### 1/5 — ITS NOT THE ORIGINAL

*2026-06-06*

ITS NOT THE ORIGINAL

### 3/5 — So nostalgic but with some annoying flaws!

*2024-01-15*

My family has the old Circus Charlie arcade game in our home, so I consider myself kind of an expert on the levels lol. I can’t believe someone created a game like this. It was very fun to play and so nostalgic, but also quite frustrating because a lot of the levels are just a bit “off.”

In the ball level, level three, you must be closer to each ball than you think and closer than in the real game. Also, the balls are not as forgiving as the real game. You shouldn’t be falling off that easy. It should be kind of sticky. In level four, the horsey (my favorite!!) why get rid of the back and forward buttons? The whole point of that one is to be able to slow way down before a jump. Also, in level five, the forward and back buttons are removed and it doesn’t make sense, adding to the frustration. I couldn’t finish the last level, at that point I just gave up. 

I also paid to be ad free and still got ads :/

Still, thank you for making the game!

### 3/5 — Needs control improvement

*2021-11-21*

The game looks just as good as the original arcade version but there needs to be an improvement on the controls. Examples are from the horse and bouncing mini-games where you don't have an option to move forward or backwards, you are only able to jump and thats it.

### 5/5 — Childhood memories

*2023-07-26*

The one and only reason to play it was the childhood game that I was always playing with my siblings so sentimental and still challenging
