He was so frustrated the he deleted it!! ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2023-06-21* Controls are bad af. Thats definitely not what you’re expecting ### 1/5 — Ill give 5 Stars on my 5 apple accounts for making a Sound on/off option! *2023-02-19* <3 ### 1/5 — Steuerung ist Müll *2023-02-14* Wie kann man ein so simples Spiel soviel schlechter machen als der Gameboy in den 90er Jahren? ### 1/5 — Almost Unplayable. *2023-02-09* Even playing on an IpadAir5 the bat is sluggish and slow to react. Seems to drag, making it hard to get to the ball in time. Dissapointing. Much better out there. How this got onto Apadvice daily is beyond me, but that has seriously hon down hill too. ### 1/5 — Bug *2011-03-20* O jogo seria bom se não fosse pelo bug que fecha o jogo toda vez la pela fase 20. Não vale a compra por ser pago e mal feito. ### 1/5 — Péssimo! *2011-03-15* Joguei dinheiro fora! Não vale a pena! ### 2/5 — Not Arkanoid *2023-06-25* Ooh, Arkanoid… but not. The classic arcade game was really responsive the challenge was to not overshoot, but here it's soooo sloooow. Beyond that, some things don't work the same (like the collisions with the flying polygons). Also, some things work poorly, such as the laser not firing automatically but needing a separate tap that is waaaay too slow and messes with the bad movement. Speaking of witch, I'm finding it hard to not obstruct the view, but that may just be the problem with the platform. ### 2/5 — Please remove randomness *2023-03-05* I like the game but i absolutely hate those things flying across the board so when the ball hits them it goes into a random direction. Makes no fun… ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2023-02-10* Great version of a classic! ### 5/5 — Blaster ball on phone *2021-06-28* Arkanoid game on iPhone gives me the best ball blaster fun classic arcade are coolest. ### 5/5 — Muito bom! *2011-05-05* O jogo é muito bacana! Só fiquei muito _______ foi uma vez que eu estava com mais de 87500 pontos e 4 vidas e o aplicativo travou. É a Lei de Murphy, justo na minha melhor campanha! Fora isso é agradável. ### 5/5 — Otimo! *2011-03-18* Vai nesse , é dos antigos porem atualizado . ### 5/5 — legendary arkanoid in your iPad *2011-03-11* It's like the legendary arkanoid with good graphics, good controls and a nice retro look ### 4/5 — Nice game, but need some adjustments *2023-02-12* I like the nice simple game, but it need some adjustments for me. A small option / help menu with description of power ups and the ability to turn sound on/off. Currently the sound is coupled with the iPhone hardware sound mute switch, but it should play sound independently of the switch state, like almost all games do with separate sound settings. ### 4/5 — Retro brick breaker *2023-02-10* A brick breaking game with futuristic sound effects and retro theme. I like the robotic voice that says “ready” before you begin. And I also find it nice that when you lose it starts up again quickly. It’s simplistic but pretty decent overall. ### 3/5 — Versão anterior melhor *2023-09-24* As imagens de planetas pelas fases da versão anterior eram melhores. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
