In My Time at Portia, you travel to the enchanting town of Portia to start a new life. Inheriting your father’s workshop, you must fulfill commissions, grow crops, raise animals, and befriend the quirky inhabitants of this post-apocalyptic land. Armed with your father's old journal and workbench, you must gather, mine, and craft your way to being named the number one workshop in Portia.

Dinsun Expert Review

Our Expert Score

94/100

My Time at Portia on mobile is a technical marvel. Bringing a massive 3D open-world RPG from PC to mobile is no small feat, and they’ve managed to keep almost all the charm and depth intact. The touch controls are surprisingly intuitive, especially the building and gathering mechanics which can sometimes be finicky in this genre.

The gameplay loop is pure 'Stardew Valley meets Breath of the Wild.' You’re building up your workshop, farming, exploring ruins, and befriending (or romancing) the citizens of Portia. It’s a game you can sink 100 hours into and still find new things to do. The vibrant art style looks gorgeous on a high-res mobile screen. It’s easily one of the best life-sims available on the App Store.

A very underrated hidden gem
Thu Sep 09 2021 Skyame14

I’ve been playing ever since I got it. If you like gather, craft, and build type of RPG, this game is for you, there’s dungeons, interactions with NPCs, it has it all. I have dozens of hours into this game, I finished all storyline and all side-quests. Many parts of the story remain unanswered, and several assembled items serve no purpose other than decoration, like The Dragonfly and Friend-Ship. The ending is kinda sloppy and rushed, and game crashes are annoying on iPhone 11 Pro Max, even on low settings, so many times I had to restart the day or a dungeon because it didn’t auto-save before crashing. Children don’t grow? That’s pointless. Going into browser to check the Wiki for answer often crashes the game. I heard about My Time at Sandrock as a sequel, I hope it gets released for IOS, and fixes the issues with Portia, this game is enjoyable on the go as mobile, I can’t see myself playing it on PC. Overall, one of the best, but it has it’s issues. Should more content be released, and issues fixed, I may give this a 5 Star.

Glitch
Tue Aug 17 2021 Jereamorris

Read about the crashes - haven’t had that problem yet. A short tutorial screen in the ruins would be nice - to tell you that’s it’s not just an empty room - you have to swing a pickaxe and dig through like Minecraft. But the reason I’m done with it is I have to start all over due to a glitch. I created a couple storage boxes while my inventory was full and didn’t realize it. I look for them and they’re not there. I look at the crafting screen and it says there are 3 in my backpack. They’re not there. I craft another one after emptying my inventory but it must’ve stacked with the imaginary 3 in my backpack. Edit: I found out about the 2 hot bars after I started over. I feel like it should have been more obvious. I found out by mistake. Game is very fun and engaging. It gets a little slow on my iPhone X, but hasn’t crashed yet and I have about 5 hours on the game.

Almost Perfect

This past winter I found this gem of a game on the Nintendo Eshop and I had loved every second of the game. However, the switch version had certain elements missing that the pc version had. I have a Mac and don’t really have the cash to invest in a gaming pc. However the mobile version has it all and looks stunning on my iPad Pro. The only complaint is there are a few problems if you want to use a controller. You can’t navigate item menus or advance NPC dialogue using a controller. Of course with that being said, some things are way easier with touch screen like placing parts on your assembly station is just a click. This would have five stars if I could play it completely with a controller. I highly recommend this game! Can’t wait for sand rock!

#1 Problem please fix or I will give it one star
Thu Aug 05 2021 Daisymay8807

I played this game on xbox and then I bought it on the switch and I haven’t played it on the switch at all. So many other games on the switch and so when my husband told me they were bringing it to IOS I was SSSSSOOOOOOOOOO excited! Been playing it since I bought it the day it came out. I was doing really good and suddenly I was going into the ruins like its telling me to and it freezes on me and gives me the loading screen and I hear what its supposed to sound like in the ruins but I don’t see my character and just the loading screen. Please fix! ( updated it after I did this review and thought I would try it out to see if it would let me into the ruins and it still gives me the loading screen)

Just One Small Thing
Fri Jan 07 2022 Joyboy6991

I started playing this game on PC and it consumes my every hour not at work so I naturally got the mobile version cause why not also play at work? My love for this game is wild; however, coming from PC the controls have their differences and while some of them are better then PC I can’t seem to get my Razer Kishi to work completely with the game. I can’t find any information on it online so I’m at a crossroads. Everything works with the Kishi except for menus. There’s no cursor or anything which means I have to touch the actual screen to select/do anything in the menus. Would honestly just like to see some better support for the Razer controller but other then that the app is just as amazing as the pc version!

One of my favorite games

This game has just about everything that I was searching for when craving my Harvest Moon days. The only problem I am having with this game on mobile/iPad is that it crashes so often and I find myself having to repeat quests and/or tasks way too often. Kind of puts a drag on the whole game. One moment, I am immersed and having a blast while my day goes by faster than I can imagine. The next moment I am staring at the wallpaper on the Home Screen of my phone/iPad and I realize how much progress I’ve probably just lost. Then I turn off my screen and take a break for a couple days for my sanity. It’s a shame because all I want to do is sink multiple hours into this game.

Unique
Fri Mar 11 2022 AJK05

This game is very unique in the way that you can interact with the other characters and most objects. I love how interactive the game is just wish that your partner and kids were a little more interactive, it would also be better if the kids aged and more of the other characters could have children so they could go to the school and use more of the furniture in the stores. Also there is a pretty bad glitch when your playing where the app just closes randomly or whenever there is a cut screen and it takes you back to the last save. This game would be even better if it were more of a free play once you finish the main storylines.

Best game ever

Crafting is a major part of farming sims. Often the process isn't optimized to save time, rather it mimics the hard work of real-life work.
