### 5/5 — Very good game.

*2025-08-11, version 1.11.0*

It’s very good. I like how it not only doesn’t overload you with ads like other games, but simply doesn’t have any at all!

### 4/5 — Please update this game again!

*2025-08-07, version 1.11.0*

I think this game is really fun with some improvements needed and all I hope for in this life is this game to be updated again like new achievements, Boxtrolls, and levels. Out of all the things that would make this game better I really think an archabald snatcher boss fight would make this game amazing

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2025-08-02, version 1.11.0*

Played this as a kid always loved it

### 2/5 — Boxtrolls Slide N Sneak Good bad and ugly.

*2025-07-10, version 1.11.0*

Hello, I am a guy that has recently completed the game and I have to say it feels really lack luster, the controls are pretty bad, a decent amount of crashes and having in app purchases to force players to pay money to unlock extra Boxtrolls. This game never gets updated either, so there’s really no point to replay the game or even touch it again, I wish the game got updated more with more levels and Boxtrolls but I guess that isn’t happening seeing as it’s been 7 years and not a update in sight. The games graphics are really fateful to Boxtrolls tho, sadly most Boxtrolls reuse voices, which is kinda lazy and disappointing, not only that but some of the animations look really weird, and don’t fit at all. I love the game, but there’s so many issues and there’s been no updates to fix the issues at all.

### 3/5 — difficult after level 30

*2025-06-07, version 1.11.0*

I love me some boxtrolls but after level 30 it’s literally impossible to play, I’ve never done anything harder in my life. beware of level 32🫰

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-05-04, version 1.11.0*

This game is the best!! It perfectly matches the movie and is a perfect adaptation!

### 5/5 — Trolling box

*2025-04-30, version 1.11.0*

Amazing gameplay

### 5/5 — Я цю гру шукав 8 років

*2025-04-10, version 1.11.0*

Я шукав цю гру цілих 8 років! Це був справжній квест — згадував лише окремі моменти, але не міг знайти її за жодними описами чи підказками. Протягом цих років я звертався до друзів, шукав на форумах, намагався згадати хоча б назву, але нічого не допомагало. Кожен раз, коли здавалося, що я близький до мети, натрапляв на щось схоже, але не те. І ось, після стількох років пошуків, я нарешті знайшов її! Це був неймовірний момент радості і здивування, адже навіть думав, що вже не знайду. Гра справді залишила незабутні враження, і тепер я знову можу зануритися в ті чудові спогади!

### 5/5 — LOVEEE

*2025-04-07, version 1.11.0*

This game is SO amazing that’s all imma say

### 1/5 — In app purchase

*2025-01-26, version 1.11.0*

We purchase some extra cheese from the game store to unlock more characters . Got some reason all my sons progress has disappeared and all his characters that he previously unlocked are no longer available and we have to re purchase them . I need to talk yo someone cause this is unacceptable

### 1/5 — How do I earn cheese?!

*2024-08-09, version 1.11.0*

I can get anymore cheese meaning I can get any of the boxtrolls with cheese it says check back for updates but I don't think that's going to happen. It's a real shame I can't collect them all

### 1/5 — Disrupting my canon event

*2023-07-15, version 1.11.0*

Ever since I was a wee lad I admired the great voluptuous Archibald Snatcher. I myself share the pain of a cheese allergy, and watching him eat that cheese on the big screen filled my diaries to play as my hero in a mobile game. Not being able to embody the great Archibald Snatcher has disturbed my canon event and now my universe is collapsing into cheese. If only the great Archibald Snatcher took his rightful place in this game then my universe would have been spared.

### 1/5 — Ridiculously stupid

*2023-01-14, version 1.11.0*

I don’t know why someone would want to play this game??
Like it’s about “trolls” in a box who would not not like this game?
If you say “it’s so addictive” go touch some grass if not be childish forever,
I’ve played the first round and I HATED the game!
So if you the creator grow up.
Go get a life and stop playing this game or go and play something better!
Such as…
Roblox.
Even bowmasters is better thank this game!
Like it was popular when the movie first came out but now it’s a piece of dog ….

### 1/5 — Amazing game

*2022-11-27, version 1.11.0*

This game is so cool and fun and i love it and it deserves five stars

### 1/5 — Does not work with latest iOS update.

*2017-10-11*

This is still one of my sons favorite movies and games. I decided to update my phone and now the game no longer works. Considering this is an older game, I don’t think it is going to be available any time soon. I hope that is not the case, but if it is, the developers should just pull it out of the store. Here’s to hoping that an update for the app actually happens...

**Developer response:** It happened! iOS11 is now supported.

### 1/5 — Update

*2017-10-04, version 1.3.0*

The game doesn’t work. Do update, please

### 1/5 — Update the app

*2017-10-01, version 1.3.0*

Hello please update your app so that it can be used on ios11

### 1/5 — Unplayable on ipad2

*2016-03-29, version 1.3.0*

The screen is only 1/4th of the total with... I can see a loading and background screen but the rest is black.... To imagine.... Devide the screen in 4... I only see the top left corner... The rest is black... Please fix

### 1/5 — Disapointing

*2015-12-11, version 1.3.0*

My son was excited to play the game. After download the game only gives a quarter of the screen!!! Very disapointing.

### 5/5 — Please update!

*2026-04-07, version 1.11.0*

I love this game, I’ve been playing it since I was a little kid and would appreciate it if you added either more of Winnie’s acheesements or just give out a whole bunch of free cheese for those who don’t want to spend money or if you won’t add more acheesements, it would allow people to own all the box trolls. Thank you! Love this game and the movie.
