### 4/5 — One big complaint

*2018-11-06, version 1.05*

I love this game and have been playing it off and on for several years without tiring of it. My big problem is that I can’t play while also listening to a podcast or an audiobook. I can mute the music and all the sounds in the game but it still blocks whatever else I am listening to as soon as I open the game. I would be playing this a LOT more frequently if this was not a problem. AND this is the only game I play with this problem. If I want to play a game and simultaneously listen to an audiobook, I instead have to choose Threes, or Two Dots. Developers, will you please fix this huge problem?!?

### 4/5 — Great Little Game

*2017-07-16, version 1.05*

I often loose interest in a game not long after downloading it. This game however has kept my interest for a while!  Thanks, guys!

### 4/5 — Amazing but...

*2017-05-18, version 1.05*

I just downloaded this game and so far i'm hooked, I didn't take my eyes off it till i ran out of energy—which is the downfall :( The time it takes to wait for energy to rebuild is insanely long—maybe fix it too where it isn't so long?

### 3/5 — Fun but big problem

*2017-04-05, version 1.05*

This is a great and addicting game but your energy does not come back naturally over time do you either have to watch an add or wait 4 hours for bonus energy. Just make a short timer for each point of energy!

### 5/5 — Fun and Addictive

*2017-03-24, version 1.05*

Love playing this so much I paid for the full version. It's a great way to pass time in even short increments and sometimes I end up playing much longer because I love the challenge

### 4/5 — Needs Update, please!

*2017-02-14, version 1.05*

So far good but glitchy

### 5/5 — Great app

*2016-10-16, version 1.04*

Lots of fun, great way to pass the time I would recommend it to everyone.

### 2/5 — Uhhh

*2016-08-21, version 1.04*

This game is very creative but it's slow and I don't rlly understand it.😥

### 3/5 — Doesn't work after tutorial

*2016-08-11, version 1.04*

I did play this game for around an hour after u downloaded it and loved it, it has just the right mix of challenge and entertainment. The problem is, when I closed the game down and reopened it, there was no way for me to continue playing. I clicked on everything and nothing would take me back to the puzzle I was on. I tried clicking on the classic puzzle tile and I had 60 energy, I would love some feedback on if this is just an issue for me, or for other people too.

### 4/5 — Fun, but...

*2016-08-09, version 1.04*

I like this game a lot, but have one big gripe... I don't play it a huge amount during the day, but the little I do play it absolutely trashes my iPhone's battery. Not sure why such a simple little game is so power-hungry!

### 2/5 — Slow to load, crashes, loud

*2016-08-07, version 1.04*

The music and sound effects can be turned off, but not down. It's a shame I would have to turn them off just because the volume is so damned high. Unfortunately, I can't do that today because it won't even load. I still get the pleasure of waiting for the unbelievably long load screen before I see my springboard again :(

### 5/5 — Cathartic

*2016-08-07, version 1.04*

Engages your brain without being frustrating. Adorable graphics just want to make you stop the robots from crying. Always working toward achieving more in my collection, without spending real money!! Great game to take your mind off of things, and short enough to be able to do a quick game while standing in line at the store.

### 5/5 — Asfghv

*2016-07-09, version 1.0.2*

Wfeert

### 2/5 — Irritating

*2016-05-13, version 1.04*

After the game updated, I lost all my current progress and energy! I had 200+ robots fixed and now I have to start all over. I never uninstalled the game, and it's really frustrating and I hope it doesn't happen again. It's an entertaining game, but it shouldn't of reset my progress!

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2016-05-11, version 1.04*

With all the games out there I really like how this one makes my mind work while remaining simple to use.  It's complex problem solving but not impossible or frustrating.  

I think I'm gonna be busy for a few hrs lol

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2016-05-04, version 1.04*

So fun

### 5/5 — Crashes

*2016-05-04, version 1.04*

After completing one of the new tasks the game crashed. Now it crashes every time I try to open the game!
Update- The game works great and the crashes have been fixed!

### 5/5 — I... love, this... game!!!!

*2016-05-01, version 1.0.3*

Keep up the good work, I love this movie 💕

### 5/5 — My opinion on Little Broken Robots

*2016-05-01, version 1.0.3*

This game is my go to whenever I have time to kill, the concept is simple yet really fun and challenging. My only problem with the game is the fact that when you use hints (bought with money$) theres a possibilty that it shows you a line you already had, making you feel like you wasted some money (can happen multiple time in a single game). Anyways keep up the good work devs !

### 1/5 — Energy Counter in the Negatives

*2017-05-17, version 1.05*

This game is cute and a nice way to pass the time, but the energy counter is currently at -23 minutes. Energy does not refill.

### 1/5 — TOO MANY PROBLEMS

*2016-04-26, version 1.0.3*

BUYER BEWARE: don't make an in-app purchase or the game will permanently crash and you cannot open it AT ALL. I've lost all my progress/time/money I've spent on this game. Absolutely awful!!!

### 1/5 — Conflicted

*2016-04-06, version 1.0.2*

I'm conflicted with my review. The game is good fun but it is incredibly frustrating that it stops my music / podcasts every time I complete a level. Especially as levels only take 30-60 seconds to complete so I am constantly restarting what I'm listening to. I've turned off sounds and music but it still happens. It's ruining an otherwise fun experience.

### 1/5 — Better not lose the game

*2016-02-15, version 1.0.2*

So I changed to a new iPhone and downloaded this game. Turns out IT DOESNT BACK UP YOUR PROGRESS. THEN WHY THE F DID THE GAME SIGN IN TO GAME CENTER FOR?! Honestly so done, deleting and never returning. After all the robots I fixed. And if you love listening to your own music while playing this game, tough luck, these developers don't even know how to program a game properly so that when you turn off the game music your own music is able to play.

### 1/5 — This game is ruining the free to play model

*2016-02-09, version 1.0.2*

Fun game but the option to buy more time to play this is a cancer to the free to play market and is ruining the business for future developers the players. The lack of price listed on the unlimited model is adding to insult and should be changed. 1/10 do not buy

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2016-01-30, version 1.0.1*

This game was very fun and challenging but after the new update where you now can no longer use your energy for hints it is different. You now have to buy the hints or watch an add I want to do neither it really is a shame I thought the developers where different from this! Wish I hadn't updated it so I didn't have to delete it!

### 1/5 — Money-grubbing again...

*2016-01-29, version 1.0.1*

Nice idea, but the hint system has been revamped now to get you to watch ads, regardless of if you've paid for the app. Not unusual, I know, but there you go - no different to all the rest.

### 1/5 — Liked it until it got money hungry.

*2016-01-28, version 1.0.1*

I really liked this game and found it refreshing you could buy the full version and then you didn't have to pay any more money for it. You used to have energy which you could use for hints to help you out. This energy would get replenished when you came back to play the game after a time.  With the new update this all changes. It doesn't matter whether or not you bought the full version; if you want hints now, you have to either watch stupid videos or spend money to get them.  I thought these app developers were different, but apparently I was wrong. Disappointing. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Let down

*2016-01-27, version 1.0.1*

Such a good game to challenge your brain but you need to add a timer to restore energy or something different to what you have know. I don't get to go on the game every time a new gift comes up. When I don't collect I'm stuck on the first one of 6 energy???? I get two goes then I can't play anymore

### 1/5 — So many ads god damn

*2016-01-25, version 1.0*

Refer to title

### 5/5 — NO ADS!!

*2024-06-28, version 1.05*

I absolutely LOVE this game. It’s cute, fun, challenging and hardly EVER has any ads!! If you’re looking for a game that doesn’t have ads, this is the one. I haven’t had an ad on this game for years!!

OMGFIRE!

### 5/5 — Hassle free play

*2018-10-14, version 1.05*

This is the game you need to unwind, a puzzle fix that’s easy enough to rally through with enough challenges to slow you down and focus on one thing.

### 5/5 — Fun Game!!!

*2018-07-23, version 1.05*

Very fun!!!

### 5/5 — Amusing Time Killer

*2018-02-21, version 1.05*

Simplistic but gets challenging very quickly.  A great game to kill 10-15 minutes when waiting but not so involved that you get addicted to it.

### 5/5 — JustN

*2017-07-13, version 1.05*

Fun and interesting. Keeps me busy.

### 5/5 — Cute, calming and challenging.

*2017-05-18, version 1.05*

At first I was hesitating on downloading this because I know I grow tired of these games easily but holy cow I just loved how they blended in robots with cuteness and puzzle. If you like cut the rope, this game will definitely catch your eye. Smooth and relaxing. Oh how I wish there was merchandise of those cute robots<3

### 5/5 — Cute and Addicting

*2017-05-18, version 1.05*

This is a great little app with fun puzzles. I could play it for hours.

### 5/5 — very fun

### 5/5 — Adorable & Fun

*2017-05-17, version 1.05*

This game is so cute!!! From the art style to the music, the design of this game is great. Good game to play to relax but also be challenged. And I see you guys are from Atlanta! Woo! ❤️🤖⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
