### 5/5 — Hercules games are awesome

These are my favorite games! Jetdogs has the best strategy games ever! Highly recommend 🥰

### 5/5 — My favorite time management series

*2024-07-21, version 1.0*

The Hercules series is my favorite time management series. I play on my Mac desktop and have never had any issues. I play the free version, then usually buy it. Take advantage of the if you buy now, then lower price. Sadly, I didn't on some and the price is normal again. My fault though. I'd say they are a bit pricey on the full price of $13 but very enjoyable, so worth it. I need this developer to create another series because I have bought all of these! lol
