Leave a Review Thomas & Friends
By today, a fun game, but lacks OG looks.
As a Thomas fan, I used to love playing this game until it turned to the new looks of “All Engines Go”; the redesigns broke me apart. I hope that someday, the characters will revert to the way they were back in earlier Thomas & Friends seasons, both prior and after to “Big World! Big Adventures!” from mid-late 2018 to early 2021. For me, I think that the Big World! Big Adventures! movie and series is a success, while All Engines Go is a failure. The redesigns from All Engines Go is plain unacceptable.Show lessLimeade1995
Please budge read this.
Hi there budge, good job on the hard work your games are amazing, but I have a few issues, for some reason no matter what I can’t restore purchases from the old version, I was a bit disappointed that they removed streamline Thomas I use to love that character, also why is the old app purchases still on the App Store, I see one for $20 ultimate bundle and $6.99 for subscription I would have gave you 5 stars if it was still $20 ultimate bundle and you keep all the stuff forever then now you can’t even keep all the stuff and pay $6.99, also can you bring back the old styles for go go Thomas and Thomas magic tracks as a button that would be amazing but all engines go are here to not restore my purchases, but besides that keep on doing the good work thank you budge I hope you read it! Bonus just for the people only! I seen a lot of complains for purchasing the ultimate bundle for $20 and losing all of it so I will help you, so go to the settings button on the bottom left, and then enter the numbers it tells you to put, then click restore purchases and you should get all your stuff back, if it doesn’t work complain about it just like what i did in this review, also works for the other budge games! Hope this was useful just like Thomas, have a choo choo day!Show lessThomasthecoolengine

Please contact us at support@budgestudios.ca. We would be happy if you could share more information about this!Bring back old update pls
The game was good but i like the old update better you could add a mode in the game where you can play the old update that would be amazing. Plus no new animations or anything all there is is new trains but the game is still good overall. Or maybe put the old game still available on the app store. Then i would have liked the game better. I HATE the new update and you have to pay for everything in the game and i don’t like the new update. Please bring back the old version. I liked the cgi better and bring back stream line Thomas pls.Show lessI don’t have a nicknamed
Unlocking engines
This game is cute and my 4 yr old loves it. My one complaint is that the free version only includes one engine and in order to play two player version you have to subscribe to a $7 per month plan. Wish you could purchase at least one more engine for a one time fee to play two player without the subscription. I’m never going to subscribe. I cannot pay a monthly fee for every app my kid likes. Wish developers would get a clue here. I see so many similar complaints in the reviews. They would probably make more money if they sold the engines and tracks separately than by subscription. They would probably get higher ratings too.Show lessBoo Subscriptions
Forcing parents to get subscription!
Got this game for my 3yr old. I thought I could still unlock the different train engines for him without paying for a stupid subscription. But no. I realize developers need to make money, but they should charge a ONE TIME purchase to at least unlock no ads. If they're that money hungry, then micro-transactions should be implemented. But parents shouldn't have to pay monthly for an app game that's for their kids. I was trying to grind my way through the game for my kid & once I maxed out Thomas for him, I soon found out, all of that was for nothing as no other engines became unlockable after Thomas was maxed out. Not to mention all of the invasive self-promoting ads & offer ads that keep getting shoved in your face before each race. Very ridiculous! I wish my child could play as other characters, but this game isn't worth a recurring payment charge.Show lessryHILLNER
I’m disappointed
I played this game when I was younger and it was really enjoyable. But, this recent update makes it no longer nostalgic as it was before. I miss the old game, bring it back. I tried the game after a while just for a sense of nostalgia and I remembered seeing the BUDGE intro all the time, it was so memorable for me to see and hear, I was also very glad to see it. Then after that I see the stupid models and as soon as I hear the new voice, the nostalgia was over, I was very disappointed about it. I am sure everyone agrees that we want the old game back, and I heard about the packs being gone. So please, bring it back to the way it was. I would rate it 1 star but I will give it two extra stars for being a nostalgic game for me.Show lessAgamerofmany
Update is heartbreaking
The new update changed all of the engines and made my son loose the progression he had made with many of his favorite ones (Hiro, Yung Bao, etc.). My 7yo was heartbroken that the engine he had come to love, identify, and adore were no more. Instead of making a new game, the developers went and destroyed a classic. Not only that, the purchase we made of $20 prior is no more and now charges $6.99 a MONTH. Loosing loyal Thomas fans everyday . The trains are simply crap now and have lost the charm they once had. Whomever was responsible for this “rebrand” should be replaced.Show lessAKMD13

Hello! Please contact us at support@budgestudios.ca. We would be happy if you could share more information about this!Fun, Just add Animations and Personality to the game.
Hi, I LOVE this game. It’s full of fun. But my only problem with the game is when you look at an engines face. (Thomas for example.) His face looks like a image. Make him blink. And when it says Thomas VS Diesel or something. Make them look at each other. Their look should match their personalities in the show. Thomas should be looking happy to be there. Diesel looking too confident and having a lot of pride for himself. On the map when you race if Diesel is in front of Thomas, his icon will wink like “we’ll get in front somehow!” And if Thomas is in front of Diesel, Diesel’s icon will get mad, SUPER MAD. And during a race make the engines face based on where they are. If an engine is getting close to the engine in first place they should be confident, the other engine being scared looking at them. Or just looking at the other engine.

We're happy to hear you're enjoying the game and thank you for sharing your feedback! If you have any other comments please contact support@budgestudios.caPlease bring back the old version
My 6-year-old hates the new update. He cried due to all the changes. He wants the old version back. We missed the old styles and the old gentleman’s voice. Some trains are also gone like Yong Bao. To make it worse, all the packs we purchased are gone too. (We unlocked everything.) I tried restoring our purchase but it didn’t work. This update is wrong and ridiculous on so many levels. Please at least give us the option to choose which styles/skins and voice we prefer. Let us choose what we want! Please don’t ruin a perfectly fine game. Thankfully, I turned “automatic updates” off on one device. So we can still play the old version on that device. Thank you for reading.Show lessbenjasmine

Hello! Please contact us at support@budgestudios.ca. We would be happy if you could share more information about this. We'd be happy to help!Rather Disappointing Now
As a game that has been untouched for years now, it finally gained new content, but it was not good at all. Old models replaced with reboot models, a change NO ONE asked for. The only decent and playable thomas game, now given up to the plague of the All Engines Go reboot, which is already taking over so many other things too. Back with the former version of this game, I bought the Edward and Ryan pack, along with the Gordon and Spencer castle pack, and the Diesel and Diesel 10 pack. All of that is gone now, and it feel like such a waste, all stolen even. Completely uncalled for, and now the state of this game has alienated most of its audience. Instead of getting a decent update that would’ve made fans happy, we were given a very disappointing surprise. Whoever was in charge of this decision, I don’t know you and I don’t know what you were trying to achieve, but this will get you NOWHERE. This is not how to make fans happy in order for them to continuing playing your game. You’ve heard everyone already, change it back, or refund money. After this, I am deleting this game since it has no use to me anymore and it’s nothing like it was before. What a shame.Show lessRonWardJohn
