### 5/5 — Throw Back

*2025-04-29, version 1.4.1*

This game captivates me now as much as it did years ago!  So happy my daughter found it for me 👍

### 2/5 — Too easy — I miss Booneshine

*2022-09-30, version 1.4.1*

Nothing like boomshine.
It’s much too easy. Loved everything about boom shine which is no longer on the App Store. The challenge, the music — miss it so much.

### 4/5 — Almost best game ever

*2021-08-26, version 1.4.1*

It’s almost the best but I think classic should have more levels and I also think that you should put the rating up so early so people can get used to it and see how they really like it

### 5/5 — A very peaceful game

*2020-08-18, version 1.4.1*

My only suggestion is to create more color themes.

### 5/5 — My got me addicted 💀

*2019-04-30, version 1.4.1*

I fuxcs wit it my G know’m sainnn hell yea. Jesus Christ!!

### 5/5 — Addicting

*2018-07-26, version 1.4.1*

This game is crazy addicting for how simple it is. There is something oddly satisfying about watching those little balls explode all over the screen. I can’t get enough!

### 5/5 — Review

*2018-04-24, version 1.4.1*

Fantastic game lots of fun keep up the good work! It would be great if there were more variations and more levels hope you guys get even more creative love this game but want more

### 1/5 — Worth the money, not worth the time.

*2014-08-23, version 1.3*

What a disappointment. The app doesn't even open. Glad to know that y'all are powered by Unity, but that wasn't worth the time it took to download.

Running on iPhone 4, iOS 6.1.3

### 4/5 — Decent

*2014-08-01, version 1.2.1*

It's a fun and addictive game, but its just the problem that I feel the bubbles (or chain reaction) go away too fast so it's harder to hit a good amount/score. Would recommend to friends.

### 4/5 — Good but could be better

*2014-05-03, version 1.2.1*

It's lots of fun, but I wish it could have more levels.
