### 2/5 — Fix please

*2026-05-17, version 1.4.2*

The game is fun but sometimes the game will kick me out if I hit play and it does ten or eleven times before actually letting me play

### 4/5 — Glitching

*2026-04-12, version 1.4.2*

So i have been playing this game on a website before i got the app and i was amazing i loved it so i got the app and when i tried to play it and pressed the play button iit took me to my home screen and this has been happening i havent been able to play the game

### 4/5 — Before u download

*2026-04-11, version 1.4.2*

I love gulper io and I finally got the actual app! Only problem is that, when I click the start button or the x on an add, it sometimes kicks me out. This is happening almost every time and I don’t know if it is just me or if this happens to everyone. If the makers of gulper are reading this, pls fix this problem. Thank u!

### 3/5 — Crashes after update

*2026-03-29, version 1.4.2*

My favorite .io game and it won’t stop crashing.

### 2/5 — Won’t stop crashing

*2026-01-29, version 1.4.2*

I love this game. Why won’t it stop crashing? 😭😭

### 4/5 — Hızlanamıyorum

*2026-01-12, version 1.4.2*

Oyunu pc de oynadığımda mahsun sol tıkına basılı tuttuğunda hızlanabiliyor ancak uygulama üzerinde oynadımda hızlanamıyorum bunu nasıl yapacağım

### 3/5 — What happened here?

*2025-12-07, version 1.4.2*

Sometimes when I’m playing in the middle of a match, my screen will freeze every 5 seconds and then I eventually die to another player and it was getting super annoying. I was wondering if it was a bug in the game or my Wi-Fi? If it’s a bug, please fix this issue.

Edit: It was a Wi-Fi issue and I fixed it thankfully. But another problem is that when I move my mouse across the screen the snake is delayed before turning…

### 3/5 — Please fix this bug

*2025-10-21, version 1.4.2*

The game is fun in itself, but what is really annoying is the hit boxes of the player is too poorly made and sometimes it’s really irritating because you die in collisions that didn’t happen and most of the time both of the snakes die.

### 2/5 — Ad and joystick problem

*2025-08-11, version 1.4.2*

This game has too many ads. Also, the joystick kind of goes glitchy and I die. It also has ads to block it. You have to pay. But the rest is good.

### 3/5 — THE HITBOXXXXXX

*2025-07-21, version 1.4.2*

Overall, I say this game is very fun and challenging, but there are two mistakes that’s killing it. One of them is THE HITBOX. Every time I “kill” a snake, the snake also apparently kills me. And the worst part is that it doesn’t even make SENSE. When I know I killed it, the game lags and kills me to in a face-to-face position. Another issue is the amount of ads in each game, I get an ad before and after I play, it’s super annoying. Pls fix these issues.

### 3/5 — Super fun but…..

*2025-04-26, version 1.4.2*

It is a good game but there is no music(at least for me)and I don’t like just being the yellow color and it doesn’t let me change my skin

### 5/5 — It is a very fun game

*2025-03-29, version 1.4.2*

The feeling of being first place is so exciting and it makes me come back for more playing

### 1/5 — Kicks me out

*2026-05-22, version 1.4.2*

I’m not able to get into any games because it will automatically just kick me from the app when I try to click start.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2026-05-13, version 1.4.2*

I like the desktop version. However, the app crashes once it hits the “connecting…” screen.

### 1/5 — App kept kicking me out and didn’t work

*2026-04-13, version 1.4.2*

It sucks that I can’t even play in the first place. Every time I would click play, the app would kick me out so I couldn’t play in the first place. Fix that please.

### 1/5 — crashes

### 5/5 — I like it

*2026-08-01, version 1.4.2*

This game is Cannibalism

### 5/5 — Fun game, 1 flaw

*2026-07-28, version 1.4.2*

This game is awesome, I love playing it in my free time! It’s just that there is this one glitch that like the game freezes and the next thing I know I died.. it’s very disappointing, because this always seems to happen when I’m on the leader bored. Last thing I would want to be fixed, is that every time I go on the game my name disappears, and it’s not that bad it’s just a little bit annoying, so if that could be adjusted I would be great full. Other than that 5 stars!❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — Such an underrated .io snake game

### 5/5 — Very nice

*2025-04-23, version 1.4.2*

So just by joining I could tell SIMPLE MECHANICS and when I joined (so much easier than slither) but the name could use some work on. I feel as if it does not show the full capability of this game! But overall just magnificent!

### 5/5 — Good but also not good.

*2025-04-17, version 1.4.2*

This game is amazing. It’s the easiest on pc/computer with good internet but also bad on iPad with lag. I used to play this game all the time as a kid and it so fun.
