Bikes Hill Reviews

by Johnahue

Voodoo’s approach to games is like an executive’s approach to film, or toys, or anything creative or fun. Who cares about innovating, who cares about what might fill the consumer with wonder or joy. Get it done and move onto the next one. Just work 100 hours a week until we end up with our own Angry Birds.

Reused assets, aggressive marketing (both of the game, and within it), a soulless cookie cutter UI and progression system. They took Tiny Wings, shifted the perspective, and replaced the soft, painted aesthetic with the same empty, eerily cheerful one they use in all their games. Oh also upgrading does absolutely nothing to the gameplay, it just makes your score at the end incrementally bigger. I saved up like 5 speed upgrades and did them all at once, nothing changed. If one of your inevitably underpaid designers reads this, find a better place to work.

THIS GAME IS SO STRESSFUL!!! There are so many thing you need to fix like when I’m on any level and I land in one spot and get as far as 800 but next time I do it and land further and get 300 and sometimes I land less further and it goes to 1000 so that’s something you need to fix. Another thing was that when I went to go unlock a new skin I would press the 100 coin thing to get it and nothing would happen so I clicked it three times and somehow I got to -48 coins and I didn’t even get a new skin. Another thing is that when I’m in one level it would send me back a level or send me forward a level. I would not get this game until the company who made this game fixes those problems. Other than that the game is great it’s really addicting and if it worked correctly then it would be a huge hit. Anyways those are just some thing I didn’t like about the games. I wouldn’t get this game until the problems are fixed.

It’s a very fun game but it consumed my iPhone’s battery like nothing. (Over 10% in over 10-15 because of the amount of ads and data usage)
Second, the distance to unlock a”new island” maxes out at 1200. I constantly get over that in almost every run.
Third, there’s no “new island”, just the same ones in different colors, themes, etc.
Fourth, the amount of distance you need to cover to level up also maxes out at 5000ft. (Also got to that quite fast)
Fifth, unlocked ever character in less than an hour of play. I don’t feel rewarded because of that, and I felt no desire to keep playing to see if there’s something else.
Sixth, since the distance to “unlock a new island” is at 1200ft, I tried to see if there was something else, like a secret island if I completely passed the little island after the jump. (Clearing 2300ft) And yo my surprise, nothing.
This game had a potential to be the new floppy bird in a sense of addiction to a new mini game, but it fell incredibly short.
Fun game for like a day.
Hope it gets a 2nd versión with more love poured into it.
P.S. would be great if you could also customize the characters a bit further (i.e. the biker with the hotdogs bike, or Washington’s bike)

What is this?! On the ad that I saw BikesHill It was perfect but until another ad comes popping up the exact game it’s just annoying I thought that this game will take stress but instead it added stress it looks so fun until another ad comes up. And it is very glitchy so every time I played the game shut down my phone just exits BikesHill this game is so annoying it is not recommended for anyone for me. I thought I would finally find the best app but instead I downloaded one of the worst apps. If you wanna have fun download a different app because BikesHill is not useful it is not fun it is very annoying and it glitched like five times. It is a fine and good app but when glitches it’s the worst app ever so I wanted to give it one star but I don’t give one stars to fine apps.

I think that you should make more bike paths, because i get bored sometimes just doing the same bike paths over and over again. The markers that say “best” and “last attempt” are completely out of order and are incorrect so I never know how far I jumped. The game is completely addicting for the first few days, and after that, you start to get bored from only 2 bike courses that you have already mastered. When you get new islands all they do is change the background colors, I think you could have made, rewards, jetpacks, new bike paths, or something like that. After about 1 week I started to get really bored of the game.

I love this concept. One of my favorite little games I’ve played and had on my iPhone. The only problem is the ads are extremely frequent and glitchy and lag the game. I would pay for a pro version of this game with no ads in an instant. Please make one or fix the ads. They pop up after almost every run and it takes away from the fun-factor of the game. The creator definitely deserves a fair share of cash for this great game, but I feel like I spend actually a handful of more time trying to click out of an ad than playing the actual game. The ads are so big it slows down and lags the game, even affecting my player performance, and it may tire me of this game prematurely. Definitely make a paid ad-free version, or fix the ad problem. Amazing game besides the ad problem, definitely one of my favorites of all time.

I used to enjoy playing this game but now I don’t at all. In this game I used to be able to make it to about 3000 feet at the end before the last two or three updates and now I can only make it to about 2000. It’s the most unsatisfying thing in the world to not be able to play as good as you used to because an update messed it up. Please put it back to how it used to be in the three previous updates. I know very well other people are thinking the same thing but not very many of them put it on here. If you made this update and were like “I think people will like this better, let’s do this” that’s ok but if you were like “the way this part works in the game is overpowered, let’s make it worse, who cares if the people who play are mad” shame on you. That’s not ok to do if that’s what happened. Thank you.

I gave BikesHill 3 stars because some times when i am playing BikesHill it randomly stops and bugs out making me lose the match, my second reason is because the home screen is just to small. Due to everything in the way it is hard to start the match without hittint some thing. Also when ever i beat a level it is good right? After im done that level then i go to play the next game it is fine. But if i beat a level 2 times in a row it does not let me do that. Also i am stuck at the level 5000 it wont let me level up no matter what. Even though i beat it it still lags me back to level 5000. So that is way i gave this app 3 stars. Also when it saus new island unlocked what does that mean? Where do i go to play on the new island?

by LilHefner

This game is so fun and I have been addicted the last few days. That being said, it needs some updates to reward player for playing to add a little more replay value. I saw the different bikes coming soon and i like that idea but I don’t think that’s enough to take the game to the next level. If it had different bikers, clothing too that would be pretty cool. Also if the game added some player stats. Such as furthest jump, highest jump, average jump distance, wins. Also maybe different tire upgrades to add higher height or something I think more playing upgrades beside the normal coins and speed would be super helpful. Finally being able to host games between friends or have “1 on 1”‘s would be dope. Hope you take my advice into consideration.

This game crashes like you wouldn’t believe. I haven’t been able to play more than three rounds in a row before it crashes. The problem comes from the fact that they decide to change the background every round. It seems innocent enough, but it forces BikesHill to load longer than I would consider acceptable and gives it a VERY high chance of crashing. This would be easily fixed if we could buy and “equip” different terrains in order to prevent the ridiculous amount of crashing.

Other than that, it is a really good game similar to Dune. I do enjoy it, but I would enjoy it more so if the loading was smoother.

Been playing the game for several weeks. Hit over 2.5k record many times, collected 120k coins, upgraded to levels 72 on both coin multiplier and speed booster. YET I don’t see the game changing or giving any new challenges.

Pros:
1. It’s fun to ramp up and boost your speed.
2. It’s fun to collect as many coins on the way.
3. It’s fun to cross maximal distance with all the momentum gathered.

Cons:
1. with the upgrades, there aren’t any noticeable effects on the speed and coin collectibles. In fact, I noticed by biking slow and collecting the coins on the hills, rather from the sky, you can bag a lot more. The fun from flying in the sky kinda goes away in greedy pursuit of coins.
2. With each new island unlocked, it’s the same thing again. Each island’s difficulty and playability is the same. If anything changes, it’s just the color and landscape of the island.
3. The game lacks change, ability vs difficulty contest, game’s too easy, and any form of sky stunt or maneuverability except for tilting sooner.

Suggestions:
1. Seriously create noticeable changes with the upgrades. From levels 30-70, I see no change in my coin collection ability or speed unless that’s a bug that I’m suffering from.
2. Change each island SIGNIFICANTLY. Introduce challenges or difficulties. It’s very repetitive and easy.
3. Introduce stunts or player-involvement in sky.
4. Newer skins having better abilities will be a nice perk.

by STOP SNIFFING MY BUTT!!!

I feel this hame was released before it should have been. Is unlocking an island seriously just changing colors?
Game is super addicting but getting boring quick. I’m at lever 125 and it’s getting repetitive. Other avatars have said “coming soon”...when is that? Is there gonna be different abilities or just a different skin? This game could be something amazing. Seems like it’s “good enough” and you e moved on. I’ll keep it a little longer...but if nothing is updated (game changes) in a couple weeks...I’m out.
Hopefully you don’t abandon it. Really could be a rad game.......and I’ll adjust my stars if you make that happen.

I have to say the game is really good, I am addicted whenever I get the time I will play one game, but it gets kind of boring jumping to about 3k everytime. The new islands could be a pretty good idea if you made them like the first island where we can jump on the island to get further and motivate us to get further. You can do this to add more islands and forcing us to try hard to get to the next one each time, so that the high score will be almost endless, if you dont jump far enough to get to the next island you are done, sounds like a pretty good game to me. Would love to see the changes, overalk good game

by NiyahPlayz

I honestly think this is a really good game and I had high expectations getting it since it’s made by one of my favorite game developers. It’s pretty addicting and fun to see how far you get in my opinion but it is really difficult to get to a new level . It took me a while to even get to level 2 so maybe if we were able to change like the game mode, like easy, medium, and hard. I also would like for there to be more speed boosts throughout the level maybe like 2-3. Please change the expectation for passing levels too because those are really high and just for a beginner is unreal. Overall this is a good game and I would recommend it to my friends.

So there are some flaws, but I seriously can’t stop playing it. But here are some things wrong with it:
1: There are only two maps you can play, a steep hill one with no coins, and one with coins but small hills.
2: The farther you fly stops at 2500 ft. After that, there are no more lines, it just keeps going.
3: The “Islands” don’t do anything.
4: It keeps lagging for no reason, I’m always scared it will crash.
That is why this rating is only four stars. Trust me, there are so many other things that they did perfect with this game, such as make the skins good. The graphics are nice, and once you get used to the controls, the gameplay is nice! Now, how would I improve the game? I would make the “Islands” new maps that you can choose from every game, or keep it random. I would increase the feet from 2500. Anyways, this is quite a nice game except those flaws. ❤️

This game is amazing! Yet this game also lacks playing. I know this sounds weird but there are honestly wayyyyyyyy too many ads. After every time you do a run there is an ad. This game also doesn’t have enough skins and maps. As total there are like 12 skins and every time you get past the amount it gives you unlock a new map that is not what I’m talking about. I guess what I’m saying is that there is not enough tracks to go on. Otherwise I would say download this game and have lots of fun playing this game. Thank you for your Time!!!! :)

I’ve been playing this game for quite a while now and due to the poorly calibrated physics engine that the game runs on I’ve kept finding reasons to play. The smooth bonuses one gets can easily be stacked on top of each other to achieve scores in the thousands of feet. Sometimes the smooth bonus will bug out and give you an additional bonus and propel your velocity to a higher level than normal. Using this, you can achieve scores in the tens of thousands. After around ~9000 or so feet the map disappears entirely and you land on nothing. On the extremely rare occasion the smooth bonus will give you two additional bonuses and really send you flying. Doing this with ~16x stacks of smooth bonus you can glitch outside the map entirely and achieve a functionally infinite score. I’ve let BikesHill run like this for hours and reached distances in the millions before closing app out of boredom.

Ultimately, what drives this game is its bugs, not its core game design, but as long as those bugs still exist its definitely worth playing. Don’t change Bikes Hill, don’t change.

Thank u so much for the new update!
I put a lot of reviews on BikesHill because that’s how much I love it! The glitches are all gone and the ads aren’t on that much so thank u so much!

Some reasons why you should get this game
But some reasons that I’m having some impatients too.

1: the reason why I’m so impatient with one thing is because there aren’t new characters yet and I’m still waiting!

2: you should get this game because your racing against other players on the map but. One issue, this game needs to be updated so u can race with actually players, not against the bots in this game.

3: I started playing this game when it got released and the issue is, is that when it started all there was is one pink girl character, but now they made more characters, also they made a new update where u can change bikes on the same character

But I definitely recommend this to everyone, thinks for the new update creator!!😁🤗🤗🤗

Okay so this game is great for killing time but I’m to the point I hate starting over after each run. I wish this was more like maze runner where it’s endless. If you can jump to the new island.. well great, you should be able to keep going. At the top it just congratulates you for making it to the next island. Jumps from island to island should vary in skill depending on how many islands you’ve jumped in a row. Maybe the first is 500 feet then the next is 1000 feet, and so on. If you add this, I guarantee this game with be more satisfying and enjoyable for longer periods of time.

Let’s face it.. we have a downloaded at least ONE stupid lookin’ game when we where younger. And for me, this was Bikes Hill. I would play this for hours on end, trying to upgrade my character and fly high so I could pet a pigeon or some crap. even tho it was pretty broken, looked like the person riding the bike was high on something and everything looked strange, and I used to be pretty sure they where all cats due to the physics, but it was still really fun. And today I was like, hey.. didn’t I used to play that one bike game..? And saw the Re-Download cloud and was like Ohh! That game is still alive?? And left a review. Leaving four stars for the memories, -1 for the graphics / physics, which where broken, but still kept the game fun, wacky, and PLAYABLE! Thanks for the memories cuz!

I’m gonna echo what a lot of other reviews have said. I’m level 50 right now, my coin multiplier upgrade is at lvl 20, and my speed is upgraded a lot too. However, there’s literally little to no difference.

I’m getting the same (if not less) amount of coins at upgrade level 20 than I did at the start of the game.

Speed is a little bit easier to see, but it still doesn’t match how many times I’ve upgraded it.

Also, whenever I reach the other side, it says “New Island Unlocked!”, but nothing changes. It just cycles through the same 3 or 4 areas and the other side gets a little bit farther.

I spent a couple bucks to eliminate the ads because I was getting bombarded with them. This would be a really good game if the things I listed were to be fixed.

Just give the player a sense that they’re actually improving. It’s a bit maddening when you spend hours on a game to save coins (because the coin multiplier does nothing) and you finally drop a ton of money on expensive upgrades and nothing happens.
