### 3/5 — Big issue

*2023-09-02*

Every time I try to download data it says I need to connect the Internet even though I have Internet could you give this game another update to fix this issue

### 4/5 — Too much gigabits

*2022-08-23, version 2.1.2*

I love this game but it takes up to much of your storage.
I like the game but it’s to much gigabits 
Other then that good game!

### 4/5 — Too much payment

*2022-06-07, version 2.1.2*

It’s a really good game but it makes you pay way too much I want to get Percy money James money like yo come on kids but over all this is a good game but to much payment 💰🤑

### 4/5 — Sound doesn’t work but otherwise good app

*2022-04-14, version 2.1.2*

I’ve tried the settings area and all of the suggestions for an iPad but none of them work. This app would be amazing if I sound get the sounds on. 
Great for early intervention and ASD students as a learning tool. Would love to see more countries added in the future.

### 3/5 — Pretty great game

*2021-12-30, version 2.1.2*

I like this game by a three star

### 3/5 — Fine for the most part

*2020-09-01, version 2.0*

It’s pretty good except you need money to buy sets, trains and etc, are you serious. At least you have 3 engines for free unlike the go go Thomas and magic tracks games, btw, in your next update can you add Duck, Donald, Douglas, Mavis, Daisy, Diesel 10, Bill, Ben, Boco, and Lady and Molly and make all the engines and  sets free please and please put Gordon on sodor with diesel, Rosie, and cranky. please, Please, PLEASE. I am a big classic Thomas fan so can you do that on your next update. Also can you add a section where you can build your own railway and can come back to it in ur next update please.

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2020-08-24, version 2.0*

The app is crashing and my son can't play. Please fix it

### 2/5 — It’s weird

*2020-04-05, version 1.4*

There are lots of reasons why this game is weird. The lips don’t match what the character is saying. The engines are slow. When you are in a race, you only go as fast as you tap after you use a boost. And nothing makes sense!

### 3/5 — Needs to be Free

*2020-02-17, version 1.4*

My son wants to move around the world but things aren’t free and he cannot enjoy the game unless I pay money.

### 5/5 — Totally not user friendly

*2020-02-17, version 1.4*

I’m 35 years old and I can’t figure out how to play this. My 3 year old Thomas fan gets so frustrated playing this game when he should be having fun.

### 5/5 — I like Thomas on all the I likeThomas and friends and I love the app

*2020-02-04, version 1.4*

So fun S it It’s so

### 5/5 — Awesome Game filled with Bugs

*2020-02-02, version 1.4*

Twice now my sons has accomplished a goal to get a suitcase.  Upon getting the suitcase nothing happens, he then has the force close the app and when he opens it back up everything is already unlocked in that area.  Then all the mini games won’t close because you already ‘earned’ all the suitcases and that seems to be the trigger to move on.  That is 2 out of 4 areas we started working on it’s happened to.  Hopefully it doesn’t continue.  Kills all the fun of the game.

### 5/5 — Thomas and a big world adventures

*2020-01-05, version 1.4*

It’s
 fun

### 1/5 — I kind  of like this game.......

*2019-06-22, version 1.2*

I rarely play this game  because why do you have to pay for the other countries? I really want India. But I can’t pay for it.:( that’s why I rate this app four stars.

### 1/5 — Greedy....

*2019-03-21, version 1.1.2*

$15 to unlock everything? Come on Mattel. That’s just greedy. If you even made it half that price I would totally consider it. I have every single Thomas app (free versions) and all of them are like this as far as the price range, some much higher too. Greedy greedy greedy.
