### 1/5 — CRAP👎

*2020-06-02*

This game is horrible literally this game is very disappointing because it wasn’t letting me move I hate this game

### 2/5 — Great port terrible controls

*2024-07-29*

This would be the perfect way to play this game but the controls are so unresponsive it often takes 4 or 5 taps on a key just to move or turn. It feels like you’re playing a laggy emulator in a browser on dial up and not an app running on your phone

### 2/5 — Not responsive

*2022-12-25*

Love this old classic and in many ways it is taking me right back to my early gaming years. Problem with the app (for me at least) is the lack of responsiveness when trying to move around. Playing on an iphone13 and using the three directional buttons but when I try to turn it often doesn’t respond, resulting in being caught all too easily.
Not sure if it’s just me or is anyone else experiencing this?
Would be 5 stars if more responsive…

### 3/5 — Eh I guess it’s good

*2024-12-30*

Now I love 3D monster maze so I was excited but this is the best I can get though but noice work. The only thing I just want if the controls to stop covering the messages it makes it more harder

### 4/5 — Rex lies in wait too often but apart from that a very accurate port

*2018-08-28*

Love it but when Rex has seen you he doesn’t then lie in wait straight after! Have him looking for you most of the time and it’ll be about right.

**Developer response:** Hi thanks for the review. I worked very hard to recreate the original logic for Rex. The design of the maze can sometimes lead Rex to lie in wait when you might not expect it. He lies in wait when he can't move directly towards you.

### 4/5 — Scary game with one flaw

*2015-06-09*

It is a great game and very scary. You wouldn't think text at the bottom of the screen would rival other modern horror games but it does. 

The only thing bad is the control. It is way harder to control than the original.

### 5/5 — Amazing! Also…

*2021-09-04*

This game is amazing! I saw it in the evolution of horror games so I decided to try it. It’s pretty good! I think it would be really fun if you made a 3D version. I know it’s 3D monster maze but it was made back in 1983 so it’s not really 3D anymore. Again I think it would be fun to have a 3D version so I think you should consider it. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Great game but a little glitchy

*2020-04-09*

This game is actually kinda scary and is worth the 1 dollar. When I found this game I was impressed I thought that this game was lame. But when I learned how old the game is I was flabbergasted. The best part about it is where the T-Rex comes near you, it was a terrifying and amazing event. The only problem I can think of is the controls and glitchy ness but maybe it was in the original. 

The mobile version is great next to it’s big brother. GOOD WORK!!!!!!!

**Developer response:** Hi and thanks for the feedback!

The game is designed to be an authentic re-creation of the original. If you've never seen or played the original I'm sure it would look quite odd!

### 5/5 — Was my favorite game those days

*2019-01-08*

And I still got my original ZX81. However, much easier to play using the iPhone XS 
Thanks!

### 5/5 — Das beste ZX-81 Spiel ist zurück

*2016-10-31*

Sehr gut gemacht. Spielt sich am besten hochkant.

### 5/5 — original gamer

*2016-05-02*

Very, very good. Only slight point I can make is that controls are a little sluggish. 1K chess or Flight simulator anyone !

### 5/5 — OMG! 3D Monster Maze!

*2015-11-28*

How amazing is this; 3D monster maze is available on iPad!?
Thank you for keeping Rex alive after all these long years. Who'd ever believe it?
I'm 12 years old again. Fantastic!

### 5/5 — Brilliant!!!

*2015-10-23*

Just as terrifying as the original was 34 (or 65 million) years ago!

The optional enhanced version is a nice touch.

The controls are a little unresponsive, but I guess that just adds to the authenticity of the ZX81 experience.

Can you do Counter Attack next? ;-)

### 5/5 — Brilliant, thank you.

*2015-06-23*

The first computer game I ever played and this is a perfect recreation, superb! Well done and thank you.

### 5/5 — Loving it!

*2015-06-15*

This game is great. I'm too young to have played the original but I can clearly see why it was such a favourite for the ZX81. I will look out for future releases by this fantastic game developer.

### 5/5 — Monster Maze

*2015-06-07*

Wow!! Transported me back to my youth. A perfect reproduction of the original game. Enjoy.
