### 2/5 — No sound very frequently

*2026-04-11, version 1.4*

Autistic brother loves hearing the fireworks as he swipes across and taps the screen. But the sound stops working within 5 mins, if it even works when it is opened, and is now causing him to have meltdowns. Have to delete the app now because it’s not reliable. A shame because he has loved it for years on other devices.

### 5/5 — Great for special needs

*2026-03-17, version 1.4*

Love this game for my child who is visually impaired and has cerebral palsy.  He has trouble manipulating objects, but he can touch the screen anywhere and make fireworks; it makes him proud to be able to get a reaction wherever he touches.

### 5/5 — Love the Firewoy

I was looking for an offline game that didn’t use too many mbs and was entertaining and I found it with Fireworks Arcade. The exploding balls look like real fireworks going off and have sound effects too. Fun for young and old . Great distraction for little kids who can’t sit still and even in an iPad the kitty will law at the moving objects. Lots of game varieties too. Give it a try!
