It took me four hours to do. ### 4/5 — Needs more beaches or options *2020-07-22, version 0.4.5* Game is okay, please add more beaches or something ### 3/5 — Not too much fun *2020-07-07, version 0.4.5* Had about 2 hours of fun, then got bored It has potential, but not enough variation for my liking ### 4/5 — Review *2020-07-01, version 0.4.5* The game is great! You guys should add some music, and the adds are kind of weird ### 5/5 — The best game I have ever played *2020-06-22, version 0.4.5* DoULOD ### 3/5 — It is so slow getting money *2020-04-15, version 0.4.5* It is redidulisisly slow getting money . it needs to be fixed it bugs me a lot and you need to fix it.i want to be a pro in this game. Someone needs to fix it now ### 5/5 — No capp *2020-04-08, version 0.4.5* It’s cool 💯🤷🏾‍♂️ but only 3 beaches 🥱🥱 I played for 2 days straight got everything maxed out checks on em but it’s only 3 beaches don’t get me wrong this game hella coo ### 4/5 — Excellent *2020-03-18, version 0.4.5* The game is fun, upgrades aren't too much of a pain to acquire, but sometimes it seems like when you’re not playing, currency doesn't build up at all, which maybe it doesn't but it should in my opinion. ALSO, im at Level 62 now and still no signs of opening another one. Which is a bummer. Seems like once you get your 3rd school open and maxed out, theres no point in continuing the game. Would love for some updates. ### 5/5 — Wave idol *2020-03-01, version 0.4.3* Sooooooooo good ### 4/5 — You forgot something *2020-02-14, version 0.4.3* If you did not realize I wanted you to make it like this: when a super wave comes I want you to make it wash up shore and swallow the school. (And people could surf in and nobody gets hurt) ### 4/5 — The game is good! But.... *2020-02-12, version 0.4.3* The game is a really good game. But there’s only one thing missing: Sound. ### 4/5 — No offline earnings *2020-02-12, version 0.4.3* This game would be 100x better if they had offline earnings. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Need more design *2020-12-25, version 0.4.5* People in game didn’t have face and too much money to buy stuff oof ### 1/5 — Only 3 beaches *2020-08-21, version 0.4.5* Took me two hours to beat. The developer clearly just gave up on the third beach because he didn’t understand how to scale down the first few beaches when you pan out from them. You can tell because your newer model iphone gets hot demonstrating his/her poor understanding of memory management in app development. Basically when they max out stats, you give them a single counter with a large number and you stop monitoring all those little variables. Also, you should only show one beach at a time. Of course three beaches with 200 animations each every second and hundreds of counters and multipliers is going to eat up memory. Consolidate the counters into a single counter whenever they max out. No sound, three levels, lots of commercials. Boring. ### 1/5 — No sound *2020-08-15, version 0.4.5* A game needs sound. ### 1/5 — Betcha gonna watch advertisements! *2020-06-06, version 0.4.5* Rollercoaster tycoon style game with advertisement boobytraps. Mindless crap that’s impossible to lose, because they want you to tap on advertisements. ### 1/5 — Ad Generator *2020-01-31, version 0.4.2* Sooner or later you’ll realize that this whole game is nothing more than an add generator. Cool graphics and fun up until the truth hits you. ### 1/5 — It’s crap *2019-09-12, version 0.2.2* This game is garbage ### 2/5 — Fun but... *2021-01-24, version 0.4.5* Game starts out basically like any idle game. Simple good fun. Only downside is there are just 3 beaches, took me about two days to be COMPLETELY maxed out. ### 2/5 — No Offline Earnings *2020-11-18, version 0.4.5* Game was fun for about 30 minutes. Maxed out my stats in about 2 hours of gameplay. You make almost no money from being away from the app. I make ~1.3T a minute. After 8 hours away from the app I got 3T. ### 2/5 — Fun for the first hour *2020-06-29, version 0.4.5* The game is really fun until you have to watch adds to keep leveling stuff up and there needs to be more places ### 2/5 — lol I crazy *2020-03-28, version 0.4.5* 3 boards? Got it all like maxed out. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ahí mi reseña *2022-12-08, version 0.4.5* Les hace falta sonido o música ### 5/5 — Boring; only 3 locations. *2021-05-16, version 0.4.5* Nothing todo after you max out the 3 locations. Was very boring. Lots of ads. Lots of waiting. No stats and no achievements to look at. Finished in 3 days. Deleted. ### 5/5 — It is the best *2021-04-24, version 0.4.5* ITV Vick,b,c,,v.c,b,siring is not a bad guy Egg C Goldfish,g,c,b, ### 5/5 — I like it in the butt *2021-01-03, version 0.4.5* 69 ### 5/5 — Love *2020-12-29, version 0.4.5* I love this game because I am a surfer ### 5/5 — Just started it and ...

I have only been playing for about 15 minutes and I already love it! Keep doing what your doing! -hehehe ### 5/5 — Sick *2020-08-17, version 0.4.5* Haven’t even played it yet but I just wanted to write a good review cuz I am a surfer and this looks legit Love you ### 5/5 — LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE *2020-07-22, version 0.4.5* Once upon a time, my friend and I downloaded Idle Surf. It was the best four hours of our lives. At first, we were a little bit confused, but very quickly we caught on to the game. It was such a fun competition between the two of us to see who could level up faster. We loved the simplicity of the game. We are so so so so so so sad that there are no more levels to complete. We both dearly miss this game. But, there is only one downside to playing this game: THERE ARE NO SOUND EFFECTS!!! If there were sound effects, it would greatly enhance our gaming experience. We love you Idle Surf!! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤍🤎💖💘💟 ### 5/5 — Thanks *2020-06-25, version 0.4.5* Best game ever --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
