Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We will admit, this game gives us a bit of nostalgia. We used to play it as a kid and always had a blast. Now, as an adult, we still find it equally as fun as we did back then. The games soundtrack is surprisingly good for a mobile game and really enhances the experience. Each of the different game modes are each creative and unique in their own way and offer a fair amount of variety. The power ups are extremely fun to use and have great graphics. The various challenges and their titles/artwork are witty, humorous, and interesting. You can tell the developers really put a lot of thought into this game. It really deserves more attention. Im not really big into playing mobile games nowadays, but this game is an exception and will always hold a special place in our heart.
This game is something that we have connected to our dad, us and our dad bonded over this game when we were young, this game is such an amazing piece of art and it holds a place in our heart, we will never forget this game, its finally gone after years, through this game us and our dad bonded and its hard to find stuff we do together nowadays since im older, please bring this game back, its a piece of art, the second game is nothing like this man, ill pay so much money to get this back and be able to relive these memories one more time.
Quite literally one of the best mobile games ever made. Love love love it. DEVS PLEASE MAKE THIS WORK ON NEW iPHONES!!! Your game no longer works on new devices, makes us all very sad.
This works on our iPad but does not work on our iPhone and that disappoints us. Otherwise hands down best game its so fun on the iPad.
We used to play this game constantly. We got it on our new phone and it doesnt work at all. Please fix it.
This game will always have a place in our heart.
Never to late to drop a review. Ive had this game since day one on our iPhone 4S and still have it until now on our iPhone 12 Pro Max. We hope they keep it going forever. Its so fun, so stressful to keep the little red dots at bay. With the money, we would pay for every new version.
We have reached a point where the IOS has killed the game. We will never forget the good times of us getting almost every achievement or our final score of 11,458,987 points. May you Rest In Peace.
Please please update it! We just buy it and find out we can not play it on iPhone 12that is so sad! We played it may be 10years ago. Somehow we just remembered this game because the game was so amazing. Please update it.
We used to play this so much. The controls were so precise and it was so so fun. Wish it would come back.
One of the best games. Please fix. Cannot play due to bug where you cant see arrow or pretty much anything. We love tilt to live 2 but these weapons for the first Tilt to Live are classics! One last fix please we need this forever.
This games awesome. Really enjoyable and easy or difficult enough for everyone. Recommend sharing and challenge your friends or loved ones.
Best game over had it for over 6 years Countless hours of consistent fun.
We love this game and only recently played it again for the first time in a long time. And wouldnt you know it we got the iPhone 12 today and it doesnt work. :-(.
Id like to keep this game on the latest iOS versions. The best game on our phone.
One of our original and favorite iPhone games that we hope gets an update soon. Currently it is practically unplayable due to lack of support and errors that have accumulated over time. Really hope it gets the support it deserves, or even an update that we have to pay for.
We ALWAYS PLAY THIS GAME ON THE TOILET.
The app is fun to play, simple yet addicting, has a great soundtrack, and has some jokes thrown in from the loading screen to the achievements you unlock. Plenty of fun. Unfortunately its got bugs on iPhone X and above and developer needs an update.
We stopped playing the game for a while and when we came back everything was all bugged out. The screen was all red, you couldnt even see your arrow, red dots were huge, and the game was essentially unplayable. Id like you guys to fix this so we can start playing again. Thank you.
Still the best iPhone game of all time.
Tilt to live iPhone version works on iPad. We were just trying it on different iOS devices and systems and it works on iPad and iPad Pro. Doesnt work on the following: iPhone X iOS 13 iPhone 7 iOS 13 iPhone 6s Plus iOS 13 iPhone 6 Plus iOS 8 Works on the following: iPhone 5s iOS 7.
Very, very addictive. Best iPhone game we've played ever. With the new modes it just gets better and better. Ive always loved this game. Please fix it to work on newer OSs. We need it back. Thanks.
This is the best game ever created for iOS. We got the first iPad because of plants vs zombies, but we kept it for tilt to live. This little gem has worked without fail on every iPad and iPhone until the most recent os update. We hope theres one last update coming to keep it alive, even if it means releasing it as a new app that is have to pay for.
Daleks on steroids! But you get power-ups. A great time waster; we like it better than Angry Birds. Now 64 bit YAY! Sadly it does not work with iOS 13.
Love this game but havent played in a while. Tried to play and the screen is all funky. Cant see anything because its all scrambled. Deleted and reloaded three time with no luck. When we can finally play it Ill give it 5 stars.
We just updated to os 13. Totally broke our game! Is there possibly an update for the new os in the works.
Ive loved this game since the og 3GS days! We reaaaaally reaaaally want this game to support the aspect ratio for our iPhone XS, that would be the icing on the cake:).
Ive been playing this since it came out. Its a perfect 2 minutes of action. Did not like v2 as much, not as simple. We are afraid that this game will go away unless you are making money off it. Could you sell some skins for it? Id love to pay you more to keep it going.
We love this really, thanks for making so good game.
Been playing this since it came out.. Its always entertaining.
Its just as fun as we remembered it be.
Played it for 7 years, never got bored.
Please update it to work on modern iOS.
We love this game but its broken now.. Hope you fix it soon because we only really play this ever.
Just paid for this, needs updates.
Hey, we love your game. Our opinion is that the original is better, but both of them are one of the greatest games ive ever played. Could u update them for the iphone xs/xr resolution.
Game now has distorted graphics and text. Cant see player icon. Unplayable in current state. Would love an update, we know the code is ancient and the tech debt must be insane, but please for the people.
We have 2 iPhones that we recently updated to IOS 13.1.3. One is a 6s and the other is a 6s plus. Just wanted the Dev to know the 6s displays just like it always has, but the 6s plus is all scrambled. Im hoping that ruling out the 6s might help you fix it.
No longer seems to be supported for iPhone 12 (iOS 18.4.1). Shame since, we loved this game growing up.
Used to love this game. Sad to see its unplayable now cause of a massive bug making the display all wonky.
When opening the app the screen is too big so we cant even play the game.
We loved this game when we were running on older phones and OSs. Now that Im running on an iPhoneXS we cant play this game anymore. Pleas update it! We still havent forgotten about this game.
Fix it so its playable on the X/XS max/ 11.
Needs to be updated to work with iOS 13.
As per usual the constant evolution of updates that are supposed to make using a smart phone better has made it worst. Thanks apple for doing nothing but taking away from an already fun enjoyable experience and offering nothing but more frustrations.
One Man Left studios, fix this game, its so awesome. We want to play it again.
Got a new phone only to realize T2L no longer works. You were fun, game.
This game was well reviewed, but not working.
We used to love this game. Sad to say it no longer works and development looks to have ended 3+ years ago. This should not be on the App Store any longer, especially for devices running current iOS versions.
Bought the game, the screen looks like game sprites at the start of the game, clearly incompatible or hasn't been updated we have an iPhone 12 pro. Tried to get a refund and was not allowed.
