Amazing Game, but…

This is such an amazing game but this game really needs multiplayer mode. It would add more risk to it. Who can survive the most levels, who can finish a certain amount of levels quicker, and co-op. I am sure there are other things you could do. Again, an amazing game, just needs multiplayer.

Turn off the button layouts to use it anywhere

5 stars. Using on iphone 15 pro max.

MORE LEVELS! IM ADDICTED

I play this game on a daily basis, I beat the game almost every time i play on hard mode. i’m obsessed and addicted, but PLEASE ADD MORE LEVELS! i miss the challenge.

epic game!

I really do love this game, but one thing had been bothering me since I've got a new phone: The hud clips into the bevels a bit. I know it really isn't a big deal, but my brain just instantly becomes distracted upon noticing it. (Even lost a few runs to it.) I'm on the 13 Mini , but Im not sure it this happens for any other models. Thanks!

Cool

Favorite mobile game oat, my only issue is that you can’t turn off sound effects which makes listening to anything while playing the game kinda weird

Please add cloud save

Great game!!! Just wondering, Is the bench next to the well a reference to hollow knight?

Awesome

How about a part 2 Where there are modes where you get deeper and deeper

The game that started it all.

A classic for me; the game that made me fall in love with Devolver Digital and their catalogue.

Awesome Game!!!

Super fun, hard and time consuming. Requires skill and focus. As you go further it gets harder. Boss is difficult. Best $3 spent of my life, totally worth it.

downwell is my favorite mobile game since 2015

its a game with just the right amount of depth + difficulty while having a simple premise and being easy to jump into. never gets boring and the art style is perfect.

This game has good graphics

This game have so good graphics in my opinion

nerf the bats, man

love this game. only complaint is that the bats are so annoying I could pop a blood vessel

Game is amazing! One minor problem however

I love this game, gameplay feels smooth and satisfying, and difficulty feels hard, but accomplishable. One minuscule problem is a lot of the time when I play rogue-likes/rogue-lites like this, I like to listen to a podcast in the background as I go through run after run, and turning off the excellent music is possible, but there’s no way to turn off the sound effects. I realize it would be a whole thing to go and change that now, but really my only issue with this otherwise impeccable game!

Let me turn music off

I want to listen to Spotify

Excellent Game

The best iOS game in existence, period. I’ve been playing this game regularly for about a year now and I love it more and more each time I play (still haven’t quite beaten it yet tho lol). Intuitive yet challenging, simple yet engaging. The fast pace and permadeath also work so well for a mobile game. I love this game so much. I also love just paying a flat fee and then never seeing a single ad. Such a rare and beautiful thing. Plus, I’ve played more hours and had more fun with Downwell than I

Hard but fun game

This game is very fun but also very difficult at the time of writing this review I have gotten only to 2-3 but I must say this game is not frustrating with it’s difficulty, good game worth the money

Add horizontal layout please

Great game. Pick it up.

Best game in the freaking world 🌍

This game is so good that I have nothing to say

Really good game

I really enjoy this game it’s really nice if you want a casual game really fun minor button glitches overall really good 5 stars

Very fun needs more levels possibly but mostly audio

Super fun game just let me turn off the audio for the game fully it’s very loud and I can’t listen to music and play you can turn off music but not sound affects.

Amazing!

I love rouge-likes, and Downwell is AMAZING. Love the gameplay visuals and music! Fell in love so quickly! Well done! Chefs kiss on Devolver!!!

Love this game

Absolutely love this game. One huge request, even though it’d be a little squished, is landscape mode. It’d be way easier to play if I could hold the phone sideways.

This is so good

So the very cool reference to the virtual boy is really cool

Brilliant!

One of the best mobile games! Request — haptic feedback options. Landscape mode — for when using a controller holder or Razer Kishi. iCloud saves — for example: play on the road with iPhone and pickup progress with iPad and a controller

Where’s the mute button?

This game is almost perfect, except that I can’t play music or listen to podcasts while playing. If there was a mute option I’d be in heaven.

frustratingly addictive

three dollars is nothing compared to the time that I’ve spent in this game

Awesome game

This game is amazing its worth the $3 definitely

Please add controller support

To one of the best games ever made. Would love to use my Xbox remote with iOS Downwell ✌🏻

Great game!

I love the game but honestly I would sink way more time into it if I could only turn off the sound effects so I can listen to music while I play it!

So addicting

Love this game. Have it for iOS and Switch. Only request would be a landscape mode. I know that’s a little hard to do on a phone but it’d be easier to hold the phone that way. Other than that, fantastic!

Worth every penny!

Incredible! The only thing it needs now is an endless mode where your items can stack! For example having two gem attractors would make gems come from farther away!

Looses sound when getting a call.

Looses sound when getting a call. Otherwise great game.

Almost perfect!

Two things this game needs... more styles, and an endless mode!

Needs lore

I love this game but it needs secrets and achievements, and why not a shop of cosmetics for the character that way the game it’s more interesting

Fun Gameplay

The controls for this game are very simple and the concept is straight forward. This game allows for some really fun and fast paced gameplay. It’s a great game to just pick up and play. You don’t need a block of time for it.

This game is such pure fun

This is like if mario in the 90s came to birth a child in the present.

One of the best indie moblile games

Please, just play this goddamn game I’m begging you it is worth it for just 3 dollars

A Really good game

I was watching Tamago2474 do a game show episode on this and thought it was great and it is! For some reason the music stopped for a while and then the sound effects stoped. I don’t know if anyone has a problem with that

Absolutely fantastic, one small complaint

Please update so I can turn off all sound from the game and continue listening to music/podcasts. This would truly make it perfect.

10/10

One of my all time favorite games ever and one of the few games I will buy over and over because of just how good it is. Devolver Digital really knocked it out of the park with this one.

Great Little Game

Love playing this in short bursts. Would love it come to Apple Tv

Beware - Always on Home Bar!

It was nice that this game was finally updated to the modern iPhone aspect ratio, but they really need to update it to properly dim the Home Bar.

Very fun!

I really enjoy playing this game. It is a LOT of fun! The touch screen controls are a little tough to play with but it is a blast.

Downwell

One of the highest quality mobile games I’ve ever played, got the game on Switch and then saw it on the App Store. Definitely worth the price!!!

1 Negative User Reviews for Downwell

Touchscreen controls worse than at release

Idk if iOS is updating or Downwell is but it needs some serious calibration maintenance
