Great idea, just not able to run it. ### 5/5 — Very entertaining game *2018-10-09, version 1.1.3* This game is by far one of my favorites. It is really hard to put down, but the concept is so simple. In-app purchases are unobtrusive, merely for convenience. ### 5/5 — nice *2018-05-24, version 1.1.3* funny ### 5/5 — I love using this *2017-08-20, version 1.1.3* It cool to get back gbyte on your iPhone ### 4/5 — Good spin on a simple game *2017-07-26, version 1.1.3* Simple yet entertaining ### 5/5 — GREAT GAME!!! *2016-12-04, version 1.1.3* Now, i love idle games. But this one is something ive never seen before. It took 2 of my favorite things, idle games and 2048, and mixed them together! This game is amazing! Ive only gotten to level 6 or 7 so far so i cant really say what to add, but at the same time i cant really see anything to add to this! ### 3/5 — Uh.. *2016-08-16, version 1.1.3* Not really seeing the point here, other than a 'mini game' packaged with 2048. ### 5/5 — Good *2016-07-18, version 1.1.3* Good ## Frequently asked questions about Byte Master ### What is Byte Master?
