I know that there has to be some sort of income stream for the makers but in my opinion, they’ve ruined the game by breaking the flow with ads. It makes me want to exit the game and never come back. ### 2/5 — Stick hero review *2025-07-17, version 2.4* just think that i love the game but i dont like the adds ### 3/5 — Too many ads *2025-06-01, version 2.4* Love the game, hate the adds ### 1/5 — my gosh…my gosh…my gosh… *2025-05-18, version 2.4* too many ads makes me want to kill myself ### 1/5 — more ads than gameplay *2025-05-17, version 2.4* definitely not fun enough to sit through the unskippable video ads after every death ### 1/5 — Reklam *2025-04-20, version 2.4* Oyun diye indirdim reklam izleme uygulaması çıktı bu da ### 1/5 — Too hard. Too many ads *2025-03-30, version 2.4* Too hard and too many ads. Games aren’t very fun when you can’t get past a score of 7 ### 1/5 — So many adds *2025-03-22, version 2.4* I can be in a game and 4 adds will pop up and makes me lose. On top of that, it lags all the time. You can sit there and hold down on your screen and nothing will come out but as soon as you stop and like tap your screen it’s a small amount and makes me lose. ICL TS PMO ### 1/5 — Previously fun *2025-01-09, version 2.4* The game used to be a perfect time killer. The occasional ad is more than fine and understandable but a few updates ago they hit us with an ad at start up, an ad when you die and a constant ad the bottom of the screen. The constant ad at the bottom is the biggest nuisance as it’s where I hold my finger during gameplay and it often causes me to die, which is frustrating anyway but they throw another ad at you to sprinkle salt in the wound. Capitalism destroys another good game. ### 1/5 — Tele reklámokkal *2024-12-26, version 2.4* Anno meg tudta oldani az ember hogy kikapcsolta a mobilnetet es nem volt tele reklámokkal de most olyan mintha azokat is letöltöttem volna a játékkal. Baromi idegesitő es hangulat romboló. És es sok másra is igaz ha az a cél hogy idegbeteg legyen az ember vagy hogy ne töltsék le es ne játszanak jo irányba haladunk. ### 2/5 — Ads. *2024-12-25, version 2.4* The gameplay is fine, and it would be a good time killer. But, the game has far too many ads. When you open it your immediately hit with an ad, you die once get an ad, after that you die twice and you get an ad. This process repeats every time you open the app, and it just gets annoying after awhile. If you feel like forking over cash to play this without ads go ahead, but just by itself it’s not worth that much waiting. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Updates made game slow *2026-08-29, version 2.8* Thanks to your updates the game is now lagging on iOS 26.3 it seems you're violating the age old rule of "if it ain't broke don't fix it" Really good job guys, now I really am going to have to disable app-updates system wide and only manually update apps where absolutely needed, what a shame you have proven me that I need to do this due to deep deep ensh*ttification affecting everything these days. ### 1/5 — ad simulator *2026-07-28, version 2.7* literally an ad after every single game and during them ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-06-30, version 2.7* I’m getting ads in the middle of a run.
