My Little Universe is a world-building sandbox adventure where players are tasked with transforming a desolate moon into a thriving paradise. Using a variety of tools, you’ll gather resources from diverse biomes like dark forests and snowy tundras to craft weapons and manage materials. Use these resources to unlock new 'hexes' of land, gradually expanding your planet and uncovering 9 unique worlds. Whether mining, crafting, or fighting off local monsters, every action contributes to the growth of your custom-made universe.

Our Expert Score

90/100

My Little Universe is an incredibly satisfying 'cozy' survival and world-building game. You start on a tiny, barren hexagon with nothing but an axe and a pickaxe, and through the simple act of gathering wood and stone, you begin to expand the world literally beneath your feet. The 'hex-based' expansion mechanic is brilliant; it gives a tangible sense of growth as you unlock new biomes, from snowy tundras to dark forests.

The game strikes a perfect balance between being a relaxing idle-gatherer and an adventure game. There are enemies to fight and dungeons to explore, but the penalty for failure is low, keeping the 'cozy' vibe intact. The art style is colorful and chunky, and the progression loop—gather materials, upgrade tools, expand land—is perfectly tuned. Whether you're playing solo or in co-op, it’s a delightful sandbox experience that lets you build your own little paradise one tile at a time.

this is actually really fun
Mon Sep 29 2025 Charlie03201

I really like this game every time don’t play for a while I always come back this has to be my favorite game of all time. This game at first looks like a boring grinding simulator but it is so much more this really fun to explore look around always exciting to look at the next part and when you stop playing you want to see what could be in the next tile and the graphics in this game is SO good the simple style mixed with all of the realistic stuff especially the lighting the planet challenges and the bosses even just the simple enimies are really good even all of the extra stuff that never needed to be added is really good and adds the finishing touches there are a few bugs but I think that they will eventually be fixed I am really excited to see what will be added in the future (I am just saying I could beat a dragonora challenge with 1 revive on factorium but I am not saying they need to be buffed)unfortunately the last time I played there was the portal glitch. I had to swipe out the game so many times for this bug I hope this is fixed soon. it also takes kinda long for an update that isn’t a half feature. There also needs to be more planets, i feel like Asium was pretty long ago so we definitely need some more planets in this game I think the planets are pretty cool so if there is a next planet I am exited to see the theme.

Best game I’ve ever played but has some minor issues
Thu Apr 04 2024 wewe568

Wow, I have never expected a game to be this good! I really like this game, it’s fun, satisfying, and overall very good. There are just some small problems and glitches that interrupt gameplay. The game is good and some ads are worth watching, but when I get to the end of the ad, the ad or game suddenly freezes, it also happens to other games on my devices and also my sibling’s devices. I think this happened to everyone at one point, but I have to restart the game (no not at the beginning of the story), and it’s just kind of annoying. My games have crashed, but this happens so suddenly (for example when I enter world 4 or 5 or 6 or I start the world 6 or 7 challenge). When a game crashes right before a challenge starts, the game crashes and it’s on its 3-hour cooldown. I find this super annoying and it happens to me a lot. I know that every game has ads. The ads in this game appear less often than other games that I played. I get ads when I unlock a tile, die, get hit, finish a challenge, enter or exit a dungeon, (happens to me most often at dungeon 4-1,) or travel to another planet. I know everyone has watched at least 1,000 ads total, and they find it annoying. I also find the ads very annoying, and some ads are not worth watching for. Overall, this game is really good, satisfying, and fun. It just has some minor problems.

AMAZING GAME, but there is a slight issue
Tue Jul 12 2022 graze the raze

I was just scrolling through the App Store when I found this game. I thought it was going to be a cheap game, but when I opened up the app I was AMAZED with the results of my experience. Personally, I find it kind of satisfying to have to break things and craft new items all by yourself and then advance from world to world and from biome to biome. I find it especially relaxing with the sound effects. For example, when you break stone or other types of ROCK and, when you have to create a new set of land, the sound of the items being used to create that part of land just gives me the TINGLES! There’s only ONE problem. I don’t know if this happens to anybody else, but while I’m playing, at random points in the game, it SLOWS DOWN, FREEZES, and GLITCHES to the point in which I have to close out the ENTIRE app and shut down my phone COMPLETELY just to END those effects. However, I’m still giving this game FIVE STARS because I feel like it is a good game for STRESS issues and just plain old FUN! It is a great game for all ages and, unlike other games I have played, has PG-13 ads. All I ASK is of the DEVELOPERS is to fix these bugs and glitches so that everyone else may ENJOY the game as much as possible. Overall, I view this game as a FREE and BETTER version of Minecraft that EVERY single person in the world DESERVES to play! :)

Great game but crashes the mood
Sun Aug 28 2022 CarpHarp 4Love

I am really enjoying this game. It is really fun to play and it is good for when waiting for something, bored, or just wanting to chill. I bought the ads pack, which has proven to be totally worth it. A tip for anyone reading this, buy a pack that includes in-game bucks, materials, weapon upgrades, that also includes the no ads. If I had known the no ads were included in other packs, I would have gone that route. Now for the -1 star bit. This game has been crashing way too often. I will be deep in a cave gleefully swinging my axe when all the sudden, boom. Crash. When I open the game back up, it will either put me at the beginning of the cave - or whichever entrance/exit I last passed through (if I’m “lucky”), or it will dump me at the beginning of the world I was in (very unlucky). I am currently in a cave in the Odysseum world where I have to pay 1000 gold coins for a ferry. I got to the Cerberus and got the crown. I’m making my way back behind that, and the game crashes. This is when it gets really annoying. Now I have to start back at the beginning, buy another ferry for another 1000 gold coins, try to find where I was, and start going again. Also, what’s up with rafts, ships, etc. just disappearing? If we bought them, they should stay when we come out of a cave or join that world again. Sometimes they do stay put, but many times they do not and must be purchased again.

Awesome

The new updates have been amazing!!! I love the daily quests and the new dungeons. They continue to keep me interested and invested even when I have completed all of the other challenges. The number of resources and new machines/factories (?) can be a bit overwhelming but I like variety too. Keeps it interesting! Some critiques that I have are that the new daily dungeons can be very glitchy. Some of them say that they have renewed since the previous day, but when I go through the portal nothing is there to complete. I have also noticed that since the newest update, the game has gotten more laggy and tends to crash slightly more. I love the game and it will be a staple on my phone forever and I recommend it to everyone. OLD REVIEW: I recently downloaded this game and immediately fell in love with it. I love the graphics and the mechanics. Unlike some other commenters, I have no issues with the grind needed at times to get resources. I think it adds to the adventure aspect of the game. The ads aren’t much of an issue to me either. I am quite bummed though to find out that I beat the whole game in just a few days. I think the suggestion to add daily tasks could keep me interested and coming back for more. I’d love to keep playing but with everything maxed out, it is hard to find much interest in the game without an update. More worlds would be perfect but any sort of new interest should hold me over for a bit.

One of the best relaxing and while one of my favorite mobile game

I really love it I saw the ad for it it didn’t say oh mamas is that I can’t reach the pink color I don’t have someone I didn’t buy songs voice or just someone just getting happier on the phone and showing it to the camera taking all the seats see the fake green screen PNG thing no this game is just a genuine so I decided to download it cause it looked interesting and I had a lot of fun with it and you guys don’t seem like money hungry people who will just have like among us or other things they think it’s him just everywhere it really feels genuine and unique and it’s really fun as well I like the mechanics one slight problem I’m not gonna make the game for size of the world people to feel a slight problem the sharks I guess I’m not really sure why they exist but I Guess they stop you from explore in the Highlander planet I don’t know and I can’t it’s kind of weird to hear how to upgrade weapons so frequently but it’s not something I will give this game for stars instead of five this game is probably one of the best games I’ve ever played that’s why I’m not putting it down to four stores this game is so much fun and relaxing I’m glad I got it it is a good stress reliever and it’s just so peaceful like I just love the music in the game just also another christening criticism I hope this game addict finance the orange guy William Afton orange guy just does the dance when he goes into the portal I do not like that part but still I do not want to get the same four star rating it deserves five so this game is just so much fun I love it

Without compare, the best game I’ve ever played on my iPad

Well, I have to remember what I wrote. You can never write anything a second time that turns out the way you wanted it. For some reason, if you write your review first, and then give it a star rating, it deletes the text of your review. DAMMIT! This is great game. Very fond of the single player RPG style games. I like civilization, Diablo, elder scrolls, those kinds of games. The ones that have an iPad version doesn’t always play well. well, this game plays very well. The graphics are not fancy or CPU heavy, but they’re very good and they are perfect for this game. I like the process of having to collect resources to proceed and I found the good way to collect the resources I need. Buy the update that deletes the ads, especially if you’re one of those people whose major complaint is the ad. Somebody has to pay the salaries of the programmers. These games are a business, not a charity. The gameplay is so much nicer when it’s not chopped up with ads for some other game that you’ll never play. Well, this review isn’t anywhere as good as the one I wrote before but, this is it. A fantastic, fun game. Hey Apple! stop reformatting my reviews. I include a space where I want space and I don’t need you to cram everything together. Breaking a review up into paragraphs makes it easier to read.

fun... in certain doses
Sun May 01 2022 lucia bolin owo

i like this game for the stress relieving and goal oriented play (my autistic brain loves the very clean cut 'get this much to move on' and clear indication of progress. good for distractions from stress too). its very pleasing to look at and im honestly not as bothered by ads as others cause it gives me a chance to look away from my screen and take a breather. the pop ups of 'watch an ad for this resource!' scattered about can be a bit annoying but not game altering. my biggest complaint is the LAG ! i have a pretty fast phone that never really lags even with intense apps but there were times even in early parts of the game where it slows to like 2fps (especially around enemies) and my phone literally heated up to a worrying degree. im not sure how much this can be helped, obviously a game for cell phones that looks like this might have a hard time running, but jeez. it is genuinely unplayable at that point and it lags my recent apps to where it takes like 10 seconds to just exit out and close completely off of recent apps (which is the only way i can stop the lag). its a little frustrating that i get into a groove of playing but after like 15 minutes maximum i have to hard exit and start up again. this all happens even when this game is my only app open. dont know how many people will see this review considering there are literal thousands of reviews (and a surprisingly low amount of people pointing this issue out) but yeah. its also of note that im only on the second world but i cant imagine the lag getting better as i progress tbh
