### 5/5 — Glock

*2026-02-25*

Good past timer

### 1/5 — No instructions, and…

*2023-05-04*

…the preview video is not an active link, nor can you even copy it to paste it. No idea how to play the game. I’ve deleted it.

### 5/5 — Should be an easy fix but…

*2023-01-30*

Too dark and too small.  Needs to be a full screen option

### 4/5 — Yup- I’ve been avoiding this

*2022-12-14*

Do I need this in my life? Do I need something that’s just a short thing I can ostensibly walk away from? That’s the thing- just one more short bit and all put it down and move on. I’m not the only person who does this, right? Luckily I’m a lousy gamer because I can’t figure out how to make things happen so I’m not trapped too terribly often.
