### 2/5 — The unlimited hearts for 999 years pay option does not work!

*2025-11-28, version 1.5*

I’ve tried to pay once to unlock the unlimited hearts but it doesn’t work

### 3/5 — Не получил платный бонус

*2025-02-21*

Оплатил бесконечные сердца а они не активировались, игра норм

### 4/5 — This is a ripoff

*2024-07-29, version 1.5*

If you want to play this game big actually good play Disney tsum tsums

### 2/5 — Pretty fun. Fundamentally broken.

*2024-07-14*

I played this game to death while doing absolutely nothing at all. It’s a good time killer, but I’ve played the game to level 300, and from that point on, the game is broken, with 30-second frenzies which last 60 seconds, and levels with no time. The levels with no time are supposed to be 30 moves only, but you can make as many moves as you want. Even earlier, the no-bombs challenge does not work. I was bored enough to play the game for so long, but then I got more bored playing it. So, you know, ‘tis life.

### 4/5 — No ads

*2024-05-10*

Not my favourite game but is has no ads

### 5/5 — THIS GAME SLAPS

*2024-02-23*

The art direction is so consistent. I love how LOUD and MINIMAL it all is. It’s super welcoming and sickly satisfying! The feedback, both visual and haptics are 👌.. I loved it! Hats off to the devs, would love to work with teams like these to make games <3

### 5/5 — Very yes

*2024-02-18, version 1.5*

Hotline Miami is in a mobile game. Game of the year 1989.

### 5/5 — Devolver

*2024-02-08, version 1.5*

This is a genuinely fun time waster, as well as a celebration of Devolver itself! The only complaint is the "lives" system but besides that, this is a fun time waster! Good job NoPoPo and Devolver!

### 5/5 — Pretty legit

*2023-12-17, version 1.5*

Good music, great gameplay, no ads if you choose without paying

### 5/5 — Viciante

*2023-11-12*

Adorei

### 5/5 — Add Leshy

*2023-11-06, version 1.5*

And make the lamb free

### 1/5 — THIEVES!!!

*2026-08-02, version 1.5*

I purchased unlimited hearts and NEVER received them. Tried the restore purchase button, yet nothing happens. I don’t like giving money away to billionaire companies for nothing. I want a refund. It’s no telling how much money Devolver has made scamming customers through this game. Shameful

### 1/5 — Stole my money

*2026-02-18*

Purchased "unlimited hearts" only to get absolutely nothing for it. How could Devolver publish an actual scam?

Edit: they have now charged me twice for the same in app purchase that was never delivered.

### 1/5 — Purchases don't work

*2026-01-18, version 1.5*

Tried to buy unlimited hearts and it never gave me it so I got a refund and would try again later. Well after a month I tried again and its been over 2 days since I bought it, still haven't gotten the unlimited hearts. Restore Purchases button does NOTHING and they STILL advertise to me that I should buy unlimited hearts.

### 1/5 — No longer supports restoring purchase

*2025-11-25, version 1.5*

I loved this game and paid for unlimited plays. I had to redownload the game and was even willing to pay for unlimited hearts again but it only asks me if I want to restore the purchase. I click yes but it never works. I reached out to the developers and they never responded. I’m stuck waiting to play even though I purchased this feature! It’s maddening. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Warning: in app purchases are broken

*2025-10-01*

In app purchases seem to be busted in 2025. Restore purchases doesn’t work for unlimited hearts, the item bundles don’t get applied when you buy them.

### 1/5 — I paid, but didn't get the dlc

*2025-08-31*

I paid for unlimited hearts but didn't get the item. Fraud

### 1/5 — Unlimited hearts

*2025-05-30, version 1.5*

Purchased the one time purchase TWICE. For unlimited hearts and it is not giving it to me

### 1/5 — As another review reads, self aware trash game

*2024-05-15, version 1.5*

Don’t download it, hideously long ads with unbelievably bad progression … despite buying infinite lives - which provides you no real benefit in this game. 

Hard to enjoy this game with the amount of time and unbelievably unbeneficial upgrading  of characters for 1% of a chance to do something so minor that it has no impact. 

Somethings in my life I regret, easily in the top 10 in bad decisions for my life this year… I suspect it won’t be moving off the list. 

Devolver, get a grip.

### 1/5 — Pay but still get spammed for ads.

*2024-01-04*

Game is set so hard that you’ll constantly be prompted to watch ads for more time to complete mission (which you have to click “no” to 2x after every attempt) After paying for premium.

Yeah paying for this one was a mistake

### 1/5 — Devolver Scam

*2023-08-08*

Devolver of all companies I did not expect this scammy garbage from. It’s nothing but ad spam after ad spam by the time you hit past level 30 because 60 seconds does not cut it. They push for you to pay as constantly as possible but luckily I’ve played enough trash to mnow better. The ads made me delete this garbage and that’s why you shouldn’t download it.

### 5/5 — Весело много персонажей

*2026-06-29*

Оч весёлая игра многих пермонажей знаю некоторых нет. А так игра прикольная!

### 5/5 — Purchases don’t work

*2026-05-24, version 1.5*

Tried to restore my unlimited hearts purchase and it says it all good to go from apple but the game doesn’t show it :(

### 5/5 — I love you devolver

*2025-12-22, version 1.5*

Take my money

### 5/5 — No ads, limited hearts, but pay once to unlock the full experience

*2025-11-21*

I like these games where you pay a very small amount of money to enjoy the good stuff, also It has no ads but limited hearts, the game can make you to take a break of playing the game, but If you want to enjoy it forever then pay it once for just $2, no subscription required! It’s not like those apps where they want you to subscribe and grab your money every month when you’re not using the app, that’s not what we want! We want to pay it once!
Mobile gaming is good but the business strategy of microtransactions every month is very unfair and this game doesn’t do that!

### 5/5 — Great game for casual time

*2025-05-05, version 1.5*

Do you have a minute to spare for a quick game of popping bubbles?  Well similar to bubbles this game replaces it with heads from different characters from beloved Devolver Digital published titles.  Gameplay loop is easy to pick up where you just match and pop heads to gain bonuses and hot streaks and try to achieve as many points as possible. A game can last up to a min but usually you will finish faster and you can keep leveling up from there.  It has a theme of poking fun at the “mobile gaming” industry so it has jokes written all over some more hidden than others.  Def worth picking up for some quick fun. <3

### 5/5 — Poinpy

*2025-01-16, version 1.5*

It has Poinpy so yeah

### 5/5 — Devolver is the GOAT

*2024-11-02, version 1.5*

Want games you can play that challenge your skills and imagination? Look no further!!! Devolver games are works of art and Tumbler is just a piece of what they strive to perfect! Trust in Devolver pays off every time!

### 5/5 — Heaps fun

*2024-06-30*

Played again for the first time in years - enjoying all the quality of life changes

### 5/5 — Better than Hotline Miami

*2024-03-29, version 1.5*

A little disappointed that they didn’t add the characters from Mother Russia Bleeds.

### 5/5 — Devolver

*2024-03-04, version 1.5*

Keep making good games. I’m addicted to your mobile game. Make hotline 3 or I ddos you.
