### 1/5 — Save your money

*2025-08-22, version 1.0*

Paid $2.99 and deleted within 3 minutes.

### 1/5 — Read the reviews

*2024-09-02*

Controls are terrible. Can’t bend your shots.  The reviews will tell you… not worth your time or money.

### 1/5 — Horrible!

*2024-08-09*

Don’t bother to buy. It’s so lame like a child writing this app!!

### 1/5 — River raid

*2024-06-22*

I was so excited to relive my childhood memories by playing the game again. I purchased and installed it, but I quickly realized that while the graphics are the same as the original, the controller is terrible. 

You have to use an on-screen controller(arrows), which doesn’t work well and makes it hard to move the airplane. It would be better if I could control the airplane by moving the phone.

### 1/5 — Fake game

*2024-02-02*

Just stealing my money

### 3/5 — Controller Support!!!

*2024-01-17*

CONTROLLER SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!

### 3/5 — River raid

*2023-11-26*

Please add controller support for River raid

### 2/5 — Terrible navigation arrows

*2023-11-21*

Good memory of the good old time. But the navigation arrows are so terribly placed that you have to constantly watch where your fingers are when moving left and right

### 1/5 — Not a good game

*2023-10-11*

I played the old Atari game as a kid, but this is bad. Definitely not worth $1.99.

### 1/5 — Nothing but glitches

*2022-12-07, version 1.0*

I wish I had read the reviews first. Keep crashing, control does not work randomly. Waste of $3
