### 2/5 — I wish the stuff where free ugine it’s not really that fun without it

*2026-08-15, version 4.0.2*

I give it a 2 because I still kinda like it I just miss the free stuff

### 2/5 — Great game until it was bought by Piknik

*2026-08-15, version 4.0.2*

Very disappointing to have my daughter play this game freely to then having to tell her she can’t anymore because it costs money. And it’s not a little bit of money either. There is a package deal for 10 games that’s expensive. It’s like a Spotify subscription price (where you get all music) but here you get 1 game for the same price. Or nine other games you don’t want for *a little* less. It was a great source for my daughter to learn and engage. I wish it was free again or AT LEAST reasonably priced for a kids game.

### 2/5 — Hate it

*2026-08-13, version 4.0.2*

So I loved the game and then a few months later there was a new update and I can only go in two rooms was

### 2/5 — Hate the new game!

*2026-08-12, version 4.0.2*

Hate this new version as it’s now pay to play and no more mini games. My daughter played this daily and we added all of our toy codes into it and now that doesn’t matter anymore. Bring back the old version. I don’t have money to pour into this game for my daughter when it’s changed to a boring nothing to do app that costs a leg and two arms now. Stop begging for money! There is more to life than money.

### 2/5 — Pay pay pay

*2026-08-11*

You have to pay you can only play in two room all the other rooms you have to pay for +the radio doesn't work please fix this 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

### 3/5 — I love

*2026-08-10, version 4.0.2*

I love it so much❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

### 1/5 — AWFUL!!! MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED NOW

*2026-08-09*

Used to be a safe, free app. Now just another predatory “monthly subscription” money grab that you’re trying to impose on CHILDREN. Thanks for breaking my 4yo daughter’s favourite game. “Why can’t I visit MerCat anymore?” Goodbye Gabby, thanks for my kids tears. DELETE DELETE DELETE.

### 1/5 — Why would you people do this.

*2026-08-09, version 4.0.2*

So basically it’s been a while since I played this app so when I go into the app I SEE YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR IT (MIND YOU MY PARENTS WONT PAY FOR ANY GAMES FOR ME) but you guys just had to make it money all you guys do is for money. I hate you so much im 10 years old and I wanted fro play this but I guess that’s not happening

### 3/5 — Okay

*2026-08-09*

My kid plays this game a lot, but not the new one! At least make all of the locked levels free! And don’t even say 7 free day trial! Also add more surprises. (The mixer is useless as a surprise): ) Piknik, WHY?

### 1/5 — Shame on Piknik

*2026-08-08, version 4.0.2*

This app used to be fun for my daughter to play and I did not realize that the update erased all of her progress. She is very sad that she won’t be able to play her favorite game. It’s disgusting how a KIDS app is trying to take advantage of hardworking parents by putting a once free app behind paywalls.

### 1/5 — BS

*2026-08-08, version 4.0.2*

They changed the game so you have to pay

### 1/5 — I WANT THE OLD ONE BACK

*2026-08-08, version 4.0.2*

I just want the old one back bring it back now!!

### 1/5 — Abzocke

*2026-08-08*

Nach dem Update nur noch Abzocke. Nicht mit uns.

### 1/5 — I just downloaded it sux

*2026-08-07, version 4.0.2*

It’s totally sucks a just downloaded it it’s way to expensive for just four more rooms to pay for.
The reason why it’s really bad is because you just move caricature about. I mean I kinda like finding cat rat

### 3/5 — ugg

*2026-08-07, version 4.0.2*

### 1/5 — Used to be free.

*2026-08-15, version 4.0.2*

We LOVED this app.  Our kiddos love the app, but now they’ve changed the whole thing and you have to have a subscription?! Its $80/year or $12/month. This is ridiculous.  Now my kids can’t enjoy the app.  We’re extremely angry about this.

### 1/5 — When pink Nik 😾 ahh!

*2026-08-14, version 4.0.2*

OK I like the old one better when pink nik turn turned over I do not like it I like the old one I mean why can’t I just unlock the other floors with out needing to pay!? and bring back the minigames!😾

### 1/5 — You have to pay for the game 😡😾🗯️💀🤯👿👎🏻

*2026-08-14, version 4.0.2*

It’s not fair right now if you agree  say i agree

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2026-08-13, version 4.0.2*

This app used to be good, there were many games my daughter could play. Since this update, all but two are locked behind a subscription. I am not paying for something that was previously available to me for free. I get that people need to make money, but slapping a subscription fee on something I already had access to is not the way to do it.

### 1/5 — 最悪のアップデート

*2026-08-13*

今までと全く別のゲームになってしまった
実際のおもちゃをQRコードで読み取る機能もなくなり
ゴミアプリ
みんなアンインストールしよう

### 1/5 — Sooooo bad since the new update going to delete after writing this 😡👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻😢

*2026-08-12, version 4.0.2*

This game is so bad change it or I will delete it. I am so disappointed 😞 because I used to love this game but now, since the update is rubbish, i’m going to delete it. Nobody is going to like this game anymore unless you change the update.



Thanks,
Jessica

### 1/5 — Terrible terrible terrible!

*2026-08-12*

Money trap with zero customer service. Pay for a subscription that you cannot even use! So beyond frustrated with this app developer/game

### 1/5 — 🤬

*2026-08-12, version 4.0.2*

I’m so mad at pinknninkkkkkkkk

### 1/5 — Extremely Disappointing

*2026-08-11*

We are honestly SO disappointed and angry with this change. This game used to be free and was my daughter’s absolute favorite game. Now, suddenly, so much of the content is locked behind a subscription that we have to pay for just so she can play the game she loved.

What makes this even worse is seeing how sad and confused my daughter is because she can no longer play her favorite game the way she used to. 💔 She doesn’t understand why everything she enjoyed is suddenly unavailable.

This change completely ruined the experience for our family. Very disappointing. 😡

### 1/5 — 😪🥱🤢🤮

*2026-08-11, version 4.0.2*

*2026-08-15, version 4.0.2*

I used to have this game but now I don’t and now there’s a new update that I missed ☹️

### 5/5 — Baby Benny Box is missing

*2026-08-10, version 4.0.2*

Not sure if this was accidental, but Benny Box (Baby Box’s baby brother) is missing in the craft room, even though Baby Box and Mama Box are present. Maybe you could add him in a future update?

### 5/5 — YES ITS GOOD GET ITTTT!
