IPhone X review! IOS 16.7.12 Fun! Havent played this in years.
It is so much fun! There are a few adds here and there,but we still think it is a great game.Please,give it a try.
Used to play this back in 2015-16.
LOVE this game, please give us more.
Far better than the popular Going Ball app which is riddled with ads and other redundant features that block the experience of the actual game.
The game is good, but the slippery movement for us is justbad But everything else, Makes this A PERFECT game And the games realism, Dont get us started on that beautiful stuff.
And thats a good thing. This game has been with us since our iPod touch and somehow its still with us 13 years later. What a blast from the past.
One of the best games on the App Store and we've been playing this over and over again since 2010. This game has very exemplary Game music, some of the best as you play to a relaxing melody when vexation arrives at certain levels.
We had this downloaded on our phone around 2013 and love it since. Over time with switching phones we lost it and could get it back on our phone. Im glad we were able to find it again. Still fun as we remembered it, and best part is that it has 0 ads.
Its a really wonderfully straightforward game with no stupid frills or complications. We are neurodivergent and wanted a game we could just play. This one is interesting enough to hold our attention but chill enough that theres no pressure. A plus.
We remember playing this when we were younger and we would rage so much lol. Now it feels so nostalgic to play, great game.
This game and the music is so much fun to play and relaxing.
We love playing this game at our childhoodand we have been looking for itnow we finally find it.
Aerox was the first ever game we downloaded on our first ever phone, the iPhone 4. Back in the day, everybody was talking about Fruit Ninja and Angry Birds, but Aerox really caught our eye when we were looking for a game to try out. It was instantly addicting; we must have finished all the levels that day. The simple rolling mechanics and level design are still very unique and fun. Ill play Aerox once in a while to relive that day of coming home with our first iPhone and being fascinated with this game. Id absolutely pay for a second Aerox with modern graphics and mechanicswith community level building a huge plus.
Ive been looking for this game for years. It was a part of our childhood and we played it when we were younger then ended up forgetting about it. After playing it again, we were really happy with how smooth the gameplay was and how fun it is! We would definitely recommend this to anyone.
We used to play Aerox years ago and am happy to be returning to it on a new iPad. It is very fluid and beautifully crafted.
Super fun and pushes away boredom but we really wish there was a joystick mode because the rotation mode makes it hard to play on the move. One more problem is that the obstacles reset when you die, we got stuck a few times because the obstacles were stuck how they were before we died.Otherwise we would highly recommend.Four Stars.
Great idea but having your device tilted at a certain angle to change the camera's orienting speed ? Nah please do certain angle cause a relative camera angel next time.
Maybe its our iPhone but we found the ball hard to roll and steer. So that wasnt as fun for us. Perhaps in a later update where the ball is easier to roll we can update this review.
Its not good at all. The only way to move is to move your phone so just the slightest move makes you restart. And every time we try to move we have to tilt our phone so much that the glare takes over and we cant even see where we are going. And when we try to stop, it takes us back too far and we fall off and have to restart the level.
Theres another similar game here called Ballz and Ballz 2. Play that game, devs, and base your controls on that. The controls and camera in this game is incredibly frustrating.
It is just. WONDERFUL. The graphics? AMAZING. The levels? EXTREMELY FUN AND CHALLENGING. The overall game? ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Definetly one of our favorite ball games out there! Its very futuristic! The music is very good as well! And its actually kind of relaxing! AMAZING GAME! 10/10.
Hand eye coordination excellent graphics just simply great great fun -aloha.
Its graphics are really good and the controls aren't really good you should add joystick mode plz and that's what we want overall it is a good game.
This is a game we would play ALL the time as a kid and we ended up losing the name of it until eventually we found it again! We were so happy! The game is so relaxing and has awesome graphics. The only issue is that we cant buy all the balls but we dont care! 5 stars all around.
We love this game so much and ive been playing it for so many years please add more levels.
This game is so great. Our childhood are came back again. But can you guys make it became a multiplayer version please.
Ive played this game when we were 6 and we love it it gives us good vibes to.
Thank you. This was one of our childhood favorite games. Somehow you made the most fun puzzle games Ive ever played. Playing this game years later has brought us so much nostalgia and Im glad it hasnt changed a bit.
Hi, this game is GREAT! But the thing is the levels are running out fast for us! Ive finished the whole game in 4 days. Im really looking forward to new levels :P.
We really love the music, atmosphere and physics of this game! Really wish they make a new installment for this awesome game.
All we can say is that we used to play this on our dads phone when we were a little kid and we had so much fun on it and its forever one of our favorite childhood games.
Hi Dev, we just want to thank you for hours of childhood enjoyment. As a grown man we remember playing this at our grandparents place on their iPad when we would sleep over and the music is so beautiful and nostalgic. Gameplay of course is great, goes without saying. Thanks.
Ive finally found our favorite childhood game after years of searching! Better than we remember. Seriously underrated.
We absolutely LOVE this game. We looked for it for an hour because we got memories of it! We played this game back in 2013 and we started crying when we found it.
We absolutely love the game! We love the tilt controls and how all the levels are different and challenging. Only thing we would want to change is the size of the ball break button in the button left corner, it can get kinda hard to press if you have long fingers.
This game is so fun and nostalgic. We used to have this game on a tablet over 6 years ago and was amazed when we found it on iOS recently. Its way better then any other copy cat game like rolling balls.
We have been playing the game for YEARS.
We LOVE THIS GAME ITS REALLY ADDICTING AND IT SOOTHES YOUR MIND WELL (except if you are on a hard level lol).
We first learned about this app from our dad and we quickly got addicted to it. The puzzles are challenging and fun to solve and the graphics are amazing.
This is the best game ever so calming.
Whenever we get a new phone, we always go looking for this game.. It gets challenging throughout the levels but unlike other games, it constantly gets interesting.
To is a very good game to play when your bored and need something to do.
We love this game so much Ive played this game all through tour our childhood and just can across so excited to play.
Ive played this game for so long and its nostalgic to us. The game has great graphics and gameplay mechanics and is relaxing.
Hey,its ya boi Braeden/Inki here!!we love the game sooooooooo much that Id like more levels!!Please make more levels or at least a level builder mode with items you gain by playing levels.It could also have a player level thing that allows you to play other peoples levels!!That would get ya lots omoney! Till next time this has been ya boi Braeden/Inki.
Its one of the first games we ever played. Recently came back to it – new levels. Still one of the best Ive ever played. Addictive, fun, challenging. Thanks for creating.
We played this game as a wee lad of about 9 or 10 and we revisit this game every time we feel sad or lost and this game get's us through. We love playing the level's as they get added over the years. This game is everything a game needs to be. Fun, challenging, relaxing, and soothing. This game makes us really happy and we hope you enjoy it too.
