### 3/5 — No one

*2020-07-17, version 1.1.4*

Great idea but no one to play with. I still have my base 1k and havent seen any bots

### 4/5 — Great game but...

*2017-12-03, version 1.1.4*

I love playing it with my kids, however, this game hasn't been updated for some time!  Hopefully, with more players and an Apple watch update, this game will become more popular. Until then, tell your friends to download it!!

### 3/5 — It's great! But...

*2016-02-22, version 1.1.4*

This app is great but it needs more players! I have shared it to my friends so they can enjoy the fun! Also I cannot figure out how to get boys to appear I've had this app for a while and they never appear so I need some help!

### 4/5 — App for watch pls!!

*2015-05-18, version 1.1.4*

I think it would be fantastic if we could get a version of this app for the apple watch! Please hear my feedback...thx!!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-12-20, version 1.1.4*

Simple and fun, like this review

### 4/5 — Great idea, needs more people

*2014-12-19, version 1.1.4*

This is a great game idea, but there isn't enough people currently playing for it to be affective. Find a good way to spread the word, and this game will do great!

### 4/5 — Great!

*2014-12-18, version 1.1.4*

Great app, but needs more people. The app is really cool but nobody has it right now. You guys need to do some advertising and get to the top because this game has a very high potential.

### 4/5 — Bon concept

*2014-11-12*

Super idée, mais personne pour jouer et au bout de 12h, pas un seul bot rencontré :( (iphone 5s)
J'ai retenté l'expérience avec mon iPhone 6 mais l'app plante au démarrage :(

### 3/5 — Good idea

*2014-09-20, version 1.1.2*

It's a good idea but it isn't fun unless you have 4G or 3G and if no one has it

### 5/5 — Fun and fantastic

*2014-09-03, version 1.1.2*

This app is amazing its great to coordinate groups of pkpkts to distract a target while one executes the theft. Which leads me to my next point, CLANS!!! I want to be able to hang out with my team mates without them taking my money.
Also bribing people to do things irl like distractions of the victim and things like that!

### 5/5 — Siick game

*2014-07-21, version 1.1.2*

Y'all need to download this game, play it, enjoy it and encourage other people to download it.  11/10

### 5/5 — Fun

*2014-07-15, version 1.1.2*

I love the point of the game

### 4/5 — Good idea, good dev

*2014-05-25*

This is a very good idea, a good game and performance.
Congratulations

### 4/5 — Store

*2014-04-09, version 1.1.2*

This is a fun game, but you should be able to buy things with the money you earn.

### 4/5 — Havent met a single person with it

*2014-04-03, version 1.1.2*

Hope more people get this. No one at universal studios had it. :( really fun messing around with friends though!

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2014-04-01, version 1.1.2*

Great app. watch out for sneaky people, trying to take your money.

### 1/5 — Bad n00b exp

*2015-08-08, version 1.1.4*

Don't let people be stolen from while they are setting up the game.

### 1/5 — Like the concept, but still needs work.

*2014-02-15, version 1.1*

My boyfriend and I downloaded this and thought it would be fun. After I stole money from him, it said we were blocking each other even though we never hit the block button. We both tried to redownload the app after deleting the app and our data, but we're still experiencing the same problem.

### 1/5 — No one around to play with :/ makes it a fail.

*2014-02-08, version 1.0.3*

I live in a densely populated area and travel very much the same. I am from the bay area and there is no one to play with. There needs to be a better outsource than relying solely on the radius of a bluetooth. A reward of some sort could be enticing enough to get people to want to download such a simple developed game. i want to play, but who can i play with? Friends are unwilling to play because there isnt any incentive or too easily to just sit next to each other "pick pocketing" i am hoping for better ingenuity from this.. Because it really falls short to what it claims by the lack of people playing

### 1/5 — Lame

*2014-01-08, version 1.0.3*

Lame app as it's solely dependent on the app being popular..... I live in a major US city San Francisco and have never seen anyone else with the app.

### 2/5 — Crashes when I try to load it plz fix

*2014-11-20, version 1.1.2*

Looks like a good game but need to fix the crashes

### 2/5 — Fix Now

*2014-08-03, version 1.1.1*

I can be right next to my wife who has the game and no matter what the game won't find her.... It's ridiculous that the game can't work consistently. Needs to be fixed then it could be a lot of fun; more people need to download it though for it to really be fun.

### 2/5 — Ehhh

*2014-03-29, version 1.1.2*

Would like it, IF I COULD GET ANYONE TO PLAY WITH ME!!!!! And I really wish that bots came A LOT more often.

### 2/5 — Had this for a few months now....

*2014-03-16, version 1.1.2*

...still not seen another user.

It might be a good idea to implement some kind of map into the app to give some idea if where other users might be. I've had this game for a few weeks now and have never come across another player.

### 2/5 — No other Pkpkt-ers

*2014-01-15, version 1.0.3*

Live in LA and in NYC on business. Was at both LAX and JFK and yet to come across a single other Pkpkt-er. Love the concept of this but this is not a game to play solo. Guess who still has their full $1K?!?!

### 2/5 — No one to pickpocket

*2014-01-09, version 1.0.3*

Would love to play but there is never anyone available nearby to pickpocket!!

### 5/5 — please update!!

*2024-10-03, version 1.1.4*

would be really fun to play nowadays!! just re downloaded it and it would be cool if it got an update for the newer software. thank you

### 5/5 — Game's easy to play, fun when you can.

*2021-11-01, version 1.1.4*

Honestly it just lacks marketing, and if this game was popular, it would probably be a smash hit.

### 5/5 — Hello I am here from the future.

*2020-09-04, version 1.1.4*

I really like the idea of the game but damm it so lonely being the only person that has this app like I mean you need more people put up some adds pls if your not dead and all.

### 5/5 — Amazing game but..

*2017-11-11, version 1.1.4*

It needs more players if you could get adds out somewhere this gAme would explode. Also I have the Apple Watch and a expansion to there would be awesome. It is a really good game and has lots of potential

### 5/5 — Great game but not very active

*2015-07-06*

More people need to play the game for the full experience when I got it I was the 67 player or something so I have yet to run into a real opponent although it's a great idea some way to advertise it and a like a way so that every day you can watch a video to get 0.01 of a head start second and than use that for more ads this game could really take off please make more games like this it's so great

### 5/5 — It's awesome

*2015-06-30, version 1.1.4*

I definitely recommend playing it to anyone!

### 5/5 — LOVE IT!!!

*2015-04-25, version 1.1.4*

This game is really awesome and sounds so fun!! But there needs to be more people that would be awesome just like some other reviews said and advertise this so people can see it.

### 5/5 — Such a great game

*2015-04-04, version 1.1.4*

This game is so fun but it just needs more people

### 5/5 — Should be fun. Need more people!

*2015-01-23, version 1.1.4*

We need more people with the app. Would be a perfect game to take off in college. That’s your best target people group to market to. Then the game will explode!

### 5/5 — Evil and awesome

*2015-01-22, version 1.1.4*

A great game to play with your jerk friends.
