  1. [R8] Lep's World 5/5 · US Wait, I played this in my Childhood?: Wow, a Super Mario Copy is good, But I Played it in My Childhood, Well Not Really that time.
  2. [R12] Lep's World 3/5 · US It’s alright: It’s a bit of a Mario ripoff but is very very fun and is better than most ripoffs
  3. [R18] Lep's World 3/5 · US Knockoff Mario alert!: Ok so I get it that they kinda came up with an original idea but this is literally a Super Mario world ripoff. I mean I have seen worse but this is still an unoriginal idea yet this game has gotten 2 other freaking games. In my personal opinion this game is kinda bad but not terrible it’s just kinda forgetful and boring.

  6. [R16] Lep's World 1/5 · US This game is bad and stupid: This game has dumb hard and almost impossible. The stupid game does not save pine cones. Music keeps cutting off. Playing this on an iPad mini SUCKS. Don’t play this on a beach because the stupid dumb water glitch’s the game.
  7. [R23] Lep's World 4/5 · US Fun platformer, but …: This is a really fun platformer - I’ve played a lot, and this one is just challenging enough with fun, variable gameplay. Two issues, one of which is consistently frustrating. First, there’s a treasure chest missing in world 4-5. I’ve watched a few walkthroughs for this level and the chest is just not there on my download. Second, and more disappointing, very often a long
  8. [R24] Lep's World 3/5 · US Great game but it’s a little bit too hard..: I am so happy that I am enjoying this game but it gets slowly harder, but I kinda like it! 😊

  10. [R3] Lep's World 3/5 · US It keeps on freezing: I love the game but sometimes I’ll beat the level and it will freeze up and will take me right to the beginning of that level wasting whichever power up I used .
  11. [R4] Lep's World 1/5 · US My rating of this game: This game is boiling, hot trash, it’s a bad idea for a game and on top of that it’s so buggy it’ll freeze at random points one star
  12. [R6] Lep's World 3/5 · US Fix the bugs please!: As an elder millennial, I love the MB nostalgia of this game! The ads suck, and even worse watching an ad to continue the level, only for the game to bug and none of your progress post-ad actually take.
  13. [R10] Lep's World 1/5 · US Ads: I don’t mind ads but these are never ending with no way to clear them without restarting. It’s annoying. Game is fun though
  14. [R20] Lep's World 4/5 · US Devs, this is smart: why is ranked paid on iPhone but not on Android? What's the point? · translated

  16. [R13] Lep's World 2/5 · US Need a fix: I love this game and we go wayy back but I just cannot stand how it pauses randomly and I’ll have to play the round again It pisses me off especially when it’s a hard one So please fix it The random pauses for no reason Thank you
  17. [R25] Lep's World 1/5 · US This stupid game keeps freezing!: I play this game every day and it freezes every day and I am just sick of it!

If not I will have to delete this game permanently.

  20. [R43] Lep's World 1/5 · US Too Many Ads: This game is fun but I am getting ads after EVERY level!!!!
  21. [R60] Lep's World 3/5 · GB Terrible: This is a rubbish game there is a thousand ads after every level or when u die there is more. Then there is a mistake they made cos your lives don't go down they stay the same (10). You don't even get to fort a beast at the end of the worlds like on LEPS WORLD 3 that is awesome x don't get this game 😫😱😳😖
  22. [R99] Temple Run 2 3/5 · US BAD GAME FOR MOBILE USERS: I want to be clear: I no longer enjoy your game at all. The tilt controls make it completely frustrating and unenjoyable. It’s ridiculous that I can’t swipe for all movement like in the original Temple Run. Please consider adding a full swipe control option. The current controls make the game unplayable for anyone who dislikes tilt
  23. [R106] Temple Run 2 2/5 · US Tilting: Game is decent, but the titling of the phone makes it unplayable when ur just lying down. Pointless feature
