What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Players appreciate the game as a relaxing, fun merge experience that's good for winding down, but some criticize it for poor optimization that causes excessive heat on their systems. The main complaint is that endgame content feels incomplete and repetitive, consisting mainly of logging in to collect idle rewards with little to do once gear is maxed out.

suddenly the time to craft a tier 1 wooden axe goes from like 40 seconds to 15 minutes >:( but dont worry, you can pay $5 to unlock a second crafting table

I have played over 50 hours, and I am so irritated that what is listed as an additional amount of xp being held is a lie. The math just aint mathin. One of the xp storage container is supposed to hold an additional 300, and it is actually 75. I cannot open a new area without spending forever to make so many storage containers. I can see that you guys just want to force people to pay to play, but it is not happening. I pay into games that I love. I will never be forced or pushed to feel that I need money to play a cozy solo game. So ridiculous. I would have paid money if this wasn't the issue lol way to go, lost another player!

no commercials or limits to make merges. Once I built up my equipment and resources I reached a point where I can play as long as I want, there is always something to break or merge or craft, etc. For me, this makes the game more enjoyable than phone merge apps.

Addictive and simple, easy to enjoy if you like something repetitive.
