## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Needs improvement

*2020-07-18*

Should be a free game. It’s nearly impossible to play because the helicopter barely rises when you help down.

### 1/5 — The original was better

*2020-04-18*

I want my $1 back

### 1/5 — What a waste

*2019-09-09*

This should be the most simple game to ever be created. Incredibly slow ascent, should be an easy fix. Find a free version of this, it will probably be more accurate

### 2/5 — Almost.

*2024-02-10*

It doesn't react the same way as the original. The quality of the original game was dependent on the climb and descent rates. Decend seems ok. Climb is WAY off. It'd be 5 stars if you got this right.

### 2/5 — Copter change

*2023-07-15, version 1.2.2*

The copter rises far to slow. It’s really hard to get by certain bits as it’s impossible for the copter to rise fast enough to get there.

### 2/5 — Sensitivity issue

*2019-08-26*

Please change the sensitivity. It’s impossible to get up above the obstacle fast enough before the next obstacle appears. This used to be my favorite game on computer and it was a disappointment to play due to this fact. Thank you.

### 2/5 — Meh.

*2019-03-04*

Looks the same, but it’s not as sensitive as the original.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2019-02-09*

It needs to be more sensitive on how fast it goes up and down. Or at least let us change that. I use to play the classic version all the time on my computer. Close but no cigar.

### 3/5 — Not as sensitive as the original

*2019-02-16*

It needs to go up faster like the original once that it fixed I will give it 5 stars

### 3/5 — Looks great, plays ok. (Game physics need altering)

*2016-04-05, version 1.2.2*

Great looking replica of the original helicopter game; however, the chopper rises much slower than in the original game. Still very playable, but it takes away from the experience somewhat!

### 5/5 — Amazing Gameplay

*2016-12-31, version 1.2.2*

This game is just like the original with a bit of a twist, which is being able to change the colours of the walls. I haven't experienced any laggy gameplay either. AND the ads don't get in the way or pop up.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-10-21*

So glad I found this game. Easy to use. Fun to compete

### 5/5 — Classic

*2016-01-25*

I enjoy this game quite a lot. It's simple and yet very addicting
