*2022-09-10, version 2.1.6*

Ima keep it simple and straight, this game is super fun.Not only is this original, the layout of the game is original.The only thing I’d consider a “issue” (if you’d even call it that) is that the more you progress in the game, the more expensive upgrades are.Rather than that little nitpick, this game is amazing, and it’s good to pass time.
