## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No achievements 😡

*2013-09-23, version 1.5*

The description says there are achievements but there aren't any at all. Very disappointed to have downloaded for nothing 😡

### 1/5 — What happened to the mpoints??????

*2012-10-05, version 1.4*

Since upgrading to iOS 6, the mpoints have disappeared. I have emailed the developer and have yet to receive a reply.

### 2/5 — John's

Total boring crap

### 2/5 — It's Ok

*2013-02-25, version 1.5*

I have played better apps

### 2/5 — Good game, one problem

*2012-12-30, version 1.5*

The game goes well but half way through a stupid ad comes up on the screen and the exit button for the ad is no where to be seen so that ruins the game. Fix it

### 2/5 — Pretty elementary

*2011-11-21, version 1.2*

Half baked app at best, very limited physics. Could be a lot more stimulating.
Note: one day apple will stop asking for my password every time I write a review.

### 3/5 — GOOD TIMES

*2013-06-05, version 1.5*

let the arcade fun flow from your fingertips.  this one does indeed remind me so much of the classic real arcade game.

### 3/5 — It's ok fun

*2012-06-30, version 1.4*

Bored? Then this is a time killer…that's it!

### 3/5 — Ok

*2012-04-30, version 1.4*

It's an ok app.  Wish I cd go right back to the middle each time instead of the awkward shuffle to line up.

### 3/5 — I like skyworks games but think now it's time to upgrade

*2012-04-11, version 1.4*

For iPad 3's retina display. Until then I won't be upgrading to the paid version which my nephew loves. He drove me crazy asking for the different themes. If I'm paying for an app it's going to be compatible with the new iPad, pls upgrade.
Until then 3 stars only sorry!!!
