### 4/5 — I like it

*2022-05-22, version 3.1*

I mean I like the faces and stuff but make something where you can make your own faces. And make a chat maybe?

### 3/5 — The ads

*2022-04-19, version 3.1*

Why are there so many ads

### 3/5 — ehh

*2020-10-26, version 3.1*

the game needs to fix the ai ASAP. it lags to where they just rush at you and kill you and if you run into one you end up dying instead. ruins the fun, ruins the game. 😔

### 4/5 — Wormtastic!!👍👍👍👍

*2017-09-30, version 3.1*

Just one suggestion...a pause button for gameplay 🤣

### 3/5 — Good but points go down!

*2017-03-13, version 3.1*

Fun and addictive... except I'm DONE playing it because I can't figure out why you get to so far and the points go backwards I was at 2000 points and they kept going backwards and I couldn't get anymore why does this happen?!!!!

### 4/5 — Best game ever

*2016-10-15, version 3.1*

This is a great game so addicting! I can't stop playing it! 🤗🤗🤗

### 4/5 — "Awesome" words from sis

*2016-08-01, version 3.1*

My sister says this game is the bomb. She told me to deduct a star bc of the stupid ads. She says this game is so awesome and she can't stop so when we got together a week ago I downloaded it to she how it was. She was right this game really is the bomb. 

You guys should really download this game it really is the bomb. But don't just take my word for it read everyone else's comments and you'll see why my sister says this game is the bomb.

### 4/5 — Fun

*2016-07-27, version 3.1*

Like it just fine

### 3/5 — WERES TANK.IO

*2016-07-21, version 3.1*

WHERE THE HELL IS TANK.IO WHY DID YOU GET RID OF IT!?!?

### 5/5 — crawl.io

*2016-07-11, version 3.1*

hey,look! 
what a neat crash!
but seriously, this game is cool.

also...what does the u.s. iTunes app store have against system optimizer apps, system memory refreshing apps, & battery boosting apps? 
seriously! 
every time i find one that does it all, inevitably the app store phases it out. 
these types of utilities are readily available in every other store, but not in the u.s. store.
it's as though apple doesn't want it's customers to be able to enjoy the benefits of this type of utility, and they don't have the right to decide that for their customers.
(and yet they have done just that)
hasn't anyone out there noticed this? 
i cannot be the only person.

### 4/5 — música

*2016-07-10, version 3.1*

le hace falta sonido

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2016-06-15, version 3.1*

I highly recommend this game to people who love Slither.io. This game has no lag, many ways to customize your snake/worm, and you can even play offline. I figured out that these are bots when I turned my iPad off and on and everything resumed again. But yet again love it! -ShanePlaysGames from YouTube

*2016-06-11, version 3.1*

### 1/5 — Not All That Great

*2016-07-05, version 3.1*

I've played children's games more entertaining than this, also, to anyone looking at the reviews here, slither.io is also free and has an AI mode separate from the online.

### 1/5 — Pornographic ads

*2016-06-18, version 3.1*

Deleted this game after sons showed me HIGHLY inappropriate ads. Don't know what control the developer has, but With ads like the ones I saw, this game is not ok for anyone under 21.

### 1/5 — don't like

*2016-06-16, version 3.1*

also there's an AI mode on slither.io

### 1/5 — Not for kids!!

*2016-06-11, version 3.1*

The age needs to be changed on this!!! The ads are not appropriate for 4+. My 6 year old son was playing this and an inappropriate ad with nudity came up.

### 1/5 — NO MULTIPLAYER!!

*2016-06-01, version 3.1*

i got trolled i played this game for hours then i realized this game is offline with no online multiplayer the developer is  fu*kin C*NT

### 1/5 — FAKE NOT A ONLINE APP

*2016-06-01, version 3.1*

Turn on airline mode and see for your self.

I don't understand why Apple let's this type of apps with misguided  information to pass.

### 2/5 — Oh yay right, it always lags!

*2022-11-19, version 3.1*

It lagged so much, might be because of a old phone, but my phone is good. Thanks any way!

### 2/5 — DO NOT INSTALL WITHOUT READING FIRST

*2019-10-28, version 3.1*

First thing you should know is that this app has SO MANY FREAKIN ADDS! If you aren’t very fond of this, THEN I DO NOT RECOMMEND. Second thing, remember that there are many other players in this game, which means competition, so do NOT INSTALL if you have anger issues. Although there are many BAD things about this game, it is still a pretty fun thing to play to pass time. So, all in all, read these pros and cons an decide yourself wether you want it or not. Thank you for reading.

### 2/5 — It’s has its problems

*2019-02-13, version 3.1*

I love crawl but you should be able to grow larger faster because you die so fast, and you don’t grow to be big.

### 2/5 — NOT ONLINE

*2016-05-27, version 3.1*

So at first I thought it was online but I turned of my phone without leaving the app and I went back in and everything was at the same place as it was. Also the names are to regular to be online and the top 10 only put unique names.

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2020-11-09, version 3.1*

I had this game 4 years ago on my Android and I found it again! Great game! Lol and I love the anime and designs you can put on the snakes, you can even choose a charm for the snake! Awesome. And also the dots are only worth 1 point can you make the snakes dots worth a bit more! But overall I love it.

### 5/5 — 5 stares

### 5/5 — Great game. Yeah, it’s a rip off that’s better than the actual thing!

*2019-03-17, version 3.1*

This game is amazing, but I very much hate the adds. But, that’s why I usually play offline so there are no adds. This game is amazing in so many ways, keep up the good work, crawl.io!

### 5/5 — Crawl io fast pace games.

Game is awesome but not online!!!!!

### 5/5 — Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*2017-01-07, version 3.1*

1: You're able to play it offline. 

2: You're actually playing against AI's but it feels like you're playing against real people. 

The only downside is all the but you can skip those pretty quick or they're not very long.

### 5/5 — CRawl.io is FUN

*2017-01-06, version 3.1*

Really enjoy this game. Some people R out for blood. It is a lot of fun when they die whether they ran into you or someone else. 😜

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2016-07-18, version 3.1*
