    Great game, although the leaderboards seems a bit messed up. I play on both ipad and iphone but my score for each level looks like the total of both my scores instead of the highest one.

    Awesome game! Love the art style and agree the conrols are fine. Played on iPad mini retina last night and no "skipping" but this morning loaded onto iPhone5, 7.1.2 and noticed the skipping issue. Still, such a nifty game. Love the different maps and vehicles. The music is very cool, in fact it's one of my favorite things about the game. Got my dollar's worth 10 minutes in.

    Hehe, this dev certainly likes his cars! Justified, though, as the controls are usually very good and the game controls very responsive!

    Damn, this is one of my favorite releases in quite some time. I am honestly loving how hard this is yet with every two second restart I'm getting just slightly more confident with the car physics and the obstacles to add a second or two to my run. If you are into high-score chasing games I can't recommend PAKO enough for the dollar you can't go wrong. This really has that "I'll just try one more time" appeal that ends up being 10 or 15 more.

    Watched the videos and finally bought it (it's just a buck, and I got tired of chasing codes :p). I hope it stands up to the hype created around it ;) downloading now...

    EDIT: played it a bit now. Instabuy. Controls are great, there are fantastic details in it (zombies in the cemetery anyone? :D) and it's got a great production. Great highscore chaser. The last stage is great! (Remembers me of Tiananmen... :p).

    @Dev: I experience a 1sec freeze every 20 secs more or less. I'm pretty sure it has to do with 3g connection and the game trying to synch something with the servers. I'm on a 4S non-JB with latest iOS and Spanish language settings. I'll try rebooting the game in case it has to do with memory issues.

    Just came here to support you with 5 stars :) I love it. My favorite car is the muscle one :) I would love to see a map where are not many obstacles (demolition derby arena? :D) so you have to make cops crash with each other :) Yeah and the overall leaderboard is not working (v1.0) and maybe number of police cars destroyed (not sure on this one) //edit: and "dead" cops disappear, especially when 3 of them crash to each other, but can be only 2. Also I often accidentaly skip the screen after crash becouse of trying to quickly turn so I tap the screen and restart round. And one more thing: it would be nice to always see the time to beat :)

    @Dev: Weird bug: I made a time of 1:04.99 in the last stage, but the game registers 1:44.99 in the leaderboards... I also get the "hiccup bug" where the game freezes for 1 second when the label of the "breaking news" banner changes (every 10 seconds). Game is fantastic though, highly enjoyable.

    What drew me to this game was nostalgia. I used to be hooked on GTA 2, and would spend hours trying to outrun the cops and make them crash into buildings and cars.

    I'm hooked on Pako. It's challenging, fun, and definitely addictive. If you haven't purchased it yet, you should probably do it right now.

    This game won't be leaving my phone anytime soon!

    Yay I'm so glad this finally came out again. I checked my wish list almost every day, believe it or not. It's even more fun than I thought it would be. 5 stars

    Bought it because if all the hype. It's ok. 6.5 out if 10 at best. Gets boring after a while.

    Eh not bad for a buck I guess but nothing I'll keep installed for long.

    I'm addicted, great game to just pick up anytime and start playing and does nothing to your battery. This game is gonna stay on my phone for a while. Also noticed that on the last map with the little thingy, if you look at the map choice before clicking on it, look at the car and the state of Alabama is in the center. By the way I have no idea how I noticed that!

    The stuttering on iphone makes it more or less impossible to reach higher scores. Is there a fix in the works?

    Loving the handling of the cars by the way, and the idea of a demolishion derby map sounds really cool. That could make a great multiplayer aspect of this game as well! Total chaos!
