### 2/5 — Uuuugggghh

*2017-09-16, version 1.2.7*

It a good concept but the controls are horrible it reads me going up sideways

### 3/5 — Fun, but those controls...

*2017-09-03, version 1.2.7*

Add an option for switch to swipe-only. Two at once don't work well. You might consider making entire screen an active controller.

### 2/5 — Glitchy but fun.

*2016-09-19, version 1.2.2*

I do enjoy playing this game, but the "present" the game gives you ever 1 1/2 hours only appears every third or fourth time I open it. Rather frustrating.

### 2/5 — Frustrating glitches

*2016-08-12, version 1.2.2*

I have been enjoying this game very much lately, but I keep coming across very frustrating glitches.

I make it past level 25 all the time, yet it keeps saying my highest score is level 17. Due to this, I don't have any of the new characters which I should have earned, and the game is getting very frustrating because of it.
I've passed these levels over and over again, which takes lots of time, yet for no reward. I'm considering deleting the app due to this, as the game gets dull using the monk over and over, never earning anything more.

### 4/5 — Fun but sometimes impossible.

*2016-07-27, version 1.2.2*

Love this game! Would be better if I didn't get screwed over by the enemies putting me in a corner every level

### 4/5 — Good puzzler

*2016-06-16, version 1.2.2*

Fun and stuff but the controls could be better

### 3/5 — Ads should be much better - otherwise really fun

*2016-06-16, version 1.2.2*

I'm all for making your game free and making money off ads, but come on... If you request another free life you shouldn't buffer for 3 minutes. Super frustrating. I just want my free life!!!

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2016-06-14, version 1.2.2*

A must get addictive game.

### 3/5 — Good but needs fixed

*2016-06-12, version 1.2.2*

Great game. Very fun/addicting but 1 problem. It will not let me unlock other characters even though I have reached the level (and beyond) to unlock them. Fix this problem and it gets 5 stars!!!

### 4/5 — Very creative👍

*2016-06-12, version 1.2.2*

Well thought out but could make it so enemies can be hurt by spikes.

### 5/5 — it's aight

*2016-06-11, version 1.2.2*

mhmm

### 5/5 — Fun

*2016-06-11, version 1.2.2*

Good gameplay, ads are there naturally, but in an un-intrusive and fair way

### 4/5 — It's fun

*2016-06-11, version 1.2.2*

It's fun in a challenging way. Four stars because the weapons can be confusing to use ,and they don't work sometimes.

### 1/5 — Needs changes

*2019-04-17, version 1.2.7*

perspective needs to change, it looms “alright” from the screenshots, but in gameplay, it’s very hard to tell what row you’re in because id the perspective, just have the camera in the front, not to mention: it makes it look very cheap, as pip looks strange from the angle it’s in. the game also needs a graphical update, just loops plain old bad. the controls are also lagged, leading to stupid deaths.

### 1/5 — So hard it’s only pay to win

*2019-02-24, version 1.2.7*

I’d rather kill myself then play this for a day

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2017-08-23, version 1.2.7*

The dev is too lazy (or greedy) to adequately describe what the items for (shield?) and I die needlessly. Too many ads for it to be fun.

### 1/5 — Don't bother !!

*2017-08-16, version 1.2.7*

Do not waste your time.  You will just delete it with all the games ads and lack of game time

### 1/5 — Terrible.

*2017-07-24, version 1.2.7*

Gameplay is low quality. Makes you watch a video to save your progress! How cheap! Haha. Uninstalled.

### 1/5 — This game is terrible

*2017-01-28, version 1.2.5*

This game is terrible and every time I die I have to close the tab and reopen it and every time I play it freezes

### 1/5 — Sigh..

*2016-11-24, version 1.2.5*

I like what I've seen-
Interesting mechanics, a creative idea.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to see very much.
Every time I open the game, it's a matter of minutes until it freezes, irreversibly.
I've tried deleting and re-downloading the game, and it was ineffective. 
I will not change this review until the issue is fixed. I will keep the game, in hopes that it will be playable soon.

### 1/5 — Sorry but this is not fun  😔

*2016-06-07, version 1.2.2*

The controls are not very responsive and the character jumps are a bit floaty and slow. It doesn't feel nice to move. I liked the music though.

### 1/5 — Why?

*2016-05-28, version 1.2.2*

Got to 30 TWICE and didn't unlock anyone

### 1/5 — It's so bad

*2016-04-10, version 1.2.2*

Don't get this game
