### 5/5 — Klassiker

*2026-06-15*

Auflösung nicht mehr ganz auf dem Stand der Dinge, aber immer noch spielbar. Absoluter Klassiker.

### 5/5 — El mejor

*2026-02-02, version 1.30*

Este es el mejor juego al que jugué hace años. Lo había perdido y llevo mucho tiempo intentando encontrarlo. No sé si seguirá funcionando pero vale todo mi oro

### 5/5 — Love this game!!

*2024-09-22, version 1.30*

I have always loved this game!  The gameplay and the sound design!  Breaks my heart a bit to see it no longer in development.

### 4/5 — Enjoyable

*2022-12-21, version 1.30*

I’ve been playing for a while, and I’m finding it good fun, but I’d like to know how I can replay a level where I’ve not managed to earn a good star. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thank you

### 4/5 — How to change power ups

*2022-11-02, version 1.30*

It would be nice to change the tailsman when having trouble winning the game level but I can’t find the way to do this feature. Especially when I’m not able to make the previous one to get the job done. Please advise if possible. Thanks. The other game with the same name, well sort of, is really hard but I’ve made it to the very end several times but I don’t like having to “Try it again” too many times. You don’t have many reviews and those were written several years ago. Many other game apps are great because the developers make sure it’s easier to win so players CAN RELAX and not worry about having to start over again and again. Not everyone has the time and the money realizing the hard levels are a bust.

### 5/5 — Eurohistorian

*2021-08-02, version 1.30*

Great game. Lots of replay value.

### 5/5 — Arkend

*2021-02-25, version 1.30*

Intriguing and delight, my friends!

### 5/5 — Thank you guys !

*2021-02-06, version 1.30*

Being an i-phone user for the past two years, made me forget how to play this game, lol💜😭🐲💜. But now i remember how to, & i have really enjoyed it in the past, so beaucoup kudos, it’s a great one, & gorgeously done !  i don’t mind paying for this app, it’s terrific, & challenging enough !  Thank you !

### 3/5 — Just OK

*2021-01-15, version 1.30*

It’s an okay game, but the different talismans you get aren’t really much different.  And, far from challenging, you simply replay a level until you get a lucky “draw”.... then you don’t even have to think.  The few tile locks, etc. are forgettable.  The timer system pushes you to play quickly, so the nice art/music can’t be enjoyed.  Not worth the purchase price.

### 5/5 — El mejor juego jamás hecho.

*2020-03-09, version 1.30*

Es el juego más divertido al que he jugado en el teléfono jamás. He jugado como 6 o 7 veces a este juego. Lo tengo en los teléfonos desde hace lo mismo 8 años y siempre me encanta jugarlo.
