### 3/5 — Bruh

*2026-05-09*

So I spent $2 on the classic mode thinking, it’ll bring back the old version but nope, I got scammed and before then, I had classic mode already. But still great game though.

**Developer response:** We've shared your feedback with the team! 
All the best, Henny@SMG

### 5/5 — Chick it All

*2026-05-01*

A fun game to play. Almost like doing Scrabble.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! All the best, Henny@SMG

### 1/5 — Not The Original

*2026-04-06*

The game is not like the original. Instead, there is a lame program progression that is annoying and it made me lose interest really quickly.

### 1/5 — NOTHING like the original

*2026-01-18*

I am so disappointed this is absolutely nothing like the original game. I even paid for the “classic” version but it is not like the one I love with the timer and the 3 minute quick play, there’s no timer at all. I’m sure if you never played the original this is an ok game but if you love the one from Blockdot you’re probably going to be disappointed like me.

### 3/5 — Silence mode

*2025-12-06*

When the game is on silent , when u pass a level the volume turns on and you have to open options and unmute and remute to silence the game

### 5/5 — It’s back!

*2025-11-21*

I had a dream - no joke - that this app came back and decided to check. I’ve been waiting for years and I’m so glad it’s finally back.

### 5/5 — Been waiting

*2025-09-23*

I have been waiting a long time for this game to come back!  I am happy it did.

### 4/5 — my shayla 🥹

*2025-09-12*

this is my favorite game of all time!! i literally used to be so obsessed with this when i was younger. i always checked periodically in hopes it’d be here and i was so relieved to see it’s back!! i’ve never even left a review before but i’m just so happy, i had to! thank you so so much!!

if you guys could just PLEASE make it compatible with bluetooth keyboards that’d be so amazing! 🤞 and also maybe have an option to turn the music off but keep the other sounds like the clucks? i would be eternally grateful 🧎‍♀️

edit: i’ve noticed my progress isn’t consistent between my phone and ipad. that would also be helpful to just pick up where you left off regardless of device!

So glad that this game is back. The only thing that I miss are the cool and crazy chicken clucks and other sounds from the original version. Bring back the CLUCKS!
