  • wish I hadn't purchased this game

    The graphics are pretty good, but this really isn't a game well suited for a mobile device and seems like a port done from the computer just to make some more money on the iPhone. If I could save my game and had more lives in the game this might be something I would be willing to play on a mobile device, but until then I don't have any plans to sit down for like 30minutes at a time to get to save point and risk having to totally start over because i was interrupted by something else going on in the world. This a perfect example of a game I would have liked to preview on the iPhone before buying. I haven't played this game since and now I wish I hadn't purchased it.

  • Good game! Hard to control

    This is the best game I have seen to utilise the iPhone platform. Very big game! Is a bit hard to control sometimes, the bug just wont go in the right direction
  • Terrible controls

    This is proof the iPhone iPod touch will never be a good gaming device.
  • Save Option Needed!!!

    Can't enjoy this without a save option. You have to play a level all the way through before it auto saves. That is INSANE for a mobile phone game. If the phone rings it screws up your game. An alarms you may have set, screws up your game.... Hey PANGEA.... look at the majority of the reviews, we want a SAVE OPTION!!! Oh, and incase anyone was wondering: Blueberries give you flying power Strawberries are for health If you find your Skip is running too fast go to your settings menu and turn your Sensitivity Controls way down If he is not turning the correct way hold down the neutral button. These are little things that should have been included with the online instructions.

  • Would be 5 stars, but...

    The controls! This game is beautiful, ingenius, very nice overall. But controlling your character can be frustrating as hell! The camera whips around when you turn...it messes with my brain man! Makes me want to scream! Sometimes when I try to do a kick I end up flying instead, which wastes valuable resources (you can only fly as long as you have the right powerups, which can be depleted). The game itself is awesome and very creative. There is so much to do. But the controls make me wonder how much more I can take. The simple act of making your character walk up to an acorn and pick it up can be so frustrating. Sometimes my guy starts running so fast...I am constantly "re-orienting/calibrating" the accelerometer. Maybe they should add an option to use touch control only. If you can master the controls then this game is a fantastic value. Top quality production. 5 stars if they can fix the controls, although I'm not sure how that could be done.

  • Great RPG, needs more save points.

    This is probably the best 3D RPG for the itouch/phone and like most RPGs, require a lot of exploring and fulfilling objectives. However, this is a SERIOUS lack of ability to save your progress. On average, it takes about 20-30minutes between save points and this is just awful. It is difficult to overcome multiple incidents of lost-progress, which discourages gameplay overall. Nonetheless, the graphics are superb, handling is great, and the neutral button to re-calibrate the accelerometer from any position is priceless. This game is indepth and well designed. Another great hit from Pangea. Would have rated this 5 stars, but the lack of save points took off 1 star, and the discouragement of losing your progress takes off yet another. Hopefully, Pangea will simply update this and allow its players to truly enjoy the game.

  • Controlls Are Difficult

    the controlls are very difficult in this games but otherwise very fun!!
  • Good

    This game is pretty good. So far I am not very far through it, but it looks promising. I find the controls are rather hard to get used to, especially when on the baseball. If you could have an option of camera angles that would be great as I find you can't see very much, or very well with the current one and it spins like crazy which makes it even harder to control. Very nice game though, and for only $1.20 at the moment, its well worth it.

  • Not Good, Not Bad

    Bugdom 2 seems to be a great adventure game on first glance. However, the controls are extremely poor; and even though the sensitivity of the acceleromotor can be turned down in the settings I found my self going all over the place and finding it extremely difficult to control speed. That said Bugdom 2's graphics are amazing but the poor controls seriously let the game down, personally I'd give the game a miss.

  • Great game, needs robust autosave

    Losing all my progress because the phone rings (or because I put it down, or because I need to check something) is extremely frustrating. It is made more frustrating by the fact that the game offers to restore your game when you reenter the program, except it doesn't restore from where it was. It took me several open-quit cycles to realize what was happening. People aren't going to not answer their phones because they are in the middle of a game, and they are going to stop playing the game if the behavior becomes too irritating. I think this problem exists for all of the Pangea games. They are very well done ports of existing desktop games. Pangea did a great job translating the controls to the iPhone/iPod Touch , but they still need to make a few modifications to make the games complete in a environment that offers minimal multitasking capability. Robust autosaving is the main one. Even if the autosave gets cleared if the user doesn't click "Yes, resume this game" when the game opens, it would be better than nothing. At the very least, if the game is manually paused before exiting the program, that state should be remembered when the app is reopened.
