  1. [R2] Sky Roller 5/5 · US Love this game: Sky Roller is a very fun game. I don’t really have any feedback, I like the game how it is. There are some ads but most games are like that. My favorite part of the game is probably the bonus rounds. I love when you hit the the thing that makes you gain speed and then you get to launch your character and see how far you go. I would definitely recommend downloading Sky Roller.
  2. [R4] Sky Roller 2/5 · US Potato potato potato happy happy happy: It’s ok but it’s kind of boring.
  3. [R5] Sky Roller 5/5 · US So fun!: This is the best game I have ever played!
  4. [R12] Sky Roller 3/5 · GB Hi: I like the game but after I couple mins it get boring

  7. [R9] Sky Roller 3/5 · US Ads keep popping up: Ads popping up
  8. [R10] Sky Roller 1/5 · US Ad Rapist: Either watch mandatory ads or play levels twice or more. This is not a game. It’s a slot machine designed to waste your time and collect data. Avoid. And go support game publishers who actually care about games and don’t just want to rape their customers time. Most HOMA games are already bad to mediocre. But to waste the players’ time on top of this is just malicious.

  10. [R16] Sky Roller 1/5 · US How to stop it from trying to install: The app has been trying to install for two days now. How can I stop the install process? There’s no icon on my iPad‘s home screen so I’m not able to stop it from there. It’s just constantly trying to install from the App Store.
  11. [R65] Going Balls 4/5 · US Love it but one problem: Ever since I got this game it’s been glitching. There are also WAY TOO MANY ADS. I do like half of the level and the then an ad shows up. I do like the hard levels though. PLS fix the ads and glitches
  12. [R79] Going Balls 1/5 · GB VIP pass glitch: We got this for our son on his tablet who really enjoys this game but was very annoyed by the sheer volume of ads, usually we leave it but we paid for the 7 day VIP pass for him to play and enjoy the benefits just as a treat whilst he was sick, it was nearly a fiver as well which is more than we’ve ever paid for mobile games. We bought the pass on a Thursday and it was meant to la
  13. [R39] Sky Roller 5/5 · US Super Fun Game!, Sky Roller!: Sky Roller is much fun with lots of skating joy!! You swipe left to right to earn gems, avoid obstacles, and stay in the sky!! There a few ads every now and then, but most of them are completely worth it and most people don’t mind a few ads to earn 5x the amount of your gems!! This game is so fun! I highly recommend to anybody looking for fun obstacles and challenges
  14. [R47] Sky Roller 4/5 · US Really nice app: I love this app. It is so fun and I love that you get bonus friends to get diamond diamonds.

  16. [R15] Sky Roller 3/5 · GB I like it but ads: I like it but there’s wayyyyyyyy to many adds it’s like every round it’s an ad so I try and skip them and it gets worse but yeah good and fun app ig
  17. [R21] Sky Roller 3/5 · GB It’s okay: It’s a brilliant game and so fun it really does get your mind cleared and it does take some time to get used to but my concern is that after you finish the level it comes up with a advert and the Levallois aren’t very long that’s all I have to say thank you have a nice day and also I think 5+ can play well bye for now xxx
  18. [R61] Going Balls 2/5 · US adds Adds ADDS!: I spent more time watching ads then the actual game itself
  19. [R63] Going Balls 3/5 · US I love it with skip-it’s. Also, improve collision.: This is ripping me off and I’m going to say this: I HATE ADS AND I CAN’T EVEN PLAY WITHOUT WATCHING AN AD AND THE SKIP-ITS ARE SO RARE I PRACTICALLY HAVE TO DIE TO GET ONE. The collision often registers out so please fix that.
  20. [R76] Going Balls 1/5 · US Too many ads: Too many ads. Watching videos more than playing.
  21. [R81] Going Balls 3/5 · GB Ok put one thing: So basically, I used to play this game every day of every second randomly one day every time I fell off the track which was very often I i had to watch an advert and these adverts were short they were long, so if you want to watch ads every time you fall download it but remember I warned you people
  22. [R109] Going Balls 1/5 · GB Stole my money: Paid for ad free (how can they justify £4.99 for a few days only????) and they took the payment and didn’t remove the ads - complete rip off. Watch out!
  23. [R111] Going Balls 1/5 · GB Scam: Just paid £4:99 to get rid of adds. It’s taken money off me but shows an error on game and that we have no VIP. Scam.
