### 4/5 — Good just copyright ig……

*2026-06-23, version 2.1*

Reason Why I Put “copyright ig” is because I think they copied the sound from Roblox’s DANDY’S WORLD when Twisted Vee Makes An Ad Pop Up On Your Screen sorry Atari For Acusing You

### 4/5 — Pretty good except…

*2025-11-03, version 2.1*

I love this game so much, I play it over and over, but I want to try out different levels without having to pay for them. So overall great, but they need more levels that are free!

### 4/5 — Good App

*2025-07-03, version 2.1*

Dragging your finger across the screen is a little difficult but overall a solid game experience.

### 5/5 — bias

*2025-05-21, version 2.1*

I have a bias old App Store games.

### 5/5 — Scratches my retro itch

*2025-05-14, version 2.1*

Atari should have more free games on mobile. Maybe something like Centipede or Crystal Castles or Pong

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2025-05-11, version 2.1*

A truly classic game. I really enjoy the speed control option.

### 5/5 — This is how you make an old game relevant again

*2025-05-03*

This is a great spin on the original game, the new levels and level system along with the power up’s and level themes really bring this from a boring arcade game from the Stone Age to a really fun brain-off game to vibe to, and the speed regulator is just the cherry on top

### 5/5 — What are you waiting for . . .

### 1/5 — The game needs updating. IOS 26.

*2026-01-21, version 2.1*

This game needs an update, right after I bought the first pack the game quit loading. I then redownloaded and went to restore purchase, the game then closes. Now its not opening again. Unplayable.

### 1/5 — One star for me

*2025-12-29, version 2.1*

You haven’t created a free game if we have to buy levels to get anywhere it’s not free and I will not support it. I don’t know what if people are on these days besides the green holler you’re going to like a free game and then charge for the levels no thanks

### 1/5 — NOT FREE

*2025-12-14, version 2.1*

It’s all well and good but you have limited options unless you PAY!!! I’ll be uninstalling in a few minutes!!!!

### 1/5 — Needs a Recharge!

*2025-04-17, version 2.1*

Please get Adamvision to recharge this game!  The dev SixHourSoft or smth made a good effort.  But Adam will knock this out the park. Please!!!

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2024-12-16, version 2.1*

Please repair

### 1/5 — ONE GAME!?

*2023-11-19, version 2.1*

This is an outrage! You only get 1 free game! The rest cost stuff! It is like spending your life savings on 1 ai art app! There is no pizzaz! CREATOR, MAKE MORE LEVELS THAT R FREE😡😡😡😡😡😡

### 1/5 — Can’t open/can’t restore purchases

*2023-09-06, version 2.1*

This game keeps crashing. I don’t se an update but the game is definitely different and I can’t restore my purchase to get to the locked versions. Gave up and went for the free games but that keeps crashing on me too.

### 1/5 — Atualizem, por favor!

*2023-01-31*

O jogo é ótimo, mas não funciona direito no iOS mais recente. Trava várias vezes e faz o jogador perder as bolinhas.

### 1/5 — Sucks. Have to pay to play levels. Only preview is free

*2023-01-17, version 2.1*

Sucks. Have to pay to play levels. Only preview is free

### 5/5 — So Fun!

*2026-07-04, version 2.1*

This is really a classic and fun game! You should make more games like this! :)

### 5/5 — Why not classics?

*2026-07-03, version 2.1*

Add Pac-Man, please

### 5/5 — It’s fun

*2026-05-10, version 2.1*

I like it. It’s a fun game and I like the feature that you can control how fast the ball moves and it’s really fun and it’s made by the original BREAKOUT® maker Atari. 😀😀😀☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️👶🏼

### 5/5 — Just Perfect

*2026-02-13, version 2.1*

No ads, No p2w, PERFECT!!! Thanks again Atari for such a great game

### 5/5 — Breakout

*2026-01-18, version 2.1*

I love this game I only do the five levels cause I don't play games a lot.  I have a lot of hobbies so I float around my activities. It's   Not worth paying for games if I only play not even once a month. When I get bed ridden then I'll pay. Lol lol

### 5/5 — Good game!

*2026-01-13, version 2.1*

Good for any retro Atari game lover! Modern-ish version of Breakout for mobile you can take anywhere!

### 5/5 — Glad this is still available

*2025-11-17, version 2.1*

I played this all the time in 2017. For some reason I remembered it today and decided to redownload, and it’s just as fun as before

### 5/5 — Fun Spin On Atari Classic

*2025-09-20, version 2.1*

It’s good! I’ll review it more later!

### 5/5 — Classic fun!

*2025-08-06, version 2.1*

This game would be so much better if it had game controller support. I’d much prefer to use a joystick. I decided not to pay for the upgrade because the finger sliding of the player bar is kind of horrible. It would be great with a joystick on a controller.

### 5/5 — Still works, YES!!

*2025-07-30, version 2.1*

Thank you for reviving this classic, I downloaded this in 2013 and it’s still working, awesome! A company with integrity!
