good best game ever we saw the fun thing is when you copy 1000s of people it can go on forever but until your game crashes, but its fun just download it and youll see all the fun you can do anything.
There is so much to explore and its really calm and relaxing. Its great also no ads or in app purchases that we know of.
We love the creativity and the sheer amount of creatures and traits. Definitely a good buy.
We Love this Game So Much, This is WorldBox that has a New Monolith Update From A Week Ago, So Thank You So Much that We Can Play Games, Everyone, Download And Play this Game Right Now, we Promise we Can Play this Game, But, we Only Play This Game Every New Updates, So So that is it, Play this Right Now, This Game is for Ages 3+, Go Play this Right Now, So Helpful, So Playful, So Peaceful, So Gamatic, So Appful, So Gaming Right Now, but it has a Problem, our Worldbox Got Crashed a few Times, Please Make a Net update Right Now.
We have been playing world box for like two years and it never gets old.
Its a great game though the fact that you need to pay a little bit of money for the full game is a little annoying it is still the best game Ive ever played.
Its hard to add mods, but still good.
Hey WorldBox could you make an physics and water and land and people and time and names update please.
Game will be better if you could possess the dragon.
This game is amazing. Ive only played for like 7 months but us and our friends love to see what its like being a god. 5 stars.
We LOVE the acid blobs so cute! But you developer should make it so you can feed it acid and it grows bigger and bigger until eventually it bursts into a gooey acid liquid please do this for us thank you if you did please do it dev.
Extremely good game do NOT give us wrong, but it would be so much better if we could go full screen and play with controllers.
It is very fun but we dont like how you have to spend 7$ for everything but you can still play with the free stuff we would appreciate if it were 5$.
We think this game is a lot of fun. Its really fun to design your own maps, but this is a lot of criticism. There should be some would be nice if they added some angels and some new characters and made the land a little bigger. It will be really fun because you cant really go in closer. It would be cool if you could zoom in more or connect onto a character and play them.
This masterpiece must be made by the lord himself because it is so amazing.
Pretty fun creating ,destroying things building continents and spawning creatures really great game and we would recommend this game to someone whos bored and wants something fun to do.
Both the Steam and the mobile app are pretty much perfect sandbox game and we love this game so much. We fully recommend this game and see what gets added next.
We love this game so much you can even make other monsters or animals have their own city.
This game is great and we love it so much.
We kinda wish there were more features you can use when you possess a creature and we also wish that some villages can be built underwater and we wish there was a dragon sapien and more bug sapiens.
We need to go to rehab too much play this game.
Awesome game, had some suggestions but we sent them in to be read, no bugs so far, absolutely beautiful game. We do wish the music had always played no matter how high you are.
This game is really fun on its own at the moment, but we personally think itd be awesome to see more water related animals, like sharks, dolphins, maybe even sea monsters and mermaids. Just a suggestion because the game is still super cool.
We really love the game but we have a few requests. Starting with muskets and cannons with Napoleonic uniforms when civilizations get around to year 120. So please make our world a rainbow by the hopefully, the Musket Era thank you for taking to look at this pls add the Musket era in the next update, please and thank you.
The new update is fire but we know Im late but if you see this you should play this.
We like this game somuch because anything can happen like this one time when we were makeing a candyland and all of the elfs started too go over there and live there.
This is a really cool game. We would suggest updating it soon, as it feels like its missing something. Maybe make the game completely free, so us players can have all the stuff right off the bat. Just a suggestion.
We love the new update it allows new civilizations and ideas, but might we suggest bringing new weapons like muskets and horses, along with domestication and interspecies marriage that allow interspecies children, it is completely up to how much time you have and give us feedback on how and why you can or cant do most of the stuff we suggested whenever you have time again we love the update and you have plenty of time to update and add more on your own time. Another suggestion we have is allowing interracial couples and kids with the sub species and other races.
This game is amazing. We can be creative, make worlds, and just do whatever we want. We also love the fact that you can also make laws like if mushrooms explode. They fulfill our wish for a fantasy world, a world just full of peace (or war, and also just make us have more creativity. This really is an exciting game and we recommend it if you want to make fake world with different species. Yeah, lot's of stuff you have to buy but its totally worth it. But yeah we love this game. ^_^.
Hey Maxim, we hope this finds you well see Ive been a fan of your game for a decade now. Ive grown up in support of every update, change and improvement youve made since the early days of the game. Ever since your newest and most incredible update Ive had the best time of our life playing with some of the newest features. We email you now to propose an idea to you. We were wondering if it was possible for you and your wonderful team to add a trait inspired from dragon balls transformation. The way this trait would work would essentially be that after a unit kills a high level monster like a dragon or crabzilla they gain the ability to harness either their form or power. Similar to the metamorphosis trait already in the game except they can turn back human and if the player decides to possess one of them they also get the ability to transform as them.
It the best fun game ever made we play it in tablet.
Since shotgun is in the game why shouldve you add musket, flintlock, pistol, and rifle.
Best game ever super fun and we have a special message for the creators of world box you should put the modernbox mod on iPad.
Awesomeness. Only. There. It is true. We also have a suggestion. Demogorgons and demodogs.
Well this game is extremely good but you guys should add much more features, like there should be more controls and things to do when playing as a character you selected, you should add jobs, income for people and not just how much gold or loot they have, the richer people should most likely have better and more developed homes, and this might be a little big but you guys should allow us to be able to see the inside of homes, so basically if we click a specific house or building we should be able to see the inside, that wouldnt really matter but its just an opinion, there should also be more clothe in the game, as well as shields, more firearms, and more abilities such as more powers and etc, we should also be able to play as a character and get a teammate or friend that could follow us or protect us, overall the game is REALLY GOOD.
For updates Are you a baby and more features like cars and planes a new monsters The new features we dont have some pets and dogs and cats and new houses.
We love the game its awesome and all but we think there could be a prison so if villagers dont pay taxes or hurt friendly villagers they go to jail also we think there could use a bit more action so more destructive environments,buildings and possibly blood fore the people and one more thing maybe there could be the future so tanks and stuff. Thats it.
We feel like god when we play this game.
This is a master piece but one thing please make everything free.
The detail you guys went for adds so much depth to playing god lol.
We like this game and all its features. However, we are aware of the newest update it got and that it has new features. But we just wish, that for the next update, there would be dinosaurs. That would be so cool. Another awesome mention. CLOWNS. THAT WOULD BE SO AWESOME. THEY FUNCTION LIKE THE ALIENS KINDA LIKE KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE! But those are our thoughts. We hope the creator puts consideration to our words. God bless.
Wish there were more than just kings like other ideologies and we wish you could control what countries recognize other countries.
1st, an achievement for getting every other achievement which would give you something, but idk what 2nd, something similar to Crabzilla 3rd, the ability to change the name of a god in religions (unless that already exists) and the ability to create gods in religions 4th, the ability to banish people to h e double hockey sticks and the ability to ascend people to heaven or even into minor gods 5th, the ability to send divine messages to a single creature, multiple creatures, villages, kingdoms, or every single life form in the current world. The divine messages can tell people to do things, make proof of a gods existence or to just say hi to them. 6th, a cultural trait that makes slavery happen within a kingdom and a cultural trait that makes the people hate the idea of slavery. Any kingdom that has the hatred of slavery trait will be more likely to go to war with and/or break alliances with a kingdom that allows slavery and vise versa 7th, a village can now have part of the village break away, sometimes (but not always) forming a new kingdom or joining one that already exists. There are three ways this can happen: one, a rebellion happens in part of the village. Two, the part breaks away with permission from the king and leaders. Three, the king and leader decide to give the part of the village to a different kingdom (which always results in joining an existing kingdom and sometimes in rebellion). The part of the village can also be captured by another kingdom if they dont succeed in capturing the entire village but do succeed in capturing that part. 8th, the ability to visit the lands of death (which is where people go once they die or get ascended/descended) and where they go depends on what they did in their lives, and their actions change which land of death they go to. Mostly good actions go to the heavenly place, mostly neutral actions go to a place like the fields of asphodel, and mostly bad actions go to the fiery inferno below. You can also change which one people go to, but only while they are still alive. You can also bring people back from death if you wish, and doing so gives them the Jesus trait. The lands of death can also have their names changed. But yeah, this game is one of the best Ive ever played, and even if it gets boring, it is still great to come back to. We may come edit this if we get any new ideas. – a fan of god games.
The option to initiate war should be expanded to include more choices; the forced execution of meteorite retribution should be avoided, preventing the destruction of nations. The game also features the element of an immortal kingdom. It's pretty good, always improving; wishing it continued success.
We just love it because its amazing.
The game is perfect with the spawning and the alliances mechanism can relive our stress since all of the cities keep going to war.
So we love the new subspecies update but we feel like it could be more. For one the devs could do a civilization for the dragons and zombies as well as the mushroom people.
We can play it any time and it will take us off annoying things and we have fun playing as a god.
Add the message when a village joins an alliance.
