It’s Tom Skilling in game form, what’s not to love? It’s a blast to play. Love it!


Won't load

Maybe it's because I am trying to use this on my iPad and I have an old one, but it won't load. Would love to try it. :(

Skilling fan so I enjoy the audio that's part of the game. Definitely can be a challenge to play as it speeds up. But fun.


I love Tom Skilling!

I love Tom Skilling & I love this game. I only wish we didn't have to wait so long for it.


Best Game Ever!!!!

I'm hooked... I am going to be late for work because I was playing the game. I love all of Tom's quips and comments... Shared with all of my friends.


Skilling App Hilarious & Addicting
Flagship401

The voices are perfect, all of Skilling's trademark exclamations are included! Starts off nice and easy, and gets way harder the longer you make it. The more you dodge the more you get to hear his silly phrases. Graphics are great and the game is easy to use. Whenever an icicle hits his head you feel so bad! It's funny and fun.


Great fun!

Love this app. Very funny. :)


App Won't Open
Joy-Us

I downloaded the app from iTunes onto my iPad but the game won't open. Is it not compatible with an older iPad? I have an original iPad.


I can't hear what Tom Skilling is saying
Tom Skilling fan

Really quick I love the game my issue is I can't hear what he said and I have my volume bar all the way up any ideas it needs to be fixed. I have a iPhone 4S from boost mobile


Great way to pass the time
