Hilda Creatures

I love the Hilda T.V. show and was happy to find a game based off it. The game has the shows style and characters in it as well as new ones and is cute. The animation of the characters is smooth and I the different locations are cool. I also like the music. Although the game overall is nice I have a few problems. The first is how there is a lack in variation of what some of the characters say when you interact with them. For example, most of the elves say the exact same things over and over again when you meet them. Another thing I don’t like is how Hilda, David, and Frida keep giving me the same items from there bag almost every time I see them. I have like seven of Davids box of rocks and I can’t get rid of them. I also have a huge issue with how quickly the plants die. I could water my plants before I go to school or bed, and come back and they will be dead or close to it. It is annoying to have to keep replacing my plants, only for them to die. I had a lot of acorns but now I have only a few because I have to keep watering and replacing the plants I lost. It’s also upsetting how expensive some items are. Some of them cost hundreds of gold acorns and it’s very difficult to get that many without paying real money for them. This game is fun and mostly well made but these problems are frustrating so for now I rate it four star, but if these are fixed in the future I will give it the last star :)

I hadn’t had any issues with crashing until this last update (Jan 10). And now I can’t even open it. I’m sure they will fix it soon enough though. As for my experience so far; I am at the max level (level 50), I have met all but 3 or 4 of the available creatures, I’ve opened all the levels (with the exception of the most recent one), and I’ve collected nearly 150,000 reguLar acorns. That being said I have a few suggestions. I wish there was a way to exchange a large amount of regular acorns for some golden ones or a way to purchase golden acorn items for with regular acorns (maybe at a larger markup to balance things out). I also think it would be nice if items indicated which category of creatures they attract (friends, elves, animals, etc.). It would also be fun to have a larger variety of food items. For a while there I was given a challenge by the Woodman to reach a 50% friendship level with a troll but I saw based on other review responses that it’s a glitch and that you should delete that challenge. I think it would be cool to add adults to the character lineup in addition to Hilda’s close friends (her mother, teachers, and the weather scientist possibly). I think it would also be cool to include the ghost teenagers too. Other than that I think this game is really fun and has a lot of potential. I love the art style.

The tv show is adorable, my whole family loves it. I got the game to play with my kids and in general we think it’s really cute. However they got pretty bored with it after a while. It’s set up so that you have to go back and play every so often throughout the day. Otherwise the food runs out or the plants die. Replacing plants gets expensive, and the watering is pretty frequent. Without them though, you don’t attract the little creatures. Frequently they die or the food runs out while we are asleep. We also miss a lot of creatures by sleeping. Also, the creatures say the same things so often that the kids grew tired of it. It seems they just did an update that has added some variety of play and my kids are interested again. Getting the little bits and bobs and curious as to what they’re for has peaked their curiosity. Overall a very sweet little game, however the time constraints are frustrating. I don’t want the kids to have to play every hour or two to keep things going. I wish watering and feeding was once daily.

This game is lovely! It’s a fun, low-key collection game where you can check in with occasionally during the day and enjoy collecting creatures without spending a ton of time in the app itself. The art and music are both lovely and fit perfectly with the show’s aesthetic. I’m level 10 right now and quite enjoying the game. I do hope that they continue to add new creatures and locations as time goes on, because there won’t be much to do once everything is maxed out and this game is not as expansive as other collection games I’ve played. My one complaint is that I wish that the game explained what the item properties meant. Right now, I don’t really have any idea what “leaf,” “ball,” “face,” and “diamond” mean. I have a couple of guesses, but I don’t feel confident about any of them. If the information is there it is not easily accessible because I’ve looked all over the app. If they added this information this review would easily become a 5 star review.

I really enjoyed this show, and have been enjoying the game as well up till recently, when I have suddenly had to deal with repeated game crashes. It happens almost every time I interact with a creature, as well as every single time I attempt to access one of the trollberg locations. It is very aggravating, and continues to happen even after updating the game. I, too, have had the same problems as a previous viewer with the lack of variety in creature responses, and have multiples of every offering from the sparrow scouts. Also, there is an issue with the woodman’s goals. I have had the same goals for weeks to a. meet a certain character and 2. reach a certain level of friendship with that character, but said character NEVER appears. Again, very frustrating. I am glad to see you added a new location, but as I cannot access it without the game crashing, it does me no good. Thanks for your time, I hope all these things can be fixed. Edit: Since writing this yesterday, my game is completely broken. It crashes as soon as I click either map, and cannot be played at all.
