### 4/5 — I love the game, but no sound?

*2020-10-05, version 1.3*

I love everything about the game itself, but game sounds and music doesn’t seem to be working on my iPhone 11.  It would really be a 5 star game to me, I will be sure to change the score if it gets worked out.

### 4/5 — Add support for larger screens for perfect 5 stars!

*2020-05-26, version 1.2*

Awesome game! Love it! Would give 5 stars but the game doesn’t format for larger iPhone screens such as iPhone XSMax and 11ProMax. Please update to support larger screens! Please!

### 5/5 — Space Invaders and Arkinoid!!?!?

*2019-07-16, version 1.2*

This game is supreme! I don’t play many games on my phone or tablet, but I can’t help but to love this one! It combines two of Taito’s best into one superb game! 

The only thing I wish this game had was more levels. Other than that, WOW!

### 3/5 — Great game but needs iPhone X support!!!

*2019-02-02, version 1.2*

Love this game but sad that the publisher has not bothered to put out an update for iPhone X sized phones. Please do and it will be 5-stars!

### 4/5 — Mine wouldn't work either but

*2019-01-20, version 1.2*

Mine wouldn't work either just trying to load,I deleted it and reinstalled and now it's playing fine

### 5/5 — Great fun

*2019-01-06, version 1.2*

I’m enjoying this game. I’m in the 60s levels now and it’s getting harder now. For the price I paid very good value.
I would recommend this game if you like break out and space invaders both.

### 5/5 — Updated Retro Gaming Fun!

*2018-12-17, version 1.2*

This game is worth the price. There is a wealth of content! It is challenging and fun. It doesn’t harass you to collect tokens for progression. Play at your leisure and enjoy yourself.

### 5/5 — Sleeper Hit!

*2018-09-30, version 1.2*

One of the best mobile games out there! Gets better the deeper you get through the levels.

### 5/5 — Fantastic - I keep bugging my wife to download

*2018-09-02, version 1.2*

It’s so good that I actually took the time to write a review....that that never happens. Great game. Only a level or two that’s almost 100% luck to complete making it difficult in spots, but then the game shifts back to skill. Tons of play styles due to the character power up options. I deleted my 100% game just to start it all over again!

### 5/5 — Great gameplay

*2018-08-25, version 1.2*

Great game without IAP how all games should be !!

### 1/5 — Paid-for App which doesn’t work anymore (and still doesn't on a 13 Pro Max), not recommended!!

*2021-10-28, version 1.3*

Used to work, but stopped working once iOS was updated for the year. Don’t support these type of developers. Highly NOT recommended. Update - 3 November 18- Still not working with iOS 12. Update - 28 October 2021 - Still not working on a iPhone 13 Pro Max iOS 15.1 !  Game just loads up and stays at the spiny wheel status screen with music playing on endless loop, even with deletion and reinstall action. DO NOT PURCHASE!!!

### 1/5 — Had this game for years and quit working

*2021-02-19, version 1.3*

I paid for this game a few years ago and now it doesn’t work. Stays in loading screen.

### 1/5 — Game does not start

*2020-12-27, version 1.3*

Stuck on loading screen on latest version.

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2020-09-23, version 1.3*

I’m stuck in a infinite loading screen and can’t play anymore. It used to work fine until now.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2020-01-07, version 1.2*

After downloading game it requires an update.  I can never get it to go past 52%.  Keeps telling me there is a problem with my connection when that is clearly not the case.  I have deleted and reinstalled per their instructions and have reset my iPad to no avail.  Looking for options or please refund my money.

### 1/5 — Still no iPhone X support

*2019-06-03, version 1.2*

Can't believe Apple is featuring games that don't have X screen resolution. Don't want to play with black borders. Money wasted.

### 2/5 — please fix this game

*2022-02-08, version 1.3*

can’t open the game, it sticks at a spinning wheel upon launch after a recent ios update. it’s a great game! please fix it to resolve this issue

### 2/5 — It’s ok, but I just want Arkanoid!

*2021-02-28, version 1.3*

This is an interesting concept, well programmed game.  Most levels are fun, worth paying for.  But, I think Arkanoid is the best arcade game ever, so why can we not play it on modern devices?  It used to be available on Apple, many years ago, but then it stopped working, and no longer exists. Why?!? I would buy it easily for $15-20, especially if it included all versions. And don’t stop there. Can someone please put out legal versions of early 80’s video games??  I know there can be some license issues, but come on, today’s games are weak, we want quarter after quarter pumping fun!!

### 2/5 — I was really excited

*2019-11-26, version 1.2*

But to be honest the game although well made and imaginative increases the fun of space invader by 20% and destroyed the fun of ark by 90%. Considering that by default I like ark more, this game really was never going to be up my alley.

### 3/5 — Some levels are too hard

*2020-07-03, version 1.2*

Level 34 is just too hard.  I’ve been stuck for weeks.  Loved the game until I got stuck.

### 5/5 — CREATIVE, ORIGINAL, BRILLIANT!!!

*2022-10-22, version 1.3*

I cannot write enough superlatives to describe this game. A lot of love and attention to detail went into creating this game. This game is the very definition of QUALITY! It combines the gameplay of two games, but is so much more than that. UPDATE: I JUST FINISHED LEVEL 150!!! So I’m done with the game in NORMAL MODE!! So much fun!!! Most levels you have to play multiple times to CLEAR STAGE!! But it’s not frustrating. IT IS A BLAST!!! Now HARD MODE adds new twists to the game! I’ve completed 5 stages in HARD MODE. I’m not sure if it’s going to be possible to clears all stages in HARD MODE, but we’ll see. And then there’s a SURVIVAL MODE!! This is the best $5 I’ve spent in a long time. GET THIS GAME NOW, and thank the developers later. You’ll love this game. It’s a TRUE GEM!

### 5/5 — Sharp and Gorgeous

*2021-07-15, version 1.3*

This game is very well done! Makes me feel like I just slipped a quarter into my iPhone, arcade goodness!!!

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2020-10-19, version 1.3*

This is play to win, not pay to win. I love the fusion of Space Invaders and Arkanoid, two games I played a lot in video games arcades of yesteryear.

### 5/5 — Awesome game!

*2020-10-05, version 1.3*

This bring me back to the classics with a twist.

### 5/5 — Worth the $

*2020-08-23, version 1.2*

Well-designed with exciting action and sound effects!
If you like old-school gaming enhanced with crisp, sharp graphics and audio, give this little gem a try.  My new fave!!  Love it!!

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2020-03-29, version 1.2*

I LOVE this game! It’s so much fun to play, and definitely is worth the money. I want to play it day and night, but my mom and dad won’t let me. I think this game is for everyone to play! Each level gets harder and harder, but that doesn’t stop me! If I could rate this game from 1-100 I’d give it 100% and higher! So this game is definitely right for everyone, anywhere, any age.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2020-02-18, version 1.2*

I wish more high quality premium games existed this this.

### 5/5 — Awesome game !!!!

*2020-02-13, version 1.2*

I was a little skeptical at first about this game until it got harder and reminded me of all the hours I spent playing these games in the arcade back in the 80s.  It’s super fun and well worth the money. If you love these games then this a must have.  Thank you.  Please make more levels soon.  I finished the game in 5 days but level 137 was a tough one.  I had to use 3 special powers to barely complete it.  😀

### 5/5 — Loved it

*2019-07-23, version 1.2*

Somehow I missed this when it was released, but I loved it.  Beat both normal and hard modes, definitely even more fun the second time!

### 5/5 — Worth the money/must buy

*2019-07-21, version 1.2*

This game is totally worth the money and brings back this old school game in a whole new way. I appreciate that there is no in game purchases, in fact I appreciate it so much I am taking time to write this review.
