Our Expert Score

89/100

Melon Sandbox is the definitive creative playground on mobile. It is a pure physics simulator that gives you all the tools and none of the rules. Whether you want to build complex machinery, test out elaborate traps, or just see how different objects interact under pressure, the game’s powerful physics engine makes it all possible.

The minimalist, 'ragdoll' style is iconic and allows the game to run smoothly even when the screen is filled with dozens of interactive elements. The real strength of the game lies in its community and the endless ways you can combine items to create your own scenarios. It’s a brilliant, digital toy box that encourages experimentation and creativity above all else. If you enjoy games like People Playground or Garry's Mod, this is a must-have for your mobile library.

Ideas
Wed Jul 01 2026 Player 1x1

I really love this game! I have some ideas for it though. 1: Pets. I know there are mods for this already but it would be nice if they were already added in the game. There could be different dog and cat breeds for each character, and maybe a fish (and an in bowl variant) for Coral. Some other pets could be frogs and tortoises. All pets can blink, and tortoises can go in their shells after it is activated by clicking its shells. There should be terrariums and cages or beds to add to a realistic effect 2: Mod Refunds. When I try to buy something from the Store, it sometimes glitches and I get no item, or some features don’t work on the mod, and in serious cases, it swaps it with a similarly priced item. It would be nice if in the Editor, your Account, or the Store, there was an option to refund an item. There could be 10- 15 refunds a year for free users, and for premium users 40-infinite. 3: Model tutorials. This game is based off of creating your own things and It would be nice if there were official guides by The Melon Sandbox Crew, and players on how to make mods, it could be an option in the menu or on the opening page at the top right with a tv on it. It gives you the option to browse guides, or create your own. It must be checked and approved before it becomes a guide. All the guides are free, or they can be bought for like 5- 10 melcoins. That’s all I have for now. I hope you can add some soon!

Maybe add more in your next update?

You know since you have like back in the time medieval armor, it’s only right to make like samurai stuff, from Japan. And I’m getting tired of the people, it’s over and over again the same thing, maybe add like strawberry’s, banana, grape and others. Maybe a dragon fruit, plus maybe like for holidays theres event items like candy canes fireworks, and you have to get on the game and update it in order to have it forever , and also if you can, make it to where apple users can access the editor, and maybe add more guns, I know you added the cup thrower rocket launcher and others, but you haven’t added like anymore assault rifles or anything, and maybe you can add katanas to the game to fit the samurai armor, and also I like everything in the game now, but can you add like more mechanical stuff like a station for robots or something, and if you can add cars, it’ll really be fun like cars crashing into eachother, and like add boats, and new maps, there hasn’t been any new maps lately, maybe like a snowy one, or, others, and can you make like a gun or a mechanism to where you can change the water, the only way I know to change is using the tea box, but maybe add more fruits, and more dishes, and also add more building items, and add anchors for apple, because apple can’t get the editor like I mentioned before, this is the longest I have made a review, but it’s worth it because i LOVE the GAME it’s so fun, and the gore, it just makes me, like… HAPPY

More suggestions

Hey it’s me again I’m glad you listened to my bicycle idea and what if you added a new syringe when you inject an NPC with it they will regenerate when killed, add a flower charecter it should have yellow greenish blood, you should make an endless default map with seeds such as one that makes the ground lumpy a seed that makes NPC’s bounce, you should add a tsunami to natural disasters it will push melons across the map and eventually the tsunami will wear down it can throw melons, you should add coral to objects you have all the other characters that have their object variations it can be turned into a living through the nanosembler, you should add a way to make livings fly a jet pack of some sort maybe?, you should add lava lamps they can make more light and make color they will get hot over time eventually setting living’s ablaze and can be broken, you should add a fan it can stop livings from burning and can be adjusted until it freezes livings, you should add a flood to disasters it will slowly rise through the map until draining, you should add a new bomb that doesn’t do much but it just bounces the living, you should add a beehive when a living is nearby black pixels will appear which are bees which will swarm the living that will slowly start to hurt the living, you should add an American football to the game alongside some sports helmets gloves and others, you should finally add a UFO vehicle it can make beams that set livings on fire and can fly it can hold only 2 livings so those are more ideas

Awesome game highly recommend

My request to make the game more creative
Fri May 19 2023 ride#1

I have a request for you to add a mod to the game request is to add a potion that can make a melon become alive and well run away and maybe battle each other The way for them to battle each other is you can use the alive potion on as many melons as you want and you can throw a melon at another one and they will get ticked off and fight I also have a request for a new map for anyone that wants to build their own for a personal map that they will only have unless they share with others The way they do that is you can put add your own and then give them everything to make a torture room or some thing creative when I say everything to make a room I mean they can start off with a huge box and work their way up to make a torture room for the melons I hope you accept my requests make your game more popular in fun to play oh and I’m sorry when I said you see a light potion I mean if you use the alive potion they can make the mountains active move and run away as if real humans would do so if there’s a room and you try to drown them then you can do what you want with them but when you don’t touch them they might run away If they’re scared thank you for your time. oh I also forgot to mention to make your own map you can have several of your own maps you can’t just have one click on make your own map and then you make a map and you can use that or the other ones you guys made and if you want you can make it another one why stay having the one you made previously thanks for that buddy

The request that will make others love this game.

As you saw in the title this idea would change everything! My idea is can you do in the main screen like the “main screen” where you can play with settings. You should put a make mod area in it so if you or someone else makes a small mod then ONLY the creator can use it. And this just in this game no mod apps or nothin. Or in quicker words just make a update where you can make your own mod and you don’t need a mod app. And you don’t have to remake every time you come back. And you can make anything in this make mod area. Example: an AK-47. Details: when you begin making a mod you will have to choose a category: explosive, firearm, melee, rag doll (melon), clothing, or syringe. Then you can choose a color click where you want to put it, then You make what size it comes in, after that you name it, and finally if it’s a Syringe then you choose a effect. If it’s a firearm then I think it should be 0.1 for a reloading speed like the rocket launcher, 0.3 for revolver t fire speed, 0.5 for a auto shotgun speed and 1.0 for speed like the sub machine gun / SMG. 1.5 for mini gun speed. Please do this, I know this is going to take a long time but in the end you will probably begin seeing all 5 star reviews and no complain about anything! (except for bugs and slow FPS, that maters on what the person creates.)

Addicted!

A couple of years ago, I downloaded this game thinking it would just be a little sandbox game that would be somewhat fun, but no. This game was so much more than I expected! The second I turned this game on, it was like a whole new world! Here are some interesting things that are in this game: 1. Graphics: this game has great graphics! Most games that are pixelated like this one, have pretty bad graphics, but this one? Great graphics! 2. Updates: When I first downloaded this game a couple of years ago, it was completely different from what strides it has made now. It used to have the mod store, but since MelCoins didn’t really exist yet, all of them required ads to get. But now, people can make their own mods and get paid MelCoins. (Which if you don’t know, is money for mods, or other things.) 3. Polls for new stuff: Most games when it comes to making updates they just make something random, but not Melon: Sandbox! Usually there are mini updates for, maps, vehicles, and mods! And you don’t have to pay to do the poll, and you can see which thing is winning. (Like how right now the endless ocean is winning against the Lava map and space map!) But my favorite part has got to be the vehicles! There are currently 6 vehicles to drive! And if you don’t know how to put your melons into the vehicles, its quite simple, all you gotta do is freeze the game (Which is by clicking the very top right corner button that looks like this: || ) once you have done that, spawn the vehicle you want and drag your melon over to the seat and BOOM! You got a melon in a vehicle! And that wraps up this very long review! 5 stars! Need I say more?

GREAT game just a few problems…
Thu Jul 18 2024 sanic0000

So I love this game, I usually play it when I’m bored and have nothing to do and it helps me cure my boredom. Despite the ads every 5 mins or so I think it’s pretty cool but the ads aren’t really my problem. The new updates are and I’m not talking about every time they release the map or item that you can vote for I’m talking about the mod updates. When they released this thing where you could go in and get mods for an ad or like just free id usually get all of them that’s how I now have tons and tons of mods and the mods would refresh every day im pretty sure then they added like some new types of mods sections but there was only different on every maybe 4 days?? But then one day they decided to take that all away and release something called melon coins. I thought it was kinda cool at first but I didn’t think it was anymore when I saw you had to pay for them. I except that you would be able to get them doing daily and weekly challenges I guess but that wasn’t the case. What do you use the melon coins for you ask?? Well you use them for buying mods and that’s kinda boring considering there were free mods everyday that you could get. There were still a few free mods you could get but the only way to get them is to watch an ad and at first I didn’t think it was that bad. But then after every update they released it seemed that free mods were disappearing and now currently there’s not a ton of free mods you can get anymore so most of them just cost melon coins. If you read this extremely long useless review to the end.. thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day today!!!
