"[4] SlideToPlay said "If you enjoy getting stumped and stumping others, this personality-filled puzzle game should be your next download. "[5] IGN wrote "Moki's 70 environmental puzzles will challenge you for days and the hundreds and thousands of user-generated levels will keep you busy for months. As far as I'm concerned, this is a must-own title and a showpiece for Apple's portable. "[6] Appgamer said "iBlast Moki combines aspects of Rolando, Billiards, Little Big Planet and Crazy Machines to form its own unique, engaging and fun experience and we would urge you not to miss out on it."[7] Pocketgamer UK said "Physics-based action puzzler iBlast Moki provides plenty of explosive fun as well as providing some surprisingly thoughtful challenges.

"[13] Gamezebo wrote "Even though the market is full of physics puzzlers at the moment, iBlast Moki 2 manages to stand head-and-shoulders above its competition. It's incredibly clever and fun, and its stunning production values only add to the overall experience. "[14] SpazioGames said "A funny and compelling puzzle game, if you love the genre this is for you.
