### 1/5 — Update changed it for the worse

*2025-05-21*

The last update absolutely destroyed the playability of this game. It actually changed how it operated from its original version, which is very similar to the original PC version. now it's a totally broken game and is very different from the original one that I purchased I wish there was an option for a refund because this is fraud

### 5/5 — Great game for all ages

*2025-04-23*

These Pajama Sam games that teaches kids how to not to be scared of the “Dark” and also teach them not to be afraid of “Thunder and Lightning.” A kid with a crazy imagination also a huge superhero fanfic. The actress who voiced Sam in the 3 games is Pamela Adlon who voiced Bobby hill in “King of the hill.” These games are so much fun.

### 1/5 — Update is scam. Steals old app replaces it with broken one.

*2024-11-29*

The Humongous games mean everything to me. I want to support them. However, this game is completely unplayable with the new engine. It's upsetting that I purchased one product that was reliable to one day wake up to a completely new product.

 This wasn't just an update, it's essentially an entirely new app running on something that doesn't work. I wish I could get my money back since I had my old product basically stolen from me through the update. The same thing is happening to ALL the apps that have recieved this 'update' (app switching)

 Game crashes around every 10 clicks on iPad Pro-- you will be unable to click anything. Sometimes it fixes itself when you exit and return to the app, but most of the time it doesn't. You have to save often and reload if you want to progress at all since when you close the game it does not save your current stage (unlike in the old version)

 Frustrates the heck out of my toddler, who I'm trying to introduce to my childhood games. 

 Here's what you should all do instead of buying this: 

 Extract the .HE0, .HE1, .HE3 and .HE4 files from your old Humongous CD Roms on your computer, transfer them onto your iPad on properly named folders. (I.E. the HE0,HE1,HE3,HE4 you extracted from Putt Putt Travels Through Time, you put in it's own folder titled ike the game) Then install ScummVM's iPad and import your games that way.

### 5/5 — Fatty bear

*2024-11-23*

You need to add Fatty Bear’s Birthday Surprise for the IOS! Please!
