Game was my child hood life and best core memory of video games
- Karen Susee · v1.5.6
I couldn’t get the sound to work which is a bummer when you have a 4 year old who isn’t reading yet. Need sound to play and know what to do or you have to read subtitles
- 90s game lover · v1.5.4
I was so happy to be able to buy this game as it was a huge part of my childhood. But for some reason the audio wont work on my phone? Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!
- Hailey Raine · v1.5.4
Just as I remembered it as a kid, except there is a skip button now. lol
- MarcoPonchoDuo · v1.5.6

- Haizel Red · v1.5.6
Pure nostalgia, I loved playing these games as a kid and I am so happy they are available.
- Malav Shah · v1.5.6
he pissed me off with the board
- Mel Trachy · v1.5.6
Nostalgia. I'm having a blast playing all of the pajama sam games. I love that it's actually slightly hard compared to the Freddie fish games (which I also love). I wish I could comment to people complaining about certain aspects. If you can't access certain objects (like the oars) it means you don't need them to progress! the items are randomized Everytime you play! Also to access your items, you have to tap a few times along the bottom of the screen and it should pop up.
- Scout White · v1.5.6
I love this game as a kkids. and it's at an affordable price. please add all your games! it's a shame to only add a few
- Stephanie · v1.5.6
Love the game but it keeps restarting without saving my progress.
- shwkiwb · v1.5.4
the inventory won't open up...
- Nicola Parkin · v1.5.6
a perfect port
- Tyler Skarzenski · v1.5.6
Fun, cute little adventure. Good art. Good music. Works pretty well on my phone. Had some odd audio hiccups in the kitchen, the first time I went in though. The way this studio makes every game have multiple paths (not branching, it switches between each New Game) when replayed from start gives it replayability even after already beating it once.
- Keith Pangilinan · v1.5.6
i started the game and had sound and it played great but all of a sudden it just stopped working:( no sound and i couldn’t reach the ores no matter how far i swung.
- Julia04!! · v1.5.4
I love this game played it as a kid real nostalgic Sam is a fun character
- Zacharias Harrod · v1.5.4
rubbish
- Vivienne Curtis
I played this as a kid. And I still play it. It’s funny, colorful, and cozy. The soundtrack is unforgettable. A great game to play when I want to take a trip down “memory lane.” Thank you, Pajama Sam, for all the years of fun and adventure. May the game carry on its legacy. Now grab your lunch box, flashlight, and mask and dive into the world of imagination!
- Lino7612 · v1.5.4
Unplayable.
- Browie_huno · v1.5.4
great for kids
- Tyesha Matthews · v1.2.4
I haven’t been able to continue the game sir to the items not being an option to use which I need to continue the game so if that’s gets fixed we’ll be good
- Diedueduedie13 · v1.5.4
New bug where no sound happens.
- Notthemama253 · v1.5.4
I really want to like this game but the music and sounds are either stuttering or not there at all. I would love it if you could fix this issue so I can play this. I will update my review if it's fixed.
- Brittany Loudy · v1.5.4
Can't get past the oars the game freezes everytime I get to the point where he should grab them.. can't move forward without it
- Samantha Williams · v1.5.4
Game pay is great, it’s easy and fun and brings back tons of memories. Problem is, NO VALUME. I bought this game months ago, thinking this would be a quick patch, but still NO VALUME!!!
- Sisum38 · v1.5.4
Used to be able to play won't even let me hit play without closing now please fix
- Em Santalucia
I played this as a kid so im happy to be able to have it on my phone!
- Brittany Vanfossen · v1.5.4
app does notstart anymore
- Money Farm
This is fun despite the little glitchy audio in the kitchen.
- Daphne McRae · v1.5.4
Please patch in an inventory button! Like how the load, save, skip have a dedicated button; inventory should have a button. Our enjoyment during playthroughs are met with repeated frustrations over not being able to easily pull out Sam's stuff. Please consider this for all Humongous Entertainment games on mobile as it would improve user interface, leading to more enjoyment for the players. I hope you see this, and, please, honestly consider this recommendation.
- Douglas Futrall · v1.5.4
It's great and all, but everything freezes whenever I'm in the kitchen
- Kilvieo · v1.5.4
I am having a little issue with pajama Sam no need to hide when it’s dark outside there are times once I a while where there comes a point where the arrow of the game can’t move and I can’t tap and it is making me start the game over again I am a huge fan of pajama Sam I love these games so much and I hope the issues with pajama Sam 1 and pajama Sam 3 Gets fixed
- Picard 1001 · v1.5.4
The update ruined the game. Please make it full screen again!
- raybear34 · v1.5.4
I previously wrote a review expressing disappointment with the new display that had large save, quit, and skip buttons and I would like to rescind that review. I’m not sure if it was fixed or I just missed that detail about changing it. Regardless, thank you once again Humongous and keep doing what you’re doing:)
- Alex Varnado · v1.5.4
DO NOT BUY. No audio on iPhone. Disappointed this company I loved ripped me off this way
- CrispTiddies · v1.5.4
Love it. Real throwback to when I was little. Used to love playing on the computer. Gameplay and style exactly as I remember. Slight difference in locations of things from what I remember though.
- Natan Bushee · v1.5.4
Fix bug
- Deontay Barlow · v1.5.4
Bugs were fixed and works great! It was like playing as a kid again and I loved it!
- Katie Smithey · v1.4.7
The new update makes it so it shows the game in a small window with wide borders that say skip, save, or load. Almost half the screen is taken up by buttons I don’t need to use. In its current form this game is unplayable for me and I will try again in a few weeks hoping for some fix to this
- BassxdGod · v1.4.7
Loved this as a kid, glad it's still around to bring back memories of simpler times.
- computiNATEor · v1.4.7
Was SO excited to play this game from my childhood! Warning!! Me and many others are experiencing an issue where you cannot grab the paddles from the swinging chandelier. I’m very surprised that this hasn’t been fixed after reading so many people having the same problem. That being said you cannot proceed past that point. Wish I could get a refund!
- Jobox2 · v1.3.1
Please add Big Thinkers Kindergarten and 1st Grade and also Putt Putt and Pep’s Balloon O Rama
- Ooze Blaster · v1.3.1
I wouldn’t say it’s worth the price but it was a fun game then and it was fun game now to introduce to my kids but it’s a very short game. Wish there was more to it.
- Reviewww2393 · v1.3.1
I LOVE THIS GAME (I did as a kid too), but there’s NO SOUND 😩😩😩
- Kerri_Lynn · v1.3.1
It renders the game unwinnable; has anyone else experienced this? If so, is there a way to fix it?
- MayaLynchx · v1.3.1
For anyone having audio issues with this app or any other humongous games on iOS or iPadOS regarding audio, make sure your volume is up then make sure Notifications are not MUTED (Silence switch OFF on iOS, Bell icon has no line through it in control panel on iPadOS.) I thought the games were bugged then found a fix myself. Hope this helps!
- Bigdumtuna · v1.3.1
There are times when the game crashes and I have to restart which is annoying
- Naruka310 · v1.3.1
This is one of if not THE best video game EVER!!!!
- BananaBoi999 · v1.3.1
I bought this game to play with my 4 y/o son because I used to love playing these games as a kid. Unfortunately without the sound working he very quickly lost interest, please patch this quickly!
- Staetz · v1.3.1
My childhood game just as I remembered it. Solution to the no sound issue: Make sure your do not disturb/focus mode is off and ringer is not silent. For some reason game volume is muted when that is on.
- Avery64974 · v1.3.1
Masterpiece
- Jose Esparza · v1.2.4
If you played the Pajama Sam games as a kid and you’re looking for some nostalgia, this game is soooo worth the price. Exactly what I remembered. Easy to navigate. Chef’s kiss
- E1R1I1N1 · v1.3.1
This version of Pajama Sam does not recognize where the cursor is on the screen until you click, making it inconvenient as figure out what is clickable. iPadOS and macOS both support cursors, so this is odd. Secondly, there is no menu to select your storyline. This should be added.
- Alijah Simon · v1.3.1
It's such a fun classic for kids!
- Katie Ruffalo · v1.2.4
Always get froze on the same level can’t even play the game
- Feareid · v1.3.1
Brings back memories.
- Nelsin-Nagant Kimber-g
There is no sound. The sound doesn’t work for this app. I can’t find any way to fix it.

- Rafi598 · v1.3.1
Loved the games as a kid and I am sure my kids will love them too. An HD remaster would be amazing
- Ricardo Calderon · v1.2.4
I’ve missed this game. I was so happy to learn that it was on the App Store! But I’ve noticed a small thing. When trying to get the oars, he doesn’t swing his arm and doesn’t jump over to get them. You just keep swinging back and forth forever. So there’s no way to get any farther :/ Please fix so I can continue reliving my childhood
- Megs74p · v1.3.1
Was fun but 3 star half way of through thee game it's freezes
- Emoaprentice21
love
- LINDS Warn · v1.2.4
Good Game Never Gets Boring Unless The Games Item Swap Doesn't Swap The Items
- Courtney Perkins · v1.2.4
This game is super well done and almost exact to the original, but it has crashed on me a few times and I had to delete and redownload. Hoping this can get fixed !

- kristopher mains · v1.2.4
It was fun blast from the past.
- clint burhenn · v1.2.4
It keeps freezing 🥶
- Faith McLeod · v1.2.3
It's all really nice to relive our childhood. But it glitches from the dance room and the room to get the ore. It was a waste of money to not be able to beat the game
- Dark dreamgaming · v1.2.4
Good game
- Deontay Barlow
Coolest Game Ever in the world
- Jeremiah Goldsberry · v1.2.3
Perfect other than there’s no sound.

👌
- Joshua Perry
Super bummed. I was so excited because I loved the PJ Sam games, but they just aren’t good without the sound, especially for kids who can’t read yet! Please fix the sound
- Slabach5 · v1.3.1
Can’t reach the ores. It doesn’t matter how many times you try. Can’t even finish the game!
- MelZig3! · v1.3.1
Crashed/ Minimizes every time upon running..
- Adil Malik
Just like the original. Perfect. No lag. I appreciate the nostalgia trip this took me on.
- wolf Spirit · v1.2.4
Brings back memories. Not sure what that one reviewer was saying about removing the nuggets arcade, I was able to find it. I'm solely buying these games to compare to the old pc versions.
- Billy Covert · v1.2.4
There were a few bugs, but overall the game played very well. None of the bugs I encountered hindered my ability to play and complete the game. Great job converting this classic game. Will try putt putt next. I hope it plays just as good.
- David
Still the same game and my sound works fine but the story line never changes. I want it fixed or I want my money back.
- K32900 · v1.3.1
The mine car doesn't stop in the gold tunnel so you can’t get the gold for the toll bridge
- beccas ma · v1.3.1
Make sure your phone isn’t on silent mode otherwise there will be no audio
- Gy6Nick · v1.3.1
If I can’t go into the library, how do I get the magnet to finish the game??? Don’t buy if you want to actually finish.
- Hoodie Luver · v1.3.1
I don’t remember the lunch box being in the water when I was a kid. You used to have to go down the wishing well and Otto need oars. It’s about half the amount of gameplay that I remember.
- OutlawdCowboy · v1.3.1
I played this game when I was a kid and it’s the greatest game ever. I love it so much and it is just like I remember it. The Pajama Sam bundle $12, is more fun than any other app I’ve bought. At first I was hesitant to buy it because people talked about sound issues, but the sound works as long as you have headphones or earbuds. There is no external sound but that doesn’t bother me. This is the most classic Pajam Sam game, and I can’t decide if I like it more than game 3, so I think they are both tied as my favorites. I was so excited when I saw this on the app store, I couldn’t believe it’s here! I’m very thankful for the app because the Pajama Sam DVDs (before it became an app)- don’t work on most modern computers, so the only place I could play it would be a library and that’s embarrassing because I’m an adult. The Pajama Sam games have all of the different routes for anyone wondering, so you get to play new paths when you start a new game. They are chosen at random so it’s always new and exciting. I was wondering if the app version was gonna have the different routes! Very impressed. It’s definitely worth the money. I play it on an iPad, and using my finger to tap the screen is such a big upgrade from when I was a kid and had to use a mouse. I remember this game well, so I finished it quickly, that was the only con and it’s not really a con. Thank you Humongous Entertainment for making such awesome games!
- Aubrey G L. · v1.3.1
I got the bundle with the 3 games and none have sound 😭
- gabs915 · v1.3.1
Everything is great about the game just like a remember it! However, there’s one issue. Just like the other Pajama Sam games, the tasks are randomized every time you play. Sam’s flashlight and lunch box change so you’re not doing the same mission every time, however the mask stays the same. The mask is always with the carrot every time you play. Usually, it should switch from being in the living room and using the invisibility potion to get it.
- jlagunas924 · v1.3.1
I paid for this game and no sound which wouldn’t be a big deal if it was FREE!!!.. please either fix the sound or give me money back
- BLOODspillQ33N · v1.3.1
Amazing, blast from the past! My only complaint is that it isn’t fully like the original computer game. There is no library option to get the invisibility potion, there is no magnet, etc. I was sad to see that but other than that, it’s great!
- Jjnoodlehead · v1.3.1
This is the same game you remember! The sound works on iPad Pro and iPhone XS. The sound also works when screen mirroring to Apple TV. (I hope they bring this to Apple TV too!)
- tealeafbayleaf · v1.3.1
My brother and I used to fight over who would get to play this game back in the day on our parents old 1998 Gateway computer. It holds up very well, and even at 25 I was challenged by a few things. Very fun, and I highly recommend. PS All the morons who “can’t get the oars” it’s not a bug. The location of the mask, lunch pail, and flashlight are randomized every new game and you don’t always need the oar. If you can’t get them, it’s because you didn’t need them. Learn how to use Google.
- Finn 22 · v1.3.1
I am so glad I found this absolute master of a game on iPad again. Used to use it in my preschool on a PC for autistic and ADHD children years ago. This game helped them to develop not only their social skills but focus and concentration. But it is extremely good to develop critical thinking and problem solving for all children no matter what their skill level. . Honestly even some adults have difficulty with this game but kids can complete it because they will keep trying with novel solutions. Who ever designed this game was a genius because they understand child psychology and uses it to teach so it becomes fun.
- Rainbow kids · v1.3.1
Used to play all the time when I was a little kid on the computer, now I love playing while stoned it’s truly nostalgic. 👌
