However this time Im having a lot of lag issues. Not sure why just here and there the game will crash, it’s happened about 10 times today alone trying to play it to relive this nostalgic game but is getting annoying. Please help ! ### 4/5 — Would like to give a 5 *2022-08-19, version 1.3* Only played the free part. Fun game. Wish the controls were more responsive. Also does glitch a lot and need to be restarted. Thankfully there are plenty of save points. I never pay for games because I’m incredibly, incredibly cheap, but I hope this developer makes another free one. ### 3/5 — Fantastic game but a bit glitchy. *2022-04-07, version 1.3* Often while playing if I died or moved to another area after several times, the game would become unplayably laggy and I would have to close the app and restart it. The controls are a bit small as well, it would be good if there was an option to increase the size of them. I realise that it has now been many years since this app was last updated so these issues aren’t going to be resolved (and will most likely only worsen as the app becomes less compatible with newer versions of iOS) but I most certainly don’t regret paying the small amount for the full game as it gave me many hours of enjoyment. I love playing older games mostly out of nostalgia. Thanks. ### 2/5 — Painful as hell but entertaining *2022-01-24, version 1.3* The mines with the barriers are the worst enemies ever especially when you have to platform with them following you and theres a level(s) with broken collision/tile layout ### 2/5 — Froze *2019-11-03, version 1.3* My game froze ### 4/5 — Nubs adventure *2019-01-08, version 1.3* Would have given 5 , reminds me of limbo. But unfortunately crashes and freezes every 5 mins. Cheers ### 5/5 — A piece of art *2018-05-26* This game is very well designed, despite the old-style graphics it has a very good soundtrack, gameplay mechanics and story. Worth every penny you spend for the full game, sadly I can't because I am still a student. ### 5/5 — This is how a mobile game should be *2018-04-10* Simple, but really nice looking graphics. Fun gameplay. Works offline and has a good save system. This game really feels like the developers cared about making a good game. It's like a real PC or console game properly scaled down to work on the go. Definitely worth buying the full version and a 5 star rating. ### 5/5 — Very good! *2018-03-08, version 1.3* It’s one of my favorite games, and though it has basic graphics, it is still a great game! ### 5/5 — Khuloud peach *2018-02-17* I like the song and the animated and everything and also the story and the adventure please make more of these amazing apps 😉 ### 5/5 — Fantastic!!! *2018-01-13, version 1.3* This was an amazingly game! Beautifully pixelated world! Challenging, frustrating, and rewarding! Check it out! ### 5/5 — Awesome little game! *2017-08-24, version 1.3* This game was a great metroidvania offer on the iOS. Worth the buy! Wish I would've come across it sooner! ### 5/5 — Excellent *2017-05-25, version 1.3* Worth every penny. As fun as it is difficult, those save points will be beacons of light in the darkness. ### 4/5 — Really well made, but *2017-03-04, version 1.3* I wish there was more involved in the making of this game, really well made game otherwise. ### 5/5 — Cool game *2017-02-17, version 1.3* I love the game it really cool ### 5/5 — One Bug *2017-02-15* I absolutely loved this game. The only problem is that in one of the Far Away levels, all the textures are shifted one block to the right, but they act like they aren't, causing you to go through blocks. I loved this game and I would like to see this patched in the future. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Needs updated gamepad support *2024-01-29, version 1.3* Doesn’t support all MFI gamepads like gamevice flex or razer kishi ### 1/5 — Too bad *2019-07-17, version 1.3* I love the game. It’s actually great. But if I pay for a game, it shouldn’t glitch this much. Please fix it. Freezes randomly and needs to be restarted. ### 1/5 — WARNING PAY WALL DETECTED *2017-10-27, version 1.3* this game was a lot of fun for about 10 minutes, then BAM pay wall. when will these companies learn that micro transactions that allow you to proceed or get an advantage are dead. should have sold characters, VISUAL upgrades, NOT “pay to proceed” BS. FAIL, uninstall. ### 1/5 — Игра классная. *2017-02-20, version 1.3* Don't work support gamepad :((( Cool game! Очень красиво и атмосферно сделано. Поменяю на 5 звёзд когда починят поддержку геймпада. ### 1/5 — Broken *2016-12-06, version 1.3* Poorly maintained. Got to 55% and am stuck on a glitched level that has no exit and no way to return to main world. Reached out to developer some days ago but have had no response. A shame as this would otherwise be a 5* review. ### 1/5 — Bugs everywhere *2016-03-05, version 1.3* Good game, but it needs to be updated. There are significant bugs including ones that massively mess up platforms and hit/landing areas. ### 1/5 — App broken *2016-01-31, version 1.3* Loved playing this game, I even decided to buy it. Now that I've paid for it the app won't even load and constantly crashes. ### 1/5 — $$$$$$ *2015-12-11, version 1.3* Way too expensive. It's an 8-bit adventure for heaven's sake. ### 1/5 — Too expensive *2015-12-11, version 1.3* The game is well made. But so are a ton of others and they cost half what this costs or less. ### 1/5 — Black background *2015-09-28, version 1.1* FOR SOME REASON ON MY IPHONE 6 plus WHEN I Playing THE GAME, THERE WAS A COMPLETELY BLACK BACKGROUND AND I COULDNT SEE THE CHARACTER PLZ FIZ THIS ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Bella *2026-02-27, version 1.3* I love this game and the music sounds so relaxing makes me think a lot about life,peace and quiet. ### 5/5 — Шедевр *2026-01-03, version 1.3* Это великолепно, ни копеечки ни жалею, затягивает будь здоров. Давным давно в детстве скачала, начала играть, но поменяла телефон, за годы забыла название,уже отчаялась. Но с помощью ии нашла по описанию и о чудо игра детства наконец найдена и пройдена, ни о чем не жалею, до слез. Но второй босс, которого надо победить змеей, вынул из меня всю душу, часа полтора проходила, управлять ей не очень удобно. А так 100 из 10! ### 5/5 — Great game but… *2023-12-17, version 1.3* I played this game for many hours a couple years ago and it was lots of fun but now as I am playing it the game seems to freeze every 5-10 minutes forcing me to quit out of the game which has become a bit annoying and hopefully this can be fixed ### 5/5 — LOVE THIS GAME *2021-06-12* Okay, I’ve been playing this since I was five and I love it!!!!!😃 the story, graphics, and plot are all just amazing. Five stars any day of the week ### 5/5 — j *2020-08-18, version 1.3* cool ### 5/5 — Great game! One of the rare jewels to find and play *2020-06-06, version 1.3* Great game! I rarely write a comment but this one is well deserved. So many levels and all fun and challenging. ### 5/5 — Loved it! *2020-02-16* Great phone game. I’m a sucker for old school style games. Nubs looks silly, and it’s quirky for sure. But it’s difficult, and the challenges they present took a lot of imagination and technical genius. 🤖 ### 5/5 — Please update *2019-07-02, version 1.3* Great game, I’ve had no problems with it. However, it’s been 3 years since it’s last been updated. I fear that if it’s not updated within the next year or two, it’s not going to be able to run on the newer versions of iOS. Overall though, the game itself is fun and as far as I have experienced, bug free. For anyone looking into it, definitely download. Just be aware of the whole update issue that could get rid of the game in a year or two if it’s not fixed. ### 5/5 — Work of art *2019-03-17, version 1.3* The title pretty much sums up my thoughts on this game. It’s fun, it’s awesome and it really lives up to its name. I LOVE THIS GAME! 😄 ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2019-01-09, version 1.3* I love the dynamics of the game. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
