### 5/5 — One of the best games ever made for iOS

*2026-08-05, version 1.1.1*

Love every level. I wish there were more games like this.  I hope they will make a sequel. 

This could become a Mario Bros or Sonic the hedgehog type of game.

### 5/5 — High effort put in

*2023-12-12, version 1.1*

This game was really fun and the music was the best part. The game was fast paced and challenging, but fair at the same time. Story is okay, gameplay is fair. If there was a level designer in this game it would be great!

### 5/5 — Great App/Game

*2018-10-20, version 1.1*

I played through the first four levels. This game is way more than a runner as I think I saw someone else say. It seems to have a Lotta replay value as sometimes you will need to repeat stages over and over again to win. I was very pleasantly surprised when I played this game.
