### 5/5 — A must have

*2026-07-26, version 2.0.20*

I just have about 50 playthroughs in this game and I’m still finding myself coming back to it once in awhile. No ads, no connection needed (great commute company), fun characters, lots of builds to experiment with, great music… I could go on. Try it, I almost guarantee you won’t regret it.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-07-20, version 2.0.20*

Really nice

### 4/5 — Love this series

*2026-07-14, version 2.0.20*

I’ve gone back to the original flash games countless times throughout my life. I never finished this version because it was so hard but I keep trying because I love this world. My biggest complaint is the game asking you if you want to watch an ad after every battle. At least it doesn’t force you to but I payed for this app already.

### 4/5 — Nostalgic

*2026-06-28, version 2.0.20*

Great game from the Armor Games day

### 5/5 — Reminds me of the old days 🥹

*2026-06-26, version 2.0.20*

Lots of good like two previous sonnys, few issues include inability to turn off music, and frost class being too overpowered.
Also speed just wins, the slower hitting classes dont get a proportional increase in power to ever compete.

### 5/5 — Sonny

*2026-05-13, version 2.0.20*

Very fun similar to AG version in gameplay but different in a fun way.

### 3/5 — Fine game, disappointing remake

*2026-05-10, version 2.0.20*

The game itself is fine to new fans. It’s basic, but fun if you ignore the heavy RNG with certain playstyles.

But as a remake of a fantastic flash game which by the way still absolutely holds up to this day, the only good thing I have to say about Sonny (2017) is the music. The sprites are nice, but it can’t be ignored that characters dont have a single combat animation and do not change their appearance with equipment, both of which were features in the flash games. FLASH games. This is an outright downgrade, and it frustrates me! A lot!

### 5/5 — Amazing even years later

*2026-03-27, version 2.0.20*

Played this so many years ago as a flash game; love it.

### 1/5 — Worst Sonny Game to Exist

*2026-03-16, version 2.0.20*

The title says everything. The skills are boring, you unlock new skill trees but no place to put them, evolve idea is so bad you barely use it, the “train” area where you’re supposed to get gear and exp is sometimes harder than the main event (i assume to make you watch an ad) the shop is ok at best a lot of the skills are the same just different element which makes for a boring experience.. again worst Sonny game to ever do it. Go play Sonny 1 and Sonny 2, either on armor games or steam.

### 5/5 — solid

*2026-02-21, version 2.0.20*

free and addictive turn based rpg and there are no iap’s
