Between the disappearing traffic, awful touch controls, busted boat inputs, missing crouch, prehistoric draw distance, wanted-level weirdness, and now apparently loading a save can resurrect a police chase, I actually want your money back. This is the worst game I’ve ever played on iOS and it really ruined the nostalgia factor for me ### 5/5 — The best GTA *2026-07-26, version 1.8* Still holds up.

Not everything. Plzzzz ### 1/5 — Buggy mess *2026-05-02, version 1.8* After investing almost 10 hours into the game all I get when I load my save is a black screen and parts of the hud. I was roaming when it suddenly came up with a white loading screen so I restarted the app and now my save is completely destroyed out of nowhere. Don’t waste your money. ### 1/5 — Fix it *2026-04-15, version 1.8* Doesn’t hold data, keeps crashing and it deleted my entire game.

Earth🙈😴😎 Today ### 5/5 — Welcome to Vice City! *2026-08-04, version 1.8* Beautiful game, I would much rather play this than the definitive edition. I love how the game takes place in the 80’s. The classic cars, music, clothing and overall vibe of the game hits hard. Plus that pink and blue neon theme is gorgeous-overall it is an amazing game, especially for its time. Don’t let the graphics discourage you from playing it. Honestly I think it has a certain charm to it. Tommy is a funny character too. ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-08-03, version 1.8* Much recommend ### 5/5 — One of the Best Games On Earth *2026-08-02, version 1.8* 80s Game.
