### 5/5 — Love it.

*2020-03-21, version 1.7*

Simple but challenging and fun.

### 5/5 — Real Gem

*2019-09-08*

Brilliantly designed game that is challenging and compelling in equal measure.

### 5/5 — Elegantly designed masterpiece

*2018-07-16*

I've been playing this regularly for years. Its simple but novel mechanics make for nearly infinite repeatability. Great daily challenge mode, too!

### 5/5 — Noice

*2018-01-09*

Really good stripped down roguelike thing.

### 5/5 — Fantastic little rogue-like

*2015-12-04, version 1.6*

Easy to learn, hard to master. I've been playing the Daily Challenge every day for a few months now.

### 5/5 — One more run!

*2015-06-03*

Keeps me coming back for one more try. Fun and challenging.

### 3/5 — Fun concept, awkward controls

*2015-04-16*

The base concept here is great. Challenging, but not excessively so. The controls, however, are awkward. Swipe-to-move is not ideal here, especially when moving several squares in the same direction. Yes, you can hold the swipe to keep moving, but then it's easy to go too far. Tap-to-move would suit this game much better.
