"We're sorry your unhappy with our subscription model" will be their lame response to anyone mentioning the oddity to a subscription being necessary to play a game that died over 10 years ago. Good to see it back but with the obnoxious subscription being made a necessity to play the game, I decided to just download the original apk from 2014 despite its occasional bugs.

Thanks for the review Mason, we try to avoid lame responses, though it's also important for us to collect and acknowledge all reviews that mention the sub and share feedback. So some responses will be quite similar.
Halfbrick+ subs are how we've been able to work with the original devs and release this premium version. Thank you for sharing!

Installed this because of the nostalgia, checked the reviews. Uninstalled it as soon as it finished downloading. Who ever came up with a ridiculously overpriced monthly subscription for this needs to do some serious thinking. But hey whatever helps you sleep at night. Edited

$3.99 a month or pay $139 for the year? To play a phone game? I remember paying $6 for this game and owning it. Too rich for my blood. I'd be happy to play with ads. But not paying monthly for a group of games. Should just be in app purchase options or a one time charge. Too bad. Used to love this game.

We're sorry to hear that you're disappointed with our subscription model.
We're always looking to improve, so we'll take your feedback into consideration. Halfbrick+ gives you access to a growing library of games, all in a premium, ad-free version. So it's more than just one game 😄

Yeah glad I still have the old app saved in my phone I immediately deleted the new version soon as I saw it say something about how to play for free! You shouldn't have to make an account to play a stupid game to pass time for 5 mins! What the hell is wrong with you people! Edited

Hey! Thanks for this review and for sharing your thoughts on Halfbrick+ - since the core of this version of the game is a part of a subscription service - we need accounts to manage that. We're working hard to continually improve Halfbrick+ and hope you'll give it a try in the future 😄

Thank you for bringing this game back, it's one of the best mobile games ever made. I would love it if you could play as the android bot from the original, but no problem if not. (Unless it's an unlock able and I just haven't unlocked it yet!)
