Bonkheads HD App Reviews

Blast from the past

This was my all time favourite game as a kid. I must have played it every day! Imagine the look of child-like wonder on my face when this came up on appshopper. I couldnt ask for anything more! Well I will just keep waiting on ports of Treasure mathstorm and Treasure cove! UPDATE UPDATE: Thanks for the update! Its very much appreciated. There is an alternate control scheme which is nice!

No Sound on IPhone 6plus

Pretty choked, :/

Thanks for bringing a great classic back to life

Awesome, controls take a little time in getting used to, but thats mainly because Im so used to using a keyboard. One thing, why no rat at the Game Over screen like the original? He had a much better laugh. Oh well- great Job on the improved graphics, eagerly awaiting the OS X version

Just like old times

This app is probably better On iPad than the iphone, because you cant see part of the screen sometimes when you have your fingers on the screen. The controls are fine after about 2 minutes of play, you get used to them easily. If you grew up playing bonkheads like me or if youre looking for a fun way to waste time, this classic is a must-have :)

Good Game, Bug Found

Only the two player version or Help work! Buttons are all screwed up. I found the bug that causes this. The app switching button must be on the right. If it is on the left, my problem appears. Fun game now!

Dont buy for iPhone

Loved this game on the Mac years ago, but the interface for iPhone is poor at best. The developer chose to build controls that overlay the bottom HUD, and worse, theyre too short/small to be effective. Might be a solid game for iPad with its extra real estate, but Id like my money back after trying it on iPhone. Thumbs down.

CONTROLS ARE DIFFICULT TO USE

Thanks for developing an iPad version of Bonkheads! I, too, loved the Mac version of this game and have missed playing it, but find the touch controls both virtual and button, are difficult to manipulate. Maybe Im lacking the coordination skills, but I am just not able to move and jump successfully! Poor Crag is all over the place and jumping directly into those pesky raccoons (cant get past them!).

Classic Mac game.

Given the circumstances to work with- great job. I agree that it is probably better on the iPad, but I am enjoying myself on the iPhone. It takes a little getting used to but I cant wait to beat it.

Not worth $3 for the multi

Bought it for the same device multi and not worth it. Fun for a minute but unpolished and buggy. Maybe worth it at $1 but maybe not even then

Awesome!!!!

The controls do take a while to master, but then it becomes really easy!! I have had such a great time playing this gems again! It was my favorite as a kid!! :) totally worth the money!!!

Awesome HD app beautiful controls

I freaked out when I already downloaded the app and was reading the reviews. I started playing the game and thought the controls were terrible until 30seconds later when I noticed they are extremely easy to use. You do not have to have your thumbs in one spot for the controls. Your left thumb guides the direction of the character. Your left controls the jumping. Just keep your thumbs out of the way and in the corners of the screen and you shouldnt have any problems. You dont have to touch the character to play the game. In essence the controls are invisible so you have more playing room.

RESTART BUTTON

I love this game so much! I grew up playing it and when I found out it was an app I almost wet my pants I was so excited! Everything is just how i remembered it too. The controls are a little hard when just starting but Im at level 124 and I love it! BUT I only am giving it 3stars because it desperately needs a "restart the level" button. If I die 4 times and I know I can do better, all I want to do is hit pause, then restart level! Please include in the next upgrade! Thanks for the great game!

Great game

I love this game so much. Its a part of my childhood but please put a restart button. Its a pain to have to pause, exit game, listen to evil laughter lol, and then select the level all over again. Also, an online co-op game would be perfect. The screen is a bit small on the 2 player and it would be awesome to play with friends that have this game too.

Horrible Production of a Formerly Great Game :(

Yes, the old Bonkheads was an amazing game. Seems these people just slapped a crappy control mechanism on an iPhone/ iPad version and thought they would get a bunch of idiots to pay $2.99 for it. Guess Im one of those idiots. Pressure the company to release on a platform that can support a game like this. It is literally unplayable in its current form :(

Id give it zero stars if I could

Controls are clunky. Frustrating and nearly impossible to play. Please update this with a new interface or something. I know many people may have some nostalgic ties to this game like I do, but its not made well at all. Dont waste your money...

DO NOT PURCHASE THIS!!!!!

I just wasted $2.99 the game doesnt work
