Yesterday I asked my friend if she wanted to play do I downloaded it and now it’s REALLY laggy and glitchy. I wouldn’t suggest it now but it was one of the only things I played back then. It’s just not what it used to be. I think the developer should fix the lagging issues because otherwise it’s literally Impossible to do anything. We played PuppetPals2 yesterday but you have to buy everything in it. The second one is still better though for the most part. ### 3/5 — Good but there’s a glitch *2019-10-20* There’s a glitch it won’t let me cut my own characters out only photos and I’ve changed the settings to never but it’s still keeps happening won’t let me cut out non photo characters please fix this even tho this game is 7 years old ### 4/5 — They haven’t responded to my questions *2018-10-03, version 1.9.2* I love this app. I’m so disappointed that I can’t use it in the classroom. I’ve tried contacting Puppet Pals a number of times asking for info for how much a district or building wide license would cost and I haven’t received any response. Please respond. ### 2/5 — Great but *2018-05-06* I purchased the directors cut on the iPod but it only offers it on one device. It won't provide access on the iPad ### 3/5 — Did *2017-02-19* Bad P ### 3/5 — Maybe *2015-06-29* I don't know. It's a good app but it needs more characters. ### 2/5 — Fix Sound Plz *2013-12-04* Just got the game and it's great but there isn't any sound when I play the shows. Plz fix that or someone tell me how to fix it when that happens 5 stars ### 2/5 — OMG *2013-10-06, version 1.8.1* Before I deleted it, it was fine but now when I re -down loaded it, it gave me nothing. ### 1/5 — Gduyeydufuydueyegrurueycihwgdi *2013-10-05, version 1.8.1* Do not buy the characters cuz if you want all of the characters just buy the one thats 1.99. If you add up the cost of all the characters together it is more then 1.99. So DO NOT buy characters ### 1/5 — Why pay now? *2013-08-12* Ok so after I wiped my iPod I redownloaded everything and I was annoyed to find I had to pay for my own pics now seriously... Why? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not Impressed! *2023-10-21* I’m not happy that I was inadvertently charged $33 for this app when I clicked on it. No price was made transparent. How do I get my $$ refunded?!??! ### 1/5 — It won’t work *2023-03-26* It glitches the second you choose a character so I can’t play the game! ### 1/5 — Super buggy and laggy *2023-02-08, version 1.9.2* I downloaded it and it had a lot of loading problems, and the volume bar was glitching, this was my childhood game before it stopped working, I checked to make sure they are actually updating the app but it appears as no, it hasn’t been updated in 5 years polished played please do something about this! ### 1/5 — App won’t load *2022-11-10, version 1.9.2* Problem with the sound. Same glitch on multiple device tried. Sound starts going up and down spontaneously. App then freezes. Similar issues with all versions of this app. ### 1/5 — U have to pay to use your own photos *2020-06-23* If u want to make a short film or add a photo for your background you have to pay about like 1 dollar or so ### 1/5 — Waste *2020-01-21* You go in the game and you have four characters and the only way to get more is you have to buy them it’s bad ### 1/5 — $3 *2019-11-17* I’m quite annoyed with this game. I got it bcs we have it at school and it is so much fun, however when I download the FREE app I have to PAY $3 to to buy a stupid director’s pass. It is impossible to play without one. Just wanted to have a bit of fun. I got all excited over nothing.although it is a great game my parents are not prepared to pay $3. I also felt as if I got ripped of as I got the free one instead of the $3 and was required to pay to play the game. I thought there were going to be in app purchases, but I just think It’s just a scam. ### 1/5 — You have to get the director’s pass to have fun *2018-08-07, version 1.9.2* My friend has this app but little did I know, she has the director’s pass. I decide to download it and come to find out that I can’t have my own backgrounds and characters without getting the director’s pass! Maybe I will consider getting the app again if you don’t make everything cost money ! ### 1/5 — Puppet POWs *2018-07-03* Please make everything unlocked please I had this game it got deleted and then I got it again and everything was locked please unlock eveything ### 1/5 — Really?!? *2014-04-26, version 1.8.1* Don't make us pay 2 use are own puppets!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Puppet pals is not working *2023-05-21* This app is NoT WORKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love it! First, we've got cool custom puppets, which is a great addition to the game! Second, we've got so many characters and backdrops! May you please fix a lag in "Puppet Pals 2" I tap on the app, click the play button, bug it lags! Despite that, it is a fabulous game and I hope you make more games like this... ### 5/5 — Nice *2014-01-23, version 1.8.1* It is an awesome app! One thin I don't like about it though is that u have to pay 1.99 for the directors pass before u can use a picture u took as one of the characters =( it's good otherwise! =) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
