Probably the best iPhone game ever. Sure it costs 4.99 but there are no IAP or ads. Relaxing game with intuitive interface, easy controls, beautiful soundtrack, and beautiful graphics. Only a couple suggestions: 1. Either make items in the Workshop cheaper or add a “coin multiplier” item. This would be a gold star which would spawn like magnets or feathers, and maybe could multiply your coins for a duration. The duration could be upgraded in the shop. These would make the process of getting items cheaper, as it can be kind of annoying to grind for 20 minutes for a helmet that you would waste within the next 5 minutes. 2. Give Izel more special items than just a rocket snowboard. The character says she has a “few special prototypes” but in-game there is only one unique item. 3. Fix some visual bugs. Sometimes, when crashing at high speeds, the character seems to freeze and hover a couple feet above the ground, which looks really weird. Other than these suggestions I think you have created a truly beautiful game. Keep up the good work Snowman!
I LOVE this game! It’s pretty addicting but not so much that you spend ALL of your time on your phone. First I would like to say that the coloring and animation is beautiful, and second I LOVE that this game changes from dawn, to evening, to dusk, to night the way it does, it’s great! I also love the changes in weather and scenery. The power ups and store upgrades are nice and this game gives you a great sense of progress. The different challenges for each level are great too. Overall this game is a great way to pass the time in a fun way. #BUT#, one thing that I would REALLY like to be changed is that there’s NO sense of CHARACTERIZATION! Which can be VERY important in games. For starters you could have the option for a female character for all the girls out there who already have or want to have this game. And then maybe different clothing items, skis, hair types, basically being able to make your own unique character. I would LOVE that, and so would many other people. It would also be AMAZING to have ur own HOUSE! Many people, including me, would love to be able to design and decorate their own house at the top of the mountain in the home screen. Maybe there could ALSO be a designable stable for the LAMAS! Where u could name and change the way your lamas look! That would be SO COOL! So PLEASE! I’m begging YOU! Make the AWESOME characterization changes! EVERYONE loves when they have a game that they can REALLY make THEIR OWN! If you’re thinking about getting this game, GET IT! And if you’re one of the game makers or editors of this game, MAKE THESE CHANGES! PLEASE! If you get this game I hope you enjoy it as much as I have!
I’ve seen a couple reviews about the wingsuit activating and deactivating randomly. Let’s clear that up. The wingsuit is toggled through 3D Touch, so when you press hard on the screen it toggles it. There’s also a setting under Settings to turn this behavior off. There will also be a button on the right side of the screen that also toggles it, so turning off the setting will not stop you from using the wingsuit. (The wingsuit is available after level 30, so if the setting isn’t there when you start, maybe it’ll appear once you unlock the wingsuit.) I wish Snowman would reply to the reviews to clear their name, but it doesn’t look like that will happen. That being said, of course I think Alto’s Adventure is a beautiful game. I’m not usually very fond of arcade-like games, but this one has stuck with me for a long time. You’ve probably already heard of the graphics/artwork. It’s also a well-polished game and feels good to play, especially with friends. Look out for new games by Snowman because the previews on their website look good. Development for those games was probably funded by this game’s sales.
