### 1/5 — Laggy

*2022-10-18, version 1.0*

Literally unplayable 

My calculator runs this game at 30 fps this runs at 8

### 3/5 — Constructive Criticism

*2022-10-18, version 1.0*

It seems people are one way or the other with this app in the reviews. Ultimately, it’s basically everything you could realistically expect. It meets the goal that it set out. It may not be in-depth, but it’s exactly what it promised. So for that, it’s a great game. There is one legitimate issue that has already mentioned that I experienced twice out of my first three playthroughs. That would be the ball getting stuck at the top. If it gets the right angle, it bounces off the top of one of the highest red blocks, and then gets stuck at the top. As a student who is actually going through the lessons in the CodeHS website, I find this to be a valuable experience. It’s a great game, and it’s always good to listen to the experiences of others who have played through and tried things you wouldn’t think of, and then use that info to improve!

### 4/5 — Meh

*2022-02-12, version 1.0*

It’s an Atari game on apple, it has circles, and it’s alright. What I do think is amazing, is laughing at the idiots in the reviews section on the apple store.

### 1/5 — Ball is stuck on top

*2021-08-08, version 1.0*

What now?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-07-17, version 1.0*

Doesn’t load on iOS 14

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2020-12-16, version 1.0*

I had tones of fun on the game, when I’m bored, I’m not sure what people are complaining about.

### 1/5 — Wouldn’t open

*2020-11-14, version 1.0*

I downloaded this this morning for something mindless to play. I downloaded it and hit play and got a white screen. I deleted it and downloaded it again and got a white screen. I turn my phone off and back on, downloaded it again, and got a white screen. If I could give it zero stars I would’ve.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2020-06-12, version 1.0*

Rubbish. As the other reviewer stated, ball just gets stuck at top of screen.  What’s the point?!

### 3/5 — Bruh

*2020-04-20, version 1.0*

Fine, and i was doing great until i had one left and the ball got stuck to the top

### 5/5 — Read plz

*2019-10-21, version 1.0*

Not a lot of people like it but because it’s old school the colors are NOT on the actual game (the original Version) but anyway I like it
