Customer Reviews

Would be awesome if... (3 stars)
My 3 yr old daughter absolutely live this app...when it works. So full of bugs! Just spent money on the new Deep Freeze and we haven't been able to try it at all because it won't work. Real disappointment because it really makes my daughter happy when it works. Please fix right away - now you're taking money so it really should be working, don't ya think??

Great! (5 stars)
Long car trips + iPod touch + 5 year old = peace and quiet. My daughter loves this game and the update today was perfect timing. Thanks!

Huge let down! (2 stars)
My kids were so excited about this game when it came out! They couldn't wait for all of the upgrades. Unfortunately all of the upgrades cost money inside the app. So since we have multiple iPods I would have to pay per iPod for each game! Usually in app purchases aren't saved once they get removed from a device, so I refuse to spend the money bc my kids' iPods are only 8g and we change their games and movies in and out on a regular basis!
