This game has a quirky sense of humour which I found to be pretty entertaining. Similar to wacky shooters like Parodius, this game throws crazy stuff at you like seagulls who attack by pooping. If that sounds funny to you then I say check this game out. My only gripe is that with your fingers on the screen they can sometimes block your view of oncoming enemies and dangers. ### 4/5 — Adorable little game *2014-04-07, version 1.2.0* fun and cute. I love the art style and the tight controls. Looking forward to more from this developer ### 3/5 — Très beau mais trop dure :-( *2012-09-28* Un R-Type original ! Par contre la difficulté est un peu trop élevé, c'est bien dommage... Pourquoi ne pas faire des chapitres ? ### 5/5 — Awsome *2012-09-04, version 1.1.0* It's sad. No one in my school knows this game ### 5/5 — An amazing game *2012-06-08, version 1.1.0* This game was super fun . Each level offered funny surroundings and characters. ### 5/5 — Excellent ! *2012-05-20* Une belle ode au hardcore gaming, agréable à l'oeil, difficile à souhait, et pleine de secrets. Et surtout remplie d'humour ! ### 5/5 — I LOVE this app! *2012-03-05, version 1.1.0* Cute, a lot of fun to play...so many fun characters in it! Great job!! ### 2/5 — Levels that end would be great. *2011-12-01, version 1.1.0* Having to start over, gets really annoying. Getting past 4 levels and then losing and starting back on level 1 can get really repetitive. I suggest make alot of different levels, and not having to start over back to the first one. Just start on the one you lost at. That would make this game 10x better and more fun to play! :) ### 3/5 — Need a save button!!!!! *2011-11-15, version 1.1.0* It's a cute game and all but it needs a save after every level or something so that you don't have to start from level 1 all the time! I like this game but it's hard to get pass level 2! ### 3/5 — Crashes *2011-10-08, version 1.1.0* I used to love this game... I had earned 10 credits but, now it won't open to play anymore... This needs to be fixed like ASAP. ### 5/5 — Secret *2011-10-02, version 1.1.0* Great game!!! Here's a helpful secret! On the first round, before the first boss battle (as ur flying through the air) put the hamster on the bottom of the screen, you'll get explosive eggs as a weapon and can beat the boss in one hit. ### 5/5 — Fun! *2011-09-27, version 1.1.0* It's true, the game is pretty difficult, but that's the fun of it! I suggest not to pass up this game. It's fun, addictive, and the characters are down-right adorable. ### 3/5 — Fun but too hard! *2011-09-25, version 1.1.0* Fun game, excellent graphics but way to hard. Your credits should refill after each level! ### 4/5 — Hamsta *2011-09-17, version 1.1.0* It's cool and fun ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Dead app *2022-06-26* Stuck on loading screen. Oh well you got my money years ago who cares if I can access the thing I paid for right? ### 1/5 — Does not work *2021-11-20* App does not work. Do not waste your money. ### 1/5 — Can't play *2011-09-13, version 1.1.0* Is crashing in the beginning, won't let me play none. Purchase and free Version crash on my iPod 4g. ;-( ### 1/5 — DOESNT WORK *2011-07-24, version 1.1.0* Doesnt work on 4gen it crashes :( ### 1/5 — Omg! Glad I got it for free!!! *2011-05-23, version 1.1.0* If they want me to save hamsters by buying games, then make a better game! Controls are a little off, but responsive most of the time. There isn't a functioning save option. And really for what you get it's not worth 2.99! Maybe 99 cents, but three bucks? Ouch. Got it free and happy I did! ### 1/5 — Geht nich *2011-05-22* Bei meinem ipod 4G funsts nich immer wenn ich spiel starten drück werd ich aus dem spiel gekickt :( ### 1/5 — Japanischer Müll *2011-05-18* Und man fängt immer wieder von vorne an! Einmal gespielt und wieder gelöscht! ### 1/5 — 操作性がゴミ *2011-05-18* 世界観などは可愛くしようとしてるけど、ゲームとして楽しめないレベル ### 1/5 —  *2011-05-18, version 1.1.0* I would rate it more than one star if it actually opened! It goes to where I can press PLAY and when I do it just crashes!!!! FIX FIX FIX!!! pLeAsE  ### 1/5 — Same as the first review... *2011-01-08*  ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 15年ぶりに *2026-06-22* 当時やってたガキですが、久しぶりにやっても面白いです。懐かしい記憶が蘇りました ### 5/5 — Loved this game when I was younger but it doesn’t work *2022-02-28* I bought this without looking at the reviews I used to play this on my mom outdated and un updated iPad it was my childhood n I loved this game sm but now it doesn’t work :,) ### 5/5 — Miss you guys *2021-07-02* The app is dead. But i still remember it, it was a great game ### 5/5 — Addicting! *2015-09-02* Fun, addicting game. I love it! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2015-07-19* This is like a flying sonic the hamster. Super happy sound track, really creative enemies and ammunition. Works with my steelseries controller. Very few games out there with this much effort. ### 5/5 — Juste genial *2014-11-11* Un jeu simple mais pas trop dont la logique cenaristique est assez inexistante, un pure chef d'oeuvre pour moi. ### 5/5 — OMG SO CUTE! *2014-10-31* super fun game ;o ### 5/5 — Thanks for upgrade *2014-04-08, version 1.2.0* Favorite game I love it ### 5/5 — Awesome shmup!!! *2014-04-07, version 1.2.0* Extremely fun and pretty darn hysterical and well... Cute. The sequel is an action puzzle platformer and it looks awesome. Check it out in kick starter!!! ### 5/5 — ✨😄BEST GAME EVER!😭✨ *2013-02-05, version 1.1.0* I LOVE THIS GAME! ITS HILARIOUS FUN! Its hard at first but if u practice a lot it gets addicting. I played this game so much that i ended up having about 30 TOKENS! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
