Most popular feedback for Toca Nature by Toca Boca

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.

Excellent app!! I've been using it for the past week due to throat surgery and it's been extremely helpful. If you don't mind me suggesting, I would add a "clear" button to delete all text written, faster and more easily. I would also add a "select sentence" option so that if you want to repeat one it doesn't start from the beginning. I managed to do it once but I couldn't do it again so I think it was not intuitive enough (for me at least). Good job over all

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

Talk FREE – Text to Voice – Read aloud reviews

When I paste an entire volume of a novel and press play it reads instantly, it even adds another option known as "Speak with talk" when you highlight text on a wiki page or google searches. this is a proper text to speech app. The only problem is, it gets interupted when a notification arrives, now you have to back track where it stopped. Luckily there is a seek which you can use to guess and continue from there.

It sounds pretty natural. I'm happy listening to news articles on this. No intrusive ads. Occasional problem where it tries to open a link hidden somewhere in the text I send it. This can be fixed by pasting as plain text but I would prefer for this to be the default when selecting the app from the share menu. Also I would like a progress bar to see how much is left to play

I've been looking for something like this, oddly enough, I wasn’t having much luck. All I found were apps that were too specific/couldn't read from 3rd party apps, or apps I had to pay for. Then, I came across this little beauty. It's simple & efficient. Good work. Thanks. I've ONE complaint. The read out of highlighted text will randomly stop when played from the context menu but, reads fine if typed (copy/paste, in this case) into the app itself. Aside from that, I've had no problems at all.
