### 5/5 — GREAT BUT

*2026-02-07, version 1.0*

This game is great but I really want to play this on Mac so that all I need but other then that 5 stars

### 1/5 — HORRIBLE

*2026-01-04, version 1.0*

This game is full of ads every 3 tries and the game has the worst physics ever that I’ve seen;This game is ha worst, not recommended if you don’t wanna break your phone

### 5/5 — Very enjoyable game!

*2026-01-04, version 1.0*

After my iPhone 6 somehow survived being crushed in a vice with multiple cracks running through the screen, I decided go 9 years back in time to test some apps on it. 

This is one of the best apps I downloaded. Excellent level design, simple controls (only 3 buttons!), and there are a good amount of ads.

Also most of the time, the ads are high quality because they have to pay more to good games like these, but you can probably bug through the ad and skip it (at least on iOS 12).

It runs well most of the time, however, it does have occasional lag spikes making me jump too high and killing myself (in the game ofc). This isn’t really a problem because it only happens at the start. Excellent game overall!

### 5/5 — The best sodammit hard game ever
