### 3/5 — Cute Mia and Teo

*2025-08-16, version 1.3.6*

Baby Mia and Teo

### 4/5 — Great fun app, but the lack of iCloud backup, save, and support.

*2023-12-01*

No matter how fun it is while it didn’t last forever, I’m still criticizing the lack of iCloud, save, backup, and support no matter why, That explains why it isn’t a must-buy with lack of anything else for anyone of them. Thank you for understanding.😌

### 4/5 — Rodland Inspired

*2020-04-08*

Not bad, not quite Rodland but you can tell the love of the genre has gone into this game

**Developer response:** Please update Drop Wizard to the latest version 1.2. I've added support for new devices, including iPhone 11 and iPhone X. Thanks for playing!

### 4/5 — Añadan más modos de juego

*2017-11-28, version 1.1*

Añadan un modo de juego en el q se pueda jugar de forma continua sin la necesidad de andar escogiendo los escenarios es muy tedioso y le quita lo “arcade” al juego

### 4/5 — 楽しい！…けど！

*2017-08-07*

日本語になってないです。

### 2/5 — CLONE di TUMBLEPOP!

*2015-12-02*

Il gioco è soltanto la brutta copia di TUMBLEPOP! L'originale è 100 volte meglio!

### 3/5 — Non parte

*2015-10-17*

Ho scaricato l'app sul mio iphone6...appena lanciata, mi rimane subito bloccato non vedo nulla...penso che sul firmware 9.0.2 magari non è ancora disponibile un upgrade dell'app

**Developer response:** Ho aggiornato la app supportando le nuove risoluzioni. Per favore aggiorna Drop Wizard all'ultima versione 1.2, grazie!

### 4/5 — Bad control

*2015-08-28, version 1.0*

I get seriously frustrated with the poor response of the directional controls. Your fingers are quick enough, but the glass isn't.

### 2/5 — Not worth the time

*2015-07-22, version 1.0*

The game has nice design and good artwork but the story of the game is horrible, and I felt like the final boss was more of a hard enemy than the dark wizard of the land. I finished the game dissatisfied and would not recommend this.

### 4/5 — Great Game - Only One Problem

*2015-06-05, version 1.0*

It's too short! I loved it and now I want more levels. Other than that, really fun.

### 4/5 — Addicting

*2015-05-21*

Super fun arcade style game. Only qualm is that I beat it and it was pretty anticlimactic. Told me I should go after all the stars. Cool! I did and then nothing happened lol. 

Still a great, addicting game. Wish they would have added more levels while I was enjoying the game. Now that it's over, I deleted it.

### 4/5 — Miss old frustrating Nintendo games?

*2015-05-07, version 1.0*

Then this game is for you. Super easy. Except for the final boss. Oh yeah, and how far they inexplicably start you from the boss. Really fun and comfy game to play. Until the final boss.

### 5/5 — Loved it!

*2015-05-05*

Great piece of gaming nostalgia, like a Bubble Bobble spin-off that never was, with enough variety and challenge to keep you playing till the end.

### 5/5 — Bello

*2015-05-04*

Bello.da 5 stelle.

### 1/5 — Risoluzione errata su pro Max

*2020-02-09*

La risoluzione è troppo alta del telefono e il gioco nn funziona bene... peccato 5 euro spesi a cavolo

**Developer response:** Ho aggiornato la app supportando le nuove risoluzioni, inclusa quella del pro Max. Per favore aggiorna Drop Wizard all'ultima versione 1.2

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on iPhone XS Max

*2019-12-19, version 1.1*

Says that it’s compatible with “my iPhone” but the game isn’t full-screen; in fact it takes up only 25% of my screen and the left/right controls don’t work.

### 1/5 — Toxique

*2017-05-08*

Non seulement l'appli ne se lance pas mais en plus ça me bloque internet sur Safari et autres.
Heureusement que j'ai pu me dépanner avec cocoatop.
Testé sur ipad pro ios 9.3 (amélioré par Pangu)

### 1/5 — 面白くなかったです

*2016-04-21*

悪い意味で裏切られました。

**Developer response:** Please update Drop Wizard to the latest version 1.2. I've added support for new devices, including iPhone 11 and iPhone X. Thanks for playing!

### 1/5 — Langweilig und Nervig

*2016-01-01*

An diesem Spiel gibt es nichts zu reparieren, es ist einfach nur total langweilig und schlecht gemacht. Geld zum Fenster rausgeworfen.

**Developer response:** Please update Drop Wizard to the latest version 1.2. I've added support for new devices, including iPhone 11 and iPhone X. Thanks for playing!

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2015-06-20, version 1.0*

The game is ok to play passing time, but it freezes constantly and doesn't go onto the next unlock set half the time, it's been deleted, too frustrating dealing with the glitches

### 1/5 — Bad

*2015-04-29, version 1.0*

Not like classic arcade games at all.  You automatically run and choose to go left or right that is all you choose to do and it is very boring.  Also has elements from super crate box but way less fun, like in this game you dont attack, you only automatically shoot a star when you drop down a level and use that to get enemies.  Wow.

### 1/5 — Horrible controls, beware & AVOID!

*2015-03-04*

Nice design, inspired in Bubble Bobble and Snow Brothers. Annoying controls and very limited gameability. If you are thinking of purchasing this one, don't make the same mistake as I did and please avoid

### 1/5 — Bastante malo para ser de pago

*2015-03-01*

Planteamiento de plataformas ochentero tipo Bubble & Bobble (guardando las distancias claro) pero que no engancha. El control es muy malo y probablemente el motivo por el que no enganche. No lo recomiendo.

### 1/5 — Misleading and Boring

*2015-01-16, version 1.0*

Looked like it was going to be a Kirby-like game. The graphics are excellent but the gameplay and controls are unfortunately not very good. Sorry.
