### 5/5 — Played this one a lot in 2009 on my iPhone 2G.

*2022-01-06, version 1.35*

Fun game, the first iPhone game I ever remembered buying.  Just got to play it again for the first time in a decade after my first iPhone got stolen.

### 5/5 — I❤️ this game

*2021-02-15, version 1.35*

Needs more levels no ads and I ❤️💕 this but needs more levels

### 5/5 — UNDERATED GAME ALERT

*2020-11-21, version 1.35*

As an experienced player (since it came out on iPhone 3) I’ve adored this mini puzzle game of passing levels and eating cheese! And you will never get bored of the levels because there are so many! This is the perfect game for a phone especially as it doesn’t take space, and it is the perfect game to keep a child busy without worrying about them buying anything without your permission (as there are no in game purchases) It’s also the perfect game to keep your child occupied for quite a while! (I should know 🤣) and one of the best parts, you don’t have to play while connected to a wifi or data network! So the game is also great for people who like to travel a lot (even on aeroplanes) and the little rat never fails to make me laugh 😆 even now as I’m 14 years old ! 
✨FIVE STARS ✨

### 5/5 — This game is absolutely poggers

Dear Donut Games,
This is a great arcade game for hand-eye coordination.

### 5/5 — Nostalgic game

*2020-07-24, version 1.35*

I used to play this on my moms iPhone 4 when I was around 6 and loved it. Now that I’m 16 I finally found this game again and it’s just as fun! $1.99 well spent to relive my childhood

### 5/5 — PLEASE ADD MORE LEVELS

*2019-07-22, version 1.34*

I remember playing so much this game when I was 6 years old, but then I changed my phone and lost the game, but now I got it back and it’s only 0.99, it’s totally worth to getting this game
LOVE IT!!

### 5/5 — best game!!

*2018-11-17, version 1.34*

I have been playing this game for 10 years and it’s been a large part of my life. that sounds a little sad but it has never failed to entertain!

### 5/5 — My brain fell out - EDITED

*2018-10-11, version 1.34*

The best thing about it is you can delete it. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!

EDIT: I'm so sorry my salty 11 year old self posted this because she was bitter that she sucked at it. Rat on a scooter was basically my childhood, idk why I was being so edgy.

### 5/5 — Had it for years

### 1/5 — Rat on the Run

*2019-04-14, version 1.34*

Terrible game

### 1/5 — Stupid Game

*2018-04-13*

Just a stupid game in which either way you can’t clear the initial levels.

### 1/5 — Needs to be updated to work in the future

*2017-03-27, version 1.33.1*

Needs to be updated to 64bit iOS app or won't work in next major release of iOS, please do it asap and will remove this review and give you a good review instead.

### 1/5 — Rrrrrr

*2012-08-26, version 1.32*

Prefer the snowboard one soooo annoying y did I buy this!

### 1/5 — Bad. Really bad.

*2012-04-03, version 1.31*

Don't get it, not worth the dollar. I know it looks nice and awesome but there's no point of getting it. And the rat on a scooter minigame is hopeless on this. Get the full rat on a scooter it's waaayyyyy better than this copy. Give me my money back! I want a refund!!😡😠👿

### 1/5 — AURGH!! SOO FRUSTRAITING!!!

*2012-01-20, version 1.31*

I absolutely hated it, i deleted the game straight after playing it, it was too frustraiting [hope i spelt that correctly..] but this is just my opinion it, strategy games aren't really my thing.

### 1/5 — Don't buy

*2012-01-09*

Don't pay a dollar to buy this stupid app....!!

### 1/5 — Нудная

*2011-03-10*

Не впечатлила. Раньше играл в traffic rush. Понравилась больше чем эта. Тоже кстати donut games.

### 1/5 — Скукота

*2011-03-08*

И берут 1 доллар, хотя заявлена как бесплатная. Обман.

### 1/5 — free please

Even though it's free now it was definitly worth $0.99!!! My fav game!!!!

*** update: 15+ years later and I STILL remember this game. I appreciate Donut Games so much for being one of few devs that just sell the game and don’t add in-game purchases or ads. I will continue to play until I can no longer use my hands!

### 5/5 — greatest game ever made

### 5/5 — p

*2023-03-11, version 1.35*

this game is so nostalgic it brings back so many memories

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2023-01-29, version 1.35*

Just wow, what a game honestly, I remember playing this game when I was 9 now I’m 20. Time just flies but those was the best days, the days where we didn’t need to stress about anything other than losing to this game. The days where we was innocent kids, the days where we couldn’t wait to finish off school to play these games. Man wish I could just go back in time. This game really did make my childhood. Love donut games!

### 5/5 — Woohoo

*2022-08-07, version 1.35*

Nostalgia itself

### 5/5 — Arcade et précis à la fois

*2022-05-17*

Le jeu est très fun, et propose à la fois des niveaux avec un challenge plus ou moins simple, et demande énormément de précision pour avoir la note maximale si on veut refaire les niveaux. C’est particulièrement frustrant quand on échoue mais tout autant satisfaisant quand on réussit
