Ce qui est étrange c’est qu’il a fallu desintaller le jeux puis le réinstaller pour qu’il fonctionne. Puis à nouveau le bug recommence et là impossible de jouer... Dommage.... ### 3/5 — More *2019-12-11* Even though I have all the pieces, even more parts of the puzzle are now missing. You didn’t fix the issues and you want $13.99 for the next one? This is terrible... you need a hot fix ASAP pls ### 3/5 — Игра остановилась *2019-11-26* После оплаты прошла несколько стадий и игра остановилась на какой-то рекламе ваших игр!И как быть?! ### 2/5 — Advertising *2019-07-28, version 1.0.1* I paid for the game because they’re great fun, but there’s now a pop up advertisement of more games that I can’t get rid of. So I paid for a game that I can’t play further. Cmon Jetdogs I’ve never had any issues with your other games. ### 3/5 — Beug *2019-07-21* Est ce normale que je n arrive pas à lancer le joue avec mon iPhone SE ### 2/5 — Что делать, игру выбивает. *2019-07-15* Что делать? Игру выбивает. Невозможно войти. **Developer response:** Добрый день! Спасибо Вам за отзыв. Напишите, пожалуйста, нам на почту - contact@jetdogs.com и мы обязательно постараемся Вам помочь! ### 2/5 — Troubles *2019-07-14* So I own all the Hercules games and I love them! But this one is giving me problems. Now at first it wouldn’t let me get past level six without just quitting, the whole game, and not letting me get back into it. So I uninstalled it reinstalled 2 times now it does on the first level of the 2nd episode. Really, if this is how the game is now I want my money back since I can not even play it. So I can not give it an honest review at this time since I haven’t played more then the first episode, which is sad. Because I really like your games more then any others out there. ### 4/5 — Good number 8 *2019-07-08, version 1.0.1* Good game for passing the time. Number eight in a series. Playing on an iPad mini 4 and some parts of the game are almost off the screen and not easy to access. Also some banner announcements in the game become transparent and hard to read if you tap elsewhere when they show up unexpectedly. ### 5/5 — More fun in the series *2019-07-01* This is one of those games that I play again and again. I was very happy to see that there was a new one in the series. There are some new aspects to it, so it’s not simply the previous games re-done. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t bother.... *2019-12-29, version 1.0.1* Once they get your $$$$ on this one, the latest games skyrocket!!! $21.99 for version XI????? Unbelievable. Read the reviews on that one Jetdogs....you’ve lost a heck of a lot of loyal customers in your grab for cash. No-one is buying at that price. Developers, take note - how to ruin a brilliant series and your brand in one fell swoop. ### 1/5 — No Update to fix crashes? *2019-12-08* I’m having the same issue as others. Game won’t open! I have all the Hercules games and VII, VIII and IX all doing the same. Just won’t open. Are you guys going to address this for your paying customers. And yes, I sent an email about this too. ### 1/5 — Game won’t open *2019-11-15* Opens up first screen to jet dogs logo and then closes. Repeats. Tried closing all other apps and also restarting iPhone. Same. ### 1/5 — Game won’t start *2019-11-14* Not working with latest iOS and iPad Pro. Won’t open at all ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2019-10-02, version 1.0.1* Everything worked perfectly while I was playing the trial and as soon as I paid for the remainder of the game, it stopped working. ### 1/5 — Game crashed *2019-09-26, version 1.0.1* I can’t play the game, it crashes right at the jetdog screen. That’s too bad. ### 1/5 — Невозможно играть *2019-09-15* Постоянно выкидывает из игры! Перезагрузка устройства не помогает. Как получить платеж обратно? **Developer response:** Здравствуйте! Такого быть не должно! Напишите, пожалуйста, нам на почту contact@jetdogs.com и мы постараемся вам помочь! ### 1/5 — Boring graphics...Boring gameplay...Low quality🙅🏼‍♀️ *2019-09-15* Maybe I’ve played too many of these games...because this one is undeniably BORING. This particular game would definitely apply to my 6 year old grandson. That being said...he might find it un-remarquable also🙇🏼‍♂️. So I refuse to believe in the RATING you put up. Where are the comments anyway??? This as the looks of a 90’s game.... Not compelling at all 😒 ### 1/5 — App won’t work *2019-08-11, version 1.0.1* The game is good and worked fine all through the trial levels. Paid for the full game and now each time I open the app it force closes. Not happy I’ve spent on this. ### 1/5 — Not happy *2019-07-31* I got this game tried it, loved it, and then y’all do an update and it won’t even go to the home screen starts to open then shuts off.... **Developer response:** Hi there Maddyj2154!
