Our take

Slime Rancher earned its fans on PC by being a cozy, low-stress sim with real charm in its creature design, and Playdigious’s port doesn’t cut corners on that identity. The install numbers just haven’t caught up to the quality yet, likely a pricing or discovery problem rather than a game problem.

About Slime Rancher

Slime Rancher is now live!

Slime Rancher is the tale of Beatrix LeBeau, a plucky young rancher who sets out for a life a thousand light years away from Earth on the ‘Far, Far Range,’ where she tries her hand at making a living wrangling slimes.

[Explore a vibrant alien world, capture and tend to adorable slimes, and get a once-abandoned ranch back on track!]

*** FEATURES ***

  • Play as a curious and adventurous woman trying to get her newly acquired slime ranch back on track.

  • Follow Bea’s journey at your own pace with 3 different game modes! Adventure Mode lets you experience the trials and tribulations of ranching life as it really is. But you can also play Casual Mode for a cozier experience, or challenge yourself to succeed faster with Rush Mode!

What we like

  • Beloved indie sim faithfully brought to touch controls
  • Distinct, colorful world with genuine creature variety and hybrid slimes
  • Relaxed, non-punishing pace suited to a ranching sim rather than a grind

Watch out for

  • Install count is tiny compared to its quality, the mobile audience hasn't found it yet
  • Resource-heavy 3D exploration can be a rough fit for lower-end phones
Verdict: A genuinely lovely game that deserves a much bigger mobile audience than it currently has.
