Love this classic game but the controls are horrible. You have to be incredibly precise and constantly keep your eyes on the controls in order to play the game successfully. Then the buttons to shoot at the ground are finicky. Don't always work. It's really frustrating. Pushed through the irritating controls though and level 64 is unbeatable! Ugh! Someone fix this game...
★★☆☆☆Not for iOS
Am a fan of Load Runner, but the controls make it impossible to play. Constant miscues with the thumb controls causes a lot of untimely deaths in the game. Bought it, just deleted it ... Unfortunate.
★★☆☆☆Directional control not very good
Hard to move the little guy around accurately and end up dying a lot because can move the guy some times. It does play exactly how I remember with all the loopholes the chasers had with the original. If the directional controller was better this would be awesome!!! Mildly disappointed as I’ve been looking for this game for years. Played it all the time as a kid. Bummer this isn’t working very well for me.
★★★★★Better than the original
This was the best game I ever played on the iPhone. There are no ads, no in app purchases, and you are given unlimited lives to complete all levels. I never completed all the levels on my Commodore 64 back in 1984, but was able to in this game. Controls were hard at first, but I got used to them in time. We’ll worth the $2.99 I spent.
★★★★★Controls work for me! And sweet nostalgia!
I saw several complaints about the controls in some of the reviews but they aren’t a problem for me! And I’m using an iPhone SE with a really small screen. Which is just to say, hours of nostalgic good times are on their way!
