One thing I don’t like is that once they get harder it almost impossible to complete a level without using a hint ### 5/5 — Pretty fun way to pass the time *2022-04-04, version 2.2.9* Pretty fun way to pass the time if you like to smash stars and smack people in The back of the head this my friends is absolutely the game for you 🧐—🔴 -⭐️—🕺—💯‼️🎉 Pretty Straightforward make the ball hit unsuspecting stranger and then hurry off to the next level before he can cuss you out for the assault 🤬🤬🤬 can’t beat a free assault charge now can ya ### 2/5 — Adds *2021-03-09, version 2.2.8* So if you don’t want to be annoyed with adds dont download this game. I downloaded this because the add made it look interesting soooo like the usual me I download this app. I completed the first level then comes the adds. Then every level I completed, there was always an add!!! Then when I got to level 65, I said in these EXACT WORDS “ Ok I’ve had enough of these like 2 minute adds!” “ These hard levels and stupid offers!” So I deleted it. It is a fun game overall just they need to fix the add thing I hope you understand me. Have a fantastic day or night 😁! ### 1/5 — Why? *2020-10-03, version 2.2.8* I actually have downloaded this app before. I saw the app again and thought: maybe it would be different! I was wrong. 1. ITS AS BORING AS HECK! All you do it wake up a tired guy with a red ball. ADD MORE FEATURES TO IT! Seriously, it looks fun, but it’s not. 2. Too many ads. Ads are like my nemesis. They make me angry, and to me they seem pointless. Some were even inappropriate and disturbing for kids. If you want to add ads in, FINE. But actually make them appropriate for kids! Well, if you can do that. 3. THE AD OF THIS GAME WAS THE WHOLE REASON I GOT THE GAME! OH MY GOD! This app looks fun? BELIEVE ME! IT AIN’T FUN. It shows a guy doing hobbies or something, and there is a water balloon! When I first got this, I wondered: hmm! That looks fun! I tried it, and it WAS fun at first..but eventually it was boring. WHO EVER LIKES THIS GAME? WOW. ### 5/5 — More levels *2020-01-03, version 2.2.8* I finished the game in two weeks and I have been waiting for more games for a year at so but still nothing. Or is a great game I liked it but it is very fun to play when waiting for something like at the hospital or something like that or when your alone it helps so PLAY THE GAME AND ASK FOR MORE LEVELS IT IS JUST 221 LEVELS. So please spam them for more games thank you. That was my review of the game. ### 3/5 — Ads Ruin the Experience *2019-11-10, version 2.2.8* I’m okay with a few obligatory ads when I’m not paying for the premium version, but when 5-second ads take 10 seconds to actually close (I continually tap the “x” button, which is super laggy and unresponsive) to the point where I have to exit the app each time due to frustration—and this happens about every two replays in a level—it frustrates me to the point of not even wanting to play. The graphics are also kinda shoddy and could use some sprucing up, but they aren’t terrible. Other than that, it’s a good game, and the mechanics are appropriate for how it makes itself look (gameplay wise). Frankly, I’d rather have banner ads at the bottom than being taken to a completely new page and having to wait for that one, however. ### 5/5 — hellostar *2019-10-27, version 2.2.8* i like the game so much but if you can make the game more fun by adding something like a sticker so the players can try to collect all of the sticker and play the game at the sametime and add a book to add the stiker that they collect and make the players design there own characters like change there color or make there characters a boy or a girl nd make up there own dance or make other players fight each other by singing Battle by there own Voice. THE END ### 5/5 — PERFECT GAME!!!! *2019-10-05, version 2.2.8* I really love this game! It is so intertaining and fun! I really love this game because after i play it, I feel like I have done something! I love waking people up,( I do not know why maybe because that is what I do to my mom and stepdad at 2:00 AM! Ha!) and I also love setting up the stage! I really love everything about this game! This is one of my favs! Love it! You should really keep more updates coming! Thanks so much for your idea to make this game! Thanks so much! Bye! Ps: I also love allllllllll of your other games! Like i keep saying,thanks soooooooooooooo much! ### 5/5 — How my family loves this game *2019-09-24, version 2.2.8* So my dad had got for one day then deleted it and five days ago he relies how her loved it so much so he got it again and I showed it to my mom I let her have a go and she got like ten goes and she downloaded it on her iPhone XS and she let my brother have a go and he got Atleast ten goes and downloaded it on his iPad mini and he let me have a go and I got at lest ten goes and I downloaded it so thanks to Hello Stars!!!!! Love,Gioia ### 3/5 — ??😂 *2019-07-28, version 2.2.8* This game was fun at first because the levels were not to hard to understand, but within time, it became very hard to understand levels and how to do them. I feel as if this is a game for people who have a high logic level. Also the concept is a Stickman who wants to be famous but I just don’t understand how making a ball hit the Stickman while he’s asleep on the toilet gets me money so he can get better stuff. And the amount of money you get per level is not enough to actually get higher level stuff. I mean, the clothes can be as high as $216.4 but you only get $24 per level depending on how many stars you get. This gets really annoying and boring. ## Frequently asked questions about Hello Stars ### What is Hello Stars?
