### 4/5 — love the game but..

*2024-06-24*

Don’t get me wrong but I love this game but I feel like the races for skins are too hard. It feels like they they are always faster than you by a tiny bit. But otherwise I LOVE IT

### 5/5 — Great time killer

*2023-02-13*

Amazing I play it on road trips with my family and it never gets boring

### 5/5 — Idk

*2022-06-04*

I love it I enjoy it it’s just a bit hard see than the first one like the level three train I’ve been on it for awhile and can’t get past but it’s still a great game

### 5/5 — Es muy bueno

*2022-05-28, version 1.83*

Me gusta mucho la temática y siempre puedes seguir avanzando.

### 4/5 — Great

*2022-01-28*

Just more arenas and less lags while playing and more skins if it’s possible

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-01-15*

I once told my cousin no game could be addicting if it had ads I downloaded this game which I found on Retro Highway and got seriously addicted it’s so addicting that you can easily ignore those pesky ads

### 3/5 — too much ads

*2021-11-14*

its fun, but there’s just too much ads

### 5/5 — Hard game!!

*2021-10-23*

Its pretty challenging once u get higher in the levels which makes the game pretty fun

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-05-16, version 1.83*

No words need to be said

### 4/5 — Bomb

*2020-08-21*

Nous savons pas où les bombe aterissent s’est fatiguant je meut toujours a cause de ça

### 5/5 — Add multiplayer

*2020-08-17*

I really loved the concepts of all the Hell Rider games. If I could just add one thing to make it like perfect it would be I guess adding multiplayer too! Like races *for atleast two players* and also u could add an endless loop option where u keep going and no matter how many times u die you revive. U could have better ideas in multiplayer though. Peace 🍻

### 3/5 — Bom

*2020-08-06*

O jogo é muito legal só que aí do nada ele se torna impossível as corridas são super difíceis e dão muita mas chance ao inimigo😡 é sério melhorem isso e as batalhas nem tenho o q dizer quase impossíveis o cara tem um bilhão de bombas e a gente só tem uma mas...tirando isso o jogo é muito legal 👍

### 5/5 — Good

*2020-03-15, version 1.83*

Very good for letting time pass by in a funeral

### 5/5 — Give it a go

*2020-02-23*

Worth a download

### 3/5 — Controls are horrible

*2020-01-19*

An otherwise great game ruined by cliche mobile touch controls. It’d be much easier to maneuver your character using two moving buttons and a drift button. Switching to different vehicles and concepts makes the game seem unique at first, but I have a feeling it might get stale after awhile.

### 5/5 — Hellrider 2

*2020-01-05, version 1.83*

This is an awesome game.

### 1/5 — Data collection

*2026-06-10*

Creepy, why do they collect ur location data. Suspicious, immediate pass on that, game doesn't look very interesting anyway

### 1/5 — Devs

*2022-09-21*

1 star cause the fact that I love when I just pass a checkpoint and then I die and then it ask me if I want to watch an ad and then I click no and then I have to watch an ad anyways…. Why?! 😡

### 1/5 — Gets too infuriating

*2022-09-17*

Starts off great then plummets in fun.

### 1/5 — Stop

### 1/5 — IMPOSIBLE

*2017-03-01, version 1.4*

This is a very fun game but it's IMPOSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!! I can't beat Andy duels or challenges pls fix I would love this game if u did

### 1/5 — Unbeatable

*2017-01-14, version 1.4*

He made this game on beatable so he could get money

### 1/5 — Ruim

*2016-11-02*

Eu achei o hellrider 1 melhor, simplesmente esse hellrider 2 me decepcionou; primeiro pq precisa de energia pra jogar; segundo, utilizaram mais de efeitos 3D por isso EU achei q a jogabilidade ficou estranha pelo fato de os obstáculos serem um pouco confusos

### 1/5 — Pay to Play

*2016-10-29*

This is just to bad because I really liked the first one because you could play as much as you want without having to wait but they recently introduced energy into the second game please take energy away but otherwise not a good game get the first one.

### 2/5 — O jogo é bom

*2020-05-03*

O jogo é bom, só que é difícil daí se torna chato

### 2/5 — just too difficult

*2018-06-03*

this has the potential to be amazing- it’s basic mechanics are clever, and the sweet spot in terms of character design being cute-but-cool is definitely a nice aspect.

however, it’s insanely difficult! rather than combat this with a 3 life system, which would be enough to survive long enough to do really anything, there is a “watch an ad to continue” pop up. upon clicking the ‘x’ to close this, it then plays an ad anyway- entirely pointless to have the internet on whilst playing if you don’t plan to watch adverts to revive you: this game for me is solely played offline for this reason.

secondly, with the hard aspect- often in areas (such as horizontal ones) where there are battles, large obstacles or events, there isn’t enough room for you to properly move back and forth in the zig-zag motion, which is so speedy that my mind cannot process to press a button quickly enough to save the skull dude from dying.

if you could turn around quicker (i often find myself being incapable of doing anything as i’m faced the wrong direction!!) it’d fix this.

overall, unless you’re a professional in terms of picking up difficult game mechanics very quickly- this isn’t the game for you.
