Why oh why did I pay for this! Really like the film and stumbled upon this but it's just a text game with very simple choices, don't waste your time
Best thing since sliced bread
So far this app works ok on my Galaxy s5. Lost a star for the time it takes for stuff to happen. Wish it were a game that you can sit down and play through. Instead it's more of a story, and it often takes Mark a while to respond. Still worth it for the price if you're a fan of the book/movie. Update: Lost another star because it keeps notifying me of a new message that just doesn't appear. Update 2: I finished the game and reset it. Now it keeps crashing on startup. Will try reinstalling.
This game is similar to my all time favorite series of games, Lifeline by 3 minute games. An interesting twist is that in this you need to look up answers to real scientific questions. Also, the time in which you respond matters. That's actually difficult and not something Lifeline enforces. Certainly worth a play while waiting for the next Lifeline game to come out. Failing in lifeline allows u to remind to any decision at anytime moving forward. This only lets u rewind 1 choice then u have to fail again.
The app is very glitchy. Just like how it was on my Kindlefire thats with Amazon I know. So the app doesn't even open anymore. A screen pops up and said unfortunately the app has stopped working. I just recently watched the movie and all so I thought about giving this game another try. But of course nope. Doesn't work. I'll try again when I wake up or in a few hours. UPDATE: I tried it again. I get farther than i did before. But once i got to the point where Mark was all packed up and leaving, the app stopped working. The title screen would show up then this would pop up "Unfortunately, The Martian has stopped." and then close. I do enjoy the story. The greater detail of him going through the construction modifications and reading the personal emails and the movements where he absolutely loses it. I kept me thinking and on the edge of my seat. Good story and game mechanics but the app is very crappy.
It worked the first few days, then the app wouldn't start for weeks. With the hope of an update to fix the issue I waited but it was for nothing. I had to reinstall the app to get it working again and lost all my progress. I'm very disappointed. I recommend Lifeline instead, which never had any issues.
I loved playing it but the story randomly jumped back like 5 days and now I have to replay a bunch of it, which is very annoying.
I love the game but there's one problem When Mark said he'd be back in an hour I have to wait for an hour This game is still great
I enjoyed this game quite a bit. I loved The Martian book and movie so the app just extended the pleasure. I did have some difficulty where the app would hang. Needed to restart my phone to fix the issue.
If you've read the book and saw the movie as I did, you'll find both dramatically more interesting than this game. Personally, I'd give it a miss.
Would be a lot better if I could turn off notifications. Really annoying at 3 am.
I really enjoy playing it but now I can't even start the game anymore, keeps crashing every single time!
This game is great but the only down side is it crashes all ALL THE TIME
Too often Mark Watney's response would be better suited to the choice I did not make.
Fun game. Seems to glitch up a lot. When it working, its fun.
..not so well executed. Force closes and other bugs that keep you from progressing. Plz fix. UPDATE: game just reset itself, now i have to go through everything again?? -1 star. I'm at a point where I'd not recommend buying this. I love the idea and the movie but it's kind of unplayable like this :(
It's not a game as such, but its still fun and its highly addictive to play. Very buggy though. It keeps loosing how far I got and going back several places.
Feels like you're apart of the book/movie.
I love the Martian and I loved this game too. Now to the VR Experience.
If you liked the movie you'll definitely like this!
Great game, just wish "Mark" responded faster
Great fun now they have fixed the bugs.
Waiting time for avant's is to Long
Love the story telling and the new style of game.
I hope get the update movies + this game thanks😏😋
Finally was able to finish after update. Loved it.
Need more games like this <3
An enhanced text adventure that feels extremely realistic - no shiny Star Trek scenario, just survival on Mars, alone with only ground control (you) helping out. If you mess up, the astronaut dies. Very addictive.
