### 1/5 — Erstes Level Kostenlos danach nicht mehr

*2024-08-04*

Das erste Level, was in etwa nach 3 Minuten erledigt sein dürfte ist kostenlos die weiteren 3 Level mit höherem Schwierigkeitsgrad kosten je 0,99 Cent. Das war’s dann auch mit dem Spiel. Spielspaß alles in allem wohl ne halbe Stunde für stolze 3 €.

### 1/5 — 현질 유도 덕지덕지임 ㅋㅋ

*2023-11-10*

레벨이 쉬움 중간 어려움 극악 있는데 중간 이후로는 결제해야 할 수 잇음 ㅋㅋ

### 2/5 — Not good enough to justify paywall

*2024-01-26*

If you want anything except easy, you have to pay, and even though its very cheap i dont think its worth it. The actual game is hard to 
look at and would greatly benefit from a little buffer area to store the gears to declutter the screen. The game window is weirdly sized and somehow doesn't feel centred, and if the app is asking for money to continue without these rather simple QOL features missing i dont think its worth.

### 4/5 — meh

*2024-07-09*

it's not bad but could use some polish 
paywall is cheap and game has no ads so i don't mind

### 4/5 — Neat game but requires a newer phone

*2023-06-29*

The game looks harder than it is, so I didn't get stuck on any levels and mostly play medium/hard because max is more tedious than it is difficult. My main problem with the game is that it isn't optimized for older phones (playing on an iPhone 8 Plus) and frequently lags and stutters after prolonged play, and gets uncomfortably hot in my hand to the point of crashing if multiple levels are played in a row. Because of this, it also drains my battery very quickly

### 5/5 — A different and unusual game.

*2024-10-24*

I always wanted a game that has to do with moving gears. And now I’ve finally found such. This game has NO adds and I sure don’t miss them. Not going to lie about this, this is a twisted mind bending challenge of a game. If you thought Dragon’s Lair is difficult then you are in for a wake up call about that. Totally rad they let you play with the screen the way you want it on iPad. Hey other companies you could learn something from that. This game needs to be found by more people so tell your friends about it.

Totally rad they let you play with the screen the way you want it on iPad. Hey other companies you could learn something from that. The only thing I’d like to see in an update would be to automatically save so you could come back and pick up where you left off like just about every game has. This game needs to be found by more people so tell your friends about it.

### 5/5 — This is good

*2023-09-21*

Usually I wait a couple of weeks e reviewing or purchasing

I purchased within two days. A really nice and relaxing game. The EASY mode is good but the other modes are superb. 

Highly recommend this people who like puzzles that are unique!

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2023-07-11*

Pretty fun! It’s a different game and haven’t played something like this
