Um so ärgerlicher ist es, dass das Spiel abstürzt, wenn man diese Zeit erreicht hat. ### 4/5 — Good game, missing old features though. *2022-07-06, version 1.19* I honestly loved the old Credit system and the ability to use whatever car in any map. Please, bring this back, it helps with experimenting when it comes to certain vehicles in maps. ### 3/5 — Eigentlich ein starkes Spiel. *2021-12-28* Ich mag das Spiel echt gerne und habe es oft gespielt. Leider bleibt das Spiel immer hängen, sobald man ein bisschen über 2min Zeit kommt. Das ist echt Schade, wenn man bedankt, dass das Spiel ein witziger kleiner Zeitvertreib mit Abwechslungsreichen Fahrzeugen und Karten ist. Hoffe der Fehler wird irgendwann mal behoben. ### 2/5 — Not worth it. *2021-10-24, version 1.19* This game is just not what it used to be. I remember when you were able to pick your own car with a ton to choose from, but now all you have is a specified car for a certain level. Also there is no challenge at all. Its just a never ending cycle of the same thing. Cops don’t get harder they just drive toward you or crash into something when their behind you. ### 3/5 — Very good but, *2021-10-22, version 1.19* the game always freezes if im on a long run and I lose my progress ### 4/5 — A few issues, but nevertheless flawless *2021-10-16, version 1.19* I’ve been playing PAKO for quite a while, and over time I’ve gone used to the different maps and environments. The airport was once my favorite, and I was able to lay out different routes for survival. At a certain point, I was able to survive as long as I wanted and I sat down to gain my personal record, but unfortunately the game froze and crashed about 4 minutes into my run. That is the one and only issue I’ve faced, but otherwise I love the game! The overall best map for veteran players called “Aftermath” proves completely unpredictable and holds you on the edge of your seat. The cars are so fast that you are forced to do whatever possible to survive, excluding routes because the map is completely random as far as I know (outcomes are always different). Another underrated map for new players is “Finland” where you have cool environments to mess with. Overall, the game can be predictable or extremely intense and unpredictable depending how you want to play it, and that simply is the fun of it! ### 3/5 — 何故？ *2021-10-14* ゲーム自体は凄く楽しませて頂いてるのですが、ある程度プレイ中にフリーズします。そういったバグを修正して頂けるとありがたいです。 ### 2/5 — Bug sur iPhone 12 ios14.7 *2021-08-12* Appli top ! Mais Le jeu plante se fige au bout de 2/3minutes Merci par avance de faire une MAJ de votre appli. ### 3/5 — PLEASE UPDATE! *2021-03-07, version 1.19* This is the best game, I’m so addicted BUT please update it. It crashes after I have figured out how to not crash. This is a 5 star game after it’s fixed. ### 3/5 — Fun But Freezes *2021-03-03, version 1.19* Fun easy driving survival game, if you stay alive too long the game freezes so thats not very good. Fairly simple but fun until it is not ### 3/5 — Nice game, but too many bugs *2021-02-27, version 1.19* I have to admit this is an exciting game with pretty nice graphics and great gameplay. However on my current device (iPhone XR) it has way too much bugs. On each stage, if you play more than a certain time, it will freeze. And there are a few stages, where the fps of the game are terrible low. My device is not too old, so I guess similar issues will also exist on the latest devices. It’s not a bad game, but if it was maintained more carefully, it would be just great. ### 2/5 — Crashes after a few mins *2020-12-28, version 1.19* After a few mins in a continuous run it’ll crash. No score recorded. You can’t change vehicles on most maps ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pako review 22/05/2024 *2024-05-21, version 1.19* I had high hopes for "Pako," especially since it's a paid game, but it has been a huge disappointment. Every time I pass the 1-minute mark on the timer, the game crashes. This repeated issue makes it impossible to enjoy or progress in the game. For a paid app, this is unacceptable. Please fix these issues and improve the game. I would also like to request a refund as the current state of the game is not worth the cost. ### 1/5 — هنگ میکنه *2021-08-25, version 1.19* این بازی پر از ایراد هستش و پولتون رو دور نریزید ### 1/5 — آشغال *2021-08-25, version 1.19* پر از باگ و افتضاح ### 1/5 — bad game *2020-05-22, version 1.19* don’t waste your money and time ### 1/5 — Gamefreezes after 5 min with chase camera on *2020-03-28, version 1.19* Game freezes after 5 min with chase camera on. ### 1/5 — Game freezes sometimes *2020-03-26, version 1.19* Especially when you're breaking your record. It's extremely frustrating and destroying the experience!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Garbage *2020-03-24, version 1.19* Wasting time,game stuck after 2-3 min. ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2020-03-20, version 1.19* Screen cam is way to close to the car. You can’t see anything around until your hitting it. Cars go far to fast for this view. Don’t bother. Pull the screen back a couple hundred feet then maybe. ### 1/5 — Not worth it 🙁 *2020-02-24, version 1.19* Go with PAKOForever instead. The loading time is super slow in comparison, also you can’t go under tree branches. And you die super super quick. It’s really not that fun. Buy PAKOForever instead. That game is fun! ### 1/5 — Time limit *2019-12-21, version 1.19* The game restarts if you get close to 3 min. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — P🤩KO *2026-03-06, version 1.19* Even though it’s £1.99 it’s totally worth it and defiantly recommend this game (MY FAVOURITE GAME IN APP IS “FREE” RIDE AIRPORT) ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2025-03-07, version 1.19* Great game, only one complaint that if I get too great of a time, the game just freezes and I can do nothing but reload the game and lose the good time. Apart from that it is excellent. ### 5/5 — Something about it *2025-01-09, version 1.19* I have played the first and second Version in the forever version Despite the versions of the games, having barely any updates nowadays it’s ok ### 5/5 — This game made me a better person *2024-09-23, version 1.19* This game made me a better person, one day I was watching dank memes from Ohio on YouTube. But after 28 hours I was getting bored, and decided that I needed to do something better with my life. So for 3 whole days (without sleeping) I searched and searched in the App Store and I found this beautiful gem. (PAKO) thanks to this game I learned how to escape the cops in real life, now I’m 78 years old and whenever I rob the cashier I always know how to flee from the cops. I started playing when I was 32 years old ### 5/5 — Good *2023-06-27, version 1.19* VERY GOOD, I PLAYED ANDROID VERSION BEFORE, SO GOOD ### 5/5 — Simple it’s best だな *2023-01-05* このゲーム自分が5歳から12歳【今は12歳】まで遊んでてすっごく楽しいです。あと4年経ってアプデが来なくても全然大丈夫だと思います【他人がそう思わないならすみません】なのでこのゲーム、神ゲーだと思います。このゲームいつかもっと人気になるよう願ってます ### 5/5 — Still play it *2022-08-09, version 1.19* I’m not joking ### 5/5 — Game is the best with one issue *2022-02-10, version 1.19* This game is not only so much fun but it’s nostalgic for me. I’ve played this game for years and been through all of its awesome updates. Sadly the devs don’t actively add stuff to this game anymore. This is by far the best game that Tree Men Games has made and it’s sad to see them focus on other projects that don’t have the charm this game does. ### 5/5 — 73683267 *2021-10-18, version 1.19* 1.99$ ### 5/5 — PAKO is life *2020-11-05, version 1.19* I love this game. But it keeps freezing anytime I get over 2 mins! It’s really frustrating, please fix! I’ll keep playing and telling people about it --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
