### 3/5 — It’s ok I guess

*2026-08-27, version 3.97.1*

It’s not as good as it was…

### 4/5 — Amazing Game! BUT TOO LAGGY

*2026-08-23, version 3.97.1*

I just downloaded this, why do I have to click the fruits twice to break it. Upgrade the quality of this game.

### 3/5 — one tiny issue

*2026-08-21, version 3.97.1*

randomly the game just stopped working completely and crashes whenever i opened it

### 3/5 — Dojo uses/leadership board

*2026-08-19, version 3.97.1*

Love the game but confused what dojos upgrades are for. It says coming soon but with each upgrade everything stays the same. Love how the blades upgrade carries diff powers making them more fun. 

Also can we get the leadership board by game going?

### 4/5 — Good game but too many ads

*2026-08-18, version 3.97.1*

I love the game, but there’s a lot of ads

### 4/5 — Nostalgia overload

*2026-08-17, version 3.97.1*

I remember playing this game a lot, but the ads suck, because as soon as I want to play a different mode, they hit me with an ad, besides that I find this still enjoyable.

### 4/5 — Too many advertisements

*2026-08-17, version 3.97.1*

This game is great. The only problem is that after you finish a game, it gives you an ad which leaves you with for options. 1. You give in and watch the ad. 2. You buy no ads for $1.99. 3. You refresh the game and wait for it to load. 4. You get off the game. Overall, if Halfbrick could either reduce the frequency of the ads or remove them entirely, I’d give this game five stars.

### 4/5 — It’s good, but it’s not the best

*2026-08-08, version 3.97.1*

I would personally give it a five star, but it’s not the best game in the world so that’s why I give it a four star if you could get any better I would probably give it a five star by now it’s a great game to be honest
