### 2/5 — Impossible without a controller

*2026-07-09, version 1.1.14*

Game looks cool and I like the atmosphere of the thing but to require you to make perfectly timed movements using the touchscreen of an iPad is diabolical.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-07-04, version 1.1.14*

I love this game but they should make a another game like this so we could play more

### 5/5 — Got A Suggestion !

*2026-07-01, version 1.1.14*

Please make this game free but still keep other products of yours premium (needing a purchase);Think of Limbo as a very vivid, good example. 
Also can you guys try to create INSIDE 2 and make that one premium? 
 I genuinely love INSIDE.  
🥲🥲🥲

### 5/5 — love

*2026-06-30, version 1.1.14*

i love it so much i like that it lets you play the first part so u can have a little bit of experience on how the game is and how to play it and it’s definitely worth the money the only thing i would say i dont like is that there is no hints i had to look up how to get past some of the levels but overall amazing game well done

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-06-28, version 1.1.14*

It’s a great game, but why do I gotta pay for it?

### 1/5 — Stressful game

*2026-08-02, version 1.1.14*

Too stressful, character doesn’t run fast enough. Makes my heart race too much I uninstall

### 1/5 — Game not working

*2026-07-06, version 1.1.14*

I download it and it’s not even working for me

### 1/5 — Make it free

*2026-06-29, version 1.1.14*

Good game but make it free can’t afford

### 1/5 — Непроходимая миссия

*2026-04-28, version 1.1.14*

Есть миссия где надо забираться по лестнице и вокруг тебя крутится штука защищающая я так понимаю от магнитного удара или типо того в общем в момент магнитного удара штука которая крутится защищает вообще не там где нужно и пройти игру становится невозможно

### 1/5 — This sucks

*2026-04-22, version 1.1.14*

I don’t have pc so I’ve nvr played before so I don’t know what to do I got to the part with the ditch like the second thing and like am I supposed to run up and jump bcs I’ve been doing that for like 5 min and it don’t work like addd a directions key in the beginning to tell me what I’m doing game sucks waist of a download like this shi pisses me off

### 1/5 — Laggy

*2026-04-12, version 1.1.14*

The lag to it makes the game really duel and boring to play I can’t even enjoy it. The lag takes you out of the experience. I bought the game for it to be this laggy is honestly really disappointing and displeasing to play.

### 1/5 — لمنقش

*2026-04-11, version 1.1.14*

نيكمك ساعة ونا نلعب في لخر قالي شري لعبة ينعدين بابك

### 1/5 — Cdoy

*2026-03-17, version 1.1.14*

Worst ever game ever I played

### 1/5 — too expensive

*2026-02-19, version 1.1.13*

I can’t believe I'm paying $7 for just 1 hour of gameplay. You should release new levels every week!

*2026-02-01, version 1.1.13*

Not free

### 5/5 — inside

*2026-08-15, version 1.1.14*

Inside, this game is very interesting. I hope the official will return to the Chinese region. I still switched to the American region to download. I can't buy the full version at all. 😭😭

### 5/5 — Je recommande!

*2026-08-13, version 1.1.14*

Incroyable! J’adore le style graphique et il n’y a presque pas de narration. Tu dois vraiment penser quoi faire. Excellent jeu, je recommande!

### 5/5 — Amazing Dystopian Sci-Fi

*2026-08-10, version 1.1.14*

Amazing story and visuals and the feel of the game. Simple Indie games always have my heart.

### 5/5 — Inside.

*2026-08-07, version 1.1.14*

This game is incredible, the mist and darkness reflect on a little boy trying to get of this dark experiment.
The texture and the quality is very nice, love it.
Music is great, makes an eerie feeling.
The story is great, you go through many districts and areas like an adventure. 
So far good game, hope you add on to it.

### 5/5 — Inside title

*2026-08-07, version 1.1.14*

Can’t believe this piece of gem is on App Store,I was literally missing out on this absolute masterpiece.

### 5/5 — Una joya

Lo único que es muy corto, saquen la parte 2 y que sea más largo pero la verdad valió la compra, es una joya muy elaborada.
