Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This game is fantastic, extremely calming, and fun. This was our favorite game when we were younger, and remains that today.
Fun game. Not too complicated. Move at your own pace.
Fun logic and skill at the diverse levels.
We luv the trace 2!! Very cool. And it took us about 10 min to figure out how to erase, but in level4 we finally figure out what the two fingers was trying to do..teach u how to erase. LOL.
Really fun. More challenging than the first.
Don't listen to the negative reviews Trace 2 is just as good as the 1st Trace and you can erase, you swipe with two fingers to erase (learn how to read).
Love the creativity and the look of this one. Much more sophisticated and exciting than the first game. However it crashes on level 5 and we can no longer play it because the second we open it it just crashes. Needs bug fixes. Make an update.
This is good game.. We really love trace1, so we bought it for our little boy . But this eraser is not good to control, and the music is not good. Hope u can update it , thx u.
This is a great game and a great concept, but the erase functionality is too complicated. It rarely knew when we were attempting to erase and we ended up with a million lines all over the screen. If the erase was more precise it would be great.
App is as fun as the original and basically worth the price but it has been crashing a lot in world 5 on our iPhone 5 running ios7. We open a level. It crashed. Repeat. Something's wrong in the code. Even when we quit the app and restart the phone.
Game now crashed on the latest ios7.
The first trace was amazing, one of our favorite games ever but this one is not as good. The music is weird unlike the first, the first one looked better and the first was just made better in the first place.
A super lazy version of the first one, which was awesome. We want our money back just as a statement. DO NOT BUY.
We LOVED the first app but this one is stupid, it makes no sense, you can't even erase lines. To all lovers of the first app, DONT BUY THIS ONE.
Totally worth paying for. Trace 2 is a really awesome game. New challenging levels, fun obstacles, and really addictive! Please make trace 3 or more trace 2 levels:)…..we alrdy beat the game haha.
Trace gets a part 2 with amazing graphics and sound. Great continuation to one of the original iPhone games.
We LOVED the first one and we live this one. -.
Still the great game our kids and we enjoyed on our original iphone, but updated with new levels and backgrounds. Simple to understand gameplay, but still encourages creative thinking to solve the puzzles. Pro: we were able to install it on our ipad1! Con:Not sure we like the new two fingers to erase, it is less precise.
We give this 5 stars except…no eraser? Am we just missing it? Without the eraser it's too difficult to even play.
Glad to see a second installment of this simple yet addictive puzzler. Our sole request would be to make the controls larger (hard to use currently) while maintaining use of the whole screen: this could be accomplished with a pinch-to-zoom feature. Keep up the great work.
