This game really, really, pwns. The animation is great, the concepts are great, the graphics are great, and it's a new spin on a classic. Great job, otascube.

### 2/5 — Not great

*2011-04-26*

Good concept, bit boring, repetitive.

If Dan-Ball want success they should bring out either the powder game or stick ranger on iPod. We know they can use the powder engine because they made the planet simulator
