### 4/5 — Very good game(s), although—

*2026-08-19, version 1.12*

I love all the games on this—especially my Dig Dug, it’s my jam! But the buttons are a little hard to use, and if you are too loose with your control over it, it could mess up. Not like the real arcade exactly—but it’s like the arcade game—if you know what I mean.

### 3/5 — Sorta good

*2026-08-15, version 1.12*

I like the games but it will not let me play haunted castle

### 5/5 — Arcade game

*2026-08-15, version 1.12*

This game is very fun and is very interesting. Would recommend to friends. I’d say it is a healthier choice for a game

### 5/5 — Yes!

*2026-08-15, version 1.12*

I have pac man for free

### 3/5 — good emulation

*2026-08-14, version 1.12*

Lacking some features but a good start , the space invaders for example should have the mirror background of the original not black, the CRT look on a Mac looks awful and blown out highlights, and many more games need to be added, its a good start, but Mame is still the better option at this point

### 5/5 — Old days

*2026-08-11, version 1.12*

I love pac. Man

### 5/5 — Accolades & Requests

*2026-08-11*

I’ve been thoroughly enjoying this creation from its first introduction. I truly appreciate the design and care the developers have put into the attention to detail and the maintenance. I don’t know if there’s a place to request any future titles, so I’ll place them here. ‘The Pit’ (1982 Zelic) and ‘Pulsar’ (1981 Sega) would be two incredible additions that can fit right in to the already great selection line-up. I’m certain players would enjoy those challenges as well for hours! Thank you so much for making me feel like a teen again when the urge to retro game emerges..Brilliant App in every way!!!

### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER

*2026-08-10, version 1.12*

I love this game

### 5/5 — Memories

*2026-08-05, version 1.12*

Awesome

### 3/5 — Galaga seems off

*2026-08-05, version 1.12*

When playing Galaga there seems to be a slight delay from when you press the fire button to when your ship actually fires
