### 4/5 — 😃

*2026-08-09*

これが楽しくてやってる
広告もう少しなくなると嬉しい

### 4/5 — Fun but not very playtested

*2024-12-17, version 6.1.98*

I enjoy the game and concept but it seems like the developer stopped 90% of the way to finishing the game. Many daily goals like "get a score of 87 5 games in a row" never trigger even when it shows it has been done "(16)" times. Sometimes daily goals come by to "get 83 logs" and sometimes they come by as "get a score of 373 15 times in a row". Sometimes it's even "earn two levels" where that would be hundreds of plays.

All that aside, the base game is fun so I still give it a 4/5. I've reached nearly 3k in score, the trick is to use 2 thumbs on a  single side when you see a long run. That should prevent you from "running out of steam for quite a while", the rest is up to not making mistakes.

Paying to remove ads works well though there is still an extremely aggressive grind in late game if you want to earn all of the characters (the buying  system runs out and you're left waiting for one-a-week rewards or exponentially scaling idle coin fill ins).

### 4/5 — Export save data

*2024-12-09*

Have to start over on iPad

### 4/5 — Help

*2024-10-06, version 6.1.98*

I do not understand how to get the characters with the question mark on them. I also can’t find anything online on how to get them.

### 4/5 — PLEASEEE ADD THIS

*2024-07-05, version 6.1.97*

when you die and it gives you the option to watch a video and a 3 second countdown there should be an option to just go straight back too the menu because my attention span is too short too wait 3 seconds when i dont want to watch an ad and get my place back. i just want to go straight into a new game

### 4/5 — Simple but somewhat fun

*2024-06-30, version 6.1.97*

Just to break the monotony of people calling this game too hard, this game is too easy. I’ve played for around an hour and already gotten a high score of 11,111. I could’ve gone on infinitely but my elbow was starting to get sore so I stopped. For people wanting to beat my score, just use all five fingers at the same time rather than one. I don’t know how some of you have played the game as much as you have and not figured out such a simple glitch. Pretty sure the devs are inactive, so I doubt this will be patched. If anyone read this far, good luck beating me! 

P.S. the leaderboards only go up to 4500 for whatever reason so my top score isn’t displayed

### 4/5 — Good game

*2024-04-07, version 6.1.97*

This game is super fun and the characters are even funnier this game is very enjoyable and a fun it’s not to hard but not to easy. I saw many comments saying it’s to hard I can agree a 4 year old would struggle playing this game but the game is not to hard very fun.

### 2/5 — I can’t with these ads..

*2024-03-15, version 6.1.97*

Reinstalled the game after so long just to be bombarded with a unskippable ad every 2 times I die, seems a bit too much

### 5/5 — How is this possible

*2024-01-05, version 6.1.97*

I got 1264 has anyone else?

### 2/5 — One problem

*2023-12-17, version 6.1.97*

It has a time pls take it off

### 5/5 — Definitely one of the best apps I’ve had!!

*2023-11-09, version 6.1.96*

I’m a sucker for simple games that go fast. I have ADHD so something like this is perfect for me! It has so many characters. I don’t know if I’ve had a game with so many game characters! I’m very impressed. It’s November 9, right now so naturally I’m using the snow maiden.😌🎄🎅🏼 If you love simple, fast, games you can customize, this is for you. It’s a fun way to pass time also! If you’re on a roadtrip (as long as you’re not a driver of course😂) then it’s a fun way to pass time! Thank you for reading this. God loves you!

### 4/5 — Update?

*2023-09-14*

Hab inzwischen knapp 350k Gold gesammelt, so langsam brauche ich mehr Funktionen oder Sachen die ich kaufen kann..👍

### 1/5 — Good game, but what’s with the tracking?!

*2024-05-07, version 6.1.97*

This game is quite fun and simple, nothing much to say about it. It’s an arcade game: chop tree until you die, collect rewards, unlock stuff, repeat. I would’ve continued playing if it weren’t for one thing I noticed: WHY IS THIS GAME TRACKING MY LOCATION. There are NO features that require my location to be tracked AND linked directly to me. There are no justifiable reasons why a simple arcade game such as this one is tracking the location of their players. Feel free to download, but know the devs know where you sleep at night.

### 1/5 — Tirem esse acesso guiado

*2024-03-03*

O hoje era bem melhor sem esse acesso guiado já basta a quantidade de ads

### 1/5 — Bought No Ads and Still Have Ads

*2023-11-14, version 6.1.96*

I bought no ads and I still have ads days later and I have tried restoring purchases and I have tried deleting and reinstalling the app (lost all my progress) and I still have ads. DONT GET THIS GAME THE COMPANY IS SCAMMING PEOPLE!

### 1/5 — No ads not working

*2023-11-01, version 6.1.96*

I like this game so I bought no ads. But there are still a lot of ads. That’s either a bug or a scam. Will change to 5 stars if resolved.

### 1/5 — High Paywall / Too much Ads

*2023-10-25, version 6.1.96*

I bought the “No ads” and nothing happened. I still get tons of ads between games, those VERY LONG ads….with lots of “x” buttons that are extremely difficult to click therefore leading you to a new app or something alike.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2023-07-13, version 6.1.95*

Twice now I've met the criteria for achievements and nothing happens. I needed to score a certain number 3 times and I did it 4 times, which it showed, but I didn't get credit for it

### 1/5 — Bring back the IOS 10 version

*2023-06-17, version 6.1.95*

This game become worst than the older version

### 1/5 — Rewarded every time u get a good score with an AD 😃👍

*2023-04-08, version 6.1.93*

This game has wayyyyy too many ads especially if ur any good at the game cause every time I get over 200 I get an ad which is basically every time I play. They know u want the score u got added to ur currency so they always put an ad after a good run. If u don’t have bad reaction time good luck cause ur about to be bombarded with ads. (UPDATE: now deleted the game due to the same reason as stated above)

### 1/5 — Decent gameplay, racist character choices.

*2023-01-18, version 6.1.77*

Gameplay is extremely hard, props on that, but as soon as I unlocked the Native American character and had my tree changed to a totem pole and a forest fire I uninstalled lol…

### 1/5 — Jesus Christ from Nazareth is king

*2022-12-21, version 6.1.77*

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. John 3:17 

Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. John 3:18 

 anyone reading, repent, be baptized, believe with all your heart that’s Jesus is christ and that he died on the cross for all of our sins and all of the sins of the whole world, and that he was resurrected from the dead on the third day by the father, get right with God before it’s to late

*2024-03-25, version 6.1.97*

*2024-01-08, version 6.1.97*

This game is definitely one of my favs. At first I found it a little challenging but with some practice it’s really fun. (Great tip is to have both of your thumbs on either side to switch sides really fast)
Very cool
