HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (18 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ I loved this game soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much I play it all the time!And free 😲
★★★★★ This game would easily have five stars but the only problem is the levels you have to pay to go on and I don't think that's fair because you can really play one level and then you have to pay to continue playing a free…

The game is crashing when I am even on IOS 26.6.1

When I finish a level and then press for the next level and on, the game is acting normal. But when I press the homepage button, it loads and shows the levels selection (how it normally looks). Then about 2 seconds later the music starts glitching and like 1 second later it kicks me out of the game to the Home Screen of my Iphone. I see another review/rating that is having the same problem sent on September 7, 2026 by an account named “Bellringer2619”. Please try to fix this and thank you all.

★★★★★Sep 7, 2026
Game is barely functioning

A while back I redownloaded this game because I remembered playing a bunch when I was a child, and wanted to hold onto it for as long as possible. However, the game has a major app-crashing issue in that it hasn’t been updated in over 8 years, so when an ad plays it causes a memory leak that crashes the app until I offload it. I really hope that the game is refurbished at some point to remain playable.

★★★★★Jul 28, 2026
mr. crash…

i want to like this game, concept is great, but the game just keeps crashing

★★★★★Jul 23, 2026
Functionality of the app

The app worked well way before, now, the app is obviously experiencing code rot and is not letting players advance to the other levels but instead kicking them out the app. It brought back great memories and it’s sad to see a game in a state like this.

★★★★★Jul 10, 2026
ざんねん

昔やってたから久しぶりにインストールしてみたらなん回やっても強制終了させられる…🥲ほんとどうにかして〜

★★★★★Jul 4, 2026
Insta crashes
