Altough the game does resemble Mario in many ways it also has it's flaws. First the controls don't always function the way you want them to. There have been many occasions where i try to jump but the jump bottun does not respond which causes me to lose a life or die. Also i wish the developers would have added different enemies rather than the same bowl with a snowman inside or spinning toy top or whatever it is. It gets repetetive rather quickly. Another issue like someone else mentioned is when you are fighting a boos and die instead of just picking up where you left off, you need to start at the begining of the level over and over and over again which gets fustrating and boring at times. It's certainly not a bad game and does have a lot of promise but it still needs a bit of work. ### 3/5 — Pretty good *2010-09-27* I like this app but it would be cooler if the character didn't look actually like Kirby. Also the bosses are fun but if your doing it on hard you have to wait for the boss to be hitable again. ### 3/5 — Uh *2010-06-30* It's not bad and you say you get inspiration from sonic an mario but give credit to Kirby for your charcter design. ### 4/5 — So fun! *2010-07-25* It reminds me of Mario brothers :) GEt it if you like mario brothers ### 4/5 — Level 1 *2010-07-09* How do you get the key on top of the white platform in level 1? I go on the top of the steps, but i can only jump under the white platform, not on top of it. ### 4/5 — blueish purpleish kirby *2010-07-06* this is a good game. it seems like an original game but draws a lot of inspiration/influence from classic platformers like kirby (see character), mario, and sonic (when you use the shield power). My biggest gripe is that there is no check point where the boss guy is. I am on level six and I have no problem getting to the boss but the boss is hard. I wish I could just start at fighting the boss rather than having to do the wholeeeeeee level again. I'm starting to get bored with it cause I've played the castle level too many times which I am now sick of and I'm stuck at the boss. :( ### 4/5 — It's good *2010-07-01* They need to work on the controls then it would be perfect. ### 4/5 — I can't get an achievement I earned *2010-06-30* I got the gem on area 3 and it never gave me the achievement Please fix Good game otherwise ### 4/5 — Fun. *2010-06-28* It's a nice little game nut it needs more time. I don't like rushing through at some times. The character is obviously a rip-off of Kirby but whatever... I reccomend you buy it. ### 4/5 — Cute *2010-06-12* I really like the game but I'm having a bit of trouble with the moving controler and bounce controler and blowup defence controler. They don't always work when I want them to. Please fix ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it! *2010-08-22* Totally better than Ricky! Say what you wanna say haters, but this is an awesome game! Closest to Mario we'll get on the iPod Touch or iPhone! ### 5/5 — Awesome!!! *2010-08-15* Bootleg Kirby/Mario/sonic soooooooooooooooo much fun!! And it's challenging. I got it for FREE!!! ### 5/5 — SHAMWOOHOO *2010-07-12* This Is My Game I am A Pro If This Game Had WiFi Or Bluetooth I Can Beat U With A Blink Of A I ### 5/5 — Surprisingly great! *2010-07-02* Controls could use some polishing up but it's totally manageable. Graphics are pretty cool. Some things that should be added: -boxes to break with powerups -when you get your attack powerup you should get to keep it til your hit. -improved physics Giving 5 stars instead of 4 because I really hope this is updated! ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2010-06-30* I'd give it more stars if I could. This is a very fun game & it reminds me of Mario, sonic, & Kirby; which are all classics<3 couldn't had asked for anything better. I had been waiting for a Mario game but this I the closest I'll get, and that's fine. Even sone backgrounds are quite similar to those games. Great game! Keep up the good work:) & I recommend everyone to get it, you won't regret it!:) ### 5/5 — A lot of fun *2010-06-24* The character is really cute, and the graphics are well-done. It's a fun game, especially if you like retro scroll games. Worth the money! ### 5/5 — Great app one request *2010-06-20* Can you make the dpad bigger it is hard to use right now as it is sooo small! Otherwise great game thank you! ### 5/5 — Very fun platformer! *2010-06-03* Really cool 2D side-scrolling platformer! Nice graphics and smooth game play. Level difficulty is challenging without being over the top. With 22 levels, this game gives you alot for the price. Check it out! ### 5/5 — Awesome!!! *2010-05-29* This game is Awesome!! Very very addictive. One of the best side scrolling game. Brings back fun memories:) ### 5/5 — Great Game Get It! *2010-05-29* If you Mario and are looking for a good platformer for iPhone pick this game up ASAP. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
