Always up for thinking outside the box! **Developer response:** Thank you for your support!! ### 5/5 — No ads and fun game *2023-05-21* I’ve downloaded the whole set of games and love them. Would recommend as a great child-proof and no network game. Play it on the flight, the bus to school, or even at work. It’s addicted and the best NO ADS PLEASE GET THIS FREE AMAZING APP. One small problem, in the middle there is a gap and I hate when the ball goes through that, I would want that gap to be fully closed. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and playing! ### 5/5 — My fav game *2023-05-05* Everything is good except the Ads and to remove that I guess there should an option to remove it from the earned rewards.

Thank you Sunny **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and playing our game! ### 4/5 — Funktioniert *2023-05-03* Ihr habt den Pause-Bug behoben!

Not only that the way the add is placed at the bottom feels very intentional like hey! how about you stop doing that! put it at the top? literally anywhere but where u need to tap your fingers it actually frustrating to me and also it’s funny that whenever i get the big paddle into matter what it wants to not hit the paddles till the power up is over and goes directly into the hole!! soooo funnnn!!! not only that the other maps are mind numbly bad you have objects in your way so the ball falls directly into the part you can’t hit at all because of course you did it on purpose…. thank you, **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and comments on the physics. We will get those improved. ### 1/5 — Not working *2023-05-09, version 2.0.3* I paid for the ultimate plan to unlock everything and there are still ads and I can’t restore my purchases ### 1/5 — Unfair and not fun *2023-01-06* This game is not about skill! There’s a 50-50 chance that the ball falls between the two kickers. And you can do nothing about it. That’s not a game if you can‘t influence that you loose. And was to much ads. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! ### 2/5 — お金を払いたくはならない *2023-08-12* 普通以下のゲーム **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and playing our game! ### 2/5 — Первая часть намного интереснее *2022-12-08* Там Всё зависит от тебя, а здесь шарик просто может попасть в дырочку посередине, и ты ничего не сможешь с этим сделать **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! ### 3/5 — Нику *2024-07-30* Отлично но есть недостаток **Developer response:** Hello, could you provide some more details where the issue happens? ### 3/5 — Great game but no reward *2024-05-22* I love this game and the regular HTI, but I noticed that, with the increasing level difficulty, it becomes harder to gain points. There is almost no reason to play the harder levels if you’re trying to get stars. Maybe you could make the hardest levels give more points for hitting the island? Otherwise a creative and fun game. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and playing our games! Noted and added to our list of improvements. ### 3/5 — Left flipper *2023-09-21* I do like this simple game. But the left flipper is nonsense. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Frustrating. Make your flippers tap area larger or something. Only then could I love this fun simple game. **Developer response:** Thank you for reporting. Team will be investigating this and will work on a fix. ### 3/5 — Пока странно *2023-06-22* Купил уровень за 1000 звездочек, на котором нереально набрать какие либо очки, тупо сливает все попытки. Если и играть, то только на первом уровне, но и там багов полно, когда шарик пролетает насквозь. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. ### 3/5 — Excellent foundation *2022-12-27* I really love the concept of this game but I find the design falls a little short. Most notably, there’s nothing incentivizing the player to actually play the later tables. Stars are harder to get on all tables after the first, so they only exist for high score; but since high scores don’t come with star rewards, the first table is always the best for gaining stars. Perhaps a way to fix this would be to increase the cost of new tables slightly but then award two stars per island hit on the 2nd table, three stars per hit on the 3rd, etc., to better give the player something to work for and improve at. The other changes I’d like to see are mainly accessibility related; I wish there was a way to trap the ball so I can aim a shot better without the ball hitting the bumper behind the flipper, and it would be a bit more fair if the Bricks powerup couldn’t spawn bricks on the lower half of the table and if the flipper actually had a falling animation rather than immediately dropping down to prevent some weird physics interactions. All in all though this game has a very fun and satisfying idea that I hope is improved upon in future updates. P.S. The review button in this game links to the app store page for the original Hit The Island, rather than the page for HTI Pinball. **Developer response:** Hello and thank you for reaching out and your feedback! Team will be researching this further and work on improving. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Incredible *2025-06-11* Wow **Developer response:** Thank you for playing! ### 5/5 — Dhfl *2025-04-20* Nice and the best game to play when you’re bored **Developer response:** Thank you for playing! ### 5/5 — Unexpected *2024-09-29* As this game a low size even my calculator can play it. Thanks. **Developer response:** OK! ### 5/5 — One of the best mobile games out there *2024-07-13, version 2.0.3* There’s no adds or micro transaction nonsense to deal with; you can just turn on the game and start playing.the addition of a dark mode is great too. ### 5/5 — This is great! I like it *2024-07-11, version 2.0.3* I love the pinball ### 5/5 — Simple. Complex. Fun. *2024-04-25* I really enjoy this game and it’s ingenious way of using the dynamic island, but — even after over a year — still waiting for it to come to iPad. Also, it would be great if a ‘pause’ button was implemented during gameplay, and a “shake” function ( shake the device or “tilt“ button) as, sometimes, the ball can get stuck in the flippers or in obstacles on some of the levels. ============================ Thanks for the update. I also noticed a bug, which I found by accident: when you pause the game, un-pause, then pause again, the game continues playing (during the pause screen) causing you to lose a turn. This happens on both, iPhone and iPad. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and playing! When you tap on the score, it will allow you to pause the game. ### 5/5 — Fave stars!!! *2024-04-21, version 2.0.3* Fave stars!!! I love never playing it and Ryan trayhan you should review this. ### 5/5 — Simple. Complex.
