Latest update · v3.1.20

What the developer says changed (the verdict above weighs this against what reviewers report):

Minor changes & fixes

Recurring themes

Excessive Ads negative
The most prevalent complaint is the overwhelming number of ads, appearing after almost every level, sometimes even within gameplay or when trying to collect items. Many users find this makes the game unplayable and frustrating, leading to uninstallation. This contradicts the developer's 'minor changes & fixes' note, as ad frequency is a major issue.R3R4R7R10
Fun Gameplay positive
Despite the ad issues, many users genuinely enjoy the core gameplay, describing it as fun, simple, addictive, and stress-relieving. This positive sentiment often comes with a caveat about the ads.R1R2R3R5
Technical Issues negative
Several users report glitches such as falling off rails prematurely, inability to move, or issues with in-app purchases like the 'no ads' button or upgrade button not functioning. The requirement for an internet connection to play, even for a simple game, is also a point of frustration.R10R11R33R44
Repetitive/Difficulty negative
Some players find the game becomes boring due to repetitive levels after extended play or once all items are unlocked. Others struggle with specific levels being too hard or not receiving enough rails to progress.R3R16R30R39

Who it's for

This game is for casual players looking for a simple, fun, and stress-relieving experience who are willing to tolerate a very high frequency of ads R1R2R8. It is not for players who dislike frequent interruptions, require offline play, or expect a deep, non-repetitive gameplay experience R4R58R65.

Evidence note: The evidence for excessive ads is overwhelming and consistent across many reviews, making it the strongest theme. Positive reviews often mention the ads as a drawback, reinforcing the consensus. Evidence for specific glitches or repetitive gameplay is present but less frequent than ad complaints.

  11. [R58] 1/5 · US CANT PLAY OFFLINE!: EVERY SECOND THERES AN AD, so I tried to play offline but get a prompt saying I CANT CONNECT!! HOW SCUMMY CAN YOU BE! SMD
  12. [R87] 1/5 · US Ads Galore: There are WAY too many ads. i’m talking add after EVERY PLAY. also, i may wanna spend money to get no ads. there’s a button that has “ads” with a line through it, but it does absolutely nothing. I tried turning on airplane mode, and the game says “no connection, reconnect and try again” DO NOT GET THIS GAME IF YOU DO NOT LIKE ADS.
  13. [R111] 1/5 · US Ad farm: This app will not let you play without Internet when it most definitely does not need it. 👎
  14. [R11] 4/5 · US Skylar: When I get to the finish end my rail is long enough but is make me fall instead of letting me get to the 20x

  18. [R78] 1/5 · US Boring: Too many adds very hard and boring
  19. [R208] 3/5 · GB The game: The game is fun and simple for young kids but after awhile it gets boring. There are a lot of ads and there in the middle of the game. So my overall rating is a 3.
  20. [R217] 3/5 · GB My review: The game is very nice but the only problem is that it is very repetitive and after you finish upgrading that’s all then all you have are tasks and skins and also anytime you land at 20x you can’t go any further than the middle of 20
  21. [R30] 1/5 · US Why: Why do you guys make the rails to long
  22. [R39] 5/5 · US You want to hear me talk: I love this game so much!🤗🤗 I could play this game for years but I skip level 7. It was quite hard. Maybe you could make a level after me where you put no things that makes you bad disappear. But make the level really hard. I’m looking for it😀 Bye 👋 -From BEST PLAYER 😄😄
  23. [R112] 1/5 · US DO NOT GET THIS APP: I waited for 4ads to go to the vip area and all it gave to me was nothing ! WHEN I SAY IT DOESN’T WORK IT DOES NOT WORK!!!
  24. [R214] 3/5 · GB Upgrade Button not working: I would have given a better rating if not for a few glaring bugs. I bought the No ad since it was pretty cheap but after that the upgrade button stopped working.
  25. [R5] 5/5 · US Soooo good: I just love riding 😩
  26. [R16] 4/5 · US Pros and cons: Pro: it is so satisfying Con: the ads bro to many Pro: it’s really fun Con: the levels are so easy

  28. [R21] 2/5 · US too many adds: it’s a good game but there are adds every time i finish a level it’s insane.
  29. [R56] 1/5 · US ADDS: WAY TO MANY ADDS DO NOT DOWNLOAD
  30. [R248] 3/5 · GB I would’ve given it a five but there’s two things I don’t like: This game is really fun and addictive, I would advise it to anyone who gets bored really often or just wants to kill time. The thing I’m not happy with is that there are so many ads. There’s at least one ad before and after every level you complete. The other thing which I don’t like is that you can’t play this game offline. I think i
