Critical Reception
IGN rated version 2.0 of the iOS port of Bike or Die 2 as "decent". The game's value for money, range of visual options and large number of player-created levels and was praised. The trial-and-error gameplay was criticized, due to the "floaty" physics of the bike and the fustration of having to restart a level after making a mistake. It was observed that slow, patient problem-solving is required to progress, rather than the speed required in other racing games. However, less than a month after the IGN review, Bike or Die was updated with a new "Save and Resume" feature that allows a player to restart the level from a previous save point so that they do not have to start a level from the beginning each time they die. This was done to reduce the frustration that newer players felt.

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or reception:
“The male has been persuaded to assume a certain onerous and disagreeable rôle with the promise of rewards—material and psychological. Women may in the first place even have put it into his head. BE A MAN! may have been, metaphorically, what Eve uttered at the critical moment in the Garden of Eden.”
—Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)
“I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.””
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
