Recurring themes

Updates & Changes negative
Many long-time players are highly critical of recent updates, citing changes to the UI, customization screen, missions, and abilities as making the game less fun and devaluing previous progress. The removal of features like 'Workshop' is also a common complaint. The developer notes mention new abilities and easier upgrades, but users report their existing abilities were de-ranked and new ones are pay-gated.R12R68R116R119
Ads & Monetization negative
A significant number of reviews express frustration over the constant and intrusive ads, often appearing after every round. Players also feel the game has become 'pay-to-win' with the new Stumble Pass structure and ability upgrades requiring payment.R74R109R134R147
Gameplay & Levels mixed
While many find the core gameplay fun and challenging, a common complaint is the repetitive nature of levels, with users frequently playing the same few maps. Some also find certain levels too hard for beginners or specific abilities in ranked play unfair.R3R12R29R38
Performance & Bugs negative
Many users report issues with lagging, glitches, and connectivity problems, even with good internet. Some also experience login failures or bugs with in-game purchases and club features.R4R20R22R45
Customization & Rewards negative
Players find it difficult to acquire skins and other customization items, often citing unfair 'lucky wheels' or the need to pay. There are also complaints about the lack of variety in certain skin types (e.g., girl skins) and the devaluation of ability skins after updates.R4R52R63R87

Who it's for

Stumble Guys is for players looking for a fun, casual, and often challenging multiplayer obstacle course game, especially those who enjoy playing with friends R11R19R25. It's also suitable for kids R25. It is not for players who dislike frequent ads, repetitive levels, or a 'pay-to-win' progression system R74R147R266.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative regarding updates, ads, and 'pay-to-win' aspects, which contrasts with the high lifetime rating. This suggests a recent decline in user satisfaction, particularly among long-term players. The positive reviews often praise the general fun factor without addressing these specific recent issues.

  14. [R12] 3/5 · US It got worse :(: So I’ve been playing stumble guys for a few years and the updates were more and more fun but with the newer stumble pass, customization screen, missions, and main screen have just sucked A LOT. The newer simpler abilities have made the game less fun and it feels like the progress I made for those just got reduced to nothing. I am writing this review to hope the devs read it and m

  17. [R134] 1/5 · US Ruining the game: You guys are ruining the game because of all of your updates you made 1. Now you have to pay for both of the stumble pass so now you can’t use gems. 2. There is no skin for the ability’s so they look boring. 3. You add new abilities that people can’t use because they have to pay. Like how is this good for your game. Also you don’t read any of my reviews so that is also not he
  18. [R74] 2/5 · US May never been seen: I love this game a lot fun to play but it’s a pay to win game and that sucks there no talent in those games just a bunch of suckers that paid $25 so they can win there no talent anymore and I’ve played this about when it came out and it becoming very disappointing that and the adds that are every minute/game it’s awful can’t get away from it it’s like you guys don’t care about
  19. [R109] 3/5 · US Adds!!!!: Why are there adds every single time you finish one round? Other than that it’s very good game
  20. [R147] 2/5 · US Ruined an original game 🥀: I used to play this game when I was little . After about 3 years , I got a new phone that got rid of all my progress . I was devastated. But not as devastated as when I found out the “ amazing “🙄😒😑 update they made . Ads everywhere. Ads ever three seconds. Ads ads ads . I loved - Correction : I used to lov playing this game . But now a childhood memory has become a upset
  21. [R198] 3/5 · US Make ads-remover purchaseable through gems: Stumble guys is a good multiplayer game, but why is there a forced ad after every game? This is the destroying point of every game specifically that this game is a famous game, that’s probably one of the reasons the game is dying.
  22. [R166] 1/5 · US Terrible Game: Very laggy, even when on the newest Mac the awful game still is unbearable to play on. Very scuffed, it is pay 2 win and not fun at all in conclusion don’t buy this game it is a waste of storage space and just sucks
  23. [R266] 3/5 · GB Now pay to win …: It was a really fun game to play but instead of every player being equal the ‘pay to win’ losers can now suddenly shoot you and push you about etc. etc. , Another good game spoiled by greed and pathetic ‘win’ buyers.
  24. [R38] 3/5 · US Overuse of levels: They overplay only some levels so it like a six level rotation
  25. [R113] 3/5 · US My opinion: Hello, the game is very enjoyable and I have had fun so far. The only problem is that I keep playing the same games, there’s like 15 options and I keep on playing the same 3-5 games all over again. Thanks!
  26. [R149] 3/5 · US ADS AND ALWAYS JURASSIC RUSH: I HATE THIS GAME NOW SO IF YOU DONT DELETE THE JURRASIC RUSH OBSTACLE I'M QUITTING FR
  27. [R163] 3/5 · US It’s alright: It’s uses the same 4 maps over and over and over.. and the 5 free lucky wheel spins a day never lands on anything good..
  28. [R22] 1/5 · US This game is so bad: I can’t even play at home because it needs a lot of internet to play I can’t believe that FGTeeV even plays this
  29. [R57] 1/5 · US Stumble Guys is trash: Every time I play Stumble Guys it’s always super glitchy and my Internet’s good and when I wanna move, it doesn’t lightly move and when I don’t wanna move, it makes me move so one star do not get

  31. [R160] 1/5 · US Bad game: Really bad game keeps glitching and every time I get something it never goes through and when I earn something very annoying and it won’t let me try skins/clothes etc sometimes it logs me out in the middle of the game
  32. [R52] 2/5 · US Getting skins: Why so hard to get skins
  33. [R63] 3/5 · US Don’t do the wheels: Pretty fun game but the wheels are a big scam

  42. [R20] 5/5 · US Great update - only a bug for clubs: The update is great! The events were fun and challenging, but there’s only one bug in this game that when I tried to kick a player out of the club that is gone for a few months, it gives me a message about something wrong and it doesn’t kick the player. So, can you fix it for me please.
  43. [R45] 4/5 · US Why are there so many bugs?: So today, I just opened the app and I realized that my clubs sign have been changed, and I am the captain, there’s only one other co-captain, which I believe do not have the privilege to change it, so what’s wrong with it? Also, every single time after I played a tournament I just guessed stuck on the page and couldn’t click anything, but I know for sure. It’s only the
  44. [R112] 2/5 · US I Love it but…: I love every thing about it but I don’t really like how you need wifi to play it but other than the I love it because his there’s other games but if you didn’t need wifi I could play it when my fam goes on trips
