I don't buy a lot of games off the App Store but I'm glad I got Derrick! Fun, fast, inventive and incredibly energetic it's everything I want from a game! Like sonic, under water...if sonic was a shark and 100% cooler.

### 5/5 — Funky paper craft fun!

*2017-12-11*

I love the art style of this game. All characters are based on very cute looking hand made paper craft models. You swim as a baby shark ‘Derrick’ around the globe eating boxy looking fish, race against time and solve puzzle levels. Really creative, vibrant looking quirky indie game.

### 4/5 — Ecco smashes into the charm of little big planet

*2017-12-11*

Refreshingly great look that draws from the triple A titles of Media Molecule, like little big planet. Except here the art is handmade, not CG. You can feel the scalpels and glue. 

Plays like a modern ecco the dolphin, replacing the meditative charm of the megadrive classic with attitude and sharpness.

### 5/5 — Rad

Rad game can’t stop playing

### 5/5 — Great game

Great fun had a great time  playing

### 5/5 — Great look, even better game.

*2018-11-26*

I love the look of this game. But that would mean nothing if it didn’t play well. It does. It’s got a good challenging curve to it. Addictive in the “just have one more go” sense. Kids love it too.

### 5/5 — Super cool, fun and imaginative

*2018-01-11*

The devastatingly comical back story sets up the mission for this really fun game. The artwork is great and each level is vibrant, fresh and challenging. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Awesome graphics

*2017-12-25*

I can’t say I’m very good at it but this is a cool game. Fast and furious!

### 5/5 — Amazing game!

So much fun to play, and I loved the way the characters looked and the overall feel of the game!

### 5/5 — Properly boss

*2017-12-18*

This is a work of art. A game actually made out of paper! Who would have thought it possible. Ace!

### 5/5 — Bonkers

*2017-12-12*

Unique visual style, bonkers concept, well executed, what more can you ask for? :)

### 5/5 — Fin-tastic!

*2017-12-12*

It’s the look and feel of this game that makes me love it so. Crazy love and detail that is unlike anything else I have seen. Super fun to play AND pretty.

Love it
