New Update version 400 is being tested before the release on Google Play. Feel free to join the beta testing here and play a new version before others.

New version content is gradually being unlocked during the beta testing period. There are bugs and errors, but also more polished experience with new graphics and gameplay.

WARNING: All your progress will be lost during the beta. The game codebase has been redone, and there was simply no way to get the old files to work with the new system.

--- PRIVACY ---
Game can be played OFFLINE. If you have internet connection, then game will try send anonymized data about gameplay (things like "X number of people play game"). Please check out "for humans" privacy policy at thesurvivegame.com

--- IAP ---
As of September 2017: Inside the game you can purchase the "full edition" (or "wolf edition") that gets you play the game without ads (+ you get few extra perks). That's one time payment and you get to choose the price. There are no microtransactions for gems/coins or anything else to purchase. This IAP option is for those who wish to support development. You can continue playing free edition that is very close to same as the paid version.

--- PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED ---
* IN-APP PURCHASES (IAP): Only for convenient one-time full game purchase for those who wish to do so. Free version is almost the same as 'full' one. There are no gems/coins/whatnot to buy.
* FULL NETWORK ACCESS: you can play offline, but if you play online game sends stats info like "created fire using bow drill" using anonymizedId. Please see detailed & "for humans" privacy policy at the game website.
* VIEW NETWORK CONNECTIONS: To best of my understanding this checks if your device is online or offline. If offline, there's no store purchases. I try and see if I can get rid of this one.
* CONTROL VIBRATION: this can be toggled off in the settings. It's used only for in-game events (like if you catch a fish or something like that)
* OTHER WORTH MENTIONING: game stores "save game" files to your device so that you can save & continue game after playing. Should not require extra permissions though. Game does not read your phone files. It only reads game files and via settings screen you can see list of files that were created.
