### 4/5 — Needs some fixing

*2024-08-10*

This game is so good I love it but there is two things that get me mad first is I cannot swim and second I cannot get to the other land that is on the map but overall this game is very good!

**Developer response:** Hi Karen0.19, and thanks for your kind words and review. We are constantly working on improving the game based on the feedback from our players. Could you contact us via the in-game support or at https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus We would like to look into the issue and do our best to help you out. We’ll be waiting for your message!

### 3/5 — Resolution Issues

*2024-07-27*

I’m playing this on my iPhone 2nd Generation, and my device is said to be compatible with the game or else I wouldn’t be playing it. However, the resolution on default was too bad but when I put the resolution really low, errors & glitches still occurred. I don’t know…is this my device or actual errors from the game?

**Developer response:** Hi Sri Sai a., we appreciate your feedback and are glad you enjoy the game. We understand the resolution issues can be a concern. For best performance, please ensure your device meets the iOS/iPadOS 16 or later requirements. If issues persist, reach out to support via https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus Thanks!

### 3/5 — Compatible Devices

*2024-07-23*

I love how this is  and that I do not have to waste  a lot of money for the GTA 3 Definitive Edition and that I can just use my netflix account just for this game! However, the 2 stars weren’t earned because the iPad 7th generation & the M1 Max Macbook should be able to withstand this game. Since I have somewhat old devices, I wanted to test how the game would be if the resolution was at it’s highest point. However, I am unable to do so. Please fix this, Netflix. On my older devices I can always make the resolution low. Thank you.

### 2/5 — Autosave Feature is trash

*2024-05-15*

The original port of the game would start up right where progress was left off even if the app was closed. I love this game and have enjoyed grinding it out time and time again. The Definitive Edition definitely left a bad taste in my mouth when it was released on the console. Not sure why I gave it another chance on the mobile version. Hard to enjoy when your in-game progress is lost when you decide to jump back into the game after a brief FaceTime call.

**Developer response:** Hey there! Sorry to hear that you did not enjoy the game. We are constantly working on improving the game based on the feedback from our players, so thank you for sharing your feedback on what we could improve.

### 4/5 — Relatively Immaculate

*2024-04-24*

I was a bit skeptical at first (I am sure along with many others) when I heard the GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition was getting a mobile port onto Netflix. I mean, the original basis of this “Definitive Edition” was built off of poorly optimized mobile ports. However, when I played this, I was pleasantly surprised how much better it is from the PC/console versions! It actually feels like a “Definitive Edition“ now. From numerous bug fixes to the addition of “classic lighting,” it is a HUGE improvement! Honestly, the only things that would make this trilogy truly amazing is remaining bug fixes, bringing back the cut music from the original games, and fixing the rest of the poor character models and textures! But other than that, great job Netflix (aka Video Game Deluxe)! And keep at it! Continue to pick up where Rockstar and Gtove Street Games left off to make this Definitive Edition THE Definitive Edition!

**Developer response:** Hi, and thanks for the awesome review! Really glad you're having a blast with our version of the game and we appreciate the insight on where we could improve. We're closely working with the team and we'll make sure the game grows with your feedback in mind. Big thanks for the support!

### 3/5 — Needs motion steering

*2024-04-01*

The pure nostalgia. Love that some of the bugs are still present. The only thing is that it requires the screen to steer and I don’t get why I can’t just tilt my phone to steer. The onscreen options are all horrible. Please develop motion steering.

**Developer response:** Hi, and thanks for the generous rating! We're thrilled the nostalgic gameplay is bringing you tons of fun. We appreciate the suggestion regarding the controls and will continue to discuss internally for improvements. Hope you continue to enjoy the game!

### 2/5 — Unable to get out of pause screen

*2024-03-27*

The useless Netflix character symbol in the top right of the screen when playing needs to be completely removed that way you can exit the menu screen

**Developer response:** Hi Colossus4716, thanks for the review! We're closely monitoring insights so we appreciate your insights regarding the display. We'll take this forward, and if there are other changes that you would like to see in the game, we would love to hear more of your thoughts!

*2024-03-25*

### 3/5 — Claude

*2024-03-01*

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve loved this game since I was like 13 years old but what is annoying that Claude has a very short stamina time whenever he sprinted. I played the og gta 3 and his stamina beats remastered Claude by 25 seconds as for remastered Claude he only runs for like 7 seconds and he’s already winded. Please get this fixed!

**Developer response:** Hey mintyfuzzbutt, appreciate the generous review! Our team is actively working to enhance the game's performance. We'll take this forward, and if there are other adjustments that you'd like to see, we would love to hear more of your thoughts!

*2024-02-16*

Epic

### 3/5 — Driving

*2024-02-09*

The buttons for digital driving i feel need to be bigger cause i’ll be hitting the button and nothing will happen, the buttons are just to small for peoples finger so can you make them bigger it would be helpful.

We appreciate you sharing your insight regarding the controls and will continue to work on improving the game with your feedback in mind. We'll take this forward, and if you would like to share the adjustments you want to see in future updates, we're more than happy to hear them!

*2024-02-08*

Great hopefully you guys more bring more graphics stabilization updates, fps labels, fps improvements/stablization, and fps bar for streaming and on low devices im on iPhone SE 2nd gen hopefully you guys set up a direct app for streaming with the highest quality something with the option to hide mobile controls for streaming, hopefully we can we can get an online port for GTA online mobile, I would like to to customize a character for online, race, do missions etc or it can just be free mode with a character creation with a little mission or just regular

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-09-27*

So I’ve literally just started game, & at mission to pick up Misty & take her to Joey but when you get to her apartment & drive into the blue circle nothing happens!! In normal version you beeped your horn to get Misty to come out but there doesn’t even seem to be a horn button!! So I’ve given up & gone back to original GTA 3

**Developer response:** Hello there, and thanks for the review! Our support team would be happy to hear any concerns you might have about the game, can you contact them at https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus ? They’ll be waiting for your message!

### 1/5 — LAST MISSION LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE AND BUGGY

*2024-09-18*

I grinded hours and hours into this game and on the last mission when Catalina got on the helicopter, the guards next to Maria started shooting her for no reason and that never happened in the original game. Please roll out an update fixing this issue

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work without WiFi

*2024-08-28*

I downloaded this game as im a massive fan of GTA 3 already have the 10th anniversary version on this phone but is just ridicules every time I go to start the game up im greeted with a download every time but when I want to play this game out and about I can’t use it unless I have data to download the same files.

**Developer response:** Hi eoodshanerow, really sorry to hear about your experience. Please reach out to our support team and we'd be happy to help. You can send us a message at https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus. Hoping to hear from you soon!

### 1/5 — Worst of the gta

*2024-07-13*

Not only does every car drive in to you if you take the corner to hard your car flips you have 3 bumps your car on fire on some of the missions it just expects you to guess what
You got to do in my
Opinion if you want the gta experience then go with gta San Andreas a lot better game and more realistic

**Developer response:** Hi, and thanks for leaving us a review! Really sorry to hear that the game failed to meet your expectations. Nonetheless, we appreciate the honest feedback and we'll continue to discuss opportunities with the team in charge. If there are changes that we can consider, feel free to leave us a note at https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus. We'll be happy to hear from you!

### 1/5 — Specify that you need a Netflix paid sub to play

*2024-04-02*

Please y’all should specify that you need an actively subscribed/paid Netflix membership account to play this games and do not lead people in to installing this game and BAM $15 subscription fee by force… what a waste of my data while I already had Vice City and GTA3 from Rockstar itself some years ago I should have just downloaded it back… Arrrghhh 😡😡😡

### 1/5 — Complete Trash

*2024-03-21*

The beginning loading screen lagged multiple times and this is the same for any scene in this game. The picture quality is absolutely way worse than the PS2 version. Also, the driving mechanics are terrible and very unresponsive.  I’ll definitely be deleting this piece of trash

**Developer response:** Hi, and thank you for leaving us a review! Very sorry to hear about the inconsistent gameplay. Could you let our support team know so we can take a look and help you move forward? They'll be waiting for your message at https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus!

### 1/5 — Unplayable.

*2024-01-04*

Thank you for awakening the memory inside me that this game existed. I’m sure it found a special place in many people’s  hearts but I hope someone who cooked up this painfully executed version finds a special place in hell.

**Developer response:** Hi, and thanks for the review! We appreciate the honest insights and will continue to work on improving the game with your feedback in mind. If you would like to share more about the adjustments that you would like to see in future updates, we're more than happy to hear them!

**Developer response:** Hi there and thank you for your review! Could you please double check that your device is not silenced and if the issue still persists, would you send our player support a message through the game settings? That way they can check the situation with you.

### 1/5 — No Audio on iPad

### 5/5 — Great!

*2024-04-19*

I have been really enjoying the game and really didn’t find any bugs except one problem. I have recently transferred data from my iPhone 13 to the 15 and after loading the game and signing into Netflix, shortly after I click resume it crashes within 1-3 seconds. Hopefully this is just a temporary problem and I can get some help to fix this problem, overall it’s great.

Our support team would be happy to help with any questions or feedback, can you contact them via the in-game Settings or https://help.netflix.com/en/contactus. Hope you continue having fun playing!

### 5/5 — Infinite stars

*2024-04-01*

IF I COULD I WOULD RATE THIS INFINITE STARS

So when i opened the app it was super easy to use just like normal GTA, and super nostalgic so it was good to get back on OG GTA lll. So i would definitely recommend this game if you want nostalgia or just to have fun 
Hope this review helps. Have a good day.

**Developer response:** Hey there! Thanks a lot for the review, and hope you keep enjoying the game!
