### 4/5 — Quite Fun

*2026-08-28, version 1.3.9*

This game is really fun, it’s a great way to spend time when you’re bored, all the mini games are super fun and are unique in their own way, being honest, I would recommend for someone looking for a fun game to play!

### 4/5 — It’s ok

*2026-08-26, version 1.3.9*

I don’t like the fact you have to move your phone as well but all around ok

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2026-08-07, version 1.3.9*

Good besides the adds

### 5/5 — Nostalgic

*2026-07-20, version 1.3.9*

What can I say? It still holds up and I love all the mini games

### 5/5 — I is so awesome

*2026-07-19, version 1.3.9*

I love how it has no adds and it’s super funny

### 4/5 — Car rides

*2026-07-19, version 1.3.9*

This game is great for car rides and flying in planes. If you like riddles you will like this game but sometimes it gets hard.

### 2/5 — Ads mid-game and micro-transactions

*2026-07-18, version 1.3.9*

I have nostalgia for the older dwtd games but I can’t stand this trend in mobile games now. Every game has to have an in-game store to unlock everything right away for money and annoying intrusive ads. If you want to play them after a game concludes that’s fine but having to watch an ad every 4-5 mini games makes you watch like 10 ads if you’re on a long run. WTH???

### 5/5 — Funniest game I’ve ever played!

*2026-07-15, version 1.3.9*

The mini games are very unique and tell some sort of story. 10/10 in my book.

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-07-15, version 1.3.9*

I almost died and I healed my cuts and bandage myself and then hopped on it’s fun …I almost died because of a squirrel

### 5/5 — SO HILARIOUS I’m ROFL

### 5/5 — LOVE IT

*2026-07-05, version 1.3.9*

This is really fun you should play it if you haven’t! still don’t know how the bean on FIRE GOT HIS HEAD IGNITED but yea you should get it.

### 5/5 — Saved my cousins life.

*2026-06-28, version 1.3.9*

So yes you read the title correctly, so I was at a family birthday party and I let my little cousin use my phone, and he said “ yo can I play this game?” And I said “yeah dude is there any game yall are gonna play after?” And he said, “yeah we are gonna play hide and seek and I have the best spot!” So I let him play for a little then the hide and seek started and his great idea was to hide in the washing machine. And one of the little minigames was don’t go in the washer or you will die and LUCKILY HE REMEMBERED. So that’s basically how a kids game saved a kid.

### 4/5 — Absolutely Amazing, Just one thing

*2026-06-28, version 1.3.9*

It has ads! Still great game. Be safe around trains.

### 5/5 — Wow just wow

*2026-06-26, version 1.3.9*

I’ve never played the first one. This is the first time I played these kinds of games. It’s kind of sad when those little bones die but other than that it’s pretty fun. I’m addicted now.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2026-06-23, version 1.3.9*

It is super fun I’m glad I downloaded it but I wish it was offline. So I can play it on a plane and on a trip. I don’t understand why it needs internet

### 1/5 — Defective App

*2026-06-30, version 1.3.9*

I paid for the app to remove its many ads. Since then, I have not been able to get away from the Home Screen. Everytime I press play to begin, the game remains stuck.

### 1/5 — WHY

*2026-06-26, version 1.3.9*

First of all, this game does not even come close to the original, what is this?? Why are we saving the characters aren’t we supposed to kill them hence the name “Dumb Ways to Die”. Sending of all, I used to love this game but this game just ruined it all why is there life’s? And why is three coins and little tasks to buy stuff? Lastly, this game just ruined all of them. THE WHOLE POINT OF THE GAME IS TO KILL PEOPLE NOT HELP!!!!

This game is just awesome.

### 5/5 — Really nice

*2026-07-21, version 1.3.9*

I’ve played the first one and only the first one, so this feels like a big improvement! The game has lots to offer and is just a nice WarioWare kind of game I can just play on the go. The only thing I don’t really like is how it has ads, but it’s just a mobile game, you can’t really complain about ads. Overall, I like this game a lot and I think I’ll install any new dumb ways to die games!
