AMAZING* *(Apart from a couple things) Ok so I have been playing this game for YEARS and I am obsessed with it. I love how you can get close and personal on animals and create their homes in whichever way you want; you can make islands for the animals to live on, you can put them on mountains, or you can do mix, something like an enormous forest with a beautiful lake and a small mountain near it. But I think it’s a pain to get all the food for the animals and feed it to them individually, so I think it would be awesome if the foxes and wolves could hunt other prey animals. And also, I think it would be cool if you could add more animals like lions and sharks and birds of prey and like for lions you could add a savanna environment, and birds of prey could live in super high trees, and I was thinking maybe there could be a jungle option with monkeys or jaguars. These are all just my suggestions, so do what you devs want! I’ll be a fan either way. And maybe the animals could be more willing to explore beyond their own territory. And (I bet others have been asking you guys for this too) lots more land space. And maybe you could have save files so that people could have multiple environments at the same time and not have to remake it every time they leave the game. And maybe there could be weather changes along with the night and day thing that’s already been done. Alright, probably the time for me to zip it ! Heh, sorry for keeping you.

About Toca Nature by Toca Boca

Create nature and observe it grow. Plant trees, and a forest will grow. Build a mountain and take in the scenery. Gather berries, mushrooms, or nuts to give to the various animals. As you enjoy everything Toca Nature has to offer, don't forget to take pictures of the incredible moments. We adore how the creatures come to life and the children can see the environments they are best suited to in Toca Nature, a creative and engaging software that allows kids to use their creativity to create their own worlds. The fact that you can use the food you collect to feed the animals in their natural homes is a big hit with kids. Instead of a definite goal, the educational emphasis is on exploration and observation.

I have been a long time user of Aldiko, but today I got hit by the new version. The interface is awful and lots of features I use are gone! It is impossible to read the words on the setting screen - it's superimposed over the book text. I can't change the font and background colours anymore. The sliding brightness control is gone. The ability to switch from day to night is also gone. Smooth page transitions are gone. Now when I turn a page I'm not sure if it worked or not so I sometimes press again only to find I'm two pages ahead. Library has no "recently read" or last added sort functions. All in all a massive fail with the new version. I just hope I can go back to the earlier version without losing my library and history!

Toca Nature by Toca Boca reviews

Pretty graphics and I like that it has no transactions or anything, but the zooming feature and animal interaction is very limited. You cant move the camera or pinch to zoom in and out, so to interact with the animals and landscape you have to stay dizzyingly close to everything and look in one direction. With games like this I also expect the animals to be able to feed from you and have a type of friendship system with the player and/or the other animals, but all they do is eat and grow

It's a really fun & good game! I've spent hours on it, & it's fun to explore & discover new details that are hidden away. I would like to suggest some things though: more space, more options (New animals, new world building materials such as peaceable bushes, moss, ferns), new activities to do or ways to interact with animals (Animals reacting to one another would be a cool feature) & the ability to make caves.

This truly is one of my favorite apps at age 17. It's relaxing and fun. Though, I have suggestions. One: Maybe add a reset button? It's frustrating to restart the way I do. And: could you add zooming in on the build screen to make building the biome easier? Other than those things, this is a calming game and i love it definitely worth $4

something's wrong with it. I don't know what happened, but after a while of not using it, I opened the app, and every time I press the 'my books' button, the whole app just freezes, and then stops working. it's very annoying, and the only reason i'm not going back to aldiko classic is because of the free annotations/highlight feature, which i've grown quite fond of. please fix this. edit: i've also seen i'm not the only one with this issue, so that's reassuring.

- Lorven Ranielle

not surprused they updated this for their online store. it's not accessible and people are having a hard time accessing and adjusting especially when these features and updates are not made once in a while. it was made in one go and you expect your users to get used to that and adapt to it in one night? where is the scrollbar where you can jump from one page to another. where is the right alignment. this sucks so bad. do better. and im not surprised many people are complaining.

- Therese Liu

I really tried to get used to this but the overall experience was really bad. Forcing everyone to 'upgrade' to this version when the Classic version works well was a dirty move. There isn't even a define option and tapping to turn the pages just pulls up the options.
