Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Very good app but needs online Leaderboard.
Maybe too simple? We want colors and bosses.
Where are the instructions? Absolutely maddening because Id like to improve our chess game by becoming more familiar with the movements of the knights.
The concept for this game is good but its still a bit buggy and you have to relaunch the app in order to play again.
Does exactly what it says it does. You move a knight around.
This is actually a bit addicting and is great for someone who enjoys visual puzzles and wants to pass some time.
We wish there were some more options. A level scale or mode setting to give more/less time or reduce/increase the blocked squares would be nice. The ads are pretty intrusive as well considering how short the game cycles are. It's a great concept, but still needs some work.
Good Game, Needs a no ads in-app purchase. They need to fix the menu item as well.
