### 3/5 — Servers Down

*2023-09-25, version 1.1.0*

i trued to play but it dont work anymore

### 1/5 — Crashes constantly

*2023-04-19, version 1.1.0*

I can't even get into a game to play it and I have an iphone 14 pro max.

### 1/5 — Nope.

*2016-09-27, version 1.1.0*

Do not even download. This game is trying to be a ripoff of the many "impossible" games out there. Also, this game has been copied by someone else, the copy's name is Magsorb, if I'm not wrong.

### 2/5 — Propaganda D+

*2016-02-26, version 1.1.0*

Muita propaganda saltando tela.

### 5/5 — Une tuerie

*2016-02-02, version 1.1.0*

Ce jeu présenté par Steelhorse requiert de l'adresse mais est trop cool !!!! :-)

### 4/5 — -1 for gross ads

*2015-07-28, version 1.1.0*

this is a great game, but i need to drop a whole star based on the creepy ads they show that others don't don't. poor show.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2015-07-12, version 1.1.0*

I hate how you die whenever you bump into the wall or any enemy

### 2/5 — Insomma...

*2015-06-17, version 1.1.0*

Carina l'idea e le musiche mi piacciono, ma...
Il pallino è troppo piccolo, perciò conoscere la posizione esatta è molto (ma molto) difficile. Come si fa a giocare? 
Inoltre il tempo di assorbimento è decisamente più lento della velocità dei nemici, non si ha il tempo materiale di eliminarli!

### 5/5 — X

*2015-05-20, version 1.1.0*

Beautiful, but it more usefull if my progress will bi saved

### 3/5 — Naja

*2015-05-14, version 1.1.0*

Die Spiel Idee ist eigentlich ganz gut ABER wenn ich habe das Gefühl das bei den meisten Karten mein Zeiger Finger zu dick ist und nicht sehen kann wo ich mich grade befinde.
Ich das Gefühl man brauch bei dem Spiel ein durchsichtigen Finger damit die "Kugel" noch sehen kann.
