Planet ÆRTH is toast. Literally shattered into space CHONKS. Thanks to the MOONLINGS… tiny chaos gremlins who thought crashing their MOON into the ÆRTHLINGS’ home planet was a “good idea.” The ÆRTHLINGS had to go into deep cubernation just to ensure their survival, but the destruction was so violent they were ejected from their world and into ours. In the aftermath of the MOONCRASH, the ÆRTHLINGS, stranded on EARTH, are scattered across our world, waiting to be returned to ÆRTH and awakened from cubernation. Now it’s up to you to put ÆRTH back together and bring all the ÆRTHLINGS back home while defending against those pesky MOONLINGS. • Each of the ÆRTHLINGS has their own unique attack and MUTÆTION tree. • Collect and scan all 24 ÆRTHLINGS Genesis Collection NFC-enabled figurines (available at Amazon, Big W, EB Games, Target and more!) • Can you find the four limited edition Seed Series I figurines? Available at special launch events from 28 September. • Trade ÆRTHLINGS figurines with your friends to expand your collection and earn MUTÆTION points to evolve your ÆRTHLINGS. Starting off on a CHONK of ÆRTH, you’ll explore, expand, chop, smash, and craft your way through survival challenges, and rescue stranded ÆRTHLINGS who may or may not remember what happened to their beloved home planet. Meanwhile, the MOONLINGS keep showing up to steal the ÆRTHLINGS’ gear, cause trouble, and generally be the annoying little trolls they are. Game Features: • Build your collection of ÆRTHLINGS by trading the NFC-enabled figurines with friends. • Explore, Expand & Survive while putting the pieces of ÆRTH back together. Discover a world of diverse biomes full of surprises. • Craft Gear & Build Tools to fix CHONKS of ÆRTH (and defend your gear). • Outsmart the MOONLINGS. They’re sneaky, loud, and not half as clever as they think they are. • The epic story of saving a planet has never been this ridiculous. ÆRTH is broken. The heroes are… underdogs. The enemies are ridiculous little menaces. And somehow, YOU are in charge of fixing it all. Download ÆRTHLINGS and prove you’ve got what it takes to rebuild ÆRTH (and maybe troll some MOONLINGS along the way). A network connection is required.

Hidden gem with true potential
Apr 10
a nerdy reviews
I just started playing Aerthlings and I’m honestly impressed. The art style is clean, the world feels fun to explore, and the progression system with expanding your island and collecting creatures is really satisfying. It already gives that creative adventure vibe that a lot of games try to hit but don’t. What stands out is that there are no ads or annoying pop-ups, and the game actually feels fair. Combat is interesting I see a potential for more there as-well, and the resource system tied to your creatures is a really smart idea. I also like the direction with trading and the visitor system ( co op when ) it feels like there’s a lot of potential for multiplayer and a player driven economy in the future, which could make this game really stand out. A few things I’d love to see added or improved: More depth in trading ( rarity value, meaningful exchanges, maybe a marketplace).Co-op or multiplayer features using the visitor system.Continued expansion of creatures, areas, and abilities so progression stays fresh.Keeping the game fair and not lean into pay to win systems. Specially with the scan/shop features. Overall, this feels like a hidden gem with a lot of potential. I’m excited to see where the developers take it and will definitely keep playing.

We’re really glad to hear that your first experience with ÆRTHLINGS has been a positive one. It’s especially great to hear that the game feels fair, since that’s something we’ve been very intentional about from the start! Your feedback on trading, multiplayer, and long-term progression is incredibly valuable too. We’ll be sharing more as these features evolve, and we’re excited to have you along for the journey. Thanks again for your support because it really helps motivate the team to keep building and improving!

I’ve honestly grown old of all phone games but when I seen this, I thought lemme give it a try. Without playing the game, it just seems like a game for little kids. When you start up, it’s actually very well made and detailed. If you’re older and think “oh this is just another child’s game”…….. I’m 29 years old with a daughter and I’m very much enjoying it. So much I’ve even backed their company on kickstarter. When you can purchase these in physical stores, it’ll be like pokemon. I will definitely be playing this game a lot. This will be the next big thing 100%. Highly recommend.

Team cares more about selling more figures over fixing their game

I was really pumped about this game. I purchased 6 aerthlings to support the team for putting together a cool idea… the problem is that I scanned in my new figures and started playing the game only to realize that no enemies were spawning into game. This effectively makes the game unplayable because you can’t collect needed resources. I’ve been waiting well over a month and have been trying to communicate with the team in good faith while they tried to stabilize the game. Several updates came and the game was still not working for me and each time the team would say “we’re working on the fix”. Meanwhile the team is continuously rolling out marketing for new kickstarters and figures to make more money while I sat and waited patiently. The team made it abundantly clear that they don’t have any intention of prioritizing the fix and it seems like they are putting profit over their customers and gameplay. 🤷‍♂️I wanted to like this game but I can’t even play it.

We're truly sorry this issue has prevented you from fully enjoying ÆRTHLINGS. We completely understand how frustrating it is to wait for a fix, especially when you've been patiently working with our team.Your reports have been actively investigated, and we've continued tracking your case while working on improvements related to the MOONLING respawn issue. We also understand why seeing new announcements while you're still affected by this bug can be disappointing.A potential fix has recently completed development review and will undergo testing. While we don't want to promise an exact release date until that process is complete, progress is being made and your reports have helped us investigate the issue!Thank you for taking the time to report the problem and stay in touch with our support team.

Producers I love to be like different modes like worlds. One mode would be apocalyptic mode. The other one would be the normal mode that you have for the game right now. but in apocalyptic one you’d have to build like a bunker and the moon creatures will try and break that fortress to get to you. You have to gather resources without without running into all of them and there will be five times as more earthlings than normal honestly for competitive players, I would think that would be really fun. Also the moon creature thing my voice to text didn’t work on that.

Duly noted! Thanks so much for the rocking review and an even awesome feedback. Happy gaming!
