Great game, but need a few things...
Tue Mar 31 2020 dobbermeisterI love this game. I would say that in this category of gaming: touch sensetivity, memorization, and challenging gameplay, you are second to geometry dash, but that is only because of two things. The first thing isn't that major. Robtop took the time to make their game have so much more gameplay. You make new levels all the time, which is great, but you have to watch a video, or use the keys to permanently unlock the level, which gets really annoying, because after you beat all the levels you can, there are so many more to play, but you can't play them with out watching a video. In the 3.99 kit, I would replace that with the unlimited balls upgrade. Which brings me to the second problem.
One of, if not the main reason geometry dash is better than rolling sky is because you don't have to wait, or watch a video after you run out of "balls." In geometry dash, you get to play until you get bored, without having to wait for like three or four minutes to play again after losing 10 times.
So those are my two requests. 1) remove the unlimited balls as an add on purchase, so the people who want to get really good at the game, but don't mind the adds can just keep practicing. Second, replace the unlimited balls add on purchase with a full access to every level. That's all you need to do to get this game better than geometry dash. Other than those two problems, great game. Oh and do something about the lag.
One of the best games i ever played
Sat Jun 03 2023 di oI am a pro gamer and out of all the games i have ever played, none of them is like this one. First of all, the music is AMAZING I like it that it has a lot of levels (Some like the 5* levels are really hard, i only beat Cube) Other games that has good music is Outer wilds and Pinout as well has Dancing line. Second of all, i have played this since i was 3 years old on my ipad, and, although i deleted it a bunch of times, This game has evolved until the Monster city update. When the game haven't updates in 2 years i was very sad but i kept playing and playing because it gave me a lot of time to beat all the levels including the VERY hard level Cube. But even though people are losing hope i was one of the few who still believe in the game. Finally on this game’s fandom wiki, i saw something that said “Rolling sky is coming back!” And sure enough, it was back with Goblin city! At time of writing the game is on the “Rabbit 2023” level, and i can’t wait to see what comes next. (P.S. thanks for reading to the end)
(Update: 3 new levels?! Seriously?! One of those levels is located in the “Fanmade” page and it reminded me that me and whole lot of people want a level maker here! It would me nice if you made a Dancing line one to. (Yet another update: YES!!! I have waited for many years and now you finally brought back forest! Thank you for bringing back forest after all these years cheetah mobile!
I preferred it before the update

Well...
Fri Sep 18 2020 TylerPlaysFortnite237Hello, just your average 13 year old here. I came back to this game for a taste of nostalgia to see what has changed and well, a ton. This was legitimately my favorite game back then. I would play this all the time. I’m back here again, a while later to see that well... not so much is good anymore. It’s just not the same. And I get that some of the levels were removed. That’s disappointing. Also the fact that my favorite level, e-labyrinth, which I mastered and played all the time.m, randomly locked itself and it costed money to get it back. What the heck? I also wonder why. Just why. WHY does all of the new levels cost money? These levels used to be free! Even with the keys, i didn’t mind it. But now.. all of the levels cost money and it seems like you guys over at cheetah aren’t doing to swell. I also came back to this review section just to see a comment I was about to post about how much I loved this game years ago. I just wish.. the old rolling sky came back. I don’t like this game anymore because they ruined it in so many ways, and let down so many people, it’s ridiculous. I used to be a pro at the game until they added extremely hard levels I absolutely couldn’t beat. Somehow I did beat 3rd birthday and 4th birthday. Also one final thing, I noticed you guys haven’t updated in a while, and I see that well... the game must be coming to an end. And the other games too. And well, I just want to say... goodbye..
Nearly Unplayable (new users - please read)
Sat Jun 01 2019 Ben_MorlanWith the amount of ads the game has, this game is close to unplayable. There are ads in nearly every conceivable point in the game, for when you crash, to simply going to a new level. Sometimes when I click off the ad, it sends me to the app store (since the ads often are of App Store games), and occasionally (not often), it makes me watch another ad right after that. These ads are usually 30 seconds long, and you can’t skip them.
I first downloaded the game in 2016, the first year it came out. I played it a lot, and throughly enjoyed it. There were very little ads, and the interface was simple and easy to navigate and understand. Eventually though, I stopped playing the game, but got into it again recently. What struck me as the most annoying is the amount of ads and the completely changed interface. The changed interface doesn’t make it too easy for players like me to get back into the game, especially since it reset my progress, but i find the amount of ads it includes to be the most annoying.
I understand the needs to put ads in the game, but this amount is extremely excessive. It starts to make the game less enjoyable and more frustrating than anything else.
The game is really fun overall and I do recommend downloading it, but I do hope the amount of ads in the game is greatly reduced in future releases.
What went wrong?
Tue Jun 02 2020 Sarusan21How do you do, readers. This is from a 10-year old, and I would like to say this, like all the other people who wrote a review, what went wrong? This game for me, used to be the place that made me smile sometimes, and enjoy apps like this. Probably downloaded this on IOS, and this game was freakishly outstanding. 6-year old me would ask one of my parents if I could play on their phone just to get back to Rolling Sky. Few years later I decided to get a taste of nostalgia and I redownloaded Rolling Sky. As soon as it gets past the company name stuff, it immediately starts a level. I of course play it, and a few levels later, it takes me to the very first level that came out. And even though it explained the tutorial, it still explains!
This is a good game, and most of the good levels from the older updates aren’t here with us anymore. And it really bothers me. Fans like those who wrote reviews have similar opinions, so for me, if you are reading this, editor or not, please know that the Rolling Sky you are playing, isn’t the same anymore, it doesn’t some of the original, like Labyrinth, which I don’t remember playing because it’s been so long since I’ve played. Once again, thank you for reading, if you did read.
(Edited: I forgot to mention this one complaint, I have watched the same stupid advertisement more than three times!!! MORE THAN THREE TIMES!!!)
Too many ads >_>
Tue Jul 14 2020 iahekqjeualfosnekwpduaigxmelqwI remember when I was a kid I was always get on to play rolling sky. It was so much fun with all the music and hard levels. Now I am playing once again. When I played around 8 years old there weren’t many ads, but now there’s an ad every time I die in the game. It gets very annoying to the point I don’t even want to play anymore! Over all the game is so much fun. Just maybe remove some of the ads? Also why did you remove some levels? Now we have to buy something to play a level. I have read some other reviews sorta complaining about the same things I am, but what I’m weirded out by is this one review written by an 8 year old. It was basically about pennywise showing up on his/her screen saying things that they were doing. He/she said they think they were being watched. In all my years of playing this game I can confirm that never have I ever had that happen to me. It is possible that it actually did happen, but something tells me they were just searching for attention. I don’t get why an 8 year old is writing a review on here, but ok..
This is all I have to say here :)
Thanks if you read this person/developer(s)
Why did they change it!?
Wed Mar 18 2020 Madeline Hatter MLBI have had this game pretty much since it came out. I loved the concept and the design. I would play Rolling Sky for hours. One of my favorite levels was Forest. Last year, they starting changing the layout of the game interface. I was like, oh, okay. But then they put sections and rated the difficulty of the levels. This made a lot of my friends and I feel bad when we couldn’t pass a level. Even so, I still really liked this game and continued to play.
Then things really started to change. Way more levels were being added. First I liked this because I had played most of the levels already. But when more levels started coming out, I was really disappointed. They didn’t seem as good as the originals plus the artwork and detail in these new levels weren’t very good. Levels were also deleted! Originals like Forest and Labyrinth were deleted from the level choices. Why? They were really good levels with a ton of hard work put in to them.
A year ago, I would have given this app five stars. Then, it was an amazing app with great graphics and a really nice concept. Now, it no longer the game that I loved so much and would spend hours playing. Now, I only play every once in awhile. I really hope that the old levels will be brought back and that the new levels are improved.
This game is a staple in mobile game history
Sun Oct 04 2020 👾🤟🏿🌎So I started to play this game in the first year of it’s existence, 2016. The first levels were a introduction to what we have this year. The original levels were perfectly balanced and even though the visuals didn’t look stunning, for unity’s sake and that this was in 2016, I am impressed with what you guys have made. Fast forward 3 years later and I am just dazzled with what has happened in a spam of a year and honestly I was happy that you guys have improved. Then we are at the present day. The levels are in collections and having (most of the time) a easier level every time you guys released a new and hard level, it could introduce beginners to a brand new theme without have to suffer a extremely hard level. I really hope you guys are working in the 5th anniversary because I think it’s right around the corner. Also I want to say that the sequel, is more like walking sky but I’ll get in that another time. You guys have made a game that will go down in mobile game history! It’s a shame that the sequel is bad but don’t get disappointed, it has its up and downs. Hope you guys are working a lot on this game and keep on the good work Cheetah Mobile!
Cool game. Small problems.
Sat Aug 01 2020 GameingGirl1110This game is really fun. I've been playing for years! I really love the content this game adds. I love the amount of levels that you can choose from. I hate the fact that in some of the levels after the first group of levels, you have to get the level by watching an add temporally or permanently by paying. I hate having to do this and I like to play this game when the internet gets cut off or I'm somewhere without internet but the fact that I need internet to get the challenging levels is really annoying. And I won't be paying either. I also don't like how you need to have a specific amount of balls. It ruins the game and makes it so you don't wanna play it anymore. Please make it so you can have an infinite amount of balls without paying. I get that you need money but the amount of ads that pop up every time I die (which is often in the challenging levels) is CRAZY! I can't enjoy the game watching ads about weight loss, or other games, or gambling or all that stuff. It makes me hate the game. As a matter of fact, I quit the game for 5 months because of the amount of ads and eventually came back. This game is one of my favorites and the way it is acting is starting to make me loose my hopes on this game. Thanks for understanding. Please fix this! ❤️
