In-depth Description: I will say as someone who’s been playing games for Satoshi across different platforms, this game isn’t the major money maker of the handful of legit games that pay on iOS, but the gameplay is fun and does pay you consistently when you achieve tips. The tips however other than possible bonuses like collecting all the letters in “SaruTobi” for instance which may or may not be linked to being awarded satoshi are the only ways I’ve found to actually get payouts. This is slightly tedious, due to each attempt being completely random and you never know what your going to hit after launch. So with all that said, and like I said “this isn’t the major money maker your looking. However, give it a try. SaruTobi is a great game to pass the time with added benefits. - S4UC3 ### 3/5 — Great concept, poorly implemented *2022-01-24, version 1.06* This game was much more fun before the last update. I don’t mind having to input a captcha, but i have only been able to get one gold coin in the last 2 days and having to verify I’m a human being every 3 seconds for a small tip is extremely frustrating. As in I would rather the game remove small tips completely and only let me cash out on big ones, or at LEAST a way to discard the small tip so I don’t have to do the captcha for 0.0003 cents repeatedly. Aside from that, the monkey physics are sloppy and my power ups disappeared from the bottom of the screen, so I’m forced to play without them. Perhaps fire your programmer and replace him with someone that can make the game more fluid, but otherwise the concept is a good idea. ### 3/5 — i wouldn’t get my hopes too high yet *2022-01-18, version 1.04* 1. pro: fun time killing game. good graphics. fun to play and entertaining. enticing for the btc. cool how fast the sats get transferred into your wallet. 2. con: there’s a cap on how many you can earn a day. from my calculations it would take around 918 years to get a whole bitcoin with that cap. 3. con: you don’t make money until you sell the btc, and there’s no where i could find to legitimately transfer the btc to an exchange and sell it (for the US at least). transferring to a wallet doesn’t let me sell it. i read online that the developer is working to get zebedee wallet sats to be accepted on more exchanges (it’s accepted on 3 rn i believe). until that happens, i’ll just be playing for fun, not for thinking i’ll make actual money. ### 5/5 — Game *2021-12-15, version 1.04* Fun game with cool btc rewards 🦍 ### 5/5 — Earn Bitcoin Playing Games?! I love it *2021-09-09, version 1.01* Such a fun way to earn bitcoin and sats back when gaming! Love how I can send it directly back to my ZEBEDEE wallet! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Needs improvements *2025-02-18, version 1.46* Wish you could get more than one coin at a time, but requesting tips sometimes locks up with no way to stop the request if it fails to connect and it doesn’t appear to have a time out period. Making you have shut down and restart each time. It been happening on both the WiFi and the cellular network, so I don’t believe it’s the connection causing this. ### 1/5 — I really wanted to like this *2024-08-12, version 1.45* When I came across this game and saw that I could earn sats that could be deposited in my ZBD account I downloaded it! I was so excited. But, unfortunately I keep getting a message saying it cannot verify my device. I can’t access the power ups I earned from spinning the wheel. I’m not sure how I can purchase power ups. I don’t know if I have to unlock something to be able to use the power ups I win. Super frustrated and super disappointed. Please fix! I would love to play again. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2023-07-25, version 1.43* Be prepared to sit through an ad every time you earn a coin. Totally not worth it. ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing on me when i get bananas *2023-04-28, version 1.40* This game keeps crashing on me when i get bananas and it takes bananas away from me. I complete the tasks and it doesn’t reward me.

I already registered and then my game tag that was not accepted. Then my coins disappeared. Disappointed ### 1/5 — Stupid *2021-10-22, version 1.02* Stupid game. You tap the screen and have NO control over where the monkey lands. ### 2/5 — Zebedee login fail *2022-09-11, version 1.33* The app fails to complete the login procedure via Zebedee app, a notification about successful login appears, but Zebedee account is not connected. ### 2/5 — It okay *2022-09-09, version 1.33* You can earn a little Bitcoin but be prepared to be frustrated most the time as you have to input a captcha every song time. Also the game is not very fluid. The physics of the monkey are sloppy and purchased upgrades will randomly be removed from your inventory. Do not save up and try buying all the upgrades to chain together. The game will take all the upgrades once you buy them all. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Monkey Swinging Bitcoin Game *2026-03-06, version 2.01* I’ve passively played this monkey flinging bitcoin game for years. Yes you win real satoshis. They are transferred to a separate app called ZBD which is a lightning network wallet. You win them by swinging a monkey off a vine and getting lucky with snagging silver or gold bitcoins out of thin air. When I first started back in 2023, you, silvers were 1 satoshis and golds were 3. If you snagged a satoshis coin then you had to cash out immediately to avoid the bitcoin coins disappearing from the game on subsequent rounds before you cashed out. It was tedious but ad free and you could win a jackpot randomly when cashing out of 1500 satoshis. I actually scored the jackpot once. Then things got kind of worse after some time away with excessive ads, smaller payouts for individual coins collected, and heavier throttles on satoshis you could cash out at once. You could collect as many coins as possible before cashing out and in a single round even (previously all coins disappeared as soon as one was picked up prior to a cash out), however ads were rampant and they would only let me cash out like 5 satoshis to my ZBD wallet a day despite racking up 50 every 30 mins of play. These days things are looking decent. The ads that pop up are minimal. You can pay to remove ads but that’s counterintuitive as hell so no thanks. You can still stack bitcoin endlessly and I have found the upper limit on daily cash out yet. I just collected 40 satoshis in 20 minutes and they all instantly transferred on the lightning network. A silver is 1 and a gold is 2. No jackpot but it’s easy to collect a bunch when you use your banana points to buy free power ups for each round. I just do the cheapo spring one for 60 bananas. It’s not as fun as a missile or bomb power up but that thing will keep you bouncing through and snagging bitcoin every round. Lately days are looking good for the monkey swinging bitcoin game. ### 5/5 — Monkey *2023-07-30, version 1.43* Like the game ### 5/5 — Fun *2023-04-04, version 1.39* It fun app to play and earn some bitcoin ### 5/5 — Great support *2022-08-20, version 1.33* Don’t expect to get rich, but it does everything it claims it does. Simple yet amusing game, little clunky on the controls. But definitely deserves a 5 star as when I had pay out issues the support staff in discord immediately fixed the issue and gave me more than the issue had cost me without giving me any hassles. So great support and a app that can grow. Hope to see it become amazing! ### 5/5 — Awesome way to stack sats *2022-03-10* Excellent game to get people more comfortable with using the lightning network. Highly recommend. ### 5/5 — I win jakpot 5000 sat today *2022-02-22, version 1.08* Thank 💕😘😘 ### 5/5 — BEST SAT SAVING GAME ON THE APP MARKET *2022-02-02, version 1.07* SaruTobi is BY FAR the BEST game on the App Store to save up SATOSHI’S just for playing a game that you would normally play anyways!! Thank you SaruTobi team. ### 5/5 — Amazing 🔥 *2022-01-18, version 1.05* The game is very simple to play and you may not earn much money, but it’s better than nothing, right? ### 5/5 — Fun to play *2022-01-18, version 1.05* Only good game mode is fly high. Make sure to write the right name or coins are gone easy to earn but you won’t make much unless coin price improves ### 5/5 — Gaming for crypto *2021-12-16, version 1.04* Swing a money and win some Satoshis - what’s stupid abt that ?! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
