### 1/5 — No games just a quiz, waste of money. Refund pls.

*2023-12-18*

Would like a refund, this wasn’t as advertised, it’s just a quiz, not a pack of old 80s arcade games.

### 1/5 — Poor quality

*2023-11-28*

Refund please nothing but a black screen

### 1/5 — Probably should have read the reviews first

*2023-10-07*

It doesn’t work and i would like my money back

### 1/5 — Does not work-scam

*2023-09-04*

Do not buy this game, nothing works, just a blank screen

### 5/5 — Dig Dug

*2023-08-04*

Five stars because I beat Dave at the big console Dig Dig at the Mark’s Powers Lake bachelor party and then the lady at the club later rubbed it in that I beat Dave at Dig Dug.   That is the only reason for 5 stars.  This App could actually use some work.

### 1/5 — Truly awful

*2023-01-18, version 1.0*

I spent 2$ only to waste it. The game doesn’t work, the app is pay to buy for 0 content. If I could get a refund and give it 0/5 I would have. Unfortunately I could give it a 1, too good for it

### 1/5 — Best 80’s arcade games

*2023-01-15*

What a waste of time
Does not work at all on iPhone 14
Will be wanting my money back

### 1/5 — Deceptive sale.  It’s a trivia game.

*2023-01-08, version 1.0*

Bought this believing I was purchasing arcade games.  It is not.  It is a trivia game.  Which doesn’t tell you that unless you read all the way through.  It doesn’t even work properly.  Ridiculous that Apple allows this.

### 1/5 — Not impressed

*2022-11-30*

Should’ve read reviews it maybe a small amount of money but I’ll have it back thanks this shouldn’t be allowed on the store

### 1/5 — Worst game ever

*2022-11-27*

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME, it is appallingly bad, doesn’t load properly, terrible graphics. How they get away with charging for this is unbelievable.
