### 4/5 — Not really time locker

*2026-08-17, version 1.4.2*

Not really frozen in time the back starts to creep up with you to end the game. So not really frozen in time like is claims

### 4/5 — Very good a request though

*2026-03-15, version 1.4.2*

When you start you have to play a bit before it becomes fun. Add a base camp to the game.

### 4/5 — Haptic Feedback Needed!!!

*2025-06-23, version 1.4.1*

This is my new favorite game would be 11/10 if there was haptic feedback when shooting enemies!!

### 5/5 — Time trial bullet storm mayhem

*2025-06-16, version 1.4.1*

This game is just cool. I’m a world where everything is somehow rogue-like/lite etc. this one is actually wild and fun and chaotic.

### 4/5 — Jetpack Joyride, but make it Superhot

*2025-06-08, version 1.4.1*

Yes.

### 5/5 — THE BEST GAME EVER

*2025-05-13, version 1.4.1*

SO FUN, I COULD PLAY FOR HOURS WITHOUT GETTING BORED. it’s so cool bc everything stops when you do, and has anyone seen the thing that chases you if you’re going too slow? The bosses are so hard to beat, but my strategy is to go behind the boss and start attacking it. Super addicting too, also it starts chill but then after 1000 score BOOM!! It gets chaotic and difficult quick. I love this game.

### 5/5 — Why I loooove 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🖤🩶🤍🤎✝️☮️

*2025-04-13, version 1.4.0*

First things first,tell me why this game is so freaking satisfying and not only that but there’s rain noises and forest noises( now that is a real bonus)! I literally play nothing but the game and it’s like the game is my safe zone where i can be calm and just play. And lastly whoever created this game, shout out to them lol 😝!

### 4/5 — Addictive game

*2025-04-08, version 1.4.0*

Simple but Highly addictive game.  Quick response time.  Been looking for a game like this for a long time since Chameleon Run.

### 5/5 — good

*2025-03-11, version 1.4.0*

好玩

### 5/5 — «Машина времени» для Apple Arcade

*2025-03-07*

Time Locker Plus (2023) - это игра для сервиса Apple Arcade, разработанная японцем Сотаро Отсукой и изданная Apple и Otsuka Games. Как будто напоминает Crossy Road от HIPSTER WHALE. Такая маленькая по размеру 52 Мб, и ещё у неё нет Game Center (наверное), но у меня в Game Center показывает TIME LOCKER+. Короче, 5 звёзд. Так держать, Sotaro Otsuka!

### 5/5 — This is the best game

*2025-03-05, version 1.4.0*

This is the best game

### 4/5 — Ehh.

*2025-03-01, version 1.4.0*

Decent fun.
One huge problem.
You can only temporarily keep characters, and some you can permanently keep are paid.
Please make getting characters permanently possible by paying a large amount of the green coin things.
Maybe 10000 or something.

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2025-02-20, version 1.4.0*

It is so fun

### 5/5 — Fun to go fast!

*2025-02-13, version 1.4.0*

I love the game maybe at a spot where you can dress up otherwise….. amazing!

### 5/5 — I like  this game

*2025-02-11, version 1.4.0*

It is fun

### 5/5 — Very good

*2024-12-28, version 1.4.0*

It is fun and hard but not too hard good for people aged 9-INFINITY

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — The most common way to do that was by putting the whole piece together and making sure that game was

*2024-12-11*

Had the worst experience in a few weeks but now it’s all good and the pain goes down fast for the first so it’s not like it’s anything serious and I’m still recovering 
😀now I’m going through it again but I’m not even going anywhere else let alone a new one recommendation. 🙂‍↕️😏

### 1/5 — Shouldn’t even exist.

*2024-07-27, version 1.4.0*

This is what happens when you forget to remove lead from the water.

### 1/5 — Records gone!

*2023-06-22, version 1.1*

My records are gone! Wiped out to zero! Twice! It’s a fun game but I’m giving up.

### 1/5 — Repetitive and boring

*2023-05-28, version 1.0*

This game feels like an early beta version before proper features are added. Feels incredibly basic and you’ll lose interest very quickly in this game.

### 2/5 — It’s good BUT

*2025-01-25, version 1.4.0*

It is a good game. But, there is a delay when choosing characters or weapons. You never really hit what you want. If I do it either few seconds before or few second after I never get I want want but ether the previous o later either character or weapon.

### 2/5 — Annoying thing

*2025-01-14, version 1.4.0*

It was really good but it doesn’t even let me open it now. Yall really need to fix it. It’s a great game it’s just hard to play it when I can’t open the game…

### 2/5 — I miss the Alosauraus, Gorilla, Panda and Hard Mode

*2023-06-29, version 1.1*

Is there any way to add the in app purchase avatars back? Also, Hard Mode needs to be added… hollow victories on easy. Birds and Horseshoe crabs are also missed ❤️

### 2/5 — Time doesn’t stop

*2023-05-07, version 1.0*

I sometimes have trouble with fast reactions in games and need to break. I thought this game would be ideal, as I can “control time”.

Except, you don’t. There is a constantly moving enemy behind you, meaning if you stop for too long, you die.

### 3/5 — Fun but flawed

*2025-01-20, version 1.4.0*

The concept is good - essentially Superhot but as a 2D bullet hell shooter. It works well for the phone since you only need to slide one finger or thumb around.

However, it’s made more frustrating than it needs to be due to bad visual choices. Your weapon fire and the exploding fragments of bad guys are too big and overlaid on top the things you actually need to pay attention to, ie the bad guys you’re trying to avoid. Thus, the game isn’t so much about carefully avoiding enemies as it is about struggling to see them amidst all the VFX spam. Every time you die it’s because you didn’t see something, not because you couldn’t avoid it.

### 3/5 — Fun, with issues

*2023-08-11*

Hadn’t played the original, but this is tons of fun.  Have to say though, the bonus boxes at the beginning are extremely frustrating.  The selection of each bonus seems to be at least one screen off from what is showing.  Would be 5 stars otherwise.

**Developer response:** Thank you for playing.

This game is also so addictive I love it

### 5/5 — HOURS Gold Tempo Simulator

*2025-08-30*

This low-poly masterpiece is one of the best time killers.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-08-23, version 1.4.1*

I really enjoy this game, but I can’t stop thinking it would be great if there was a zen mode or an even a semi-zen where the darkness chasing you can be turned off.

### 5/5 — 👍🏻

*2025-07-04, version 1.4.1*

Such a great and simple game! 🖤
I still play the original after so many years, I’m happy I found out this exists

### 5/5 — Awesome! Just like they all say…

*2025-06-21, version 1.4.1*

I find assaulting penguins and watching them burst into thousands of cubes to be quite fun…at least in this game. Animal cruelty has no reason to exist.
