  • Leaderboard is fake and you have to watch ads after paying to remove them

    Made it to top of leaderboard in cpl of days, then didn’t play for like a week and was still #1… while after every single run all other names on the leaderboard were completely different. Which means it’s fake and the game has no point.

    Also paid to remove ads but am FORCED to watch ads if I want to keep upgrading… like, I spend coins to upgrade distance a few times and then the only way I can continue upgrading is to watch an ad.

    Game is fun but don’t waste your time.

  • Slowed phone, ads

    So overall the game itself is fun and easy to play. I understand ads in a free game are meant to drive revenue, but making them every level and every click is very annoying not to mention the ads are the processes that are most likely slowing the app and my phone. The game would not run smoothly and would glitch out and hesitate making it unplayable. Closing the app only proved difficult when the slowness was transferred to my iPhone 13 which took forever to close the app. I am guessing the ads are preloading so that they can be easily played when the level is done.

  • Definitely has potential

    First things first. The games good. It’s my go to turn off my brain for a whole game. It’s a concept that’s been done many times but for good reason, it’s fun and it works.

    HOWEVER, there’s a bunch wrong here.

    1. Ads. I get it. It’s a free game, you guys have to make some revenue. But even when paying for the no ads version, there are still ads, GRANTED they’re optional and come with rewards. Bottom line here, if you see yourself sinking any kind of time into this game, go ahead and pay the two bucks for the add free version.

    2. The leaderboard. This is the second issue I came across and probably the one that upsets me the most. The leaderboard is a complete sham and lie. Don’t pay any attention too it. Honestly that’s all I’m going to say about it because this could turn into a VERY long rant about deceiving your customer base, but I won’t get into that.

    3. It’s buggy. There have been multiple occasions where I’ve simply just fallen through the map out of no where and had to restart my jump. Beware! If you get more than around 4400 balls, it will completely brick the game and all of your balls on screen will disappear.

    Bottom line: it’s worth the 2 bucks for the ad free version, but needs some serious back end work and fixes for me to continue to enjoy it.

  • All voodoo games are a waste of time

    There have been many many voodoo games I’ve enjoyed over the years. Especially because until recently they work on airplane mode, which when your underwater on a submarine is a necessity. The last 10 or so voodoo games I’ve played are nothing but ad baits and you are REQUIRED to have an internet connection so you can’t even enjoy the game offline with no ads. 0 stars if possible, and I will never download another game from this company. To voodoo staff and all other companies, I get it. Ads are essential for games, but NOT essential every 5 seconds, after every level, and should NEVER be forced ads. Ads are meant for bonuses, increased currency, extra life, a do-over, things like that. STOP MAKING AD BAIT GAMES!!! I know it won’t because companies these days (voodoo included) doesn’t care about the people that enjoy the apps, all they care about is money. Stop downloading their games and feeding into what they want. The era of ad based games needs to die horribly.

  • Fun, But forced to watch Ads (even after purchasing no ads)

    TL;DR: Purchasing “No Ads” should exempt you from all in game advertising. VooDoo has found a loop hole that exploits even paying customers and forces them to watch full 30 second ads regularly just to enjoy the game.

    The Game is fun, I play all the time. The problem is that the game forces you to watch full 30 second adds if you want to upgrade your amount of balls, and upgrade your final jump boost (which is what makes the game fun).

    Every 5 percentage points you upgrade with in game coins that you earn from jumps, it then says “free” to upgrade (every 5 upgrades), and you are forced to hit this button for the upgrade and watch an entire 30 second ad. It’s literally robbing the customer and exploiting the no ads loop hole. This is so messed up.

  • Needs more of a realistic challenge

    Maybe it’s just me, but I’ve been in the #1 spot on the scoreboard for a few days now due to how much I play this. But alas.. the scoreboard is bugged to where it only shows from the #3 spot downwards. So I don’t even see my #1 spot! Also, not sure how it’s even possible to hit the top 1% on a run - I’ve gotten fevers on the last jump available on the gold run, with 1000+ balls collected, and I can barely reach the top 10%. How am I #1 worldwide and I can’t even get to the top 1% of runs! Seems a little planned to me.

    My boost is now at 125%, and my starting ball count is 110. But still can’t interact with the leaderboard to see my #1 spot :(

  • Broke the game…

    Disappointing that even buying the ad free version, you still have to watch ads to unlock the basic extras. Well I got this game for a time passer, which it is. But I’m at like level 700 and have a boost of 250% and I guess I won cause after traveling a certain distance after the boost, the balls drop below the level where the water is and it kills you so you have to restart. Wish the map was a bit longer, kinda feels like a waste of money now that I can’t play it anymore.

  • Too many ads, too many bugs

    I got into this game for a day and a half and worked through the levels. I liked the skill + randomness of the game. Unfortunately, I was looking to achieve the final stages, but whenever you get to the 1% benchmark, your balls fall through the board into the water. Super frustrating. Also you can watch an add for additional balls, but it’s actually NOT in ADDITION. The imagery would lead you to believe you get 200 in addition to the number you’ve earned, but after watching the ad and seeing my ball number go down, I realized the glitch.

    Don’t waste your time.

  • Ad app is all

    Ever since Apple allowed Ads to be used in games, the quality of apps on Apple Store has declined. This game is simply an Ad app with a game ton play in between ads.
    The game is poorly optimized (causes my phone to overheat). The developers created a money grab ad app.
    The only reason I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 star is that I thought the simplicity of the games physics in regarding to gravity and such is enjoyable.
    Unfortunately either the game is plagued with bugs that cause my entire phone to become unresponsive or the app is malware and the Apple Store needs to immediately remove the app before it causes more harm

  • Ads, Laggy, and punishes players for getting too good

    The game was very addictive at the start, it has a nice game loop, however it started getting grating with how frequent ads were. In addition, the ads made the game lag horribly and freeze quite often. To top it all off, the game punishes you for going far enough, as when I finally reach my high score(a little past the “top 10%” marker on the meter) I just clip through the floor, am asked to “revive” by watching an ad, and when I do I instantly clip through again and am given the exact same prompt, proving that the game’s intentionally designed to not only deceive you into watching more ads but also punish you for getting good enough to reach such a far distance that they didn’t even bother coding the last stretch of course to have a collision box
