Comments on Sometimes You Die for Android

★★★★★ Sketchy Moof · Jan 4, 2019

100% worth the money. Wonderful simplistic gameplay, easy-to-handle controls (apart from one particular level, you'll know it when you find it, hehe) challenging gameplay and some really head-scratching levels! The game also dives into a little bit of philosophy: what exactly DOES it mean to die behind a screen? The (spoiler alert) Prologue levels confused me at first, but it was really sweet getting to know about the development of the game! Very replayable; I'm still trying to get 0 deaths!

★★★★★ Willie Brewer · Apr 3, 2019

Sometimes it's easy as pi *cue awkward pause* you'll thank me later. The game isn't over until he says thank you for playing which is after you gain the ability to turn off the music. It was really good, highly recommend.

★★☆☆☆ Christian perez · Nov 9, 2022

I was going to give these 5 stars until that orange seesaw level which ia just unfair and ruins the whole game, also hard to hit pause button on samsung s9+ and s21

★★☆☆☆ Luke Doty · May 23, 2018

At first, this may seem like a 2006 flash game skating by on droll meta observations about the nature of gaming. It may seem like that because that's what it is. If you enjoyed this game, you might also like the book, "Sometimes You Read," with smash-hit chapters such as "This is a Book," and "You Are Reading a Book," and "Books: What Do They Even Mean?" with hidden epilogue "This is Good Writing BTW." Sadly, the book doesn't come with ear-achingly repetitive techno music.

★☆☆☆☆ Sonny B · May 16, 2020

It seems like it would've been a great game, but the part where you are supposed to be able to control gravity, where "I could make levels impossible to finish" is literally impossible to finish on the Pixel 2.
