I loved it. I know what my violin is. ### 5/5 — A reminder *2024-04-17, version 14.9* Redownloaded this game at 3am after stumbling upon it as a child. Like with many things in life, tackling with a new perspective was enriching. Thank you for sharing. ### 5/5 — A story of epic scale and small heartfelt moments. *2023-11-12, version 14.9* What can I say but that I enjoyed it. The game play was simple but delightful. The physics was well presented. Loved it. ### 5/5 — Hope *2023-05-26, version 14.9* This game is gorgeous and passionate I would like to share details about it but i would spoil it ### 5/5 — Wholesome *2023-05-23, version 14.9* This is the most beautiful wholesome and memorable game I have ever played or ever will, I expect. So hard to describe... just so good! Is it a game? A story? Both? You decide! ### 5/5 — Nostalgia *2023-02-03, version 14.9* I played this game first when it came out on my old iPod touch. I thought this game was so cool and the music was what made it cool. There was no jumping mechanic then. Just the “story.” My brother and I played it together and got stuck on MANY of the parts young kids would expect to get stuck on. Just recently, I remembered this game existed. I wracked my brain for the name and came across it one night and played through it. Great experience. Brought back the nostalgia of staying up late and trying to beat the one area to hear more of the story. The stories after kinda hit home about how the game does feel. Thank you for this game! ### 5/5 — Quite Good *2023-01-13, version 14.9* A surprisingly sentimental and thoughtful game. Humorous too. ### 3/5 — Nice idea but not fun *2023-01-06, version 14.9* Interesting idea, nicely written, simple, minimal gameplay but just becomes too difficult. Even if you get past the difficult bits you don’t feel you enjoyed it, or used skill, it’s just a frustrating chore of ‘rapid clicking and hoping for the best’. I gave up on it fairly quickly. ### 5/5 — Great storytelling *2022-12-22* I’ve always been fascinated with the concept of multiple dimensions and Flatland is a favorite book of mine. This game was a wonderful surprise, a whole new way to experience the story and think about our perceived reality. ### 5/5 — A wonderful connective experience *2022-12-12, version 14.9* Fun . Challenging . Inspiring . A Journey worth taking . ### 5/5 — Great game *2022-10-12, version 14.9* Great music and fun game plus cool story ### 4/5 — Great game but no longer works on my device *2022-10-02, version 14.9* I am on an iPhone 8 with IOS 11 and the game now crashes on launch, the compatibility section is outdated at least for the older phones and operating system updates. I just wish apps wouldn’t just flat out destroy themselves on older phones like they all seem to be doing. ### 5/5 — Creativity inbound is “A Noble Circle”!!! *2022-09-11, version 14.5* Most engaging app/game of the year! ### 5/5 — Such an important game, work of art, communication *2022-09-11* This is for everyone. This is a thing to help you think and to feel. Take your time. Enjoy the writing and the shapes. This might be what you need to find yourself, just a little bit. Still thinking about my violin and my sanctuary. And my dimension. Thank you for making this. ### 2/5 — Excellent idea, not-so-good execution *2022-08-27, version 14.5* This game takes me to the square one every time leave the game!! ### 5/5 — Fabulous! *2022-08-24, version 14.5* This is fantastic, I love it so much. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — does this not work anymore? *2025-09-23, version 14.9* 2025.09.22: was wanting to download this for a very long time, and I figured after the latest iOS update, it would’ve been the best time… But it seems to hang and crash, is anyone else having this issue? Thanks in advance..! ### 1/5 — Unusable *2025-03-26, version 14.9* Force closes at start up ### 1/5 — Hard *2024-03-01, version 14.9* Am I stupid? I can’t get past the opening bit. ### 1/5 — One Dimensional *2022-08-30, version 14.5* Literally the most pointless game I have found yet ### 1/5 — Why.. *2021-04-15, version 14.1* Finished the game in ~15 min, thought there would be more but... no. Also, frustrating mechanics and annoyingly small gaps to get your little circle through with time pressure and clunky movement was just... ugh. I enjoyed a dark room and the ensign tremendously, but this just let me down. ### 1/5 — Nothing like any of the other games *2020-03-29, version 13.3* This is an action game, not an rpg. But i wish the dev all the luck in the world. ### 1/5 — Pretentious game with tedious gameplay *2018-08-05, version 13.3* Pretentious game with tedious gameplay. ### 1/5 — Dead *2017-12-03, version 9.1* No longer works. Tried reloading. Nothing. Developer's website has no help options, only some prose and poem rubbish. No options for communication. I've deleted it. ### 1/5 — MAJOR concern *2017-11-18, version 9.1* So, I downloaded the app and everything went smoothly but when I went to open it the icon had these red circles on it? They looked like blood or something smudged. I still opened the app and was greeted with a black screen and record static that eventually cut out and crashed and went back to my home screen. Did something go wrong? Is this an update, can it no longer be played? I REALLY want answers. It's scary. I had really high hopes. ### 1/5 — Boring *2017-10-31, version 9.1* Big fan of Dark Room and Ensign but I didn't find this enjoyable to play at all, got bored of reading the rambling text and found the jerky gameplay difficult and annoying. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — does this not work anymore? *2025-11-15, version 15.1* 2025.11.14: |_| latest update 2025.09.22: was wanting to download this for a very long time, and I figured after the latest iOS update, it would’ve been the best time… But it seems to hang and crash, is anyone else having this issue? Thanks in advance..! ### 5/5 — Lovely time *2025-09-30, version 14.9* Very peaceful and creative game ### 5/5 — Big fan *2025-09-05, version 14.9* This game is short but I love it. I redownloaded it because I was thinking about the concept of the 4th dimension and how we would perceive it. I guess like the flatlanders, I’m confused. Unlike them I’m not scared. Big fan of the game developers. ### 5/5 — I’m a baby *2025-05-06, version 14.9* Love was definitely put in This game and I love that ### 5/5 — Loved it *2025-03-15, version 14.9* It was a wonderful experience, thank you for creating this. I wish to see more from you! ### 5/5 — Freaking amazing *2025-03-14, version 14.9* Like this game is the best game I ever played honestly, I really enjoyed reading all the little details and notes and pictures.😁 ### 5/5 — Another title with a genuine story *2025-01-07, version 14.9* While the game isn’t long, I enjoy having stories that are concise and have an ending to them. It’s like having a book you can open, finish and return to with the return feeling like a burden. Starting many games these days feels like it’s going to be a burden getting started and having that huge laundry list of things to do again. But games made by this artist are concise and memorable, and I’ll leave my review the same way. Thank you for letting me enjoy your game again. ### 5/5 — Hope *2024-11-18, version 14.9* This is crazy the game couldve had a bit more but it was so fun and engaging I loved the story the end confused me but did you have to get me again lol anyway this is a good engaging game ### 5/5 — A good mix of humor and good message *2024-05-20, version 14.9* The first time I realized this was more than a silly game was when the square spun super fast and appeared to be a circle. I don’t entirely know why, but I found that to be very touching. The (anti)story is nice, the game is fun, the mechanics are smooth, and the overall experience is good. The temporary difficulty setting is very helpful, allowing to make a particularly difficult obstacle easier without the entire rest of the game being easy. The music at the end was very nice as well. I got this for free several years back, and never played it until now. I’m glad I did though, as I’m not sure I’d understand the deeper meaning of this game back then. But now that I’ve played it, I’m so glad I got it. So thanks for making this neat game. Below has a partial spoiler: I would love a sequel of some sort. Maybe about the friend (his name slipped my mind), or the society that they built. I would definitely pay the 1-3 bucks for that. ### 5/5 — Very insightful *2024-05-17, version 14.9* Doesn’t push any particular idea, just gives you something to think about. Very nicely put together. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
