Controller feature is broken
     
by Jmzrrr · March 4, 2022

Only brings up the pause menu and works in the menu. Not the game play.

Amazing game one request
     
by Fbsgggxf · April 23, 2016

This game is amazing and so much fun to play but once you beat all levels with three stars there's nothing to do so please add a survival mode with endless waves of enemies then the game would be complete

Mfi broken
     
by EWonApple · October 26, 2019

As of the last update, the mfi controller only works for the menus, not the game.

Really fun!!

by peachystardust · February 1, 2018

My son wasn't happy with this game. He wanted me to help him write a review. He was very upset because he couldn't get the guy to run. He could only make him jump

Great game
