### 5/5 — Mük

*2025-12-20, version 1.15*

Çok güzel bir oyun tek sıkıntı arada bir reklam geliyo internetsiz oynaya bilirsiniz beyninizi de güçlendirir ben bayılarak oynuyorum 🤩🙃

### 2/5 — Good game, but extremely intrusive ads

*2025-11-04*

Developer creates a good game, then ruins it by imposing long, noisy and very irritating adverts between each play. I know developers need income, but please give users the option to BUY the game and get rid of adverts. Would earn five stars then…

### 5/5 — Moeilijk

*2025-09-27, version 1.14*

### 2/5 — Не ищет игроков в сети

*2025-02-23*

Не возможно подключиться к онлайн игре. Те нет по факту поиска противника в инете. А пройдя все уровни на начальном этапе нет продвижения далее, становиться скучно играть, пропадает интерес(((

### 5/5 — 更新
