Very Nostalgic
Sun Feb 12 2023 ChLoEeEEeE12345This game is trending on TikTok so I thought I might try it (well at least the song.) It bring back a lot of good memories of me and my brothers playing this. Going into the game I found it’s not as entertaining as it used to be and some of the games are very short. However, I have a small attention span so if whoever is reading this also does, this game is a good one to try out. I find that the ads are a little stretched out. I tried skipping using the 2 arrows that kinda look like this >>. However, when I did it told me to wait another 5 seconds on the new ad. Then I clicked it once it was done and it did it again. I get I skipped the ad but it was very stretched out. Ads are more often then I would like but that’s for a lot of games. Other than that dumb ways to die is very nostalgic and I love to play this game. It fits a large age group which I can appreciate. That’s all I have. I hope you guys enjoy this game just as much as I do. Have a great day!
It’s a mini-masterpiece
Tue Sep 16 2025 Alex White, the GreatPlayed this game and the second one soooo much years ago. Rewatched the original video recently and remembered how good the games were too. And yeah, it’s honestly better than I remember. There’s more content than there used to be and it’s awesome to see the first game in such good condition compared to when I first experienced it. My one and only critique isn’t even entirely the ads, it’s more so that the game is free to download but in reality to play without silly interruption is to pay for no ads. It’s cheap and honestly worth doing, but I’d rather pay 3.99 upfront to download the game rather than have to pay for no ads after trying to get past my first run on the minigames. I don’t hold it against the game too much because it’s super common in mobile games like this anyway.
Yeah, Dumb Ways to Die is a mini-masterpiece. Its games are simple but fun, and while they increase in difficulty, you begin to learn the ropes of each game and how to consistently beat them. Some of these games I thought were broken at first, but I actually was able to learn those standout minigames and continuously out-do myself more with each run. Easily a favorite mobile game of mine, and the song still slaps. When I’m mostly done with this game, I guess I’ll move onto the sequel. 🚬🪨
Amazing game but to many ads
Mon Sep 03 2018 Pigdog16I have had this game forever and remember listening to the dump ways to die song over and over with my cousins and playing constantly to see who could get the best score. I had always had the app on an old iPad that couldn’t update apps so, I always had the same version of the app. I recently got a new phone and was trying to find all the apps that I liked to download and found this app. I was really exited because I heard of all the new updates such as, build a bean, more ways to die😂, daily challenges, and being able to practice different challenges. But with the this new update came sooooooo many ads! Every time you get three tombstones and “die” there’s an ad! Sometimes once you get all three tombstones and “die” they will give you an option to get another life by watching an ad. I will usually skip it but then when I press play again there’s an ad! So what’s the point of watching the ad in the first place! You’re just going to watch one after! Overall this app is really fun, probably one of my favorite apps but these ads are just letting me down.
Forced ads ruined the game
Sat Feb 25 2023 Not too bad so far.I recently downloaded this new game app that I was really excited to try out. However, my experience with it has been seriously hampered by the overwhelming number of forced advertisements. I understand that ads are necessary to support the app, but this game takes it to a whole new level.
There are so many ads that they disrupt the flow of the game and make it practically unplayable. It's frustrating to be in the middle of a level and suddenly be forced to watch a 30-second ad that you can't skip. And to make matters worse, some of these advertisements are not safe for children. I wouldn't want my little one to stumble upon one of these ads while playing the game.
Overall, the gameplay itself is enjoyable, but the excessive ads ruin the experience. It's a shame because I really wanted to like this app, but I don't think I'll be keeping it on my phone for much longer. If the developers can find a way to reduce the number of ads and ensure that all of them are appropriate for all ages, I would definitely reconsider. But until then, I can't recommend this app to anyone who wants to actually enjoy playing games on their phone.
People complaining about ads…listen up
Sat May 03 2025 Fenrir OðinsbaneIn every free to download game with IAPs, there are always people complaining that the game has too many ads, is hard to play without paying, etc. Guess what?? Game developers have to feed their families and the company has to turn a profit or else why would they even bother?
Almost EVERY game has a reasonable “NO ADS” IAP which is totally worth it if you enjoy the gameplay. I don’t mind paying a few bucks to get rid of ads. And new content (DLC) or gameplay is ok to pay for too, if I enjoy what I’ve played so far.
True, far too many games push you to buy gems just to play the game without getting totally hit by a paywall and I just avoid those. They start out friendly but they inevitably get greedy and make the IAP costs ridiculous. But a one-time fee to get rid of ads? C’mon people, don’t be morons. If you hate ads that much, pay a little money! It’s not nuclear fusion engineering.
Nostalgic and Fun
Fri Jun 17 2022 CAUTIONartist in trainingI used to love playing this game on my cousins phone whenever we visited them, and since they live far I haven’t seen them In awhile so I forgot about it, though the catchy theme song would be in my head randomly.
I met my cousins again after a year or two and was reminded of this game, so I downloaded it. It brings back a ton of memories and I like it more than I actually thought I would !
I’ll admit some of the challenges are a bit easy, but it’s geared towards younger kids so that’s why. It keeps me pretty entertained and I like the animations. I recommend getting it for when you’re bored or are in the mood to play.
Some people are annoyed by the amount of ads played, which I normally am too and delete apps all the time because there were just too many annoying ads. While there are frequent ads, I understand that it’s one of the only ways this game makes any money, and I enjoy the game enough to endure the ads. You can also pay for a no-ad package if you like. It really depends on your preference and if your willing to watch a couple ads in between challenges ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyways I'd recommend this game to anyone interested and I'm giving it 5 stars, but of course it's really up to you but I'd try it out cuz no harm in trying, right ? :))
(Apologies for a long review but I felt like sharing so yEaH)
If You Are Downloading For The First Time, Please Read!
Sun Nov 17 2019 Sooooo impressedThis game is astounding. AWESOME!! STUPENDOUS!! It's an amazing game, and stress relieving! This game, like many of the other reviews say, it also makes you think! The only downside is, is that younger audiences could/will be disturbed by this game. Basically, the point of the game is to keep from dying. You get three lives, and there are several fun levels to play in. However, there is blood, head decapitation, showing of bones, fish trying to bite private parts, sewing wounds shut, killing wasps, serial killers, being hit by vehicles, being electrocuted, and more things like that. I do not recommend this game for people who are sensitive to the topics above. Otherwise, the game is hilarious! I, for one, am not sensitive whatsoever and adore this game! I do wish that You could play all levels when practicing without having to pay earned coins, but other than that, this game couldn't be better!

Good game but...
Fri Jun 05 2020 BloodWolf27This game came out in 2012 and my friend showed it to me. I thought it was funny and interesting so I downloaded it. Back then there were no ads on it at all and it was so much fun. I could just play and play. Now every time I play and quit a game there is an ad. I do anything on it and I get ads. Also I get some of the mini games are sensitive but the ones that are easy to figure out and do however make it to where you tilt and it doesn’t work or I swipe and it doesn’t do anything. I’ve played this game so many times and I know that I’m capable of doing it but when I wipe coming off the screen and it doesn’t do anything where I’m swiping my hardest and nothing works then something needs to be done. I love the dumb ways to die games but something needs to be done. I get updates need to happen but can’t things be updated without the use of ads every second. Bring back the 2012 version with the same amount of mini games.
