### 4/5 — Amazing game but could use competitive aspects

*2026-08-26, version 1.44.0*

I absolutely love this game and getting high scores to compare with friends is the best part. The game would be so much better if there was a more direct way to compare scores like a multiplayer mode or in game scoreboards to compete with friends

### 4/5 — Tiny issue

*2026-07-05, version 1.42.3*

This game is great, it’s fun and addictive and the customisations in this are great are very well designed , although recently I’ve encountered a bug when an add pops up. Usually when a certain time has passed when you watch the add the big x button to exit the ad appears, not in this case. Because of this tiny bug I can’t get out of the ad and I have to get out of the app and refresh and reload the whole app. Apart from that this game is awesome.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2026-06-08, version 1.41.0*

Overall great game with an excellent gimmick but just one problem as a mobile player I found it very hard to move around so maybe you could add an option for bigger controls.  pls :D

### 4/5 — Awesome game

*2026-04-06, version 1.39.0*

I personally think that this game is really fun and I wish I was better at it it. Unfortunately, I play on mobile so it’s harder😅. I suggest that you add a story mode. It’s such an awesome game and it would be even cooler with  one.
Otherwise, I have no complaints. Nice game nice graphics nice customization features.

### 4/5 — Pleased 😌

*2026-03-26, version 1.39.0*

I love this game so much. Thanks for not ruining with bad updates like every other game 🙄

### 5/5 — SAWBLADES Is Great!

*2026-03-21, version 1.39.0*

A Slight Chance of SAWBLADES is amazing! It has great music, And the add placement is (honestly) great!

The gameplay is fun and addicting and the ticket system is fun

All in all it’s the best free game out there. Yes. I jut said that.

### 5/5 — SAWBLADES🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓

*2026-03-19, version 1.39.0*

Really fun game with very few little adds, finally a developer that isn’t greedy at all. I played this with my friend a couple days ago and was very addicting hope you make more games like these in the future .
Btw can you add some more SAWBLADES plz :)

### 5/5 — What a find!

*2026-03-09, version 1.38.0*

I was looking for some random games and stumbled upon this gem. I used to play this for free and I figured that 2 bucks is pretty cheap for such a game. The replay ability is great and the music and design is really great

The whole game is good fun and even for free it’s awesome!

### 5/5 — THE BEST GAMES

*2026-02-20, version 1.38.0*

I really like the game but i wish there sets

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2026-02-15, version 1.37.0*

I love this game I can play it for hours and not get bored it amazing

### 4/5 — fun but mobility is mid

*2026-02-03, version 1.37.0*

pretty good way to pass time but i have an idea for a neat feature; basically when you get 3 sawblades within a second you unlock a triple jump, basically to allow for more mobility. or you can spend points to unlock features like faster speed or an extra jump

### 4/5 — Top ten mobile games

*2026-02-03, version 1.37.0*

The last time I reviewed this game was in 2023 and now seeing the game again I’ve come to appreciate it even more. This game is the definition of a hidden gem there’s so much work and love put into this game and eve with it being so simple it is so addictive and insanely fun. I recommend this game to everyone I know and it’s become apart of my daily doings since I play it whenever I’m bored. I don’t have any complaints with the game and all I hope is that we continue to see new characters, SAWBLADES, and maps. But as a suggestion, for a new game mode i think that it would be cool to see multiplayer be implemented into this game wether it be co op or someone controls the SAWBLADES whilst the other controls the player but I think it would beneficial since this game is now in steam.overall this game is a must have since it is free and it is, in my opinion, one of the best mobile games out there.

### 5/5 — THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE GAME

*2026-02-02, version 1.37.0*

After only 30 minutes of playing the game I loved it immensely it’s felt like a high quality game made with love I can definitely see the love poured into the game I hope you make new games I would love to play them

### 4/5 — Slight issue

*2026-01-29, version 1.37.0*

So I’m a former Dadish player, and have gotten all Game Center achievements on Dadish 4, but the controls are clunky, it either does not respond, or randomly switches directions, and it’s only the arrow buttons, the jump is fine, just the movement.

### 5/5 — One Of My Fav Games:)

*2026-01-23, version 1.36.0*

This game has ads, but it’s not as frequent as other games. Just put it in airplane mode to get rid of the ads. I’m kind of addicted to this game, and it’s so fun to collect all the little character, backgrounds, and even the little SAWBLADES as well. My favorite character is the potato man. Just download and go have fun playing the game:)

I love the music and the sound affects and the game is simple but challenging and I love it

### 5/5 — AMAZING GAME :D

*2026-01-16, version 1.36.0*

This game is an amazing game. From its gameplay, to music and art style, THIS IS THE BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED AND I HAVE PLAYED ALOT OF GAMES. This is a true gem in the AppStore. And to Yong Kian Chin, a sequel would be the best thing in the world👍

### 5/5 — Amazing

### 1/5 — Uuuugh

*2026-06-21, version 1.42.2*

I hate this game but love it because it's tooo haaard and I can't even get past 6 because it's so hard like, make it easier bro it's to hard

### 1/5 — Too hard

*2025-11-26, version 1.35.0*

Too hard

### 1/5 — An exercise in frustration

*2025-10-21, version 1.34.0*

Every couple of runs I just end up erroneously jumping because my fingers narrowly slipped off the controls. This is after adjusting the buttons to be the largest they can. The control scheme is beyond frustrating. After 5 minutes of play I wanted to throw my phone.

### 1/5 — button hitboxes

*2025-09-24, version 1.33.0*

the hitboxes of the buttons are way to close making it impossible to click the right button you want often causing you to stop moving mid air or move instead if jumping killing you easily making it it extremely hard to get past 10 score

### 1/5 — Who wants to play a game that is impossible??

*2025-07-20, version 1.31.0*

Awful rage bait

### 1/5 — Gaslight

*2025-07-15, version 1.30.0*

They introduced ads and made the experience worse in the recent update after Inpaid for the app

### 1/5 — Dookie

*2024-12-28, version 1.24.0*

It looks like if you recorded yourself taking a dump then told chat gpt to make a game out of it.

### 1/5 — Long in game ads

*2024-01-03, version 1.14.0*

Lots of long in game ads which weren’t warned of in the initial description

### 1/5 — Horrible touch buttons

*2023-02-16, version 1.2.0*

The onscreen buttons are somehow too small even on the largest iphone. Makes tge game unplayable and unenjoyable, which stinks because it has charm

### 1/5 — Not a good game

*2023-02-06, version 1.1.0*

I’m not even trying to bash the developers. I like that the game is a unique idea and has older graphics but that is the only positive stuff I can say. You have to practice a lot to get good at this game and their isn’t a point to tbh. Their is only a regular game mode with limited characters and their is nothing fun to make me want to actually get good at the game. It’s just another flappy bird type of game. Nothing special about this game right now

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-05-13, version 1.40.0*

Genuinely a fun game. I do wish that you could have more music options, because the same music over and over can get a little much (don’t get me wrong the music is still great). Maybe you could buy new music in the shop or something

### 5/5 — Very fun game that takes a while to master

*2026-05-12, version 1.40.0*
