Community Insight:
We were playing Holiday Hills with the Strange Mage pet and we reached the finish line at the top of a ditch. Then we dove and went backwards uncrossing the finish line. Then we stopped diving and crossed the finish line again. We repeated this a couple of times and the guy turned upside down.
Its one dollar. No ads. Best casual fun you will have all day. We know 0.99 games are kinda like an ehhhh for some people, but this is absolutely worth it, this game is by no means a scam, and is one of the most entertaining mobile games Ive played in a long, long time. Ive owned it since we were seven and Im STILL playing it. It is absolutely worth the money, and is by no means pay to win either. Every game by Kumobius is amazing. 11/10.
Our eyes and soul have expanded because woahh.
We played this game ever since we got our we pad and we still use it to kill time (sometimes in class).
Why did u take it down, its the most addicting mobile game ive ever played and ive been playing on mobile for over a decade.
Ive been playing this game for a long time, a very innovative and colorful game. We just want to mention how pleased we are that this game still does not have ads that ruin the users experience. Keep it up.
Game is so good because it was the best with flying and go back to the other thing that allows you to go back like time traveling.
It keeps us calm and focused and its fun.
One of the best iOS games around.
Theres an impossible mission that says "collect all gems in a sky constellation without using a magnet bonus" we have been trying to do it for so long and theres no way to complete it.
Colorful, beautiful, and entertaining. We absolutely love that play the more you earn in this game.
Still our favorite game on the app a store.
We frickin love this game! The graphics are extremely pleasing, the loading screen visuals are gorgeous, the way you can pick up speed is insane, But, a comment on a old game, PLEASE bring bean dreams/beans quest back! That game was our childhood, and we are extremely disappointed that they took it down to replace it with common/borderline games like wall kickers. PLEASE bring it back, Im begging you. EDIT: as much as you guys like to think its a boring unoriginal copy of tiny wings, tiny wingss map is boring, never changes, and doesnt have any powerups. We bet you would choose this knockoff over tiny wings. Also, we heard the AI in tiny wings is hard to beat, at least this game doesnt utilize that.
Great game, daft penguin is our spirit animal.
Time suffer is amazing because the cake you get so easily.
After playing this game, it ranked in our list of favorite games. We downloaded the game again today and it was still as enjoyable as it was in the past. One thing that's different from the past, however, is that the game's loading screen doesn't fit with new devices, so we really hope the author can update and fix it.
This particular game has been on and off our phone for the past five or so years. The game itself is very fun, providing addictive gameplay and unique time mechanics. However, the game could be made better. Despite the enjoyability of the game in its current state, it proves overtly frustrating at times. After you reach a certain distance, the game shifts focus from escape the end of the universe to avoid the godforsaken spikes. Albeit, there is a solution to this! If a zen mode were to be introduced, in which there are not spikes, aliens, or asteroids every 2 seconds, the game would improve vastly. We are not calling for a simplified version of the pre-existing game mode, but rather a different, more tranquil game where all one attempts is to pick up speed and escape the end of the universe. This improvement would drastically enhance an already fun game, and would result in it remaining on our phone for many more years to come. Therefore we urge the developers to consider implementing this addition, or lest let this suggestion rot away in Apples endless run of unread user reviews. Thank you.
Game not giving us duet skin even though we own and play duet.
This is a great game that we recommend to anybody whos ready to play for 5 hours without realizing it. To people who say that every time you play, you use up cake, please try the FREE surf solo option. Overall , this game is very good and deserves more attention.
Ill start off with the cons. 1) the game is very basic. And thats pretty much it. Pros: 1) simplistic and addictive 2) visually pleasing 3) good cosmetics, mixed in with minor changes between each skin so that you can play based off stats or visuals 4) great core game along with 3 other modes 5) good music 6) the time rewind ability is creative and fun to toy around with 7) beautiful loading screen art.
Meanwhile vanamelon melon is-held hostage by the lemon minions Chloe has to save vanamelon.
All we have to say about this app is that we think its great. One of our favorites. Although we just wish it werent so hard to get the cakes. Maybe have them move a little less.
This game is good and we give it 4 stars because it is entertaining and can give you something to do but there are some problems.
Grinding planets without landing doesn't work and is impossible to get other than that great game.
The game is a great way to pass time and have fun.It has pets, skins and it also has cake as currency.Time Surfer is one of the best games Ive kept on our phone, other than that this game is great to pass TIME with.You guys see what we did there:)………Well that was a tremendously horrid pun, and thats probably why we dont have friends:(.
We think this game is great but it needs more levels. It needs more levels because if it did, then it would DEFINITELY be a better game. Overall this game is amazing.
Its been a ton of fun so far, but theres one achievement that it wont let us get and its the Grind 2 planets without landing and Ive done it at least 20x and still havent got it even though Ive done the exact thing each time.
Wonderfully geeky; perfect for our taste. Never change it.
This game is simple fun and overall one of the better endless runner games. The feature of rewinding time without costing you a rare game item or real money is nice and we also like how you cant just spam it. It's one downside is the missions. Some of them are a fun challenge others are easy but still fun. But others are down right impossible. We remember being stuck on a single mission for a week. Other than that it's a good game that deserves more attention.
Really fun and doesn't feel so invasive like a lot of other games.
This game is fantasticly amazingly ballzy game ever.
It very fine and you can spend time when you are bored :D.
This game is awesome and helps pass the time when your bored.
Love this game doesn't have any real issues we just love this game it worth it we recommend this game one hundred percent it's addictive and fun but we wouldn't spend money on it.
We love the Doctor Who Tardis you can get its awesome. We hope they add more things to use.
Great time killer to sit back and play while listening to music. 5/5 we would rate higher but we're not allowed.
Lots of fun when you're standing around waiting. Buy it.
We like how this game is challenging and easy to play it's like it's was made for us Diwali Dili Millie.
Im like going all over there galaxy and when we die we get to come back to life or respawn back and play 5rating for us.
We've been playing this game since we got it and it is a lot of fun, though we think it could use some updates (more trails, characters etc.). We also think there should be a time trial or zen mode that sees how far you can go in X amount of time.
This game is beyond fantastic! No ads popping up, no crashes, and most importantly no boredom! Time Surfer is an absolutely fun game with great music and nice retro visuals and it's just awesome!! A great game with absolutely nothing wrong with it? It's right here.
This game is so legit and addicting we never stop playing its really fun and thank u guys for making this game hope y'all make more.
Its a great game to play to past the time.
We generally don't write reviews but this game deserves it. Fantastic graphics easy concept. It reminds us of sonic and that just puts us in a happy place. We've only played 3 times so far and have improved each time growing more and more delighted thanks to the game makers. Is is a good one.
This game, in all its colorful glory, derives much of its playability from its simple design. Every replay is a rewarding experience as the player has the chance to build their grinding and time-reversal skills; all while collecting delicious loot along the way. (Think Prince of Persia on mushrooms w/ surfing.) Uno de los mejor videojuegos en la tienda de iPhone. Hace una semana desde empec jugarlo y no puedo terminar.
The app is a great way to revive the hill-type endless runner games. It was great execution even without the rewind feature. It feels accomplishing to complete the missions, without you getting frustrated. The rewind feature is great for a game like this where you can't see ahead of you and makes you feel like it's not all your fault if you die. It's fault if you run out of crystals, so you have nothing to complain about. The app is great and we would recommend it to anyone.
If you like simple, two-button arcade style games, then you'll want to check out Time Surfer. It's Tiny Wings on steroids, and yet it's much more than that. With the ability to rewind time and retry areas that didn't go so well (provided you have enough energy to spare), it definitely adds new strategy to the game. Add in all the power ups and pickups, as well as the unlockables, and you're in for a good time.
This game is actually really fun and addictive.
As a brony we enjoyed the hidden references :P you get a cookie.
