### 3/5 — Fun but simple

*2022-03-25*

This is a fun game, but very simple without many bonuses or challenges.

### 4/5 — Keeps crashing

*2021-07-07*

I love these games but it keeps crashing at level 3.10! Every time I go underground it crashes and I have to start over. Can you fix this please?!

### 3/5 — Glitch

*2020-09-09*

Level 3.10 underground has no players!  I can’t finish the rest of the game!

### 4/5 — Constant crashes, good game.

*2020-09-07*

They should tell customers that the app really doesn’t work unless you are on WiFi. Very frustrating.

### 4/5 — Keeps crashing on certain levels

*2020-07-07*

I love all the Hercules games!  That said, this particular one has some programming glitches and certain levels where you go underground crash routinely, making it impossible to get a good score.  If these glitches were fixed, it would be 5 star!

### 4/5 — I enjoy all the Hercules games

*2020-02-19*

This one has a couple twists... Pills. Not sure I like them very much, but hey, it’s different. And a new type of “guide” that is just so-so in its helpfulness.

Even with the new, interactive guide on, it’s also too impossible to win many of the “big stars” for beating dev score on expert. 

Then, to add insult to injury, when I finally beat the dev score, the next time I log in, it’s reverted back to the original accomplishment (3 stars). I only mention it here, because I got no response from support for this issue. 

If you like these sorts of games, you’ll still love this. The game play, graphics and controls are spot on,

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you for taking your time to play the game and give us a review!
We always keep an eye on what the players say and use the feedback to improve our games in the future. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and we hope you have fun!

### 4/5 — Great game, but hangs up on your game ad.

*2020-02-10*

When the game decides to show downloads for other jet dog games, it hangs my game up.

I love the Hercules games, and this one is no exception. Just your game listing.... the first time it came up, the game hung up. I can’t get off that page and back to the game. I went back about a half hour later and could play again. 

Now I got the ad page again and the game hung up again. I can’t get that page to go away so I can play. And I’ve waited several hours to try again. It’s still hung up.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you for playing the game and giving us a review!
We are very sorry you are experiencing issues with the game. Could you drop us a line at contact@jetdogs.com? We will do our best to resolve the issue.

### 2/5 — Way overpriced

*2020-02-07*

$14?? You realize you can get an actual console game for that much. I bought a two year old title for Playstation a month ago that was the same price. It had 100 hours of game play, full voice acting, 3D graphics, and downloadable extra content. Why on Earth would anybody pay $14 for a game that’s basically the equivalent of a title from 1992? I am all for paying for apps, and supporting developers. I have bought ALL the other Hercules games, but the price point on this one is not worth the money.

### 4/5 — So much harder

*2020-02-06, version 1.0*

Love Me some Hercules but this one is infinitely harder than the others. Just makes the fun last longer I guess

### 2/5 — $14??

*2020-01-22*

The $14 price tag for this game is insane. It’s actually insulting considering how many of their other games I have purchased. I’ve never been offered any kind of loyalty discount. Insane.

### 3/5 — Nice

*2020-01-21, version 1.0*

Nice game.

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2020-01-13*

All of the Hercules series is enjoyable. Hercules IX is as excellent as a time-management game gets. Well done.
Yes, it has some glitches that are frustrating, but they definitely do not outweigh this game’s overall achievement for design; super fun in the challenging strategy of achievement. 
Players will never tire of this terrific first-rate game choice.
Bring on Hercules X!  We await the next challenge.

### 5/5 — Hercules IX

*2020-01-12*

Top vivement le prochain opus !!!

### 3/5 — Kick’s out

*2019-12-04*

After mastering the underground on level 4.1 the game kicks u out.  It a shame I really enjoy playing this series.

### 1/5 — Thing level

*2025-06-17*

Cannot finish bug

### 1/5 — Far too expensive

*2020-05-10, version 1.0.1*

No way am I paying £13.99 for a game like this. Not even the “discounted” price of £6.99.

### 1/5 — Terrible pricing

*2020-01-27, version 1.0*

Played all of these types o games and happy with an $8 price. Missed the window and they want $22. Nope. Very disappointing

### 1/5 — £13.99 for the full game!

*2020-01-23, version 1.0*

Just played the free trial and as always it’s very enjoyable. Then it told me if I wanted to get further I needed to pay £13.99!!! What a rip off. No chance

### 1/5 — How much?

*2020-01-20, version 1.0*

I love this series and have all of them, except this one. $21.99 is outrageous! Sorry but this will be the first I don’t buy and complete.

### 1/5 — Not working anymore

*2019-12-07, version 1.0*

Sadly I can’t get this app to work anymore. It won’t open but keeps crashing. Shame as I was enjoying it lots, despite the much higher price compared to previous editions.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing

*2019-11-14*

Game will not start with latest iOS

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2019-11-03*

I’ve played all the Hercules games and this one is glitchy. Beat level 7 and it kicked me off the game. Had to start the level over again. Please fix!

### 1/5 — $$

*2019-11-03, version 1.0*

Umm the price is ridiculous!!! Usually buy these, but not at that price. I’ll stick to my reasonably priced Gamehouse games...

### 1/5 — Overcharge ...

*2019-10-30, version 1.0*

I bought this game with their promotion, buy now for only $10.99 from full price $21.99 … but turn up that they charged me with full price anyway ..... what a rip off .....

### 5/5 — Above and beyond

*2021-10-31, version 1.0.1*

To infinity and beyond, aims for the moon and catches the stars!!
🌙✨💫

### 5/5 — Some difficult levels

*2021-10-25*

This is by far the most difficult of the series so far. Worth the money.

### 5/5 — やっぱりヘラクレスシリーズが面白い！

*2021-06-22*

メガラは絵がごちゃごちゃしてて　やる気もでない。ヘラクレスシリーズはもう出ないのかなぁ　(◞‸◟)

### 5/5 — Stop throwing me off

*2020-08-07*

I bought all 10 versions of these games and I have been playing then over and over again on different levels since the pandemic started. I’ve enjoyed all 10 versions until a few days ago when they started throwing me off in the middle of a level. I have to go back on and play the same level again only to be thrown off again. I truly hope this problem doesn’t continue because I love 
every one of the versions.

### 5/5 — Love it!!!

*2020-04-07, version 1.0.1*

I’ve been playing these kinds of games (Time management) for a lot of years and this particular one is awesome! It keeps me focussed, the music and graphics are great - wish it was a it more challenging though! but I love it

### 5/5 — このシリーズ大好き！

*2020-03-09*

日本でもこのスタイルのゲーム増えてほしい…
日本製では見たことがない。

なんて言うジャンルって言うべきか…

### 5/5 — Perfect game

*2020-02-27*
