You can sell a lot of lemonade at 3 dollars the entirety of the game, but as soon as you even do 3.05 you can sell one lemonade a day. You can’t break even around day like 40-50. ### 2/5 — Eh. *2021-07-05, version 1.0* This is really boring. It has potential, but.. just seeing text on the screen is god awful. ### 2/5 — Crappy *2020-10-06, version 1.0* I don’t think you’re reading people’s reviews. This and so many other reasons are why you have 2 and a half stars. ### 1/5 — Not working *2019-11-11, version 1.0* I can open the app and hit new game and it crashes every time, even redownloading it or restarting my phone won’t work ### 1/5 — Crashes *2019-10-28, version 1.0* It just crashes when i click play. Tried many times. I have the iPhone 11. ### 2/5 — Keeps crashing *2019-10-19, version 1.0* On my iphone 8 plus with ios 13.1.3 crashesh after i press start game ### 1/5 — Can’t even play it *2019-10-11, version 1.0* Every time I click to start game the app crashes. Tried re-setting and re-downloading. ### 1/5 — Annoyed *2019-10-09, version 1.0* Can’t even get in the game it kicks me off as soon as I press start game and I really wanted this game I’ve tried deleting and red own loading and powering off my phone nothing is working please get back to me ### 1/5 — Nightmare *2019-10-04, version 1.0* What kind of business has ever-increasing supply costs? A bully stole my money? I want to enjoy a wildly profitable lemonade stand, not get harassed and file for bankruptcy. ### 1/5 — Bad knock off *2019-04-22, version 1.0* Weather doesn’t matter. Price doesn’t matter. Nothing matters in this knock odd game. 35 degrees F and you sell 12 cups of lemonade at $3.75 a pop. 105 degrees and no one buys lemonade at $2 a pop. Trash game. ### 2/5 — Not the classic one *2018-12-21, version 1.0* This game doesn’t look like the classic lemonade stand at all. You have to manually enter every item you will purchase, it doesn’t give you the end of day summary, it doesn’t have different locations, it doesn’t show any customers etc, I gave 2 stars because at least they did try to do something. It should not named classic. ### 2/5 — help *2018-12-18, version 1.0* I just downloaded the lemonade stand app when I first opened it it asks me how many cups do I want to buy and I enter amount but then when I hit next and I entered amount of how many lemons I want to buy and then I enter how many packs of sugar I want to buy it kicks me out of the app and I reinstalled it but it still kicks me out of the app and it will not let me price my lemonade ### 2/5 — Great for nostalgia only. *2018-10-20, version 1.0* It was great play for the first 50 levels and then the prices of lemons and sugar make it impossible to make profits. The lemon and sugar pricing needs to fluctuate, highs and lows, not always be increasing. Im at a point in the game where it cost me over $5.00 to make the lemonade. It is not selling. Also, wayyy to many snow and 30 degree days. Where are all the hot hazy days? It’s a lemonade stand. Come on. So much potential here for someone to correct the flaws. ### 1/5 — It hates me!!! 😢😢 *2018-07-11, version 1.0* I seriously thought this was going to be an okay game. But no matter how hard I tried, it always gave me the same answer: "sorry. You didn't sell anything. " or something like that. Once I got to level 15, I gave up. The prices were so high although I still had ingredients from levels 1-5. Do not get this game. It is a MAJOR waste of time.The only reason I gave it a star was because it had an OK setup. If it would've worked I'd have given it 4/5. ### 1/5 — Game is unrealistic *2018-06-20, version 1.0* It is a fun game at first but the price of stock gets so high it cost more to buy the supplies then u can sell a lemonade for. That ruins the game. They should have a cap on price that it doesn’t exceed your cost more that 2.50 because the most u can sell multiple lemonades at is 3.00. Which is still only a .50 profit. If they stop the price from increasing after a certain level and just have things happen after that the game would be a lot better ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Prices are wrong *2025-07-26, version 1.0* Original was not one lemon per cup. This requires one lemon per cup so the pricing is wrong. ### 1/5 — Not the same *2020-12-20, version 1.0* Why can’t apple release Apple II games through the App Store? This isn’t the same. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2020-11-23, version 1.0* The app always crashes when placing the price ### 1/5 — Crashing Game *2020-05-26, version 1.0* I’ve deleted and re downloaded the game but every time I attempt to try “new game” it crashes. Would be fun to play though. ### 1/5 — Game play *2020-04-11, version 1.0* Just downloaded to play and won’t load. I hit Start Game and it backs out before I can even do anything. ### 1/5 — It seems really fun but I can’t even play!!! *2019-12-21, version 1.0* The second I press play it kicks me out of the game! It seems like a really fun game but I can’t play! PLEASE HELP! ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2019-12-18, version 1.0* Everytime I hit start game the app crashes. I’ve tried deleted the app and downloading it again & it still won’t let me play it. Super disappointed because I used to play a game that was similar as a child & this is a modern version but it just flat out won’t work. :( I can click about & it shows me the description without crashing, it just won’t let me start a game!! ### 1/5 — Bad *2019-12-13, version 1.0* It literally just crashes when you try to open a new game. ### 1/5 — Crashes everytime *2019-12-11, version 1.0* Crashes everytime you hit play on both iPad and iPhone. ### 1/5 — Grrr *2019-12-02, version 1.0* I really wish this would run on my phone! 😡 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great If You Grew Up With the Original! *2018-06-27, version 1.0* One of the first great mobile games, reimagined! For all of you who didn’t grow up with it and don’t get it: this game isn’t for you, so don’t leave a bad review! Just find another game! This one is for nostalgic people only! Classic... ### 5/5 — Great *2016-10-05, version 1.0* This is an amazing app. I was looking for a game like this an glad to have found it. This game works well with voiceover so i told all my blind friends about it. To make this game better, add more sound effects for the water, lemons and sugar. We should be able to make it our selves and there should be other things to do. ### 5/5 — Addicting! *2016-06-12, version 1.0* Great game to pass the time! Although it is very basic, it's very enjoyable! I like it! :) Edit: But the game does crash pretty often. Fix that soon please! Otherwise, great game! ### 4/5 — Cool, but one problem *2021-03-14, version 1.0* Hey, I am using an iPad to play with my VoiceOver on, and every time I sell my lemonades, the game crashes. Please fix this. Other than that, it's fun! ### 4/5 — It’s a good app *2019-10-29, version 1.0* I am blind and my voice over it works perfect with this app and plus I love the music and I love how you can make that much money I can’t in a bullet level man I’ve just got playing and I have $136 even though like sometimes the bully or the neighbor steals money you can always recuperate it thanks for making this game so I can play also ### 4/5 — Just like I remember *2017-05-30, version 1.0* This game takes me right back to the early 90s when or elementary school had computer game time. That said, it's a very basic game so there was never advanced economics lessons or 3D graphics as a part of gameplay. Unless you are over 30 you likely won't remember this game and get the point. ### 4/5 — Not too bad *2017-04-27, version 1.0* Would be more fun with some animations but it works as intended! 👍 ### 3/5 — Crashes *2020-09-19, version 1.0* The app crashes. I love it otherwise. I’m running iOS 14.0 if that helps. ### 3/5 — Cool App, But Could Be Cooler *2019-09-28, version 1.0* Hello. I think that this game is really cool so far. I think it has potential, if more things are added to it. I think that their should be customers, who tell you how they'd like their lemonade made. I also agree with someone else, who's rated the app, that there should be sounds for the water, lemons, and other things. I think there should be a cash register sound, when you earn money. Maybe you could hear the bully walk or run over, take your money, and laugh as he or she scurries away. I think you should add a lemon juicer, so people can juice their lemons. I think you should have to scoop the sugar out, and put it into the cup. There should also be ice to put in it, as well. This would make things more realistic. And what I meant by customers telling you how they'd like their lemonade, I mean the amount of lemons, sugars, ice cubes, if any, and how many cups they'd like to purchase. Thank you for making this game VoiceOver accessible. Am looking forward to your thoughts. ### 3/5 — Fine *2017-01-12, version 1.0* It's fun but gets boring after a while. I think a shop should be added and I wish you could see the people come and buy the lemonade from the lemonade stand. A shop could be to buy things with the money that you earn from selling lemonade. It would also be fun for the shop to add things from the store. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
