MORE DUMB WAYS TO DIE?!🥳🤩

This game series literally was my childhood, I’ve been play these games forever, and now they have added another great game! So far I’ve completed tumble fields and it’s great 👍! I like how it’s like the first game where you can buy different characters. I love the fact that there is an infinite amount of mini games too! For instance I haven’t even fully played all the mini games in tumble fields when I finished it and unblocked more! When I saw the list of the new games it was soooooo long! I just kept scrolling and scrolling. There were so many. It has its normal great graphics too. Of course like every game you are gonna encounter ads, the thing is how many ads? I’m this game they only really make you see an ad after you finish a mini game (like every 4 mini games they show one) or after you die three times. So far it’s a great game! 🥳

Wait this isn’t a remake?

Honestly this feels more like a remake of the first game with how many rehashed micro games this game has. the micro transactions and ads are kinda annoying, and what’s with mentioning tiktok twice!? I haven’t seen a SINGLE tiktok compilation or ANYONE mentioning this series. Look I like that this is supposed to be a return to form, but this game is pretty underwhelming with the remake but not remake feeling. I would had put more effort into this instead of those hyper casual junk food games and a NFT project!? Have you fallen that far?! You know that nfts have became irrelevant, the market has crashed, ruined the reputation of many companies, and wasted everyone’s time and money while killing the planet in the process. You could be making your old games better, dumb ways to die 2 has been broken on phones for what I assume for a while, I doubt I’ll be able to like this series intentionally ever again if this mid tier game will become the norm, I want improvement but I don’t think your greed and pride with your series becoming a “TikTok sensation” will allow that. Anyway four stars 😊for decent gaming I guess.

READ THIS BEFORE YOU PLAY!

I think that the game is really cool and good for entertainment, but I have one glitch that is annoying me. Basically when I lose, I get to claim the coins to build, right? Sometimes it’s stuck when I claim the money and I either need to exit the game and go back in, but other times I click too much times to exit so it immediately brings me back to play. 👍overall, it’s funny and I love how it gets faster and faster every time when you finish a round. It makes it more challenging! 5 out of 5 for me! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

I have only played for a bit and I think it is a good game.

I didn’t like Dumb Ways to Die 3. Only 7 mini games and the whole thing with repairing buildings wasn’t fun. Also making the graphics 3D just felt weird. The first two games were really fun and I was excited when I heard about the 3rd but then I played it. You came back with this one! The ads are a complaint but honestly what mobile game doesn’t have ads? Very few is the answer. Also I saw another review saying that some beans like Bungle, the guy who hid in a dryer, weren’t unlock able, but nothing an update won’t fix. With how bad the previous game was, I’m happy with this one.

Great, one problem

I love this game, brings back so many memories of playing the original with friends and comparing high scores. I love seeing mini games like flick the piranhas and tap the screen to put out the fire again. But my favorite character in this series has always been Dummkopf, ya know, the “Get your toast out with a fork guy” so yeah of course I built up gems to buy him as soon as possible, and I did, but he specifically can be a bit unplayable. His ability lets him have a chance of surviving death after failing, but whenever that does happen, the next time I fail the game freezes. Please fix this, I just wanna play my toasty boy!

Great but a few bugs

This game is fun, and stays true to the original DWTD game, which is amazing. The only thing is sometimes it randomly crashes without warning, and sometimes makes you randomly lose one or two lives (or all of them if you’re super unlucky) which is a little annoying but it’s fine. Also sometimes the instructions don’t show up which is kinda hard when you’re doing a mini game you’ve never done before. Overall though, it’s really fun, I love the little easter eggs and interface, and for a train company you did a great job.

Is a great title but……

Overall, I like this game a lot, it is nice to go back to basics and make a Warioware style game for it once again, but I did notice a few problems even without much progression: -THE ADS! There are random intrusive ads that pop up during the gameplay itself, which can get very annoying for players (as it always is). It probably makes more sense to play those when all lives are lost. -Some of the mini games are less responsive than they should be, I keep losing lives to them, the ones I found are: -Zany’s hang glider mini game -Numskull’s mine mini game -Dunce’s fill in the brain minigame -Hold the marshmallows minigame -Dippy’s flick minigame -Dimwit’s screw minigame, sometimes Overall, if you can make ads not pop up during the gameplay itself AND fix the less responsive minigames, that would be great. I would give it 5 stars when those issues are fixed. Still, it’s a solid game worth checking out.

Decent but needs improvements

The game is fun but definitely needs some improvements. Some mini games need fixing such as the tilting ones and flicking ones. Sometimes during the tilting mini games I fail instantly because my phone is slightly tilted when it starts and I fail and during the fl flicking ones, I have to try multiple times, and even then it doesn’t register and I fail. The amount of ads is also absurd. I would understand getting an ad after every time you finish all three lives but during mini games is absolutely absurd needs to be turned down.
