### 3/5 — Idk what happened

*2026-08-10, version 1.1.8*

Maybe it’s my phone being weird but some of the obstacles just stopped moving lol

### 3/5 — Fun game, bad mechanics

*2026-07-29, version 1.1.8*

Great game, didn’t mind shelling out $3 for all the levels but as the levels progressed, so did my frustration. 

Tricky timing and sections that take some repetition are fine but when you add luck-based challenges like the peg board drop that can tank a good run to dropping you to 0 stars is incredibly annoying.

And I’m sure with another couple dozen attempts I could learn how to shoot the ball with just enough power that it doesn’t go all the way to the top and instead lands right in the finish hole but I don’t have the time to dedicate an hour to a singular section on a singular level in a mobile game like it’s a part-time job.

### 2/5 — Loading

*2026-07-22, version 1.1.8*

The game doesn’t seem to be loading for me. Whenever i go into the game I cant even get to the first level, but i am also on an old phone (iPhone 7). The price is pretty good compared to other games, but i cant see if I like it.

### 3/5 — Not free to play

*2026-07-15, version 1.1.8*

The games really good, very fun concept but the download is free, the rest of the game is payed, could’ve just said demo or something to suggest only a small number of levels available

### 2/5 — Need to pay

*2026-07-10, version 1.1.8*

Only the first 3 levels are free

### 5/5 — What I think about this game

*2026-07-09, version 1.1.8*

Find it relaxing and helps me focus great game!

### 4/5 — super fun and cute!

*2026-07-06, version 1.1.8*

supa fun, supa aesthetically pleasing, but, i am quiet bummed you have to pay after just three rounds ;x(…i hate to be that person and sound corny, but i dislike how many games cost money nowadays, especially when games make it seem like they are free, but you have to pay in order to continue. huge bummer…but at the same time, i get it! how else would you make money, if not either charge money or play a ton of ads? very fun and cute game so i would recommend purchasing probably, but wish i could play more! its cheap but i’m broke >.<

### 3/5 — T

*2026-07-04, version 1.1.8*

*2026-06-18, version 1.1.5*

i love this game so badly ! its so simple and fun to play while passing time and i gladly paid the fee for more levels after breezing through the free ones. i’ve finished all the levels and can’t wait for more

### 2/5 — Not all free

*2026-06-14, version 1.1.5*

I would not recommend this game to people who want to just sit back and relax and play a game on there phone that requires you to buy something to play more of that game sure it doesnt have ads but you only get to play 3 levels without having to pay and to me that is dumb

### 1/5 — Racial

*2026-05-09, version 1.1.5*

Me sentí discriminado por que las bolas son blancas y yo no

### 1/5 — Don’t call it free if you have to pay 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

*2026-04-21, version 1.1.5*

This game was very fun I’m not even gonna lie until I saw that you only get three puzzles and the rest of the levels you have to pay for

### 1/5 — 付費

*2026-04-18, version 1.1.5*

第三關之後還要花90塊開通是怎樣只讓我玩三關好笑嗎

### 1/5 — Paralı

*2026-04-08, version 1.1.5*

Oyun güzel ama paralı

### 1/5 — Not much to play

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Very fun

*2026-08-29, version 1.1.8*

I could play this forever

### 5/5 — These new Automatoys are perfect, keep this up!

*2026-08-24, version 1.1.8*

I know that I experienced a fact about level 14, it was when my ball got stuck, after it fell down the end of the level.

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-08-18, version 1.1.8*

It’s not to easy not to hard and super fun

### 5/5 — Frustratingly Fun!

*2026-08-16, version 1.1.8*

A childish exterior concealing an engaging game of motion and strategy requiring thought and timing, playable with the click of a single button!  Simultaneously simple and complex.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2026-08-10, version 1.1.8*

Very good. Pls make more games

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-08-05, version 1.1.8*

100% fun and really thoughtful game

### 5/5 — Well done

*2026-08-02, version 1.1.8*

Amazing, clean, creative

### 5/5 — A winner

*2026-08-01, version 1.1.8*

I’m extremely picky about my games. You have a tough bar to clear at every stage of the game: what I even read about, what install, what I play more than once, etc. I paid for all 16 levels, I find that price more than reasonable, and I am leaving a review. It’s beautiful and lovingly tactile, and great to listen to whether you choose their music or your own. Why are you still reading my lousy review? ;)

### 5/5 — Tuff alpha male game

*2026-07-19, version 1.1.8*

This is a very tuff game my sigmas!

### 5/5 — Good balance of challenge and fun

*2026-07-18, version 1.1.8*

This provides just the right amount of challenge to also keep it fun and engaging. After trying the first few free levels, I bought it as it’s cheaper than a latte! And lasts longer. Love this!
