I’ve wasted 1200 coins trying to resolve the issue myself because the chat support still has yet to get back to me. The game won’t let me click on the pink people towards the end so I can’t complete the level no matter what I try to do. Also, they re-use the same levels as time passes. I’ve done the same one at least 4x now and I’m around level 1100+. ### 3/5 — Can become addicted! *2026-08-10, version 31.0.1* Love this game. As an adult this is one of the longest games I’ve stuck to playing. I’m currently on level 347. If the developer can see this definitely need you to offer more coins and lower the price to purchase some of the help. Maybe lower them all by 350 because 900 being the lowest cost is outrageous. I’ve definitely put in about $49 on this game lol please lower the coin prices and make more ways to get new coins… maybe 50 daily or something!!! ### 1/5 — Constant Pop Ups *2026-08-02, version 31.0.1* Fun game, but there are constant pop-ups of mini games within the app- not even ads. You cannot skip the instructions and beginning level of the mini games. Too annoying for the actual game to be worth it. ### 4/5 — iPhone Dynamic Island makes game not fully compatible with iPhone *2026-07-03, version 30.2.3* iPhones Dynamic Island at the top of the screen covers upcoming holes and makes it difficult to play strategically. Dynamic Island can’t be disabled so the “solution” is to rotate the screen, but hole people doesn’t rotate to landscape. I love the game, but I’m at a disadvantage not being able to see some of the upcoming holes. ### 3/5 — Game itself is fun *2026-07-02, version 30.2.3* The game itself is fun to play, but the developers mix the levels every time they update the game. This causes the same levels to appear. Example: I finish level 250 but after a few updates I’ll see that same board at level 800 and 1280. I’ve plaid the same board at three different levels. I’m being there’s other games similar enough to this one. ### 2/5 — Doesn't work *2026-06-27, version 30.2.3* The mini games don't work. You will never, ever ever ever beat the side games unless you spend money. Even then I don't think it'll work. I tried to talk to talk to gamer support through the games settings and they didn't help me at all and then when I tried to send more proof and all of a sudden my attachments were over 25gb when they were 20-28 s videos. ### 3/5 — Update *2026-06-26, version 30.2.3* I would give 5 stars because I love this game, however, with this update the portal pass isn’t working. I had four days left in the last one with the max coins saved up, which was 5,000. I open the app this morning and it says there’s a new portal pass. Where are all my coins that were saved up?? Then I bought the new portal pass, and it won’t let me claim the first tier?!?! Please fix this!! If I’m spending my money on this app, I want the rewards that come with spending money in the app!! ### 5/5 — Уровень 897 ошибка *2026-06-19* На 897 уровня глюк. Желтая воронка с замком, ключ от нее на розово-оранжевой, но когда я задействую оранжевую, ключ на желтой не срабатывает, она все еще заблокирована. ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-06-14, version 30.1.2* I love this game but it makes my phone hot!! So I can only play it in stages. ### 2/5 — Too many mini games *2026-06-09, version 30.1.1* Fun game but opening up the game is annoying clicking through 5-6 mini games and notifications. Can’t even play w out them trying to win a match game, then climb some ladder thing and claim prizes, and so on and so on. ## Frequently asked questions about Hole People ### What is Hole People?
