### 4/5 — Level 5

*2026-01-20*

This game is cute, but I just started on it and on level 5 where the food monster comes to attack, after I beat him once (where as I’m supposed to take him out twice) he never comes back for the second round. Instead he just disappears and I always loose this level because it won’t let me fight him again. There must be a glitch in the game because I deleted and uploaded the game again, but it didn’t help. Please help 🩷

### 1/5 — Level 3

*2025-12-06*

I keep on getting stuck on it

### 1/5 — Level 5

*2025-03-15*

Level 5 still hasn’t been fixed

### 4/5 — Level problem

*2024-08-31*

On level 5 I’m supposed to defeat 2 lasagna aliens but after I defeat the first alien lasagna the second one doesn’t show up please fix it

### 1/5 — Glitch on level 5

*2024-08-23*

That glitch on level 5 in the game makes so the game is cheating so unless it gets fixed you exactly have much of a good game to have and if you don’t want the game to look bad I suggest you fix it asap. Make it happen!

### 4/5 — Gargegargegarfiieeld!

*2024-06-09*

im in prison

### 3/5 — Level 5 Glitch

*2023-11-17*

There is a glitch on level 5 where the second alien lasagna doesn’t spawn.

### 2/5 — Lasangan Level

*2023-06-05, version 2.8.3*

I think it was level 3 when the aliens come and you’re supposed to defeat two of them. HOW?! The second one doesn’t come out so I keep losing the level even though I collect everything else!

### 1/5 — Level 5

*2023-05-09*

The level ask you to destroy 2 aliens but it’s only one that shows up in the level please fix I was enjoying the game but what’s the point if you can’t go pass level 5

### 1/5 — Can’t get past level 5

*2023-03-05*

There is a glitch in this game that will not let you beat the second alien on level 5 because it will not give you the second alien to beat it seems to have been a glitch they’ve had for a while not. It’s a shame I love match games and I love Garfield I was so excited to have the two combined
