### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2022-01-22, version 1.4.2*

This game is super relaxing and if you are wondering if you should try this, what’s holding you back?

### 3/5 — Good concept but bit on level 2 you cannot have ANY mistakes at all to go to the next level

*2021-04-05, version 1.4.2*

Ruins it for me

### 2/5 — Sorry to say this but...

*2021-03-14, version 1.4.2*

Although it had a nice story at the beginning, but it got soooo much boring for me even during the 1st time of flying!!
It needs to get more attractive not to feel repeating events(birds,gifts,boxes and again) 
Tnx

### 5/5 — S a t I s f y

*2021-03-11, version 1.4.2*

Sooooooo sbsbshshhs

### 5/5 — My opinion👀

*2021-01-12, version 1.4.2*

I really like this game it calms me and it’s aesthetic, their should be another one lol.

### 3/5 — Good game

*2020-03-08, version 1.4.2*

There were some issues but ... It appears that it’s been a year since the last update.  No need to address it them😞.

### 1/5 — Can’t turn off sound!

*2020-01-22, version 1.4.2*

While this appears to be cute game, i don’t keep, nor suggest games that don’t allow complete silence. I turned sound, both music and effects, off yet there are still sound effects. Not acceptable. I’m deleting the game.

### 5/5 — A little late for Christmas but lots of fun anyway

*2020-01-21, version 1.4.2*

Love the graphics. Interesting premise. Fun game to relax with . Besides you don’t want to disappoint the kids!

### 5/5 — Fun and addictive!

*2020-01-02, version 1.4.2*

Simple but fun!  Don’t let it’s simplicity fool you. It takes a bit of practice. My only complaint, I wish the the scenery would change, become more challenging and have some additional features in the game, like getting points if you knock down Christmas trees, for example. Or make it speed up some as you get closer to the top. What would be nice, challenges!  Just my suggestions! Love it regardless!

### 5/5 — Got this few yrs ago

*2019-12-29, version 1.4.2*

TL;DR (but still long, HAHA!!): This is a classic!! It’s not boring if you love a challenge and love to try to beat your own high scores, and it gets harder the higher you go in either mode. I waited so long to get on sale (I’m disabled n must be very choosy, NOT cuz price isn’t worth it). I can’t recall if I just gave in, or if I finally caught a sale. But found in an old folder in my phone n tho not played in a yr, it’s just few days after Christmas, n I think I’m gonna see (n hope) it still plays since I have older device. To the person who deleted ‘boring’ after 5 minutes...MOST DEF YOUR LOSS. To the reviewer who chastised the devs for not having a landscape mode...uhhhhh, cuz 3/4 of screen would be blank which is just a waste for such clean, charming, n fun graphics, and DUMB (or sadistic) considering it’s a VERTICAL CLIMBING GAME, and you have no other need in game but to see what’s above you, as far as u can (tho u do have some control over ur ‘ship’s’ location on screen to suit being always above a balcony to drop off gifts, esp the near impossible birds or mostly blocked balconies, n not waking the kids.
———————————————

I can’t recall if I finally just put the money down cuz I eyed it so long, or if got on a sale. Either way, I’ve not played since last yr, n almost 2021 in few days. I hope it still works, with my phone. It’s simplistic, yet SOMETHING about it makes you want to keep reaching newer heights. Played both modes n love when reach new sections n get super high. Not sure if my score is saved, as idk if I played on this phone or my other. I never used my iPad to play, but that might help with some of the tricky balconies or seeing birds n present pickups easier n sooner, without strain on eyes (hey I’m gonna be 50 in April), n eyesight not the same. Which brings me to why I felt I needed to give a more current review than a yr ago or so, while also addressing the reviewer who shows at the bottom of mine. WHY would you EVER POSSIBLY WISH THIS GAME TO BE IN LANDSCAPE?!?! That would leave at least half a screen without graphics and a MUCH SHORTER TIME TO SEE THE BALCONIES COMING. In fact, I’m glad the devs fixed it so this CANNOT happen, as I would be irritated if I accidentally tilted my phone or something, and it went to landscape in the middle of the game. If ppl WANT that as some sort of demented n frustrating extra challenge of only seeing two MAYBE three balconies ahead (if I recall tho, in portrait that was about all you saw esp once reached higher levels, so it just makes no sense).

Too bad one reviewer deleted this ‘boring’ game after 5 minutes. I waited a VERY LONG time in the app release world (I think it was out almost a yr!), n idk about newer devices etc, but if this can remain a game available to those with older devices as well as newer, this is DEFINITELY A CLASSIC that you may play awhile, then either remember n check App Store or happen along sometime and re-download. For me, I think it’s remained in one of my phones since I got it.

Sry for the long review, but wanted to chime in with a more current one, plus I just couldn’t believe someone actually was upset at the devs for not allowing landscape mode?!
