### 5/5 — Worth owning an iPhone for!

*2024-12-06, version 1.1.1*

Simple brilliant. And new content! I am back to it after a year's break, wish I had checked sooner. Love it! More more more please........

UPDATE: I reviewed this game years ago and still love it today but was sad to see my review not appearing. This game only has 1 review how is that possible? It’s absolutely genius. And now I am playing McPixel 3 which is beyond next level. The humour and animations are superb, so much subtlety to it, very clever. I don’t know who SOS is but I hope he knows his work is appreciated. I will play everything he creates. Please keep doing more 🙏❤️

### 5/5 — Underrated game

*2024-06-05, version 1.1.1*

This game should be famous

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2020-10-19, version 1.1.1*

Incredibly late review but this is a good game, that’s all I have to say

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2019-12-14, version 1.1.1*

Wish there was a hint option

### 3/5 — Simplistic but funny

*2017-03-05, version 1.1.1*

Game grew on me after the first few minutes once I figured it out. There isn't much to do but it's entertaining enough for a few dollars and some of the 'gags' are pretty funny; others were really stupid. Also the loading/title screen before every scene is super annoying.

### 4/5 — Fun!

*2017-01-03, version 1.1.1*

Had an issue with it not opening on iPad. Contacted the developer - they responded quickly with a fix.

### 2/5 — Auf Deutsch???

*2016-12-17, version 1.1*

Wo kann ich das Spiel auf Deutsch einstellen???Steht auf Deutsch in der Beschreibung

### 5/5 — What is there to say?

*2016-08-18, version 1.1*

I saw pewdiepie play this a few years ago and I just remembered it and so I decided to play it for myself and it just so happened to be on the App Store! This game is amazing and hilarious, it's sad to see that it doesn't get updated anymore but if it did that would be awesome!!

### 5/5 — Super!

*2016-08-09, version 1.1*

Genialna gra! :D

### 5/5 — Pure absurd. Love it.

*2016-01-30, version 1.1*

Solving ridiculous puzzles never been more enjoyable!
