### 2/5 — Does not save progress

*2025-06-05*

Even after manually saving progress, it’s still lost. Fun game but not worth the effort of starting over every time. My suggestion is to not waste your time downloading the game until the developer acknowledges the issue is fixed.

### 2/5 — Saving doesn’t work

*2025-05-29*

I’m so used to games auto-saving these days that I neglected to save, so I had to start over… only to find that the save functionality is buggy and I was back at square one for a THIRD time. Ugh. Particularly frustrating since the controls are hard to get used to, making me utterly disinterested in solving some of the more arduous, finger-bending puzzles a third time. A shame since it’s an interesting game — I’d recommend either skipping it or playing through in one long sitting.

### 2/5 — Very difficult to maneuver the character

*2025-04-11*

Very difficult to maneuver the character. Makes the game a drag to play.

### 4/5 — Game progress does not save

*2025-02-22*

Great port over. Controls feel natural but the main issue is that saving doesn’t work. I thought the first time was a fluke but now I’m seeing that others are having the same issue. This game is too mind-bending to do in one sitting and I’m not going for a speed run. Please fix this issue!

### 3/5 — Great port. Awful save bug

*2025-01-29*

This is a great port for one of the best indie puzzle platforming game of all time. Touch control is sufficient though it doesn’t work as well on certain puzzle compared to physical controller (where you have to toggle the lever as a shadow). 

Developer needs to fix the save bug. It’s really important to save your games in all 3 slots. It seems like the first slot gets overwritten as a new game anytime you close the game for an extended period of time. Super frustrated to spend extra replaying the game.

### 1/5 — CADE O GTA VICE CITY??

*2024-12-25*

CADE O GTA VICE CITY??

### 1/5 — Save Files Keep Getting Overwritten to Zero

*2024-12-23, version 2.5.1*

I can’t figure out why, but it’s pretty demotivating finishing a few worlds only for everything to get erased.

Please fix this bug!

### 3/5 — Bug de sauvegarde, sinon au top !

*2024-12-19*

Ça fait 2 fois que je perds ma sauvegarde sur iPhone SE 2 ! Dommage, j’y jouerais sur une autre plateforme !

### 1/5 — Won’t Save

*2024-12-17*

This is a fun game and I love the music but no matter which level I get to, my progress is deleted the next day.  This is very frustrating and based on reviews I am not the only one.

### 1/5 — Keeps losing my save points

*2024-12-14*

I fill each save slot each time because the first slot is usually empty. Today all 3 are empty. So frustrating.

### 1/5 — Lost my progress

*2024-12-10*

Love this game, but I can’t recommend anyone playing it on their phone. It lost my save game twice — once after world 2 and again after world 5 (from a restart)! I read that someone had this problem, so I contacted Netflix support. They were not able to bring back my save file. “Technical team is already working on” was the eventual response. Don’t download this. Play it on a different platform instead.

### 1/5 — Save files are erased every time

*2024-12-10*

Whenever I close the game and come back to it, I have to start from the beginning because my saves are erased. The game itself is fun and offers controller support. Unfortunate that the saves are ephemeral

### 1/5 — Save deleted

*2024-12-08, version 2.5.1*

My save was deleted. Haven’t had this happen with any other game

### 1/5 — Wipes out saves 😢

*2024-12-03*

I thought it was a glitch, but I proved it out twice. Played through Worlds 2 and 3, and for some reason, after a time, when I go back into the game it’s starts me out completely at the beginning of the game. And to make it worse, my saves are wiped out too.

Great game; HORRIBLE port!

**Developer response:** Hey FujitaGoro, thanks for the review! Could you contact us at https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus That way we could look into the issue and do our best to help you out. We’ll be waiting for your message!

### 1/5 — Fortschritt geht verloren

*2024-11-10*

Die erste Spielstunde hinterlässt einen super Eindruck. Ein Plattformer fürs Handy. Genau das, was ich gesucht habe. Leider geht mein Fortschritt immer wieder verloren. Nach einem Neustart der App beginnt das Spiel immer wieder von Vorne.

### 1/5 — Saves Deleted

*2025-06-04, version 2.5.1*

Same as everyone else, my save files delete whenever the app closes

### 1/5 — Same bug as everyone else

*2025-05-23, version 2.5.1*

The save file keeps getting overwritten, and it makes you start all over again.

### 1/5 — PLEASE FIX THE SAVE FEATURE 😭

*2025-04-28*

Okay I love this game and all, but you guys need to fix the save feature. If the game resets every time you open it, how are you supposed to make any progress. I’d understand if that was a part of the game, but it’s not. I can’t ever play it unless I plan to finish it in one sitting. Anyway, I’m giving it 2 stars until this is fixed.

### 1/5 — Saves keep deleting

*2025-04-26*

Keeps deleting any progress including the cloud when you fully close the game

### 1/5 — Won’t save :(

*2025-03-25, version 2.5.1*

The file keeps being over written and all data erased. Don’t bother getting invested because if you stop it restarts the level.

I reached out to their customer service and they cant/don’t bother restoring the older save.

### 1/5 — Saving broken

*2025-03-10*

The save system does not work, it will wipe your progress each time you start the game.

### 1/5 — Great game, saving doesn’t work

*2025-02-26*

As other people have already mentioned, every time I close this game, it deletes my save state and I have to start from the beginning, making this essentially unplayable unless I want to play it all in one sitting.

### 1/5 — Lost save game

*2025-02-12*

Better plan on beating this in one session because the game can’t save. Tried both manual and auto save and the save gets overwritten after a few hours, losing all progress. It’s a horrendous bug that makes the game essentially unplayable. Supposedly there’s a workaround if you manually save in all three slots, but they need to fix the issue.

### 1/5 — Impossible d’enregistrer

*2025-01-18*

Idem problème de sauvegarde, dommage

### 1/5 — Non salva i progressi

*2024-12-28*

Il gioco sarebbe davvero bellissimo se salvasse i progressi di volta in volta.

*2024-08-16*

One of the finest platforming games created, the artwork is stunningly rendered, with a fascinating and engaging storyline and set of mechanics. Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Fantastic. Please let me change the language.

*2024-06-16*

The game picks up the language from my Netflix account. I want to play it in English. Is there a way to change it?
