What tablet players say
I don’t play platform games as a rule because I’m really bad at them. I read the low-star reviews for this game, and several people wrote that it is too difficult, which made me think I’d better not buy it. But I’m glad I did buy it as it’s really one of the richest gaming experiences I’ve ever had. As for difficulty, I found that if a section was too hard, setting the game aside for a short time and coming back to it solved the problem. The puzzles are very creative and sometimes it’s a bit hard to know what to do, but YouTube solves that problem. That only happened once for me, so it’s not a big issue. I enthusiastically recommend this game. I played the game on iPad Air, which was perfect. Phone might be a bit small to manage the controls and to enjoy the visuals.
asiavpnuser· App Store· Jul 2023I have an iPad mini. Cant get her to do anything but stand up. Then finally, she walked to the left and got stuck by some stairs. Tried to walk her back, but she won’t move. Just gets home and when I move finger, she is immobile. Please fix.
Thelonious G.· App Store· Apr 2022This game is art, period. On my iPad Pro 2018 every scene and puzzle could be a wallpaper screenshot. I’m usual an action junky but took a chance when this was on sale. The soundtrack and beauty alone make it worth the play. And the puzzles become good too (if simple). It’s a very stress free game.
