### 2/5 — Controles Ruins

*2025-07-30*

A ideia de trazer TigkerHeli para os Smartphones é louvável, porém com comandos ruins, que travam, imprecisos, E botões que fazem aquilo q não foram programados para fazer, acaba tornando a experiencia ruim. Se esses
Problemas fossem resolvidos seria com certeza um excelente jogo.

### 1/5 — Movimentação do helicóptero

*2023-11-01*

Nada preciso, como muitos comentam aqui a jogabilidade é horrível… comprei, tentei usar 5 minutos e já estou desinstalando!!!

### 4/5 — Favorite NES game as a kid

*2022-11-20*

This was my favorite NES game growing up, and I have been looking for a mobile version for a long while. I am very happy to say that it is very close to the original. My only criticism is that I cannot get any sound and I can’t find any settings. I would love to know if there is a fix for that.

### 5/5 — Movimento do helicóptero

*2022-06-07*

Como faço pra ele se movimentar para os lados?

### 1/5 — Matheus

*2022-01-09*

As bombas são muito rápidas e o helicóptero é muito lento precisa melhorar isso

### 3/5 — My childhood

*2021-11-03*

I loved this game when I was a kid. I couldn’t play it a lot as it was inside of the arcade in town and costed money but even watching it was joyful. This version looks exactly the same but it has one significant downside, no sensitivity settings which makes it hard to control the helicopter. Whoever made it possible for iOS, man it would be nice if you made such option or just increase default sensitivity please. Take care.

### 5/5 — Retro arcade

### 5/5 — Jugazo - Adictivo

*2020-04-10, version 0.5*
