Not good at all
I like the game bc it’s fun but why do u have to pay for the fun stuff like not fair at all.
★★★★ Ke Kate 6/16/2026 v3.1
This is unfair
You just need to buy more stuff though that’s when he’s trying to do
★★★★ ameliaasydhshhhbdnsn 6/15/2026 v3.1
it was fun, but now you need to pay for it??
i had this game a while ago in my old phone, and i loved this game. i decided to download it bc it’s a really fun game, but then i realized u have to subscribe to piknik for this app?? i don’t get it
★★★★ HORRIBLE >:( 6/14/2026 v3.1
I HATE YOU NOW
I used to love this app. I have the make up. I had a few packs and it was so so much fun but now that it’s run by I don’t even wanna say his name or her name. I don’t know you have to pay so I just don’t want it anymore. Get the old way from Toca Boca back and then maybe I’ll play again but now that this company runs it. I just hate it now so annoying please don’t get this. Also even if I did sign in I probably wouldn’t even have my purchases because it’s run by a different thing so why would I waste my money again so that I could just do that that’s a waste of money and that’s so annoying for me so that’s how I feel about this app now but if it was still run by the other company, I probably would’ve rated it. Five stars and it probably would’ve had this huge positive review you like yeah it would’ve had a good review but I just don’t like

This game is bad and every good thing cost money bc what do you mean that you have to pay 53 dollars a month for this. This is so rigged I do not recommend pls make this game batter and cost less money

Get the Toca Boca free trial and it will be a scam
I am 8years old and one day I asked my dad for the Toca Boca hair salon free trial and my dad got it for me and a few days later I could not download any apps or updates or redownload anything and I still can't do it unless I pay what they say I owe them but as soon as the free trial ended they said that I still had the features but I still did not 😡🤬🥵

Fine I guess I’m being nice here
I like the game but HATE how you have to share your PERSONAL information PERSONAL not PUBLIC Personal info like I don’t want no hackers giving me a virus. Plus spending money on a game that says FREE is stupid . I’m not trying to get scammed on an online game I don’t even know what could happen or where to start on talking about scammers or hackers. But overall the game is ok… nearly nothing to do and shows you the stuff you don’t have. That’s pretty much bragging. And just so you know this is a kid writing this.
★★★★★ They are really racist 6/23/2026 v3.1

I have gotten or buy things on there and I can’t get back into my account because I have to do something just for it.

The MONEY MONSTER Strikes Again!
PIKNIK! WHAT THE HECK?!?! You’re taking peoples childhood games and memories and making people pay again! What kind of person does that? The REAL Toca Boca, if you’re still there, stop letting Piknik steal and take over your company! For those of you people who want to play this game for free, use an iPad or iPhone and download Netflix and it should be in the row of games. Remember, it’s only on devices that are hand held! Not on TVs! Overall, Toca Boca, don’t let Piknik get the best of you! Let the hard work that YOU’VE DONE in YOUR games go to you! Not some other company that hasn’t done anything. Don’t let them steal your glory! I know the REAL Toca Boca is still there, so I added +1 star. If you show yourself, your REAL self, I’ll add 3 more stars. ⭐️⭐️ ➡️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
- A long time player who misses the REAL Toca Boca. 😢

Review
I think that the game should be free for everyone because sometimes it’s fun to relax and do people’s makeup and Toca Boca is one of my favorite brands and I’m not play u til the makeup and clothes are FREE!!
