Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
The sounds are bad! Because the "flavortopot.mp3" and "icefill.mp3" needed a replace before putting all the ice sound like aluminum stuff falling on something and the poring the mixture on to it sound like poring liquid on glass! They Might need a sound replace if TabTale was In charge so it can fit iOS 15 and Up.
Cant you believe this app came out back in 2013? Well, we believe you should download it again.
We were so young this was our favorite game.
Tbh we havent played this game in a long time. It was never great but its so nostalgic for us. We used to play this during our childhood and ill always remember it. This isnt very constructive but this is so nostalgic.
We played this game when we were little and we were obsessed now Im older but we STILL NEED TO PLAY THIS we LOVED IT AND REMINDS ME OF MY CHILDHOOD.
We AM A BLACK PERSON AND we WENT TO OPEN IT ANS IT GAVE ME A WHITE SCREEN!!!! We AM NOT WHITE!! THIS IS FALSE ADVERTISEMENT FOR ME AND MY KIDS IN MY BASEMENT.
Our little sister got this game and it wont start. It just stays at a white screen.
This game is so much fun we love it a lot. YOU NEED TO GET THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All the fun levels and it challenging too.
We love this game one because we like ice cream and two because it is challenging once you get up to different levels it is so much fun.
We love this game so much its awesome.
This game is really fun and we were looking forward to serving the customers. We keep on making new flavors, but they keep on saying we need to add and make two more flavors. Well we keep on making two more flavors, but it never lets us serve our customers. Please fix this game right away thank you.
You can't make two kind of ice cream.worst game ever.
When you get to level 2 you have to the full game to move on to level 3,4,and 5.
We know there is only one other review but some people just do not like writing reviews LOVE THIS GAME it is awesome we don't care if people say its for babies we are 12 and we play it Thankyou,.
This game lets you make the ice cream, choose your flavor, and serve it to your customers! :) :). AWESOME.
Its ok but you have to buy stuff.
When we try to make a new ice cream flavor, the ice cream flavors are locked and the "x" button doesn't work so the only way to get out of the app is to click the home button.
We don't like that u have to spend real money to unlock things u should be able to unlock things a different way.
This app is for a 3 year old. Stupid app don't download, its a waste of space.
Purchased app to avoid ads. But ads still pop up during each flavor change bad app.
When you get to the 4th place to sell ice cream you have to buy ice cream for $4.00.
Purchased app to avoid the constant pop ups just to have even more pop ups for other apps. Do not download unless you want to stay by iPad to turn off pop ups for your kids.
Best app ever! We can't stop playing! Totally get it.
This game is so cool! You make your own ice cream and get to serve people. This is the best game ever.
Ice cream magic is so good that all our 34 year old friends want to play it.
This game is so cool ok cool people ok cool AWESOME so awesome so cool to we love it love it love it mere than this ok like this.
It keeps going black. Our granddaughter got to play it twice and that was that. Very disappointed.
It says we can make candy like chocolate and we can't figure out how!Otherwise the game is really cool.
From our child: "This app gave us another background but the ice cream is locked. We really want to find out what the customer does and we give it zero stars because we can't see the background because it is locked.".
At first the game is really fun, But then you have to pay for new levels. Once you get to level underwater you have to pay! There is no way you can continue the game without it.
We downloaded this game and we started to load it but it got to the entrance and just quit. We tried to do this at least 15 times but it did the same thing all 15 times. Wish we could play.
Do not buy this it is boring and crashes down a lot.
We're running it on iPad 1, OS 5.1.1. It blacks out after brief glimpse of startup page.
Every time we get on the app it freezes and then crashes. It looks like a cool game if it would work. Anyone else having this problem.
Fun to decorate ice cream with candy.
You should get this!! Other then you have buy things. But other then that it is a great game.
This is a really great game we think every one that reads our review should get it .if you don't then your dumb and stupid.
It is a great we think that moms and dads should let there kids have it.
We love it but you have to pay money to get more ice cream bins.
We love it its cool but its also fun to play with kids with this app.
OMG we love this game.it's very good ;).
We think wheel we're 8 and we think it's good we don't like that they have all flavers.
It is a fun game and we love our kids playing the game.
This game is cool but you have to buy 2 more things to put your ice cream in when you git to level 3 we wish you didn't have to please update.
This game is soooo Fun!!! We highly suggest getting it.
Our 3 year old daughter plays this and it's cute, but when you're serving the customers, they get angry and leave for no reason. When she tries to give them the cone, they won't take it. Other than that it's fun for her.
We think it needs more flavors.It is a bit fun not much.Please upgrade it.
It's expensive to buy all the stuff to continue. We're deleting this off of our iPod. We don't know who can afford the things to continue! Especially in these hard economic times.
We like it but at the end it it is dumb.
But quite short for the large amount that we payed for it. If we pay 3.99$ we expect more than just 5 levels. We recommend to anyone who doesn't mind paying a lot for a little. Stick to the free version.
