Really, truly horribly ugly. Just make the games play, stop drawing glowing pink rectangles around every gd thing. ### 4/5 — This app is good but.. *2026-08-24, version 3.3.0* Recently, there’s been something weird with the genesis controls. You see, I was trying to play the rom hack “Sonic-Boom” but for some odd reason, when I pressed “A”, it imputed it as down. Which is very strange. Also, the “start” button became the right button. Can you please fix this issue or add a keybind option that in setting for touch screen? ### 4/5 — Lost all my progress *2026-08-18, version 3.3.0* This is really good as an emulator, but for some reason all of my save files for one of the games got fully corrupted and doesn’t work + even if I try to use a different emulator to maybe fix the bug on the app the save files don’t, other then that the other games are completely fine, so be careful for that happening and always export your save files. ### 2/5 — DAWG MY APP KEEP CRASHING *2026-08-02, version 3.3.0* I love this app until when I download it it doesn’t work it keep crashing and I need a update for this to not crash please ### 2/5 — Bad *2026-07-21, version 3.3.0* The GameCube emulator works kinda, but when I try playing N64 games, or any other, it’s just a bit lagging and not perfect, and this emulator is just bad. ### 4/5 — Beautiful. Runs my Atari 8 bit stuff. Thank you dev. All the best and good luck to ya!! *2026-07-11, version 3.3.0* As above!!!!! Vlad. ### 4/5 — Too much storage *2026-06-24, version 3.3.0* This app has to much storage 💀🙏 ### 2/5 — It’s good but what’s the problem with my game? *2026-06-08, version 3.3.0* It seems to be a really good emulator, but when I try to run Super Smash Melee on the 3ds it just doesn’t work. Idk why this happens stating I’m running it on a 17 pro😭 ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work keep skipping *2026-06-04, version 3.3.0* I ### 4/5 — Sideload JIT *2026-05-25, version 3.3.0* I'd happily pay the $99 if you offered a sideload option with JIT. ### 3/5 — FIX CRASH ON OPEN *2026-05-23, version 3.3.0* My guy, how did you even ship this one? Did you even test it? Please fix this soon. ### 4/5 — JIT *2026-05-18, version 3.3.0* 4 stars cause there is not JIT compilation so games lag on GameCube WE NEED JIT ### 3/5 — GameCube games and sound need more fixing, it needs more updating and when is the ps2 emulator? *2026-05-18, version 3.3.0* It’s awesome to have GameCube games to replay them again getting back to nostalgia era, but the main problem is the sounds are glitchy and the Dialogue can hardly speak clearly, it needs more updating and fixing! When is the ps2 emulator coming out I want to replay some ps2 games again! ### 2/5 — Crashes on game startup *2026-05-13, version 3.3.0* Idk why but I don’t think this emu can run omega ruby sadly. Also the fact it doesn’t have jit doesn’t help. Very bad user interface too. I recommend maniac as it looks better and actually runs games. (All games were acquired legally) ### 4/5 — Wasn’t even saving *2026-05-11, version 3.3.0* It wasn’t saving but it’s still amazing!. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Weak *2026-07-20, version 3.3.0* I tried to put gta liberty city story’s and it didn’t work ### 1/5 — Worst emulator on the App Store *2026-06-23, version 3.3.0* It baffles me how an app can even be released in such a state of disarray. This is the most buggy emulator I’ve ever used. It glitches out in nearly every area. Phone gets extremely hot. Lack of video options. Don’t bother with this app. It needs a massive overhaul. ### 1/5 — App closing malfunction *2026-06-23, version 3.3.0* For Anyone else ,does it automatically close while loading a rom/emu ? ### 1/5 — Fix this *2026-05-19, version 3.3.0* Bro it keeps kicking me out of the app when I open it even I keep restarting my phone multiple times and uninstall the app many times it still keeps kicking me out the app so fix this problem pls I really want to play ### 1/5 — Crashes on open *2026-05-17, version 3.3.0* Until it stops it’s a 1-star for me ### 1/5 — terrible *2026-05-17, version 3.3.0* the app keeps on crashing ### 1/5 — Broken *2026-05-16, version 3.3.0* I can’t even open the app one time I did and I loaded up super Mario land 2 and I was still on the loading screen don’t get this plz ### 1/5 — Terrible UI and UX *2026-05-15, version 3.3.0* This UI leans too heavily on neon lights and flashy retro but it lacks the responsiveness to tell me you’re importing or uploading my game. I spent ten minutes trying to import a game only to tell me I didn’t have the bios files for the emulator. Waste of time. ### 1/5 — 99$ lifetime? *2026-05-12, version 3.3.0* Outrageous! ### 1/5 — Won’t open at all, just crashes within a second *2026-05-10, version 3.3.0* Used to use this app often on my old M1 iPad Air but now I’ve got a new M5 IPad Pro it won’t open, it crashes within a second of opening, I can see a loading bar loves a little bit, and there’s some sort of Apple branded pop-up and then it flashes closed. Please fix! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So good *2026-08-06, version 3.3.0* Amazing 5 stars, it’s just great for gaming you do need JIT for game cube however (obv) but great for 3ds and below!
