### 3/5 — Love it but glitchy

*2023-08-30, version 1.31*

I used to play this game on a PC when I was in high school (or college maybe?). Nowadays, as far as game play and how the app works for the game itself—no real complaints. But my issue is that the music and sound effects disappear, and I do not mean how the music stops when you get fast enough (that feature is funny to me and I like the sound effects without the music); what I mean is if I’m listening to something else on my phone, say a podcast, and then I open Solipskier, sometimes all game sounds get eliminated (sometimes I can get it to make sound but then if I mute the sounds in the game, I can’t get them to unmute, not even when I quit the app and open it again, and not even when I turn my phone off and restart). I’m not a techy person so I’m sure I’m not explaining it correctly, but it is decidedly a glitch and different from the skier’s headphones getting blown off.

### 3/5 — The music

*2022-02-10, version 1.31*

The music is gone. That was a great part of the game. Maybe there is something wrong with app?

### 4/5 — STILL GREAT

*2022-01-21, version 1.31*

Still one of my favorites games ever since it first released on iPhone. Imagine if the developer updated this!

### 4/5 — Love this game, where are high scores?

*2019-12-15*

Used to play this on kongregate a long time ago. Just downloaded and noticed high scores are not working, is there any reason? Thanks!

### 4/5 — LOHNT ZU SPIELEN!

*2018-11-18*

Gutes Game Play+ individueller Grafik das nicht all zu bunt wirkt

### 2/5 — It’s awesome online, but bad on the app.

*2018-10-27, version 1.31*

I love this game on the website. Then, I got the app. I was VERY disappointed when I started playing the game. First of all, there was no pause button, which is on the website. Secondly, sometimes I go through gates and it doesn’t do anything. And the the thing I hate the most, sometimes it just randomly stops painting snow, when my finger is still on the screen. It also has pretty bad graphics, which I don’t really mind that much. PLEASE FIX.

### 4/5 — Um.... wat

*2018-04-21, version 1.31*

This is a really good game. I think it should have been free, though. If I die and have to restart, it won't let me click the restart button. In fact, it won't even let me click any button! Above that stuff, I think it's a pretty good game.

### 2/5 — Graphics need updating

*2018-03-09, version 1.31*

The game is as fun as ever but it still has the resolution of the iPhone 3G

### 3/5 — Kind of a major problem m

*2018-01-27, version 1.31*

Restart button doesn't actually work, so I have to quit the game to start another round. Otherwise the game plays fine.

### 5/5 — Great, but update

*2017-10-04, version 1.31*

Update it

### 2/5 — Fix the game

*2017-05-11, version 1.31*

Paying for this app is just plain awful. It has a poor response to touch, which is essential to keep playing. Please fix this problem

### 5/5 — Still Good

*2017-01-19, version 1.31*

Too many cheapskates out there complain about the price. I bought this game in 2010. I still play it. And still love it. 

Support developers and buy something.

### 5/5 — ios > pc

*2016-11-18, version 1.31*

1) easier to play
2) practice new techniques anytime
3) i can make solipskier lose his headphones in 28 seconds
4) no high score board or twitter
5) current goal: 150 million points

### 5/5 — Skispaß

*2016-11-06*

Rase mit Skiern durch die Welt und komme so weit wie möglich.

### 3/5 — I love the game but the last update sucked

*2016-07-18, version 1.31*

I used to play this game a lot but since the update it's hard to because of how far it starts from your finger. Also I can't click anything on the screen that comes up after you play a game so I have to kill the app and open it back up. Another thing is the resolution just looks really crappy and it kinda makes it not as, I guess you could say, exciting, as it used to be

### 3/5 — FUN GAME. NEEDS FIXING

*2016-05-13, version 1.31*

very fun, addictive, and simple. But when I die, none of the buttons work and I can't restart. Fix this please.

### 1/5 — Super lame developers!

*2019-10-18, version 1.31*

It saddens my heart that they stopped updating/developing this game. It still is one of my all time favourite phone games. With the newer phones, sizes and technology, this game could have just kept getting better but no, they stopped. Too bad. It’s useless now. Proof it was just a cash grab. So sad!

### 1/5 — It isn’t working at all

*2019-05-17, version 1.31*

Open the app and there’s a frozen grey screen. I paid 99p and now I’m depressed

### 1/5 — Dommage

*2019-01-17*

Au top ! Malheureusement pas de MAJ depuis des années !

### 1/5 — Kein neuer Start möglich.

*2016-07-11*

Nachdem man verloren hat, lässt sich der Restart Button nicht drücken. Man muss die App vollständig beenden. Bei Behebung mehr Sterne.

### 1/5 — Bug / Lag

*2016-04-07, version 1.31*

Don't buy this game , the restart button doesn't work .

### 1/5 — Update broke game

*2016-01-04, version 1.31*

The aspect ratio may have been fixed on the iPhone 6, but now it's broken on the 5. The cursor is not in the right location relative to my finger, and the resolution is lower than normal.

### 1/5 — Lazy Lazy Lazy!!!!

*2015-10-29, version 1.31*

These dudes need to do better testing before releasing an update. I don't know if this version runs properly on any devices, but on my 5s it has many issues.

I'm pleased to say that it displays across my whole screen, but the image is very low res (not 8-bit, just ugly) and it is clearly just stretched to fit, not reformatted and scaled appropriately. When playing, the cursor tracks your finger about 1.5 cm to the left of actual finger placement, which makes the game quite a chore to play. To make matters even worse, you cannot use any buttons on the game over screen.

Lazy work on the update. Make it right. I paid for this! 😡

### 1/5 — What happened??

*2015-10-03, version 1.31*

Playing on an ipad 2, game wouldnt start for months, now it starts and its the stretched out phone version??? Looks ugly amd blocky... What the hell happened and what is going on with you guys?? This WAS the best game on the app store, now its broken. DO NOT BUY. This is gross, disgusting INCOMPETENCE. Theres no excuse for this. The laziness and dishonesty is just appaulling and DIRTY/SHADY BUSINESS. Shameful.

### 1/5 — Fix me

*2015-08-28, version 1.31*

Love this game, wish I could play it still. They released a patch not long ago that finally allowed you to start the game, at least until you die where it won't respond to touch.

### 1/5 — Still bugged

*2015-07-18, version 1.31*

There's still an aspect ratio bug on the 6+ even though it says it's been fixed.

*2022-11-14, version 1.31*

Still one of my favorites and still works without an update for 7 years! Hope this game continues to work for many years to come.

### 5/5 — So many memories

*2022-09-05, version 1.31*

For some reason this game popped into my head and I couldn’t remember the name. I searched “ski” in my purchased section and found it! This game was awesome 7 years ago! Please update for newer devices or make a Solipskier 2! I’m surprised there never was a sequel.

### 5/5 — Yay it works

*2021-01-11, version 1.31*

Cool little game, speedy and light.

### 5/5 — Yesss!

*2020-06-29*

Nach ca. 10 Jahren mal wieder gespielt. Immer noch geil!

Gerne nochmal anpassen an die neuste Hardware! 

Klassiker!

### 5/5 — still here in 2018

*2018-09-16, version 1.31*

I’ve had this game for almost 6 years now and i’m dreading the day that it stops working because it’s one of my favorites.

### 5/5 — Fixed

*2018-03-11, version 1.31*

Still an amazing game after they finally fixed it up for newer phones.
