### 2/5 — Ok

*2019-02-14*

I’ve never paid for mobile game but I had to get this one, there’s not another game out there like it, so I played the all the dolls games but when it comes to miss Emily the controls start Buffon out. Can’t open doors the directional keys on the left of the screen moves up from where it traditionally is and somehow when I try and open doors to find the little brat I get turned around somehow and every second of those 75 are precious. Please fix this or is the operator? (I doubt it) I might have to get the Xbox version to truly experience little miss Emily and dolls.  

            Yours truly-gonna find that brat

### 3/5 — I paid for it!!!

*2018-09-07*

I originally had to purchase the game for $6.99 and now they just released a free version of the same game. People who bought the game should either be given refunds or the app should have to be purchased instead of being free.

### 4/5 — The App Works

*2018-08-20*

I can confirm that the developers of this app seem to have fixed some bugs and works fine on my phone (iphone 6s). The game is pretty good, however some improvements could be made. The first few hours are incredibly easy, until you get to the hide and seek mode which is more difficult. The final hour is proving impossible for me especially since the dolls tend to glitch, for example sometimes they do not emit a spawn/leaving sound.

### 1/5 — READ BEFORE BUYING

*2018-07-14, version 1.0*

It won’t work on the iPhone X and probably not the 8 also. The makers of this game need to create an update for all phones I wil make it a 5 star once they get that update. Hurry up and make the update👍👌

### 1/5 — Emily wants to play

*2018-07-09, version 1.0*

### 1/5 — Can I have my money back

*2018-07-07*

### 1/5 — Mad

*2018-07-04, version 1.0*

### 1/5 — DO NOT BYE

*2018-07-03, version 1.0*

This game crashes every single time I opened it wast of money would give 0 if possible! Please do not bye!

### 5/5 — Good port

*2018-06-19*

After I loved the original game on pc I decided to buy it on mobile and it’s still the same game as the pc it’s just as scary and fun. My only problem is that I hate the fact that the lights are always off and they hand u a flashlight Willy nilly, and I hate that the look sensitivity is really high and u can’t change it. But other then that its a great port.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2018-06-17*

### 1/5 — READ PLEASE

*2019-12-22*

I am on a iPad Pro a updated one and the games not working it keeps crashing can you please update it so that iPad pros can use it

### 1/5 — Why?

*2019-02-09, version 1.2*

For some reason, it will not play the game. It will freeze and after about 10 seconds, crash. If you could help in some way, it will get 5 stars. Fix it or I want a refund.

### 1/5 — 🙁

*2018-07-30, version 1.0*

I saw game plays and I was really excited to get this game but it doesn’t work. It won’t let me open the app at all so I wasn’t able to play it $3 down the drain I’m pretty upset. I hope they fix it but I kinda just want my money back at this point

### 1/5 — Don’t buy!!!

*2018-07-26, version 1.0*

Spent 2.99 only for it not to even work. Force shuts every time.

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2018-07-24, version 1.0*

When I clicked the app, it just kicked me off. Then I tried turning my phone off and then back on and it did the same thing. Well, I just wasted three dollars.

### 1/5 — Won’t open

*2018-07-21*

Iphone 8 plus

Game not working.

### 1/5 — IT GLITCHES BAD!!!

*2018-07-15, version 1.0*

I used all the rest on my first card money on this app and it doesn’t work.I tried deleting at re-downloading this app and it still does not work.When I go onto this app it leads me to a black screen and I wait and it backs me out to my phone screen! I was so exited to buy this app because I watched a lot of youtubers play this game and my friend downloaded it and it worked for her I was so upset that I didn’t get to play and it took my money! I didn’t read the reviews because I was so exited to get the app and yet it doesn’t work I’ve tried a lot of things and yet it’s still glitched I can’t get it to work and that makes me really mad because the company needs to fix the crashes because it’s happend to a lot of people!!! I recommend not getting this app unless you want to waste your money on something that doesn’t work...:)

### 5/5 — Huge change

*2021-02-21*

The game is  really good now, I was reading all of the bad reviews but then I realized they were from like years ago but the game is really good it’s just like the real game

### 5/5 — AMAZING!!!

*2019-06-19, version 1.2*

This is one of the best games I've ever played before in my life. Totally AMAZING. It's really scary and that's a reason why I like it because I'm addicted to horror games. I just wanna say fore the creators of this game GOOD FREAKING JOB!

### 5/5 — Awsome Game Series!

*2019-05-07*

I love the Emily Wants To Play Series, and so far I’ve bought all of them!

There is a problem with the controls pad, involving quick glitches of movement when carefully dragged. I also think that Emily Wants To Play Too is a bit smoother.

The bright side is that the game is amazing and very scary. The environment is horrifying, and the game is replayable and fun every time!

### 5/5 — Very scary but I beat it

*2018-12-13, version 1.2*

It should have seasonal mods and dress Kiki , Chester, mr. tatters, and Emily dressed up

### 5/5 — Thanks for the idea

*2018-11-06*

I am not going to waste my time. So I played it and so called chester I heard his laugh and this the 7th time they came at same time. I saw kiki first looked behind me there was kiki I was in a big room wich I think the living room. Chester was running so i wasn’t looking at kiki at all because i was running got in the other room looked behind did not see kiki looked my other way  behind me she wouldn’t there I didn’t die but it was a nice idea so thanks

**Developer response:** His name is Chester. Together, Kiki and Chester are a mean combo, but Kiki is slow and you can keep looking at her while running backwards.

### 5/5 — Still awesome

*2018-08-07, version 1.1*

The game is still awesome to this day but will the sequel come out for mobile?

### 5/5 — It’s great but....

*2018-07-17*

When are you guys going to make available for iPhone 8 and up? Please, do this extremely soon.

### 5/5 — Refund

*2018-07-06, version 1.0*

Better give me my refund you scammer

### 5/5 — REFUN

*2018-07-01, version 1.0*

This keeps on glitching and won’t even let me get in the game it just goes to a black screen and kicks me out😩😐😡PLEASE GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK

### 5/5 — Okay but...

*2018-06-24*

This game is the scariest game i have ever played but theres one problem, whenever i play the game the volume doesn't work so i have to put on headphones and it hurts my ear. Please fix the volume problem and it will get a five star 👍🏻👍🏻
