Samurai Jack for Negative User Reviews

No save optionThere is no option to save the game or even start again from checkpoints so you will start from the beginning every time you exit the app. Quite annoying..Version: 1.5

Poor performanceOn a MacBook Pro with M1 Pro chip it runs at less than 30 FPS on average, close to 20 or ven below. It's just unplayable. This must be due to poor optimization, as more demanding games (like Residen Evil Village) run smoothly on the same hardware.Version: 1.6

No saves?My game always fails to save, it makes me feel like I’m playing an old 64 bit game or older. I have to play the game all in one go due to this error. I love samurai Jack, and I love this game, but until you fix the save issues, it’s damn near unplayable.Version: 1.3.3

Bugs with Controller @ MacOSUsing a Playstation controller in the equip menus it freezes the game and you are unable to do anything apart from quit the entire game and restart Catalina 10.15.6 PS4 Controller [hard wired].Version: 1.2

It’s not worth itSo I was excited to get this game but then it said I can’t download it then I started to delete stuff so I can play but still it D I D N T work literally I went to 14gb of space still didn’t download so I say it takes up too much space for you to get also I payed money to get this and it didn’t work so I gave up creator please make it less space cause I’ve been trying and nothing’s working..Version: 1.4

The game crops in the screenThe game plays fine but for some reason it crops into my screen on my iPhone 14 Pro to the size of an iPhne 4 screen so it’s annoying to play anyway -.- . Pretty bad considering this is my first Apple Arcade game.Version: 1.5

PerformanceI am playing on iphone 12 man and it lags hard when there is action. Not worth. I thought apple is trying to do something here but the developers obviously don’t give any damn about game now after they got big fat cheque.Version: 1.3.2

DisappointedWon’t load past initial cut scene tried on every difficulty setting multiple times. Story recap and initial cutscene play fine sometimes audio comes up most times just a black screen.Version: 1.3

Game doesn't seem to know what kind of an interface it wantsWhen the game starts, no mouse support - okay - so I will be using the keyboard. I get into a game - surprise! You are using the mouse. Seriously- if you are going to make a game like this support the mouse for the interface for heavens sake. It really makes it hard to use, can't easily figure out half the stuff because it is so wonky..Version: 1.5

This could’ve been a perfect game.Great graphics for a mobile game. While playing it, I even thought about God of War. Developers must have tried God of War and copied some of that game. This game would be a lot better if it was more challenging and less repetitive in combats. It has some glitches that need to be fixed. This game had the potential to get 5 stars and be one of the best. I give 3.5 stars for now. I ONLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME IF YOU HAVE A CONTROLLER. It is frustrating without a controller, just don’t waste your time if you are planning to just touch the screen with your fingers..Version: 1.3

MehTen minutes into the game and you're still interrupted by tips taking you our of the immersion. The gameplay feels a bit wonky. It took me forever to realize the double arrow icon means tab (??). The art style is great as per the TV show, albeit very iPhone-game looking. I was waiting for this game but I'm a bit let down as it feel like every other mobile game out there..Version: 1.2

Saved gameMy game doesn’t save, every time I load up it says failed to save then starts from the beginning?.Version: 1.4

Wont load past the intro videoTried a few times but it won’t load past the intro video.Version: 1.3.1

It’s IghtIt’s a fun game with occasional light lags but the game never saves so I have to restart from the beginning every time. I get so close to beating the game then I fall asleep or my phone dies and I gotta start all over again.Version: 1.5

More like Battle through BugsI can’t believe this game was shipped and accepted for Apple Arcade with game breaking bugs. Avoid..Version: 1.3

Can’t Get All CollectiblesThere seems to be a glitch in the game where one area won’t let me rotate my camera in order to get one of the collectibles, and it also says that I don’t have as many as I actually do. There are 50 of the Corrupted Emperor’s Kamen medals and I collected all but one (the one that I need to rotate my camera but it can’t), but it’s telling me I’m still missing two. But when I go back to these levels to find which ones can are missing, but all are accounted for.Version: 1.6

IssuesDownloaded game to try and not been able to play as soon after opening scene it freezes on the now loading screen so that’s as far as I got which is a shame as really wanted to try game ....Version: 1.4

Too Many BugsI love the game and it’s so fun, but my game keeps on failing to save my data, it’s pretty frustrating and when I die in the game it crashes and I lose my progress please fix it I really want to play this game..Version: 1.3.3

CrashedWas playing this game on my new macbook. when i tried to leave the game my mousepaad wasnt responding and i could not go onto my desktop, i could only go onto the game where the mousepad would work. also theres no way of changing the keyboard control settings, only conroller functions.Version: 1.3.3

Great gameThis game is fantastic on iphone/ipad. However, I noticed that there is fairly frequent frame dropping on my iphone 12 pro max. I figured it would no longer be an issue on my m1 mac mini. However, upon launching the game I discovered that you can only run the game in 720p resolution. Looks absolutely terrible on a 50 inch 4k tv even with graphic settings on maximum. I can live with low resolution, but what is infinitely more disapointing is that the game is 10x more stuttery/framey than it was on iphone 12 pro max despite having far more than enough horse power to run the game. It appears to me that the game is not optimized even in the slightest for mac and the devs do not appear to have any interest in optimizing it. I would consider this an easy 4-star review, potentially even a 5-star review if the optimization was better. Gameplay is great with a controller. I use ps5 controller on mac and a backbone on iphone.Version: 1.5

Not my thingSeemed to work OK. Graphics not great and gameplay really not my sort of thing. Menus seemed very complicated and I quickly lost interest..Version: 1.3.2

Good game but had to stop playing.. invert camera pleaseThis is best played with a controller, but an invert camera option is required for players like me. I could not get through the first level. Please add this option..Version: 1.3.2

Xbox one Controller compatability is poor.The xbox one S controller doesn’t allow pressing X to interact with elements in game. Prompt appears, but button doesn’t work, just attacks..Version: 1.3.1

Won’t even let me playIt won’t even let me skip out of the story mode to let me play. Deleted..Version: 1.6

Optimisation Needed On iPhone 12/ProA seriously great third person action adventure game let down by poor performance. My first experience with the title came on an iPad Pro (2018 model) and was a great gaming experience. On my new iPhone 12 Pro, the experience is less than ideal, the game runs well for about five minutes before the A14 bionic chip is nearly on fire and the game’s frame rate tanks. I imagine the game will be updated soon to accommodate the new hardware better, but until then, 3/5.Version: 1.3.2

Controls could be betterI really want to love this game. A couple levels in and it’s great so far. Only issue I’m having is the controls. It’s very hard to control the camera angle and execute the moves I am trying to on my iPhone XS. Perhaps if I was on an iPad with a bigger screen or used a controller it would be better. However, the way it is, it’s difficult for me to be patient enough to play when it takes me twice as long as it should to navigate the area and do the things I’m trying to do..Version: 1.3

Not bad, very buggyNot a bad little game, but very buggy. If you have more than 3 enemies on the screen at a time the game drops to an unplayable FPS, even on the iPhone 12 Pro Max..Version: 1.3.3

Does not auto saveCan someone help me.Version: 1.4

Low qualityIt’s unfortunate that such amazing animation has a trash game. Controls are clunky and unresponsive, camera is glitchy, movement overall feels incredibly poor and frustrating..Version: 1.4

Good gameThe game is good the bugs that appear are game are the most crazy thing to happen you fall though floors FOUCS on things that you don’t want to FOUCS on there is a button that makes you FOUCS if I wanted to do that I would click the button you can’t unfocus with the button you stay like that and it annoying because there is other enemy's to fight and only being able to fight one while getting attacked by 50 more is dumb I literally skipped a whole level because I fell though the floors twice.Version: 1.3

Waste of time- The game shuts offI have spent time playing the game, i have the game installed on 2 brand new iPhones but it shuts off when the battle starts in the swamps with the chubby man. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game on all the devices again but it just dies regardless.Version: 1.3

Please update bugs!!Please update the bugs out I really enjoy the game when it works though.Version: 1.3

I’ve never been so frustrated with a mobile game before.I was starting to enjoy the game, for the gameplay and upgrades, but the AMOUNT of glitches and bugs that happen that involves me playing entire courses and levels, and then the game just blacks out or quits on me, is sooo frustrating. i have to wait for an upgrade just to finally beat the game, and i’m not as patient as a was at the beginning. probably deleting soon if the next update doesn’t work..Version: 1.3.1

Fun game but...Very fun game, I only played the first 10 minutes of gameplay but had to stop as the framerate was terrible. Playing on a M2 Macbook Air.Version: 1.6

Shutting downThe game plays then shuts down very annoying.Version: 1.3

This sucksI can’t even get into the game because it crashes when I do.Version: 1.4

Overheating iphone 12 ProGame looks really fun. However I can’t play as after only about a minute it starts to over heat my phone then runs at about 5fps. Was expecting this to run perfectly since I’m playing it on the brand new 12 pro..Version: 1.3.2

This is a BETA as far as I’m concernedGreat gameplay that’s plagued with sudden frame rate drops and overheats your phone like a mofo. Clearly this game wasn’t optimized and was pushed out of beta far too soon. Come on! Game is unfinished as far as I’m concerned. Please fix this game!.Version: 1.1

I got soft lockedMy kid had this to say: “l was ok with the graphics (I was expecting a game that looked a ten million movie.) but let’s get to the real problem there was a trippy room that changed and then there was a battle and finally the bug everything was see-through l walked on air as mop (mop = mom + pop) had done 2 seconds before I did and fell so did I.”.Version: 1.3.2

Game save tooGame save fail.Version: 1.5

Beware of BugsThe game is great, it brings back the nostalgic feeling of watching the shows when you were a child as well as brining the aspects that we loved from the recent final season. However, with that being said the game does experience inconvenient crashes and tends not to save your progress after the first stage. Great game, would be even better with these minor improvements. Hopefully it will be fixed with an update..Version: 1.3.1

Game won’t save progressIt’s a good game to play, I’ve enjoyed it so far. My only problem is: Not sure if this game is meant to be linked with data and wifi to save the games progress. I get so far in the game & then die only having to go back right from the beginning of the game including the Tutorials..Version: 1.4.1

Buggggg in game cant complete stageTried 10000 different ways And cant complete at caves of the ancient after fighting a flying monster + passing the arrows that shot when you step on yellow bricks. I fall into another world and i get stuck and die. Please fix the bug thx..Version: 1.3.1

Could be great...with some extra polishAs it is currently, the game has some mindless fun but really needs some extra love as far as optimization and fixing the bugs are concerned. Lots of frame drops on a 2020 iPad Pro, and as many have said bugs are not uncommon..Version: 1.3

BuggyWhen you get it to start, even setting the framerate to open rather than 60fps and lowest graphic settings, by the time you get half way through a level it slows to a crawl. Potential to be good but still way off the mark. Running on 2021 iMac Ventura with PS5 controller. Update: enitre framerate issue is related to the controller. Disable that and FPS is great but not the kind of game that is best without a game controller..Version: 1.6

GlitchIt keeps booting me out. ?.Version: 1.3

Frustrating but can be funNeat idea, but both the protagonist & the story line are WAY too serious & grim & the story scenes are way too long.. it claims that you have access to camera movement but, moment to moment that’s only true about maybe 50% of the time. It will frequently prevent you from seeing what & where you need to go, like the path in front of you, numerous attacks from behind that you can’t see, as well as from the sides, above & below, or even just being able to properly look around, which is especially difficult since the awful colouring & lighting is SUPER hard on the eyes. All the villains are bizarre, creepy & PAINfully infantile, & at one point you will come to an acid pit with large rock platforms to jump on to get to various items & power-ups, but once you do they sink immediately, & I mean IMMEDIATELY. He also will not stop moving forward when you try to stop him- when YOU stop, HE takes three more steps making it extremely difficult to maneuver him, especially during a fight or the rock platforms. Once he lands he then will step forward (without your doing) & fall off into the acid over & over & over again because this problem prevents you from being able to double jump twice in succession, you’ll be stuck. Plus, the rock platforms (or whatever they’re called) have no shading nor does any of the background- it’s all completely flat, so you can’t tell how far you have to jump (or attack or just plain continue on) so you keep missing the target. It claims that you can go & do previous levels over but if you do you’ll lose your place. Oh- & though it claims to allow you to aim your weapons, it doesn’t. There are lots of things I DO like about it, but they don’t need fixing & the creators will hopefully see this- other people will fill you in on the good stuff. Be aware that SJ uses an absolutely GARGANTUAN amount of space (even more than all the pics of my late sweet little cat), but more often than not that can equal to an awesome game. :).Version: 1.3.1

BuggyKeep falling through the scenery on the second level. Could be great! But to many bugs and bad camera angles..Version: 1.3.2

One star only because of the crashLoved it but incredibly irritating as it always crashes in the same cut scene. Needec better debugging before release.Version: 1.3.1

Camera controlsThe camera controls arent jist bad, theyre absolutely BROKEN. I cant finish this game, let alone go for the chests. In the thrid level near the beginnimg there are two chests, one you chop a tree to get to and then you jump pver a gap to get to the other one... easy stuff... except once you go over the gap the camera swings behind the character completely destroying the path I was taking and cauaing me to fall. It is NOT POSSIBLE and Its because the camera is simply BUGGED. In combat the camera will bug out and fling all over the place, which makes combos nearly impossible and I take a ton of damage. Im struggling to play this even on easy because of how broken the camera is. If I could actually SEE what youbwere doing, the game would be great. It plays like a game on the gamecube or ps2 would play. Its feels so nostalgic and honestly fun, I just wish I could see what I was doing....Version: 1.4

Apple. Stop releasing unfinished conversions.This game stinks. It could be great, it has the style and the moves and who doesn’t love Samurai Jack? Who? Apparently my new-this-year iPad Pro, which totally heats up and wrecks the battery. It isn’t a bad game, its just a bad idea to ruin your equipment by playing it. And Apple, that’s on you. Worse, this is the third game off the Arcade that is clearly not ready for play. Apple? There’s also something odd going on with some of the cutscene models. Some seriously weird jiggly cones in there. Sup with that?! Uninstalled after two levels and 40% of my battery in 20 minutes... sorry Jack, I’d hoped for better..Version: 1.3

Glitch won’t save progressI’ve been set back to beginning 4 times. Get it together or make this mess free. Apple?.Version: 1.4

Works poorly on M1 Mac MiniThis game seems like it should be pretty decent, however on my fully spec'd M1 Mac Mini it is basically unplayable due to the terrible fraterate. It feels like I'm getting 5-10 frames per second most of the time. I tried turning down the resolution and adjusting the framerate but it didn't seem to help at all. Too bad, I kinda want to play it, but in this current form it is more or less unplayable on this device..Version: 1.5

Doesn’t auto saveGreat fun game but no option to continue when I reopen the game so forced to start over every time. Pretty annoying and disappointing as it’s a beautiful looking game with great game play.Version: 1.4

The game is good but unfairSo I really like the game but even in easy mode story mode it is hard I mean I have collected and used every weapon in the game against aku but I still have never killed him and united jack and ashi It also feels like aku is impossible to beat without a gift if the gods or like 1000 haggises I bet it is basically impossible for the people in master mode but the game is still fun until you reach aku but they should really make the game more accessible too because you can’t do like any other modes without completing story mode and as I said it is kind of impossible to beat story mode because of aku and as I said you would need a weapon with inf damage of like 1000 haggis's.Version: 1.6

Save GameGreat game to play, but it won’t save the game which means you have to start from the beginning every time you decide to play the game over and over again. Which is really annoying, especially when you gone so far in the game thinking it has save the last memory of the game you left, o lot to realise that you have e to start all over again from the start. Fix the problem....!!!.Version: 1.3.3

I want to rate higher but...Major glitchy. All of my controls got shoved up into the top left corner after the first round and I couldn’t do anything but move around and die, can’t even get to a menu unless I force quit the app... loads that same way every time too... very disappointing. Now I have to start a new game and I don’t want to keep running into the same issue if I get further down the road so I might just delete. If this gets fixed, I’ll continue playing..Version: 1.3.3

Fun but has issuesReally fun at first. A bit laggy at times but not too bad. The annoying thing is that after defeating the first boss, i tried to continue but it seems stuck at that place. I reloaded it again, it keeps me there with green leaves flying around and i can’t exit to the next level. Please fix this..Version: 1.3.3

Was GreatThe sound has stopped working completely and the screen blacks out. I literally can’t play this game. All the other apps are fine..Version: 1.3.2

Beautiful graphics, horrible frame rateThis game reminds me a lot of PS2 times - it feels like it was made with passion and love to Samurai Jack story but the frame rate is horrible. I play on iPhone 12 Pro Max and frame rate goes below 10 fps sometimes, especially when there is many enemies and explosions. I hope they will fix it with an update because this shouldn’t have passed Apple’s certification..Version: 1.3.3

Cannot save progresI attempted to play this game on my 3 devices: iPhone SE 2020, Ipad 7th Gen and Apple TV 4K. The game looks stunning on each and I really want to love this game (the nostalgia is real) but unfortunately it does not save. Every time I restart the app to pick up where I left off, I am greeted with the difficulty selection followed by the first cutscene. I also noticed that when in game, if I change any settings in options, it then says “save failed”. Am I the only one with this issue?.Version: 1.4

Fun game, bad performance.First off the game is a lot of fun with addictive combat. The biggest issue is performance. While the game is nice to look at there are better looking titles graphically with far better performance available. On my XS Max most of the time it will go below 30 FPS. One level late in the game which features a lot of rain is especially choppy with frame rates in the teens that sometimes dip into single digits. The low frame rate really ruins the combat. It’s fine in smaller corridors and areas until a large amount of enemies are on screen. Open areas are by far the worst offenders. It’s an otherwise great game that needs some serious optimization..Version: 1.3

SERIOUS bug…It’s a great game and super fun, only thing is… it’s unplayable. If I die, the app crashes, nothing is saved, and the entire game starts over. ON NORMAL MODE!! I even tried switching it to easy, redownloading it, nothing’s fixed it. It’d be five stars if I could actually play more than three levels of it… I’ve played the same levels 4 times now, it’s beyond annoying. if you could look into this I’d be more than willing to adjust my review to the amount of stars it deserves..Version: 1.6

Great graphics but game doesn’t save!Played it for 30 minutes one day and went back the next and had to start over again! Reading up on this and I’ve found that many ppl are having trouble with saving their game. Not going to invest any more time into it if I can’t save my progress since I can’t go through it in one sitting….Version: 1.5

MehCan’t skip past the intro screens when prompted. Looks like a goofy game if I could get to it.Version: 1.4

Can not continue after fighting fire golemAfter fighting the fire golem boss the cutscene plays but it won’t continue the game just shuts down so I can’t play further once I go back into the game it’s back to before the fight.Version: 1.3

Doesn’t load first levelGame freezes on black screen after the first cutscene. Using an iPhone XSMax so it should work fine. Have tried restarts and reinstalling, neither have made a difference..Version: 1.1

Fun Game but has booting out issueI've only played up to two levels in and trying to continue to the 3rd level... The game just boots me out every time. It's annoying cause what I've played so far is decent, I hope someone from the development side knows of this soon....Version: 1.3

A great what ifThe game per se is great, following the steps of the samurai, unfortunately the game is a mess of glitch and so far keep crashing making the game not really enjoyable. Also, after the second map cutscenes the game just stops. It need to get fix..Version: 1.3

Barely playable on MacBook Air 2020 core i5The game itself seems to be fun to play. I like the graphics and overall style/gameplay. It is definitely much closer to mobile gaming experience than desktop. But sadly it is barely playable on my MacBook Air 2020 Core i5, 16Gb RAM. Decreased resolution to absolute minimum allowed in the game and it is still sluggish. Installed on my iPhone XR as well, it runs smoothly but I don't like how control is designed, I've seen much better in ton of other games on AppStore. AS a conclusion, I give 3 stars for design/style and gameplay in desktop version.Version: 1.3.1

Save failed budI can’t play the game as I keep getting a save failed bud where the game can’t seem to save progress. My phone has plenty of free storage..Version: 1.4.1

GlitchyWas really excited this came to Apple Arcade so I didn’t have to pick it up on console. Unfortunately it is quite buggy it seems, I’m now stuck at a part where I have fallen through the floor 3 times in a row and it’s not exactly off the beaten path it is on the main objective and it’s the only way to go. Not sure how something like this gets past QA. Other than that the game is fun, I play it on both my iPhone XR and my iPad Pro (2020) and it seems to run pretty good. Definitely recommend using a controller if possibe as I found it quite frustrating to play on the touch screen. Gameplay is overall pretty solid, the graphics are good for the style that samurai jack was, the gameplay systems are relatively in depth and it’s nice to see that on the arcade as it feels like a lot of the games released have been shallow..Version: 1.3

Screen pauseThe screen pauses at the very first mission of this game. I am playing it from iPhone 11 please fix this problem Apple..Version: 1.1

Supremely... laggyIPhone x. There’s no excuse for it being laggy as is, its not graphically intensive..Version: 1.3.1

Frame rat draps.I think my iphone 12pro may not meet the minimum requirement coz it's too laggy. 😠.Version: 1.4

ControlsNo invert control option..Version: 1.3.3

Lags just 5Min into game iphone 12The phone gets too hot to play and lags.Version: 1.3.2

Doesn’t Launch Past Start UpUnfortunately the game does not load past the developer start up pages. Trying to run it on an iPad Pro 2nd Generation. Tried multiple installs, no luck..Version: 1.3.1

Insane framerate issues M1 maxThe game is virtually unplayable on the M1 Max, the frames barely ever reach an acceptable level :(.Version: 1.6

Satisfying combo based beat em up!Never seen Samurai Jack, but love beat em ups. Great combo based gameplay, lots of variety in weapons and a level a depth to the combat system. Works best with a paired controller. Runs ok on my iPhone 7, I'm currently updating the app with the latest release and I'm hoping it improves the overall performance of the game..Version: 1.3.1

Good game, horrible portAs a huge Samurai Jack fan it is painful for me to not give this game a 5 star, but I hope this brings some attention. I have a macbook pro 16inch and I could run this game butterly smooth via steam and bootcamp (could even play at 2k resolution). However, on the mac partition the stutter is horrific, cant even pull constant 60fps on low resolution 1920x1080. It starts ok, but once there are more enemies the lag is huge. It does not even run well on the iphone 12 pro max!!.Version: 1.4

Unplayable without controllerYou CANNOT change the controls. So for Mac mice, you have no scroll wheel, so are unable to use any range weapons. So you can't get passed the 2nd level.Version: 1.4

It’s a damn shame.It drains battery life so dat you with need to have a full battery to play for 20 minutes. The controls are clunky. Jumping is a delayed nightmare and there’s a section where you need to jump a lot in succession. The camera is similar to those old ps1 games that lock and jolt to random angles that make setting anything a horrible experience. The only good thing that I can say about it is that the aesthetic of the game is superb..Version: 1.3

DAMN YOU ARCADE!!! 👹🔋Gameplay looks good but i literally only had it open for 10 mins and is already draining my battery/making my phone overheat. Shame as i’m a big fan of the tv show and was really looking forward to playing this game version! Edit: Also very glitchy when moving around :(.Version: 1.1

Fun but seems unfinishedThe game is very fun don’t get me wrong but I found areas where I could not even progress, where there where lots of bugs. I fell through the flour so many times which got really annoying. But others then that pretty fun even though the controls seem clustered on mobile, but the story is good and gameplay with a controller is pretty good. If bugs are fixed I could easily give this 5 stars..Version: 1.3
