The game is good but this version can’t play online.

I have this game on Mobile and PC, it’s a great game for both platforms, although the iOS version doesn’t have internet usability like PC does.

Very playable

Amazing free game. The value in terms of hours of play is unbeatable. Theres no ads, no data required and no tracking. Can't thank the developers enough - really appreciated folks 👍.
