Personally, I find that since we view things from a slight angle, I tend to align myself with my character and not the screen, which can mess with moving around a little. I do wish the game would explain a little more, but overall, it's cute, fun, and isn't stingy with its currency. ### 4/5 — No title *2016-10-08, version 1.6* DAT ! ### 4/5 — Good *2016-08-22, version 1.1.0* The game is fun but the controls do mess up from time to time ### 4/5 — Yea it's fun 😐 *2016-08-19, version 1.0.8* Yea it's fun 😐 ### 4/5 — Love ninjas *2016-08-14, version 1.0.8* Fun game to play ### 5/5 — Cool *2016-08-14, version 1.0.8* This is a good game (phonecats is the best) ### 5/5 — Is good *2016-08-12, version 1.0.6* Is ver good ### 5/5 — Good game *2016-08-12, version 1.0.8* 👍 ### 4/5 — Ninja *2016-08-12, version 1.0.8* Good ### 5/5 — It's crossy road *2016-08-11, version 1.0.6* Basically crossy road with more mechanics ### 5/5 — Great game! *2016-08-11, version 1.0.6* Found this game through 9gag. Very pleased it's a fun and unique game that doesn't get old. Hats off to all the creators hope the time and effort will pay off :) ### 5/5 — Amazing. *2016-08-10, version 1.0.6* From one 9gagger to the next, this is great. It's amazing to see what the 9gag community can do. ### 4/5 — Fun game *2016-08-10, version 1.0.6* Simple game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — You get a downvote *2016-08-10, version 1.0.6* Looks alright at first, but once it loses its novelty, gets boring. Game makes background music quieter even when ingame music is turned off and is buggy when watching ads and crashes frequently. ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2016-08-10, version 1.0.6* Controls are just horrible ### 1/5 — Boring *2016-08-09* I've played this game for a few days and it just isn't cool. There's nothing new about it. I'm gonna delete it now. ### 3/5 — Great game, just one problem *2021-05-09, version 1.8* Like I said, it’s a great game and all those reason are in other reviews, I just made this review to say that quite a few times, I’m not in the sight of an enemy but I still get captured. At first it’s ok but when you get really far it’s really annoying. That’s the only reason it’s not a 5 star ### 3/5 — Bad Controls *2016-08-13, version 1.0.8* The game has a good concept and great animation however the controls for swiping left and right make it difficult to control #ragequit ### 3/5 — Great game! But... *2016-08-08, version 1.0.2* I love what this game could be but it controls horrible ### 3/5 — Meh *2016-08-05, version 1.0.2* There should be more control for the dash/teleport thingy so until it's fixed it's pretty bad. Buts it's a good time waster ### 4/5 — Very engaging and fun *2017-11-01* Controls could use some fine tuning though not sure how. It appears they have offered many options, yet there is still the possibility of slipping. The concept is cute and challenging and there are many ways to attack or avoid challenges. Diverse enemies and rewards make it fun. Only had it a few days so we'll see if the interest lasts. It seems that upgrades and daily challenges are limited so perhaps that would be an area for improvement. ### 4/5 — Awesome but I think at has room for improvement *2016-12-30, version 1.7* I love this game sooo much because I love ninjas but what I think could improve it is if throwing stars were incorporated in some aspect of the game and a first person camera option to make it a little more realistic. ### 4/5 — Good game *2016-12-02* Kind of addictive but interesting also ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2020-10-27* If you don’t get it I don’t know what to say ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2018-12-13* This game is a very awesome and fun game. I recommend you download and play NOW ! ### 5/5 — Best stealth retro game ever *2018-03-26, version 1.8* This game is like an stealth arcade game and I love those things.keep up with the good work 8sec ### 5/5 — Thank you *2017-12-02, version 1.8* I don’t usually do reviews but this game is great the only flaw is when you hold and run it doesn’t really go in the direction of where you want to go but yes that’s the only flaw overall it’s a great time passer I would definitely recommend this to my friends I thank you for a wonderful game/app and by the way keep up the good work 8SEC ### 5/5 — Cool game about ninjas 😊 *2017-08-17* Good job guys keep this game going ### 5/5 — Great *2017-01-22, version 1.7* Great app ### 5/5 — Rogue Ninja *2016-09-20, version 1.2.3* Pretty fun ### 5/5 — A potato writing a review *2016-08-19, version 1.0.2* I know about this game from 9gag and it's really cool but too easy and repetitive but it has a lot of potential and even if it's this way i love it it's addictive and the music brings back memories idk why tho good job !! ### 5/5 — 9gag *2016-08-18, version 1.0.8* 9gag assemble ### 5/5 — PHONECATS *2016-08-15, version 1.0.8* Really cool of u guys to feature PCATS. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
