- Apple Pencil support fixed for scratching. More precision, same odds.
- Vibration haptics no longer stop when you leave the app. Your losses can now reach you anywhere.

Our Expert Score
Scritchy Scratchy is a masterclass in tactile feedback. In a digital world, this game manages to feel 'soft.' The way the fur reacts to your finger movements is genuinely impressive, creating a calming effect that makes it a perfect 'wind-down' game before sleep. It doesn't ask much of the player other than to show a little affection to virtual animals, and sometimes that's exactly what you need.
While simple in concept, the variety of pets and the deep customization options provide a solid sense of progression. The sound design deserves a special mention—the purring and happy chirps are incredibly soothing. It's a great choice for kids, but adults looking for a bit of digital stress relief will find it equally charming. It's wholesome, high-quality, and undeniably cute.

Best Incremental i've Ever Played
Mon May 25 2026 BrianisweirdThis game is absolutely amazing. Progression doesn't feel long and drawn out, upgrades in the prestige tree are balanced, its a very very fun game. Mid-game when u have to build certain skill trees for different achievements gave the game some extra variety and none of the achievements were overly grindy. I genuinely enjoyed playing the game and actually wanted to prestige and replay due to the gameplay loop being fun, unlike other unbearable incrementals. The only issue i have with this game is that there needs to be more to do. Now that i've 100% the game and have over 1.1e40 dollars, i hope they update the game in a large enough way to add some more gameplay and things to work and look forward to.
Good game, too short for the price
Mon Jun 29 2026 daniel._.murphy147I had a lot of fun playing this game and honestly think it was well developed and a unique idea, not to mention it has no ads. I understand that part of having no ads is the price point ($6.99 when I purchased) but I found that the amount of content you receive does not equate to the price point. In the game you only go through 4 “catalogs” of scratch cards with 4 different cards in them each, for a total of 16 cards and one final card (the prestige/death system). The game allows you to manually prestige but it’s better to just die and collect prestige points that way. All in all it took about 4 total prestiges/death to beat the game. There are various upgrades that you earn throughout the gameplay which are well designed and achievements as well that provide tickets for cosmetic upgrades. I was able to collect about 2/3 of the achievements on my first play through and due to future achievements only unlocking more cosmetic upgrades I didn’t really have a desire to play another life. Again I like the game a lot, but I think if you compare it to similar idle style games the mechanics are similar enough with much more content but many more ads.
Fun, needs work
Sun Jun 14 2026 V3N150NI do think this game can be worth $7 on mobile but as of now I can’t say so. It’s an enjoyable incremental, but it’s very apparent that it was made for PC and just so happened to be able to work as a mobile game as well. There are a lot of mobile optimizations I wish were in the game whilst I was playing. For one, it’s very easy to accidentally trash tickets whilst scratching them as it takes up a majority of the right side of your screen and simultaneously has no confirmation before trashing them. Another thing is the wrist saving modes, which were unchanged from the PC version. Hover has no effect, and click and hold has too much spread, causing you to scratch something you didn’t mean to. There isn’t much of a point to having accessibility features if they are inferior to the default option. Lastly, something that isn’t as apparent in normal play, it would be cool if the hotkey prestige upgrade was different on the mobile port as it serves no purpose at all while being the most expensive. I think it very well could be worth the $7, just needs some big optimizations for mobile. Still very fun though!
Fun but shouldve been developed more before release!!!
Wed Apr 08 2026 WeatheringWithSkyThis game is great, simple, letting you find joy that gambling for once isn’t scamming you. The art is nice is as well. I actually really enjoyed this game despite the things I hate (listed below). I would say 3.5 and the ONLY reason is for lack of thorough development. By the time it gets fixed, this game is done and gone from my library. I’m sure others relate. We move on. HOWEVER the game is buggy. Consistently. You have to exit the game and return to fix it. Could easily mess up your runs. With the amount of testers, you’d think these bugs were caught. Either lack of proper testing or the developers simply didn’t feel like fixing it before release. From coder to coder, it’s a bit disappointing as it’s a pretty major bug that happens frequently. The cosmetics are also so limited despite the amount of money you can get for it. Also with the achievements, the credits are too long to go through each time. Once for sure, I get it. But after, make a skip button. It would be great for the ending sequence to have a larger scrub size because you genuinely need to clean it all up which is slightly tedious with the size. Another grievance is the lack of proper explanation for the speedrun achievement. I did it a few times before having to look it up online that you specifically have to do the prestige yourself, not the end of the game prestige. And you have to get a real ending, not the initial one which isn’t obvious.
Playable but not great
Sun Jul 26 2026 unhappyplayer1234UPDATE: after the most recent update, the game is playable! However, it’s still pretty buggy :( I was able to play for about twenty minutes and got annoyed at the fact I couldn’t press buttons without using my finger and sometimes the input from the apple pen still lagged when I was scratching. BUT it is a HUGE improvement from where it was, so thank you for listening developers ily <3 I didn’t notice any lag from my finger anymore!!! But then again, I really only used my apple pen. I know you guys will make it work perfectly eventually!!! I love this game. I bought it on my PC and played for hours. I wanted to be able to play it in bed so downloaded it on my iPad, thinking my Apple Pencil would make it easier for me. NO. It doesn’t work. And if it was the pencil, whatever, that’s fine. But it stops registering my normal finger input too! And not after twenty minutes, after only a couple minutes! They really need to fix this bug as it makes the game literally unplayable.
Ruined it for me
Sat Apr 11 2026 quilicalHey, remove going bankrupt if you still have tickets on the table please. I have just lost a three hour long run, and all future enjoyment of this game in general, because the phone started ringing and wouldnt stop and so I pressed it thinking I can just throw the loan away and wait for my tickets to take me out of debt. Then it says "BANKRUPT" and sends me to the prestige screen with none of the JP i had earned in those three hours, and makes me start a brand new run. Actually ruined the game for me. but this game is good so ill just keep playing while i cry edit: i beat the game, changed review from 1 star to 5 stars, i was just mad at losing so much progress to something i didnt see coming
An amazing phone game worth the price
Thu Jul 23 2026 YzzanhsThis is not a quick game you can get through in a day or two like most games, there are many challenges you can meet that keep you playing again and again. I’ve personally looked for scratch card games in the past but they all sucked in comparison. I genuinely have a lot of fun playing this game and I enjoy that you can either play or afk. I don’t typically write reviews but the reason I bought this game was based on someone else’s review! So I figured I’d share my experience on this game.
Game is great, and many of the bugs were fixed!
Fri Mar 27 2026 FrogBabbyWant to start with the positive, the game is satisfying and addicting! I played it on Steam first and enjoyed it enough that I bought it again for mobile, I enjoy scratch tickets IRL but don’t want to spend on them all the time, so this scratchys the itch! I had a list of quirks and bugs as part of my review as I felt the mobile version didn’t feel great compared to desktop, but many of the issues have been addressed so the few that remain aren’t large enough to impact my review any longer. I can’t wait to see what future updates bring!
