User reviews

I have always loved this game (minor bugs though)

The gameplay is really good but that's easy to see just by playing the game, I want to talk about how well this game treats the player. No ads, every skin is earnable though enough playtime, and the only characters locked behind a paywall are an optional whopping .99 cents. They're also very overpowered, so it's reasonable that they would cost money. There are still several pretty powerful characters that can be bought with in-game currency! I respect and love any game that chooses the player by not being stuffed with ads and subscription model paywalls. One-time purchase powerful characters ALL the way. As for minor bugs, they're mostly visual - electric orbs moving behind shrubs instead of in front of them, beetles not appearing on bushes even though they are there because of beetle spread, and the piranha music not ending even after the piranha sequence has ended.

Fun, challenging, and.. probably not safe in a 7 year old's hands

I don't have much to say on this, but I grew up playing this game. It's really fun, but also really challenging! Every time I get to the spike balls my adrenaline spikes (pun not intended) and it felt super rewarding to finally get past them. Though, I will say, I'm not sure if the developer will ever return. The last update was 5 years ago.

Also, since then, the game doesn't work properly for me and I can't play it. I don't know if this is just my device or data, but it's something to look out for. If it's happened to you, you might need to wait until they fix it or redownload the game.
