Community Insight:
Been in playing for a while. Solid all around.
We figured out that instead of typing DIR Progressbar you now type CD Progressbar and same with BarOS, this game is amazing and we just now got BarOS 10.12 which now gives that flat, modern look to BarOS 10, we like this game very much and extra points for being nostalgic! If we could, we would rate this game Infinity/10.
Our favorite game it gives nostalgia but to much adds.
As an autistic 14 year old who wishes she was born in the 80s or 90s, this is the mac to our cheese! We love old computers (we own a Mac SE ourselves lol) so this is super fun! Cant wait for someone to put this on a floppy.
Mobile game of all time fr no jk.
Uh we like this game our husband introduced it to us, very peak. We LOVE BIN.
Great game (we don't really have Much to say at this point…).
Id like to post custom posts in Pbook.
Cool game really like it , would recommend for people who like old operating systems, or have nostalgia for them.
This game is so good that if we forgot about it 9 out of 10 we would probably install it back. Been playing for 2 years or so.
This game is a great game and perfectly replicates the feeling of 90s computers. However, we have found some bugs, such as the calendar being a day behind and sometimes, when shutting down a system rather than restarting, it doesnt display the safe to shutdown text and just kicks you out of the game. Great game though.
We adore retro things and this is perfect. It is a time killer like Jason Voorhees we love it.
Bro we love this game it only has ads once in a lifetime its a great time killer and you have so many choices we think we like it highly suggested.
Big time killer and fun its a classic game of fun tbh who ever made this is the best.
This is awesome. No words, just awesome.
We love the game but our only problem is that, for whatever reason, Progressbar XB wont go past level 120 no matter how many times we play the games.
Its the best game ever and its so fun, we were in a road trip and did not realize HOURS passed.
We love this game because it brings back old memories from the old computer.
Why not BarOS 26? 5.5 stars and also for no reason when we have no ad free (but we do have it) it doesn't generate ads so ad free is useless.
So our friend told us about this game and we downloaded it and its a great time killer. From the time we have submitted this we are halfway through of ProgressbarMeme. This is probably the best AppStore game.
Ive been playing this game for many months maybe even a few years and its a great time killer. We love computers so this was right up our alley they basically turned the operating system from a computer and turned it into a game. And its so satisfying. Although there is one thing you cant unlock everything in one sitting it takes multiple months even years to do that. So keep that in mind.
We been playing for a while and the game is fun dont get us wrong but it needs more game modes after unlocking pro whats is there to do after? It would be nice to have more games to play like new games for expert, master, adept and grand. Even making new games for specific systems old and new.
Im from the old DOS world and this game is incredibly accurate to the old computers behavior and loads of fun in a nostalgic way. We enjoy it so much. Hate the adds.
100% recommend it but idk how to get product keys cuz we wanna use 8 bit systems. Also works with no wifi but if u DO have wifi then the ads arent tht much.
It is a very fun PERFECT idle game. We love how the spam email relates to real life, but it isnt as annoying id say its a fun idle game and we would highly recommend it to anyone.
This game is really fun to play when bored.
This is so amazing but we have a few suggestions: 1: One thing with BarOS, plz add more BarOS 10 editions, like how MacOS had many iterations on Mac OS X (all of them were: 1. OS X 10.0 Cheetah 2. OS X 10.1 Puma 3. OS X 10.2 Jaguar 4. OS X 10.3 Panther 5. OS X 10.4 Tiger 6. OS X 10.5 Leopard 7. OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard 8. OS X 10.7 Lion 9. OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion 10. OS X 10.9 Mavericks 11. OS X 10.10 Yosemite 12. OS X 10.11 El Captain 13. OS X 10.12 Sierra 14. OS X 10.13 High Sierra 15. OS X 10.14 Mojave 16. OS X 10.15 Catalina) before continuing to MacOS 11 Big Sur. Also it will make the game more challenging and more of a flex to get all BarOS systems. There would be more systems so it would take longer. Just plz add 14 other BarOS 10 editions that are based on all of the real Mac OS X versions except Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, Mac OS X 10.13 High Sierra, and Mac OS X 10.0 Cheetah cuz you already have versions based on those 2: Plz change the names of BarOS 10, 10.II, and 10.III to BarOS X 10.0, BarOS X 10.6, and X 10.13 (if you do add all the other BarOS 10 systems plz name them BarOS X 10.# codename (the hashtag means said iteration)) (Also for 2. Plz add a specific codename for each version, but make it slightly different than the actual codename so it is not copyrighted, like how you did with Progressbar Wista, it was actually supposed to be Vista but u changed the V to a W to make it not copyright.) Also plz add a new BarOS system based on the all-new macOS Tahoe, and if u do, plz add a Liquid Glass option (cuz we are a huge fan of Liquid Glass(but also to match the real OS). We know we are very picky with anything related to Apple, but that is because it is our favorite tech company and we know a lot about all their products, even all their OSs they make. Anyways thanks for the great game 5 stars plz try these suggestions in the game to make it even better. Thanks k bye.
This is the best game ever. 5 stars :).
Its s fun game, sure there are ads but they arent overwhelming, its just a genuinely fun game we would recommend.
Well we Love This Game of Like What Computers Are From Years Ago Back in The 90s Era And Overall we Love it Because Im A Retro Freak Thats Because we Respect That Decade Ever Since we Was A Kid Growing Up in The Early 2000s Im in Love With This Game Even Though Ive Already Beaten it A Couple Months Earlier When we First Downloaded it on our Phone And Now Im Never Deleting This! 100/10.
We absolutely LOVE this game. Especially the IDLE system and the bin pet. Could we make an achievement suggestion? Our suggestion is to have achievements for when you get a certain edition for each IDLE computer. Yes, we know, theres an achievement for the Grand edition already. But, we want to have a few more like that, but for the other 4 editions. Im not saying you have to, its only a suggestion.
If their objective was to give us Win95 vibes, they SUCCEEDED. Its also a good reminder that some of yesterdays problems still exist.
We love it. This is heavily based off of the Microsoft Windows series. Our favorite is Progressbar XB. Its heavily based off of Windows Xp. Keep up the Great work. Make a Sequel soon okay.
We absolutely love the design esthetic of this game. It brings back great memories.
We mean its just going through OSes but its fun to play everywhere! We dont really have more to say btw :(.
This is super cool its not nostalgic since Im 10 but theres almost no ads and its fun.
Works on everything even iphone 5s.
Cool game, what to say instead.
If we could only have one game on our phone it would be this one. The gameplay, sound design, and visuals immerse you in nostalgia. 10/10 would recommend.
Super fun game, as someone who loves old computers and old operating systems for some reason this was so fun for us and we played it for so long lol. We barely got any ads, which was great because usually mobile games always give you an ad just by clicking a button. Love this.
Theres so much to do. The game is insanely fun and enjoyable, on pc or on mobile. Not to mention they keep adding more. We played years ago and this game has always been fun.
This game has so many different twists and turns that im never bored, we love progressbar95.
We want to say, great job on the new disc burning feature. We just wish we could do it more than once, though like we can with the screensavers. Just saying. The other features like the non fungible tokens and the Block chain are really good too. Desaturated mode can really help prevent issues like red segments on red backgrounds, but what about black text on a black background.
Good game, good game idea, but after our first game, every time we try to play, we get hit with an unskippable ad. Can you fix this? Its really enraging. We will change our review to 5 stars if you fix it. Thank you for your time.
We have tendonitis in our right arm and its very tiring to be tapping over and over the same spot to pick up a cookie on websites. Or to close things. Everything is just too small if you could make an option in settings for things to be a bit bigger. We also notice that changing the text to be bigger on the phone makes it hard to navigate the game as well. So maybe if you made an option for everything bigger than you could make the big text options fit. We love this game. Small improvements like this would mean the world to us and other players with issues in their hands.
Please, we're begging you to add landscape mode support.
We think it would be cool if it was actually windows on iPhone but this is the best we have right now.
Whenever youre in a level and youre going into settings and try to change your theme setting the game like the taskbar goes away and the game is soft locked that you should probably fix this bug within the game code.
DO YOU KNOW HOW COOL MY USERPIC IS!? ITS OREN FROM SPRUNKI.
