Great idea, BUT! I can't link my main platform account (Epic store) to the Antstream account to login on any device...only PC. This is sad, that after so much time I still can't do that and I have a lifetime account and really love the idea of your project. Please, add the sync feature on the site or something. Thank you. Once updated - I will gladly put 5 star review, because the app itself is fun! Community fights, achievements, competitions, challenges h all this makes up a nice experience

I downloaded this and there is supposedly a tier of free games to try but none of them work for me. Every time I click on anything it asks if I want to subscribe to premium. Well, no. I don't. Not without testing the service to see if it even works for me properly! This is a nice idea, but with no way of trying it before you subscribe then it's useless to me. No free games tier anywhere to be found!

I would not recommend the app at this time!! Second and last try! WTH Antstream?!!?? Found app via Samsung Tv. Saw the retro games and was excited to play them again. Subscribed to try it out but was cancelled and refunded two days later with no explanation. Second attempt, logged in and received a message stating I was not subscribed but this time no refund. I would keep a subscription if the App worked. Refund my money please!!

Trying to pay for 1 month subscription on firestick cost £3.99 Will not allow me to do this. Tried installing on android phone, so I could pay. Charging me £6.99 Obviously I only want to pay £3.99 Tried logging in through google brower. Price £3.99 Put bank details in...get to the point off confirming its my account by bank sending code. Will not allow me to continue Can you actually buy this service. Almost impossible at this stage. Also when downloading from playstore. Cant ope

I'm a retro gamer so this beyond awesome for me! I have it downloaded on my phone so that I can play anywhere and on my firestick so I can play on a nice big screen,and there's also daily challenges! It's very fun for me so far.Also, I haven't experienced any technical problems at all ,every game has run smooth & you can connect a controller to your phone and play on the go! There's 2 subscription tiers (monthly & yearly) I paid for a whole year because it's worth it in my opinion.

Touch control thumb pad moves with your thumb so that makes it more annoying to use combos or even change direction in pacman or dig dug. Please add control settings. Otherwise I think it's pretty cool, and making duels cost 10 is really interesting and maybe other companies should try it too.

*update* Came back to this in 2024 and the system still is so bad. Bought premium for a month as I had a stream on my Samsung TV. Won't be getting it again. Doesnt work properly. When it does eventually start the games buffer so badly. ( I have fibre connection)They need to invest in better servers to stream. These are small games, shouldn't be happening. Hasn't improved since my original 2021 review.

Unplayable, for a company that prides itself on streaming, it does it poorly. I have a 1gig connection with a wifi download and upload speed of no less than 500Mbps (way over the amount needed for streaming). I played 2 games, and both ran horribly. I also have a Samsung 20 ultra, so there are no issues in the phone department. I will be requesting a refund because you must sign up for the service to even play. Great concept, horrible execution. Players beware, strong pass.

Love this but lately it's had way too many network problems and glitches that appear even when my home network is not being used by anything else. Also for the last month the snes versions of the Pinball Dreams tables only save scores in challenge mode not on general play. Also needs to be able to work with a bluetooth keyboard connected to a keyboard as when connected the app doesn't register when the arrow keys are pressed during gameplay.
