### 5/5 — NOSTALGIA!

*2020-07-30, version 2.5.1*

I was 6 years old when Repton 1 came out for The BBC Micro and this brings back so many memories. Great adaptation for the iPad. Thank you. If I could rate it higher than the 5 stars, I would!

### 5/5 — Thank you for updating this classic

*2019-12-18, version 2.5.1*

I am so delighted to discover Repton1 has recently been updated for 64 bit . I owned this on my bbc micro and it is as superb now as it was in 1984. 
A true classic, in the puzzle genre and worth every penny.

### 5/5 — Buy. This. Game!!!

*2015-06-02, version 2.3*

Whether you loved this game in its original incarnation or have never tried it before, Repton is seriously worth it. A fantastically engaging puzzle game with great expansion packs. Although it looks like the IAPs cost a fair amount, you get literally hundreds of hours of engrossing puzzle gameplay from the expansion packs.  Highly recommended.

### 1/5 — In app purchase required to jump level

*2015-02-28, version 2.1.1*

After spending a tenner on this I am disgusted to find that they are squeezing still more cash by charging to jump level. In the original you could jump level by entering the level name as a password. Would have given this 5 stars otherwise. The new graphic style is awful, thankfully there's a 'retro graphics' option.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2014-10-20, version 1.8*

This and iRepton3 are the most addictive puzzle game ever. I have these for Pc and started playing Repton on BBC Micro, then Acorn Archimedes. Now go out and buy them.

### 3/5 — Update needed ASAP

*2014-10-16, version 1.7*

Love this game from my childhood, was happy to pay the price for this and repton 3, only had it a few days and got quite far with all senarios, however now with both games since recent updates my progress doesn't save, and has sent me back to 0% there no point in playing if it doesn't save very disappointing ! Please sort out asap thanks

### 5/5 — Trip to my childhood

*2014-10-05, version 1.7*

I've wasted endless hours playing repton as a child and was so excited to see it available on the App Store. It didn't disappoint and not ashamed to say I've wasted hours playing it as an adult now too. Love the fact you can have the original retro graphics and there's plenty of scenarios to keep you busy. Would LOVE robbo too!!! (Hint hint)

### 4/5 — More screens please

*2014-09-22, version 1.6*

I love this game. But please introduce more scenarios/screens GET IT? MORE SCREENS?

### 1/5 — Eggs

*2014-09-19, version 1.6*

This was brilliant but in the new version the eggs smash on your head and kill you, meaning that you cannot complete The Vault in Glacier level. Please change it!

### 1/5 — Now have iOS 8 on iPad 2

*2014-09-18, version 1.6*

I had got quite a way through Avalanche but now it's put me back to 0%, not happy.
