### 1/5 — Unplayable : controls do not work

*2020-01-28, version 3.1.2*

This game is a neat idea, but I the controls do not work. After swiping and swiping on the control pad I gave up and uninstalled. I wish I could get a refund.

### 5/5 — Have it on Steam

*2019-06-10, version 3.1.2*

This game is amazing. I have it on Steam, and it’s so good it was an instant download when I saw it in the App Store. It is a puzzle game, so be ready to slow it down a bit.

### 5/5 — A gem

*2019-05-11*

Truly — a treasure of a game from top to bottom.

### 5/5 — Good Fun

*2018-10-26, version 3.0.15*

Nice.

### 5/5 — One of the best puzzle games available on mobile.

*2018-10-22, version 3.0.9*

Well worth $15, let alone $3.

### 1/5 — Unresponsive

*2018-10-21, version 3.0.9*

Can not get past the opening screen. Works great until the tutorial tip pops up (blue outline with a dog paw that’s swiping). Then the dog stops moving. I can tap and make him bark but he won’t move any directions.

**Developer response:** it could have been a screen issue with your iOS device... we seem to have fixed all of them. Please give it another try!

### 1/5 — New update broke game on iPhone XS Max.

*2018-10-21, version 3.0.9*

The game is no longer playable on my iPhone XS Max after the latest update.

**Developer response:** it should work well now! (even better that it ever could)

### 5/5 — Sweet Hardcore yet casual puzzler

*2018-10-20, version 3.0.7*

This game is a hardcore puzzler, but because you also have infinite redos on moves (all the way to the start) for every level, it’s also somewhat casual. Therefore, it hits that sweet spot between hardcore and casual that makes a game addicting.

Quick list of good, bad and neutral:
+randomly generated levels
+you’re a dog trying to save your elderly master! Isn’t that cute?!?
+learn-as-you-go type game — no tutorial, yet patterns and mechanics are extremely easy to learn due to redo button and this gives the game a sense of discovery, similar to Road Not Taken, another game.
+offline, fully premium, zero IAP
+flawless controls
+PC port. PC quality.
+does not make device hot
-drains battery fast
-not a portrait game. Bummer.
-level 15, the final level, is exceedingly difficult. It can only be done with full hearts, both a healing potion and a bomb, and some RNG enemy placement luck. Frustrating.
~while levels are randomly generated, there are boss levels that are similar enough to each other for you to notice. Might make it repetitive for some.
~infinite redos, but if you die three times, a ghost comes to kill you. You can’t make quick moves, or you might die. Once you die three times you start over.

Tip: you can swap the start and finish points. This gives the game even more depth.

### 1/5 — Broken on xs max

*2018-10-20, version 3.0.7*

.

**Developer response:** should be working fine now!

### 5/5 — Bought twice

*2018-10-19*

Originally bought on steam after lets play with Jonathan blow. Loved it and naturally had to buy it a second time for mobile where I felt it really beloved in the first place
