- “I got this about a week ago and I already have over half the pets! Such a good game, 100% recommended because it's just so fun and there are no glitches. Amazing creativity - I love the bios of the pets, the names, and the cars are amazing. The panda is hilarious, and the graphics are top-notch!”
- “But even so, it's a great game and the game runs great.”
- “Overall, it's a cool app with no lags, no bugs, and no glitches.”
- “However, the pure number of times that I have run into lag, glitches, and even an inability to open the game (this rarely ever occurs to me!) heavily brings down my rating.”
- “First, when you pick up certain items or when the map loads in, it freezes up and causes you to crash into obstacles.”

The game is praised for its lack of advertisements, providing a seamless and enjoyable experience for players. Users appreciate the minimal in-game purchases and the overall free-to-play model, which enhances the game's accessibility and enjoyment. However, some players express a desire for more content updates and features, despite the absence of ads being a significant positive aspect.
- “I love this game! It is very good. I like how over time the rounds get faster. I also like how they added cars that can be used as a shield for one time; it can also make you faster at the start. I appreciate that they added a coin cost for a car instead of all emeralds. There are no ads in this game. Love the game!”
- “It is very playable and rarely has in-game purchases, which I like!”
- “Best game! Not bad, it is very addictive and has no ads. Very surprising!”
- “Ive been playing Dash Tag for years, at one point I thought it was removed from Google Play but I'm glad I still found it. I don't get ads anymore (been a few weeks since I played so that could change) but I would assume that because this game isn't updated anymore, there's not much to update as an endless runner. Some new skins and pets would be really neat, though I know this game will most likely never get another update.”
- “It is sad how you have to run from somebody who is not mean, so that is why I really meant 0 stars. If you want me to put 5 stars, you have to put a mean person in it and remove the ads. Of course, I only put 1 star so I can post this, but I really meant 0 stars.”
- “I really hate this game and every time I got near an animal I'd die and there were no 'save me' ads.”
