You can't get past 3.....if you get even close to the head, you're dead. Seriously the worst game ever...... ### 1/5 — Worst game since all other flappy bird knockoffs *2016-05-11* I would rate lower than one star, but Apple is too optimistic in regards to their applications. I know Carmelo Anthony said them at there's a free iPad if you get 20, but that's entirely impossible. You can maybe get two on a good run. Maybe. There is no possible way to do good at this game. It's basically Flappy Bird but with a giant head, making it impossible to go through the pipes, or in this game, other giant heads. It's the worst game I have ever played. ### 1/5 — 😒 *2016-05-11, version 1.8* Boring.... ### 1/5 — It is bad *2016-05-11, version 1.8* The detection needs work I am by the heads and it kills me ### 1/5 — games is absolute trash *2016-05-11, version 1.8* dont download it ### 1/5 — Fake *2016-05-11, version 1.8* This game is just an ordinary flappy bird fake version! ### 1/5 — noooo *2016-05-11, version 1.8* cnt beat 1 ### 1/5 — This game is a waste of memory. *2016-05-11, version 1.8* Waste of memory. ### 1/5 — Awful *2016-05-11, version 1.8* It's impossible ### 2/5 — Hoop thing lol *2016-05-11, version 1.8* Boring because there heads are too big so they don't fit through ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — AWSOME *2016-06-08, version 1.8* This game is fun but hard✅ ### 5/5 — To hard ahhhh!!!!! *2016-05-17* Impossible and I don't think you get an iPad all I have to say is impossible!!!!!😫😫 ### 5/5 — Where's my iPad? *2016-05-16* I got 24 on the game.
