Overall the game is really relaxing. But they can make it more enjoyable and appealing via adding some more features. For example u can add a magnifying tool so we can zoom in or out on the specific part of the screen by pinching it and then add in a move tool so we will be able to move freely throughout the screen. And last but not least, add more customisation to the background so we can choose whatever the colour we want for the screen. Anyways I liked it.

This app is an excellent tribute to the Flash games I spent hours on as a kid. I'm very impressed with the complex interactions each element has with the others! I think the game could be improved with mechanisms, like fans to control wind and maybe the ability to move entities on the screen with our fingers. Either way, it's already a great and intuitive little toy.

Very fun and they've been adding more stuff, I've had it for over a year now. It isn't 100% accurate though with reality. Like the gallium doesn't absorb into any of the metals to make it brittle, but they got the melting point right (just barely below the temperature of your finger). And the magnesium doesn't react with water which it should. The electricals are somewhat okay, but doesn't fully obey the laws of electricity. It's a nice to play with but is not a true representation.

I love this game! It is a true sandbox game with no defined goals which is not a playstyle for everyone, but I love the freedom it gives you. I often find myself getting sucked into the game due to my own curiosity. The settings are highly customizable and most of the items in the game are available for free, with only a small percentage needing payment. The only drawback is that the 'flash' that happens when you use uranium can be very bright, which may cause issues with photosensive users.

Possibly the most thorough and accurate particle physics game. Very easy to play, super simple controls and intuitive interface. A few things I'd like to see: 1: Undo button and save states. 2: Pipes with a directional flow (not just a tap.) 3: Wires, to conduct electrical charges. 4: Lead, to shield the uranium. 5: The addition of gravity wells. Which brings me to my next point: 6: Movement physics. A few simple objects, like paddles that turn, for water and steam. 😄

It's an excellent game. Very satisfying and fun, however, there are some things that I have to say that should be added. For one, the uranium is very quick at heating up and exploding, so I want a way to control the rate of which things explode. Second, I feel like there needs to be more new items. The items are great, actually, but sometimes it feels like there is not enough items. Finally, I would KILL for some ragdolls in the game that fight and a button to add gravity to glass&metal to break

This game is great. Well, if you can call it a game. I'd call it more of a voxel physics simulator, but it doesn't matter what you call it, because sand:box is great. I've spent a hours making crazy environments with random materials just testing to see what happens when I combine it with other random materials. Would not recommend if you have an older phone because it can get a tad bit laggy.

This is a really good game. It would be cool if there were solids that have differentiating weights such as a block with 100 kg weight and could crush through brick. It would also be cool if there were interactive objects such as switches that include wiring. I wish there was a multiplayer mode where you can make worlds with other people, but I don't think that will happen. Also with premium should come more features like instant erase or more backgrounds and more saves. I like this game a lot

I really like this game as a falling sand game. It's actually pretty optimized until, of course, you zoom all the way out, set the brush size to max, and fill half the screen with fire. But it really is good! I only want the wood to look a little more like... wood, and I want a lighter background. I was hoping for a sky blue. Oh, and an option to toggle solids replacing eachother when one is drawn over the other. 👍

Amazing physics, fun on long rides! But 2 BIG problems #1 liquid physics are wrong, I tried to build a water tower, and it did not move water up. Number 2 solids should have togleable gravity and a grab tool. For example, I grab a rock with gravity turned on and throw it at glass with gravity turned off. I understand if you can't do it you are just one person after all.

I love messing around with the app and have spent way too much time messing around. It's always fun to find new interactions between materials. The only feedback I have is that I wish there was a cold button much like the fire. A way to cool materials without leaving additional residue if your cursor slightly draws outside of the region to want to cool, much like it currently is with liquid nitrogen and snow.

This game has got to be one of the best casual games ever but I have a few ideas. One thing you could add in the game is Magnet( attracts everything to one point of the screen can work for mouse or touchscreen). Another is Gravity( you can turn Gravity on in the settings. For example if you spawn a rock it will fall just like water, acid or lava). One more thing you could add is Vote( people who play the game is able to vote on on an item or ability to added in the game).

really good game! i'm fine with the fact that you need to pay for like 8 pretty advanced elements as I'm a doofus and wouldn't understand them anyways. but otherwise really fun and addicting game to play offline or just when bored. 11/10! Edit: taking off of what someone else said, I think it would be super cool if you added the ability to change the background color. Otherwise, great game. Edit 2: I just downloaded it on my phone, and it downloaded in seconds. literally seconds. How.

I've been playing since 2017, I remember the old heat system, Molten glass always being yellow, no re-melting lava, only having one save-load button, etc. I made many memories. However, I have suggestions: when adjusting brush size, tin size stays the same. Why? Also, a toggleable gravity system for solid items would be amazing to help me better simulate collapses. Despite this, I adore the game, especially the single in-app purchase and ad-free experience. Thank you for this masterpiece.

Very good game, played it off and on for a few years. I like the new circuits, but honestly there doesn't seem to be a need for it. I also think a basic description of each thing in the game should be added. Just to save the time of having to figure it out. Also there should be more ways to cool things, water has limits due to boiling quickly, ice melts very easily. Cooling wire? Like a heating wire, uses power and all, but cools things down in a larger area than ice and can't melt.

Nice app. No ads, perfect. Alot of possibilities, nice. Overall, I say 5 stars. There could be more items. Maybe add people? 😁 also I just noticed how you can play this without internet. Way to go!!! 😄 I think there should be a magnet option (I just thought of that) that attracts metal. And maybe a button that makes every solid fall like water, or lava? 😁 edit: pls add blood?

This is the kind of game I have been looking for! No ads, no begging for 5 stars, there are infinite possibilities, infinite playtime, so much you could do! Everything is comprehensive and direct (apart from some of the materials, something like a description of what something does or how to use it would be nice). It's free. The only thing that requires my money is a few extra "DLC" materials, of which I plan to purchase to support this creative masterpiece.
