Macht Spaß und läuft sehr gut auf dem MacBook Air M2. ### 5/5 — Where is spiderman? *2026-08-04* Add pls ### 1/5 — It starts off brilliantly but fizzles out in the end *2026-07-09* The gameplay feels absolutely stunning at first. Yet as you spend more time in the game, the levels become far too repetitive with nothing new to offer. Later on, the developers didn’t even bother designing unique weapon artwork or naming new weapons. Entering the Dome skips straight to the final wave of enemies, and the final boss is barely any harder than regular minions. It really feels like the studio rushed to cash out and abandon the project, leaving such a shoddy, rushed ending. **Developer response:** We've raised this with the dev team - thanks for the feedback! -Luci@SMG ### 5/5 — I’m so happy this is Back!! *2026-07-01* I’m so glad this is no Longer on a Subscription Service this was the only reason I had Apple Arcade and now I own the game I purchased right away no hesitation this game is Fun and Funny I Really Hope this Get a Switch Port one day I’d Definitely Purchase this on Console Especially on Nintendo Switch **Developer response:** Glad to hear that you’ve enjoyed playing our game! All the best, Luci@SMG ### 3/5 — Bgvnhg *2026-06-27* This game takes so long to load that I crashed so hard I can’t even play no more,but when it dose load its quite a fire game **Developer response:** We've raised this with the dev team - thanks for the feedback! -Luci@SMG ### 5/5 — Und ich.. *2026-06-25* ..befürchtete bereits solche Spiele wären ausgestorben. Sammeln, kämpfen, Waffen und Ausrüstung bauen, stärker werden. Dazu eine bezaubernde Grafik und ein flüssiges Flugverhalten. Und das Sahnehäubchen: Demoversion und TUSCH: Einmalkauf. <3 „Von innen grösser als von aussen“ 😂 **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für das Feedback! Alles Gute, Luci@SMG ### 5/5 — Really enjoyed the demo *2026-06-17* This is clearly a game made with a lot of love. Really enjoy the characters and the combat, probably going to buy **Developer response:** Glad to hear that you’ve enjoyed playing our game! All the best, Luci@SMG ### 1/5 — Should be renamed to “no way to play it” *2026-06-05* It is beyond me why anyone thinks it okay to upload a game where you cannot set your own keys for movement etc. Shows an absolute disrespect for the game player. ### 5/5 — BlastronautZ *2026-05-29* One of the highest quality mobile games out there. Definitely worth the $5. My only complaint is that the leaderboards for the BlastronautZ mini game is full of blatant cheaters. I love this mini game and probably have played it 10x as much as the normal game and yet my high score is still only 400,000. The top 5 spots are all over 1,000,000,000. The devs would know that this simply isn’t possible without cheating. I hope they remove these cheaters so the real gamers can get their credit. P.S. you should release BlastronautZ as a standalone game with more levels, it’s so fun!!!! **Developer response:** We've raised this with the dev team - thanks for the feedback! -Luci@SMG ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-05-14* Bad game **Developer response:** We are sorry to hear you did not enjoy your time with the game. We always appreciate any feedback you might have to improve the experience. All the best, Luci@SMG ## Frequently asked questions about No Way Home ### What kind of game is No Way Home?
