### 1/5 — No Point

*2021-08-08*

Why can’t I create your own I would in a future update please put in the create your own feature for every device

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2014-03-10, version 1.3*

Waste of time and battery life.

### 1/5 — No sound at all in my iPad

*2011-11-10*

Bug ?

### 1/5 — Buggy app.

*2011-03-29*

Not even an ok app. Full of bugs. Tried to play a few games and I was not able to finish one. 

It's not the only problem. It's harder to control than the linux version I played (you need to tap the screen every time you need a change of direction so, sometimes, you need to tap very fast and often makevan accident). It does not work in portrait mode even if it should be better like that. 

This adaptation for iPad is one of the worse i've seen. Don't waste a dime on it until they worked a lot on it. I don't know who approuved this at Apple store, but I think he was still sleeping.

I want a refund! Probably won't have it...

Hopping my english is not too bad.

### 4/5 — Very, Very, Cute!

*2010-10-12*

Hey, folks, lighten up.  This game is, after all, rated ages 4+.  The artwork is cute, wooden train action is realistic enough, and it is kinda fun to watch (and play) even for this senior citizen.  I should think little ones of many ages would enjoy it.  I think the developer did a nice job and has a good app.  No, it's not "addicting" (as if that silly and overused attribute makes a good app).  It's just kinda fun.

### 4/5 — I like it

*2010-10-05*

My son really likes trains at the moment so through searching, came across this app.  I think you did a good job on this.  It's a nice concept.  I didn't see any of the negatives that others saw.  I hope you keep at it.

### 2/5 — Would not pay for this.

*2010-10-03, version 0*

First problem with this game is that it does not run in landscape mode and in a bit of a cheat it only uses half of the screen, the rest being taken up with blue sea! That makes the graphics of the track, train and arrows quite small and difficult to see. When a level is completed it seems you get an American centric question. 

Hello, there are a lot of iPad users in the rest of the world!

### 1/5 — Not worth free...

*2010-10-03*

Why design an app to install a different language than the one already set on the iPad?  Waste of time...

### 1/5 — Underwhelming...

*2010-10-02*

Upon startup was shown a long list of languages. Pressed English. Got something else. Couldn't get back to English. Wow. Tried to play anyway. Looked at the tiny, tiny, little microscopic train and decided it was not even worth that effort. Deleted app in record time.
