### 5/5 — More Levels Coming?

*2026-01-12, version 3.4.4*

This Game Is Fun And Very Awesome, But… Can You Add More New Levels? Please? I Beat The Game And I Was Wondering, Are You Ever Going To Make More New Levels In The Future? If You Do That, I Will Be Super Super Excited! But If You Don’t Feel Like It, Then That’s Ok, Or You Can Make A New Game That Is Called Populus Run 2! But If You Also Don’t Feel Like It, Then That’s Ok.

*2025-08-16, version 3.4.1*

The game is rigged you try to get out of the area when you do something pops up that kill and there is cars blocking you at the same time

### 5/5 — 진짜 재밌어요

*2025-07-27*

제가 게임에 결제를 안해서 풀 게임은 못해봤는데.. 무료 버전도 진짜 너무 원해요..
광고도 잘 안나오고 진짜 체험 정도만 했는데도 너무 재밌네요.. 진짜 완전 결제하구싶어요 ㅠ

### 3/5 — 변경사항

*2025-07-27*

너무너무 귀엽고 재미있지만, 손으로 스와이프하면 좋겠고 계속 달리는 것이 아닌 달리는 버튼을 만들어서 안 눌르면 멈추게 하는 시스템이 있었으면 좋겠네요

### 1/5 — trash

*2025-09-22, version 3.4.3*

this game mechanic is worst than flappy bird, game without any sense just nice graphic but only this. No polish language

### 1/5 — Malo que lo hayan hecho de compra

*2025-05-28, version 3.4.1*

Cuando lo descargue por primera vez con Apple Arcade estuvo súper bien porque pagaba mensualidad por juegos, después lo quitaron pero igual los niveles eran gratis solo que con anuncios, ahora solo puedes jugar 4 niveles y después comprar los otros? Creo que es malo que hagan eso porque a mí me gusta pero no tanto como para comprarlos…

### 1/5 — Zortingen oldum

*2024-12-31, version 3.4.1*

Herkes güzel yorum yazınca yükledim amaaaaaaa tabiki ücretli ve ayrıca kontrolleride zor yüklemeyin çok kötü

### 1/5 — 👎

*2024-12-27, version 3.4.1*

Заплатила 350р что бы пройти игру за один вечер? Спасибо, дура

### 1/5 — Don’t fix something that’s not broken.

*2024-12-24, version 3.4.1*

I absolutely loved this game and its soundtrack. It was very addictive and so much fun to play! But then, the app moved over to android, but now it’s back and worse than ever. Still in it normal glory, the app is back but with a price that is not worth paying. $4 for the whole game just because the app wasn’t getting the recognition it deserved. Personally, I wouldn’t hurt the people that already love the game by making them pay for the whole game. Even just a few dollars less would be better! Before the app was sold for a price, I finished the entire game, but now sadly I cannot because of the restricting wall set by app creators. My review was once much higher and favorable, but now this update has definitely changed my mind. I’m sorry, and hope this helps.

### 1/5 — Цена

*2024-12-24, version 3.4.1*

Почему нельзя играть с рекламой бесплатно ?

### 1/5 — Se ve pesimo

*2024-12-18, version 3.4.1*

Salen muchas luces en la pantalla q no deja ver nada

### 1/5 — Oynamayın bence

*2024-12-18, version 3.4.1*

Aşırı ruhsuz boş bir oyun saçma ve gereksiz.

### 1/5 — Вот вам одна звезда бесплатно. Захотите получить полую версию отзыва. Купите 😂

*2024-12-15*

Игра сама по себе не плохая. Просто почему не написать сразу что платная.

### 1/5 — Самая худшая игра

*2024-12-06, version 3.4.1*

Самая худшая игра в которую я играла. 
1. Все виснет, играть невозможно 
2. Графика класс, но не стоит делать платной вот так, в каждой игре есть выстроенные покупки, но до такой степени…. Скачать игру чтоб пройти коротких 4 уровня…
3. Управление очень неудобное хоть есть 2 варианта 
4. И да, управление этими «людьми» тоже ужасное, нажал налево/право и персонажи меняют траекторию кардинально
