I would GLADLY pay for the game if you brought back lasso mode. ### 3/5 — Full version *2025-01-14* What happened to full version This is just the “Pulse” level from the original, classical m, complete game!! Please bring it back!! ### 3/5 — Been playing this game since the iPhone 4 *2024-03-13* I’ve played this game for a while. It was beautiful! However recently, the developers amped up and shrank the hit detection box on your character, making the game a lot more difficult. The super close swooshes past the enemy made the game exciting!! Now it feels stiff. ### 3/5 — Please bring back the classic version. *2024-02-21* As the title suggests and others have already requested, please bring back the classic version of this game. This was such a comfort game for me back on the iPod touch and I’m very happy I discovered it again after all these years, but I’m really disappointed that it isn’t the same. I would gladly pay for a classic version, please!!!!!! ### 4/5 — Good game but... *2023-09-03* What are the coins for? And it gets boring after a while you should do a update.... ### 2/5 — Review *2021-12-18* Please leave the old version online again!!! ### 3/5 — Bring back the old Spirit!! *2020-11-08* I loved this game! (I would rate it higher but I want the old version back where you had different game modes!) Over the last 6-8 years I bought this game several times for the different phones I purchased. I be willing to pay for the old version again! This new Spirit is still fun but it lacks some of the key elements that made the older one great! I still have my old iPhone and find myself playing the old version more than this one! Please bring back the old “Spirit”!! Hopefully, you’ll be bringing it back soon and I look forward to getting it again! Thanks!! -DJ ### 2/5 — Зачем??? *2020-10-23* Вы запороли игру... Я играл в неё 4 года назад. Там была куча режимов, моделек. Теперь же. Я прихожу и вижу один самый убогий режим из всех тех, что были раньше. Это ужасно. Верните платность игры, или сделайте платное дополнение! Но не так же... я вернулся и ушёл через 3 минуты. Прошу! Верните мне ту самую игру!! ;( ### 2/5 — Blah *2020-07-25* In all honesty I haven’t really played this new version, I’m just bummed they totally changed it, I much prefer circling things myself. I used to crack out on the original game for way too much time! So many good games just fall by the wayside, I don’t get it. ### 4/5 — Buen juego adictivo pero... *2020-04-07, version 1.1* Era mejor la version anterior! Que podias girar y hacer las burbujas vos mismo aprte de las que aparecen ### 2/5 — Miss The Old Spirit *2020-03-25* This game used to be one of the most fun, compelling and captivating games. But ever since the creators removed most of the modes and only left the “Pulse” mode on (which btw was always the most boring mode), it’s definitely boring and repetitive. I miss the old Spirit game. This one pales in comparison. ### 2/5 — Not the same as the original version *2020-01-29* I am just glad I have the old version on an outdated ipad2 mini. Still a fun game. ### 3/5 — Don’t make it like they used to *2019-11-24* What happened to classic and extreme modes? An empty shell compared to its former glory. I’d be happy to pay to get get the old modes. Yes dev, that’s a hint... ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Owner Of the Game READ READ READ *2024-06-06* What happened to the full version of the game ?? This is like only half, the version I remember playing was the when you had levels to play and each level with different enemies, also there was a smooth song that was playing while you played the game ### 1/5 — Ruined a perfect game *2023-07-09* The original version was absolutely brilliant. I spent hours playing it. I downloaded this ‘new’ version and deleted it within a minute. Somethings are best left alone. ### 1/5 — bring back the original Spirit! *2022-02-11, version 1.1* I do not mind if I would have to pay for the base game and the skin pack like before. That's how good the original game was, and I miss it dearly. Please revive Spirit ### 1/5 — Это не спирит а ерунда *2019-12-19* У меня на старом ipad стоит spirit for ipad и он топ , там и режимы другие есть и жизни можно собирать и покупать даже другие модельки спирита если ! Пускай игра будет платная но как раньше , очень много сейчас игр испортили бесплатными версиями но при этом постоянная рекламы и сплошной донат ### 1/5 — No paid version? *2019-11-17, version 1.1* Where is the paid version? I already purchased it, but no longer can’t find its download. ### 1/5 — pants *2019-10-24* this exquisite game has been reduced to a singularity. why? used to be awesome, now it's too fleeting. bring back the proper game damn it !! ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2019-02-01* I loved the original vortex game and I dislike the new version. Where is the old gameplay? ### 1/5 — ᎪᎷᎪᏃᏆNᏩ.

It stopped updating at some point and I could not play anymore so I deleted it. A few years later, I was delighted to find it again on App Store but the ame I loved playing isn’t on this. The black hole one. It had levels and bonus games. I miss that one. ### 2/5 — Serious bug *2022-08-28* The game has a serious bug that makes it almost impossible to play at higher levels on an iPad. Your ship is offset from your finger position so that you can see it while moving around. That’s a great feature. The problem is that if your ship touches the bottom edge of the screen, the iPad will respond as if you had really touched the bottom edge of the screen, causing the game to pause. Then, unpausing the game at a higher level almost always leads to your ship being immediately overrun by critters and you losing the game. It’s extremely frustrating. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Топ *2025-11-26* Не знаю почему люди пишут что всего один гейм-мод, но нужно просто нажать на квадратик 3D-шный где и сидит там spirit и там есть все режимы для которых необходимо необходимо набрать поинты Если отзыв полезен нажмите полезно. ### 5/5 — Dynamic Island covers score *2025-06-10* I love this game. But I just got a new iPhone 16 and now the Dynamic Island covers the score on top. Can we please fix this?? ### 5/5 — Does collecting the rings affect anything? *2024-06-30* Great game, been playing for years but still unsure if the rings have a purpose. ### 5/5 — Разработчик, верни игру быстрее! *2023-05-29* Я хочу чтобы ты вернул нормальную версию игры. У меня на ipad 3 стоит старая версия игры которая называется spirit for ipad, и в ней нету никаких приставок free. В ней есть нормальный классический уровень, где пальцем нужно быстро крутить и делать чёрные дыры, для поглощения врагов. И я требую чтобы ты разработчик, вернул эту версию игры в App Store, чтобы другие люди тоже могли ей насладиться. Если не вернёшь, то ты вонючка и будешь ей всегда, никогда не изменишься. Давай даю тебе шанс спастись и вернуть себе достоинство, путём возврата нормальной версии игры. ### 5/5 — The simplest are often the best *2022-11-15* Insanely addictive and challenging. One life to get the highest score you can. Have played this for years now. ### 5/5 — Love this game *2022-10-12* I’ve still got the original game on my iPod just wish it was the same when you download on to the new phone ### 5/5 — Please return more modes for the game *2022-03-07* We need more modes ### 5/5 — Really beautiful :) *2021-10-17* Many tnx for making this game! ### 5/5 — Второй раз обнуляют статистику *2020-06-05* Ну что я могу сказать, это игра аналога geometry wars. Все хорошо, но блин зачем второй раз обнулять мой рекорд? Или это само по себе происходит? 4.5 ляма был рекорд, теперь снова 0 ### 5/5 — The other half *2020-05-15* This game used to have two sides. It stopped updating at some point and I could not play anymore so I deleted it. A few years later, I was delighted to find it again on App Store but the ame I loved playing isn’t on this.
