My favorite game for years, EXCEPT:
This is a marvelously clever and addictive game which I discovered years - maybe decades - ago and played until it could no longer be updated to my computer. Now it’s back, to my delight, BUT….
It is not available on a Mac computer, only on my iPads & phone. It’s doable on a phone (albeit a 14ProMax) but absolutely impossible on a tablet because, without a screensaver the screen/finger interface gets sticky. Furthermore the entire game screen slides to the side, interrupting and closing the game and switching the screen to a start again (where you left off) page. This isn’t a problem if the ball is UPGOING, but it’s sudden death if it’s anywhere near the paddle.
Second, periodically the game asks if you “Want More Energy” and there seems to be no way to get rid of the page that urges you to “Buy Now” for $9.99. The “NO” button is completely useless.
There’s a timer, but even after it runs out, the ad reappears.
The developers need to make this game available on desktop/laptop computers (as it was originally) and,
Please, by all means OFFER your in-app purchase, but don’t let it destroy the game!
Otherwise five stars.
