### 3/5 — It stopped being cool

*2024-03-09*

I got to the roof after climbing the scaffolding and was met with a Gta V stunt race track. Why dosn't he climb a really tall building? Maybe one that is under construction, with cranes holding metal beams that swing and garbage chutes that send you down a few floors if you fall in them. Perhaps have other bean construction workers being busy, and getting hurt with tools so the game can be like the others where it teaches something about safety. An app about personal protective equipment. I know it says it was built in a week, so maybe it could do with more development?

### 5/5 — Better then the original

*2024-02-06*

Do you like only up? Do you like dumb ways to die? Well this is the game for you! I love this game it’s so much better then only up its more controllable and more fun I definitely recommend this game!!!!!!😊game development team please read my review I love your game so much thank you

### 4/5 — Good game to hard

*2024-02-02*

I like the game but it’s just too hard like I haven’t gotten to the end yet and I don’t now if the hole game is one level.    TO The CREATORS  I love the game but you make it too hard so here’s some things it needs 1 it needs to be a little shorter 2 it needs to be easier because every time I fall I fall into the street again and it’s game over 3 if it is all ono level I’d like to have more levels so that I can play longer if you do that the game will be perfect!

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2024-01-21*

I play this game every time I go into a van while I wait to get the free candy that the stranger promised

### 5/5 — Fun

*2024-01-01*

I got to the weird candy world under the weird area that was creepy…it took me 35 minutes

### 2/5 — Must fix this

*2023-11-28*

I was playing and enjoyed it and got as far as I got and the game just crashed and brought me back to square 1… I did not do anything to get there. And I also read some of the other reviews and apparently the game crashed at the same moment (the dart board) as others. I had a lot of fun but now I don’t even wanna play because of getting cut off again. Definitely fix this problem whoever made the game!

### 5/5 — The sun was

*2023-11-10*

The sun is out the moon is now on the moon and back on earth 🌎 the moon is beautiful and I love 💕 and moon moon but it will grow up and to be the sun shining in my life and then it is my first stage and my favorite song ever again and then I love the moon and back to earth I am 📻 my love of love the princess I am so blessed with my aunt in the princess of my life cycle and I am not a fan of the sun

### 4/5 — Best mobile version of Only Up, even though that’s a very low bar to achieve

*2023-10-14*

Lots of people complaining about this being a ripoff, unoriginal, and whatnot, but it’s from a relatively reputable company and the original game is not only not on mobile, the game is gone outright on PC. This is a great alternative for casual play. Playing on an iPhone 14, I had no issues with the performance or crashing. Minor stuttering, but nothing game breaking.

### 1/5 — Not funny Dislike

*2023-09-22*

This game is so bad the environment’s art style consists of free models downloaded from some kind of free library with a dumb ways to die bean slapped onto it. How did this pass quality control I will never know (game crashes at the dart board so it’s impossible)

### 2/5 — Crashes too often

*2023-09-10*

I have an iPhone 14 pro max and this game consistently crashes higher up in the map, really frustrating hope this gets fixed soon
