### 4/5 — Good game but please make the multiplayer 3 players or above so my friends and I can play

*2026-08-30, version 1.12.75*

I also think it would just be really peak have like 10 people in a multiplayer game and if you think it would not be fair make the enemies stronger for each player such as if there were 5 people the enemy hp would be boosted by 50% me personally I just think that would be a really good feature to add in your game for future fun with friends.

### 4/5 — the got bart simpson

*2026-08-29, version 1.12.75*

goated

### 5/5 — So good

*2026-08-14, version 1.12.75*

The game is just perfect nothing wrong

### 4/5 — Fun, but also ad ridden.

*2026-08-14, version 1.12.75*

Dan the Man is a really fun game, and is the very game that sorta built my childhood, but this game kinda changed more.

THERE is a chance of losing your all of your progress (from what I remember 7 years ago I think.)

Ads (worse then any world events, ever.) are getting annoying, long and can even break the audio and screen size if you accidentally tap on the screen or miss the “X” button.

And the 24 hour time on adventure levels is a bad addition to the nightmare of Ads.

But this game will always be in my heart.


Also what I recommend is putting Apple or Google login options to save data, it should help with any data loss in the future or moving to a new device.

### 2/5 — Ima be honest

*2026-08-13, version 1.12.75*

I mean the game itself is fun and Iv loved the series so much over the years but now this game has kinda.. okay its trash I’m sorry.

### 5/5 — This game is great.

*2026-08-12, version 1.12.75*

I used to play this when I was a kid.  Nice to revisit the childhood.

### 5/5 — 15

*2026-08-12, version 1.12.75*

I’m 15 years old coming back to this game from my childhood and it’s still so peak 🔥

### 5/5 — Oyun çok güZel

*2026-08-10, version 1.12.75*

Oyun güzel çoğu zaman oynuyorum ama bi sorunum var oda macera modunda çünkü Barry karakterini satın alamayan kişiler macera bölümünde Barry ile oynanan bölümler geçilemiyor. Çünkü level yükseltilemediği için. Bence macera modu için Barry bedava olmalı ve leveli yükseltilebilmeli olmalı

### 4/5 — Fun, but also ad ridden.

### 4/5 — How do you do it?

*2026-08-03, version 1.12.75*

Good game just that I don’t know how to make a new account no matter what I do if I delete the apps data it says that the apps data has successfully updated, which gives me back my old data, even though I want a new account

### 5/5 — Peak

### 1/5 — Seems like a fun game got to play like 6 levels and then it said I couldn’t play for 6 hours

*2026-08-22, version 1.12.75*

It’s almost predatory to allow you to install a game and them put wait timers on it after every level unless you pay money this isn’t a free game it’s a demo

### 1/5 — لعبتكم خربانه

*2026-08-17, version 1.12.75*

لعبتكم خربانه ولا تشتغل أنا عند الزعيم الأخير وقربت اقتله وذبحني واحاول ارجع مايخليني ليه لعبه خربانه

### 1/5 — Money

*2026-08-05, version 1.12.75*

Like I had 2302 than they took my money for no reason it happened many times before that’s not fair to the players that’s playing trying to upgrade there not letting get ahead

### 1/5 — gurt: yo

*2026-07-30, version 1.12.75*

why do you have to wait 11 hours for a level yo😭✌️

### 1/5 — Stop asking me if I like the game

*2026-07-18, version 1.12.75*

Enough is enough.

### 1/5 — Title

*2026-06-29, version 1.12.75*

Your game sucks

### 1/5 — Greedy corporate game turned cash grab

*2026-06-06, version 1.12.75*

So I used to play Dan the man, very good game so i redownloaded it and the prologue was fine 1 ad after like 3 mins is fine, then straight after that they give you long unskippable ads at every checkpoint and end and start of levels, I counted 8 ADS in a span of 3 minutes which is atrocious not to mention, you have to pay a 5 dollar per month subscription?!?! It’s a mobile game and you’re telling me I have to pay 5 bucks just to play for a month?!?!’ It doesn’t even include premium features like ad free and stuff, and if I’m not gonna pay that I gotta wait 5 hours for a 3 minute level, yeah that’s bs, halfbrain if you’re going to turn one of your games into a hell of a greedy little cash grab, do it to your new games and not the ones people know and love. OH WAIT, you can’t since your greedy studio forgot how to make a half decent game, then you remove controller support as well and don’t restore my purchases when I spent 5 bucks ONE time so I could get ad free and whatever vip benefits there were, you’re funny, bye halfbrick have fun selling your bs

### 1/5 — Propaganda demais

*2026-06-01*

Não dá para jogar

### 1/5 — 5 hours??

*2026-05-24, version 1.12.75*

I used to play this game a few years ago and I loved it, so I redownloaded it the other day. Now I have to wait 5 hours and 48 minutes to play the next level every time? That’s absolutely ridiculous. And no, I’m not buying premium to skip the wait. You had a good thing going, you got greedy, and then ruined it. Thanks a lot.

### 1/5 — iCloud doesn’t work

*2026-05-12, version 1.12.75*

Lost every progress, this happened when iOS 26 first came out.
The support articles don’t help and barely get any updated.
Through the chat box, no agent was connected to me even after an hour.
Below 1 star if possible since the game has become ad and micro transactions farm.

### 5/5 — Please add more levels

*2026-08-21, version 1.12.75*

Half brick, please add more levels I don’t want to keep playing the same level over and over again. I just want you to put like actually way more levels instead instead of just the ending. I want you to put way more levels like we rebel instead of kill please.

### 5/5 — Good
