### 4/5 — Wo ist der Ton?

*2022-03-09*

Hat mir auf jeden Fall Kindheitserinnerungen in mir geweckt. Dazu mit neuen Charakteren zum rutschen.
Aber WO IST DER TON? Die Musik war immer mit das geilste an dem Spiel! 
Ich brauche die Orginalmusik!

### 5/5 — 1/2022 Update Fixed!

*2022-01-10, version 0.8.106*

1/2022 Update Fixed!  -5 updated to 5 stars!!  (  Apple Silicon support!)

### 5/5 — Extreme Tux Racer

*2021-11-21*

Великолепная игра, хороший порт

### 5/5 — Works great on my M1 Air

*2021-10-14*

Fantastic blast from the past, the kids love it :)

### 4/5 — Simple but Fun

*2021-01-31, version 0.7.501*

This is a simple app with graphics that are a bit dated, but fun nonetheless. If you are looking for a game that can be played by children without frustrating them, this is it. My siblings and I used to play this when younger and it kept us entertained. As an adult now, this game is quite simplistic, but good if you are bored at the airport, or in need of a break from the world for a bit. 

There are several avatars to choose from (Tux, Trixie, Boris, and a few others) and the passes range from the super easy bunny hill to the trickier narrow passes. The weather and lighting conditions are adjustable too. Game play is easy to do on a keyboard using the arrow keys and your avatar is capable of speeding up, braking, turning, etc. 

If you are tired of seeing advertisements on other games and want a game you can play mindlessly, this is for you. I would not expect anything intense or challenging from it, but for the price and the ease of use, I consider it worth it.

### 1/5 — Stürzt sofort ab

*2021-01-10*

Schade. Ich habe auf meinem Linux Rechner den Tux Racer wiederentdeckt und wollte ihn auch auf dem Mac spielen. Leider bricht das Spiel sofort nach dem Start ab.

**Developer response:** Hi, Please try the recently released version 0.8.106. There is a fix for crashes on older macOS versions.

### 1/5 — Crash on Start.

*2025-01-16*

The app crashes and cannot be used when trying to launch it on the Mac Mini 2024.

### 1/5 — not working on M1 :(

*2024-03-25*

please fix it

### 1/5 — crashes on open

*2023-08-09, version 0.8.106*

the game crashes immediately upon opening

### 1/5 — Doesn't open

*2023-02-26, version 0.8.106*

Wasted $1.99 on it. 

Downloaded it but it just does not open.

### 1/5 — Did not open

*2023-02-04, version 0.8.106*

I paid for the app, but it would not open on macOS 12.6 (error).

### 1/5 — Nostalgie - nur leider nicht praktikabel

*2023-01-21*

In den früheren Versionen lief das Spiel auch auf den M1 Macs hervorragend. Jetzt stürzt es jedes Mal beim Start einfach grundlos ab. Sehr schade.

Ursprüngliche Rezension
Jeden Cent wert! Es fehlen zwar ein paar alte Strecken, mit denen ich Kindheitserinnerungen verbinde, dennoch läuft das Spiel flott, flüssig und angenehm und erinnert mich an die guten alten Zeiten...

### 1/5 — Can´t open the game

*2023-01-03*

### 1/5 — Can't open it on M2

*2022-12-15*

Although the 0.8.106 update claims that Apple Silicon support has been added, which might me true, I can't open the game on my MacBook Air M2 without it crashing

### 1/5 — Looks like it's not Apple Silicon compatible

*2022-10-22*

Just bought and wanted to play a nice round. The app crashed immediately and not even a window or full screen opened.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-01-24*

I first played this well over 10 years ago on a PC and was absolutely amazed at how cool it was. The translation to an iPhone app works really well and great credit to both the original authors and the guys who have created this version. Thanks for sharing your work 👍

### 5/5 — 5 stars!

*2024-12-17*

Great game that I forgot existed! Would be good to see Super Tux Kart on the App Store as well

### 5/5 — Awesome Game

*2024-09-20, version 0.8.106*

Best mobile game ever, love the tilt feature and gameplay.

### 5/5 — Extrême Tux Racer

*2024-07-24*

👍

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2024-05-23, version 0.8.106*

The PC version of this used to be my favorite game as a kid and now I am happy to have it on my phone! I also love the new features it has and I am happy the app is free! Thank you to the developer for making this!

### 5/5 — Good fun with an old friend

*2024-01-10*

I'm old. Tux Racer was a beloved game for me some twenty years ago. It was fun to stumble upon this port. It's quite well done.

### 5/5 — Snow Forever

*2022-12-08, version 0.8.106*

The best game = most addictive, most enjoyable. It will haunt your dreams.

### 5/5 — Works still well on MacOS 10.15.7 (Intel)

*2022-10-22*

The game works still well on my old MacBook from mid 2012 on MacOS 10.15.7

### 5/5 — It works!

*2022-07-29*

I would pay more for all the other missing old tracks! Love it

### 5/5 — Repaired to full glory!

*2022-01-11, version 0.8.106*

I am embarrassed to think about how many hours I’ve spent on my PC playing this game. Its very addictive. This version had a glitch that I reported to the developer. He promptly made the change per my request and emailed me back. I appreciate the attention given to a user, I appreciate (tremendously) the Apple report that no information is collected, and I’ll be glad to waste a ridiculous amount of time on the phone version now!  Thanks Dimitri.
