### 1/5 — Very tedious and repetitive, avoid play this game.

*2020-04-24, version 1.3*

Looks promising but fails on fire test, the characters and missions are very repetitive, the weapon system it’s a nightmare to set, the player don’t have any f@$k idea how to play or what to do, there is not map, enter to one side and die and the girl character remains death on loading like a stamp on the floor, the inventory management it’s horrible... really I don’t know who is you betta tester but don’t have any idea about a good game.

### 1/5 — Horizontal Ankle Biter...?

*2020-04-17, version 1.2*

Character lays on the ground after the 2nd prayer spot and you can drag it around like a rag doll. Then all scenes show landscape and no character. Character is still there and is being killed and can move around (I guess?) you just can’t see them. 
iPhone 11. Updated.

### 5/5 — Fantastic game

iOS 12.4.5 iPhone 8 64Gb
Плюсы
+Игра интересна;
+Графика красивая.
Минусы
-Кодировка русского языка, выдаёт неверные символы;
-Разрешение не соответсвует устройству надпись «Вы умерли» не влазит в экран и видно только «HE DIE»;
-Кнопки боя и настроек очень маленькие (приходится нажимать мизинцем).

**Developer response:** Thank you for your tips, I will fix them in the following version.
