Sadly, when I pressed the start button, the game crashed immediately, ElectroMaster, I can’t even get past the first stage. I’ve played these long ago and enjoyed them both extensively, but could you fix these problems so that I can finally play them once more? ### 4/5 — Great game! Needs to be updated! *2017-05-29, version 1.18* This is a great game which I have purchased years ago. However, I'm rating it 4 stars because it needs to be updated to support future versions of iOS, which will only run on 64bit devices. The game will not work on future versions of iOS unless the app is updated. Thanks!~ ### 4/5 — Awesome game to kill time! *2016-12-26, version 1.18* The game is really entertaining love the 8 bit feel and enemies are cute also! Controls can be confusing at first especially how her power and walking are very similar also does anyone have an idea on how to kill the boss for #5 UFO? ### 4/5 — Pretty fun *2014-12-28, version 1.18* The game is pretty cool. Gets a little repetitive but the game itself is pretty nice. ### 4/5 — Great *2013-11-17, version 1.18* This game is really fun. The storyline is a little confusing but i like the madoka magica references also the controls are a little annoying but it is fun. Worth your time downloading ### 4/5 — A Hidden Gem *2013-10-10, version 1.18* A fun, challenging game with some decent touchscreen controls and a strong arcadey feel to the graphics and sound. The cutscenes are kinda runes by the broken English, but you can still get the main jist of things. Also, I loved the Madoka references you shoved in there. I'm surprised that more people haven't rated this game. ### 5/5 — Fun *2012-12-28, version 1.18* Extremely fun game ### 5/5 — nice. *2012-11-15, version 1.18* Click on the screen to control the little girl ,is very simple and very easy game. ### 5/5 — well play *2012-11-15, version 1.18* well play ,goog game ### 5/5 — Reminds me of NES!! *2012-11-15, version 1.18* Very cool retro game ### 5/5 — 五星 *2012-11-14, version 1.18* 世界上还会有不喜欢像素的人么.... 设计很可爱 操纵简单流畅 吃货的奋斗史 ### 3/5 — Is ok *2012-11-14, version 1.18* This game is very cute but quite boring ### 4/5 — ... *2012-11-14, version 1.18* Enjoying this game ### 3/5 — quite boring *2012-11-13, version 1.18* quite a boring game ### 4/5 — * *2012-11-12, version 1.18* graphics are amazing i really love same graphics like this and also very enjoyable gameplay ### 5/5 — addicting arcade game *2012-11-09, version 1.18* my favorite game mode,very nice ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This game *2012-11-09, version 1.18* What is up with this game hate it awful my opinion ### 1/5 — I don't like it!!!! *2012-10-29, version 1.18* Every aspect of this game is lacking from the controls to the graphics to the game play and everything in between. Don't waste your time! ### 1/5 — More bad graphics *2012-10-28, version 1.18* Yet another failure to be offered in the 21st century. If you like retro games though, you might like it. ### 2/5 — Too difficult even on easy *2013-09-22, version 1.18* Boss battles too difficult even on easy. Clue for developer: make easy level easy, ne? ### 2/5 — Retro *2012-10-26, version 1.18* But not very fun ### 2/5 — Fun game, terrible translations *2012-10-20, version 1.18* Sad that the terrible translations and the lack of difficulty scaling hurt what could of been a pretty good time waster. ### 2/5 — Too Repetative with Little Variety *2012-10-20* By level 4,I just didn't feel the game scaled with new features fast enough. Collect more food to bring to more houses may be more difficult, but for me, that didn't equal more fun. The retro design was cool, but the poor English translation got old after level 1. ### 2/5 — Okay *2012-10-19, version 1.18* It's alight, but nothing that people should be dying to play. Gameplay gets boring to me real fast. ### 3/5 — Please add iOS 12 support!! 😭😭😭 *2018-09-28, version 1.18* I loved this app and while I delayed in updating my iOS I played and enjoyed it to no end. I had no idea that if I updated to iOS 12 it wouldn’t even open. It opened before, but no longer. I beg of you, please please update your apps so I may enjoy them once again!! 😰😰😰 ### 3/5 — Not bad *2013-01-30, version 1.18* I liked it. Challenging gameplay. The story makes no sense really but its was kinda silly. However the translations seem rushed and extremely half-assed. Past the first boss its just the same game mechanics being repeated over and over. I return to this app only when I truly have NOTHING better to do/play. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Thank you for bringing these back! *2022-04-11, version 2.01* I downloaded the theme song like a decade back and still love it. The control was ground breaking at the time this game released and still is. Please bring back 2 Electromaster 2 players! ### 5/5 — Need to be updated for the newer iOS version. *2021-05-31, version 1.18* Please update it. ### 5/5 — Update? *2018-07-22, version 1.18* This game is a lot of fun and I’d love to see it updated so I can play it again ### 5/5 — me ear *2015-05-16, version 1.18* Hungry a master ### 5/5 — Great game *2014-03-20, version 1.18* I love this game ### 5/5 — Great game! *2013-09-13, version 1.18* Addictive, cute and fun! ### 5/5 — Best Game EVAR *2013-08-10, version 1.18* This is a truly good game and well built at that! I love this game to the core of the programme and I will always Love it 5 OUTA 5 ### 5/5 — Madoka Magica reference made me LOL *2013-06-13, version 1.18* Super duper cute and the graphics are great! Give this game a try. You've got nothing to lose. ### 5/5 — Everything *2013-05-18, version 1.18* Everything I look for in a game. Great music, especially the art! I also really love the pixel effect. overall, this game is highly addictive, I even recommended it to my friend! ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2013-01-15, version 1.18* This is a really fun and cute game.
