### 5/5 — Quite literally my favorite game right now

*2024-11-30*

HOW does this game have 75 reviews and a 3.5???? it’s one of the most polished rougelikes for mobile i’ve seen and it’s done really well. my one complaint really, it’s HARD. like really hard. I hope the devs don’t feel bad seeing the reviews this game is really good!!!

### 2/5 — I wanna rate it higher

*2024-08-31*

I love the game so much, but every single time I get far into the game it resets itself. This probably wouldn’t bother me much but the latest time I had like half a years worth of progress.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2024-08-30*

Amazing game thanks yacht club

### 2/5 — Fr?

*2024-08-29*

This game is super fun, just want to say that. But I have lost all of my save data TWICE.
The first time I was obviously discouraged, but I liked the game too much I said whatever I’ll just get it back, I got all the characters again, beat the game with a bunch of the characters, and unlocked the classic colors for shovel knight. I was trying to unlock the classic colors for treasure knight, I died, and I closed the game because I was like whatever I’ll play later,  I log back in, the screen was pitch black with a little loading thing, it took a long time, so I just closed the game. Loaded back in, all my stuff was gone. Again.

### 2/5 — This game isn’t free

*2024-08-06*

So the game looks good but I don’t have a Netflix account and I’m not going to pay 15$ a month. So for any kids reading this ,unless your parents are paying for Netflix don’t get

### 1/5 — Make it free

*2024-04-24*

Just make it free cuz your just saying it is free but then you say “you need to spend 15 dollars to have this game for a month.” Either make it free or have a single price instead of a lying GET button

### 5/5 — Fun little game

*2024-04-22*

I’m not sure what those other moronic ‘reviews’ are talking about needing Netflix, it’s a Netflix version, of course it does…
Regardless, It’s a fun little game and portrait mode is always a plus for me as I think more games should be designed around it.

### 3/5 — Love it but

*2024-04-08*

Normally I would give this gave 5 stars, I loved it while I could, but suddenly after a while of playing it just began to freeze on me and stopping me from playing completely, this even happened about 5 or 6 months ago perhaps

### 1/5 — Pointless?

*2024-04-04*

The game has no direction. Mindlessly moving around attacking stuff? It doesn’t feel quite like a game or like you’re doing anything. Just shovel knight art and noises blasting at you.

### 2/5 — Game is great, but broken

*2024-03-18*

I really enjoyed playing but as of a week ago it refuses to load, I constantly get an error message on the loading screen
