### 5/5 — Five star (But I need help)

*2026-04-11, version 1.1.6*

I love the game and it’s the second best make/play game I’ve ever played, but I need help. I put an arena code of an arena I didn’t submit and deleted, but it’s still there and still exists. I tried to replace it but the file still existed. If you could please delete this arena, I would love that. The arena code is TC9-BoB. Thanks for the support.

### 5/5 — Nice Game

*2026-04-05, version 1.1.6*

I also scrolled through reviews and saw a review from Ki Kitten which I thought was so funny cause they were a fairly popular player back in my day lol and I haven’t visited the game in awhile because after I switched from my iPad to my phone, I never bothered to download it again. It’s a really fun game and unless they added more pay to win features o remember it being a solid game! If anybody knows me, my username was like Game Creator Co. or something and I made all those Bump It! Games and a few Pokémon ones too. I think the original Bump It! I made even had three reboots I made. Overall, it was a great game! Download ittttt

### 5/5 — A Veteran’s Feedback

*2025-10-16, version 1.1.6*

Arenas is a unique and accessible way for children to learn the basics of coding. Arenas shines best in the editor and in the design; they are intuitive and impressively well-done. Much care is put in to the most frequently used features, so much so that most people don’t reflect on the amount of polish that went into them. Truly fabulous work.

Further said, there are a few mishaps and oversights here & there, but some add to the charm of the game. I and the community have a few major gripes that should be addressed, however.

> Negative conditionals are increasingly more wanted with complicated projects, though I understand the time pressure of releasing the game.

> There is a lack of unique music choices. Adding music blocks that play notes when interacted with (or triggered by rules) would be nice.

> Slingshot glitch is a powerful exploit that can beat most top-down arenas in less than 5 seconds. The premise is that forcing the player against the wall and swiping rapidly will phase them through the wall.

> Rules are very buggy, can cause stability and timing issues, and may even crash your game (there are 4 rule combinations that follow this last behaviour in different ways).

> Multiplayer doesn’t work currently.

> Cloning objects has timing issues.

Am I biased? Of course, I’ve been playing this game since 2019. But that doesn’t take away from the validity of these statements.

### 4/5 — Play arenas game

I eat concrete

### 5/5 — My opinion on this and suggestions (might take a while to read)

*2025-06-24, version 1.1.6*

MINTY PLEASE READ THIS!
I love this game I’ve been playing for about 3 or 4 years now here’s some suggestions.
1 let us delete our games
2 make multiplayer work/easier to use
3 there’s a trend that people are making their own club/group can you add that as an actual feature 
4 maybe make an add or something so people can actually find this because to many people are leaving and there’s only like 20 maximum people still active
5 maybe a tutorial because new players don’t even change their username if 1 anonymous is nice to me it’s hard to tell which anonymous to be nice to back because I can’t tell who is who
6 maybe add ranks like it’s based on how many games made and how long they been active for
7 this is one I really want to be able to have multiple accounts per device 
8 update this that’s all I really want you don’t have to use my ideas I just want something done

My username is ★😸Ki Kitten😸★ I really hope these get added

### 5/5 — plz notice me

*2025-05-31, version 1.1.6*

add for android

### 2/5 — Questionably Toxic Community

*2025-03-30, version 1.1.6*

When you download an app like this you will probably expect a nice welcoming and some nice people but no,You immediately enter the chat section and see people cussing and I put some of my time into this game and I soon quit because of how offensive and awful the community was.Late December I checked and saw the community has once again gotten mean and offensive.Devs don’t care for a main feature that being online mode and the consequences are brutal for the players still playing.The maker mode is surprisingly good.It has tons of things to unleash your creativity with as well as having rules to make your game more fun,The rules are the best feature of all (Besides most complicated rules being broken) Overall good game great execution of gameplay but online really ruins it.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-03-23, version 1.1.6*

It is great but there is lots of cyber bullying and I have some friends but if u wanna take your hard first steps be my guest

### 1/5 — Game is dead

*2025-01-19, version 1.1.6*

Game is dead, Multiplayer levels are always empty, developers forgot about it and now it’s full of people who don’t know what there doing
