Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Good idea with poor implementation. Game ONLY works with sreen in one position – probably designed for iPhone. Once you play for a minute, there are no chalenges, becomes boring in two.
Deleted the free version as soon as we saw that it did not support landscape mode.
Very good — must have game. We especially like the full upgrade with all 50 levels.
Buggy application, so don't waste money until some problems are fixed. For example, when a game ends, score board displays and cannot be easily removed. Even when scores disappear, the name banner remains and blocks out part of the scenery. Have to reboot the iPad to re-initialize game.
