Community Insight:
Hard to put down its so fun. Wish there was a skip after you have been to world 6. You have to go all the way back to start.
It is an awesome game but it takes a long time to load and sometimes it freezes while we are swinging that causes us to lose.
Finally in the apple store! YAAAAY.
This game is a must have. Once you start playing you can't stop. Good for all ages. A huge thank you to the makers of this fun game.
We just love this game. So addictive. It could be better with more things to unlock beyond the airplane more worlds more interactions from friends and more ways to earn bananas.
We love this game but if you play it too much it'll get you motion sick.
OMG LOVE THIS APP IT'S SO FUN.
Love it. Regular updates with great additions. Super fun.
Fun, and more fun, a must have for anyone.
Level 6 either needs more vines or stop making them so slippery it's exceptionally frustrating.
We LOVE this app, but it lags and crashes so much on our Ipod 4! Please fix we love this game so much.
Every time we buy something, like 10 games later whatever we bought is gone. Like snake oil for example, we upgraded it to it's max and when we played a few games after that it was gone.
This game dosent work MAKE it WORK.
We would not know how to rate it because it keeps crashing PLEASE HELP.
Does not work if you have iPod 4th gen sorry.
We just recently rediscovered this videogame. We used to play it in Kindergarten, and we stumbled upon it looking for another app. This game is super fun and not too many ads. The one star reviews will tell you there is too many ads and a lot of glitches. This is untrue because we downloaded it with no problems and we have several friends who also have this game with no problems and they have older phone models like iphone 6 and 8. Works on Android and iOS.
We love the game so much, but soon after realizing that you get bored of the monkey you are using (correct us if Im wrong) gets not so, how do we put this, boring in a way. You could add a monkey and rope customization tab somewhere and that would probably increase the popularity of the app. Overall we would love to see the day you add this, and this is the best single thumb game there is.
Honestly this was our favorite game when we were 3 years old, it was 2017 we played this game, and now am 12. We feel like downloading this childhood game again cause its giving nostalgia vibes and somehow we love it.
Fun game! Some of the missions are pretty tough but makes it addictive.
This is a great game, it does have lil glitches here and there, but not really bad ones. Just like a second pause then it continues and it doesn't constantly do it.
We love it. We can't seem to put it down. A little hard at first, but it gets better the more you play. Great game.
This is awesome but it keeps crashing please fix.
It is definitely worth getting. A good time killer.
Love the game it's addicting but a bit glitchy besides that it's a great game with a cute monkey. :).
Amazing game , worth wasting time on.
Love the game and it never crashes on us y'all must have a sucky phone. Step your phone game up.
We have gone bananas over this one :).
It's challenging and it keeps us playing for a long time.
Fun game love to play with the monkey.
Great simple fun game that's different nearly every time you play a level since there's so many combinations of vines to swing from. Only critique is the menu system doesn't easily let you move between worlds and the things you can buy are so expensive! :( you can't even tell a difference with the first upgrade levels :( still though, it's a great game.
One of our favorite games ever.
Very addictive and we like the worlds.
Great game. The squeak every time he swings is kinda annoying tho.
Super addictive the most played on our phone in the last few days lol along with their hill climb racing get try it it's also awesome.
The monkey totally looks like Jimmy Neutron.
This game is the bomb.It's addictive like Temple Run.we would recommend this to any age if your bored you should play so have fun.
This game is great! It is a riot to play.
Game is the bomb!!! Well done guys.
This game is great we love swinging,monkeys and bananas.
This is a great game, we play it with our daughter and she loves it. Well done guys.
Espera por esse jogo no iOS a tempos.
Every1 LISTEN this is the best GME EVER.
Well we have nothing to say bc we have yet to play:).
Great game guys we love it very challenging but fun keep it up.
This is a pretty fun game, the only thing that gets us is that the monkey has no feet, ya know just a little thing but still a good time waster.
It's a fun game but you should be able to skip missions because some we can't beat.
It a really fun game but there are always glitches! We can get on the app after around 9pm and its always REALLY SLOW! It really disappointed us because other wise it is an addictive fun game.
This game is awesome and we love love love it! It's so afflicting but after the first few games it started crashing every time we clicked start, it needs an update to fix the glitches. But other then that extremely fun.
Would give 5 stars but there is not much reward. It costs a lot just to buy one time items.
