Depends *2017-09-02, version 4.0* I have to admit, I just LOVE the theme of this app!! Perfectly fine. There is calming zen music, and the graphics and story are good! It's just (sometimes) glitchy! When you are trying to figure out a puzzle, it won't let you rotate blocks to complete the puzzle! Although this app is calming and impressive, the glitches DEFINITELY need to be fixed! ### 4/5 — Very good *2015-11-06, version 3.2* This game is an awesome puzzle game with enough difficulty only thing it needs is a tutorial LV then this would get five star from me ### 3/5 — Instructions HERE: *2014-10-09, version 3.2* TOUCH THE "HELP" ICON ON MAIN SCREEN! If you can't figure that out, this game may be too hard for you! But simply- Rotate the rings around the squid to make a path with the symbols from the squid to the outside. The symbols show where the path will go. If you see a fork, the path will split where the fork goes. When you tap the squid, it will start reaching like fluid along the path trying to find a way from center to outside the outermost ring. The more of the squid that can get outside, the better. If you can get more than one path complete, you get better score. Try the zen mode to experiment. It is interesting, but the music in some places are disturbing and sounds like "die, die, die, die". Just me. ### 2/5 — Fix it... *2014-03-01, version 3.1* This game is broken, no mode other then zen which is a random mode of the same level works. It seems interesting, I like the concept and ascetic, but unless it fixes the broken mode, attack and time, then this game can't earn a five stars much less three ### 2/5 — Beautiful but confusing. *2013-09-20, version 3.0* The graphics are great. The squid are cute. The story is weird but I was willing to live with that. The puzzles don't make any sense...and there is no form of tutorial. This has potential but also a ways to go. ### 4/5 — Addicting but lack of hints *2013-03-01, version 2.2.2* The graphics are great. The puzzles are addicting but the hints don't really help. Currently im stuck on one level and i just cant solve it. Could you install walkthroughs? ### 3/5 — Click help to find out how to play *2013-02-28, version 2.2.2* So I figured out how to play but its just not satisfying or fun to play. It's just not my kind of puzzle game. I would recommend a tutorial at the beginning for people who can't seem to find the help button. It's wasn't obvious what to do. ### 4/5 — Good game *2013-02-28, version 2.2.2* I sometimes have an issue with wheels disappearing when I spin them, but otherwise a very addicting game. ### 3/5 — Huh? *2013-02-28, version 2.2.2* Graphics are beautiful but its hard to understand how to play the game ### 4/5 — Good game *2013-02-28, version 2.2.2* I like the game a lot, it's fluid, good looking, good graphics and overall just a fun game but it's not full screen for iPhone 5 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Fix *2025-01-12* Need fix glitch. 7 years since the last posted review ### 1/5 — Not even playable *2021-10-09, version 4.0* I have not one time been able to move the rings. Everytime no matter what, they just go back to their previous positions. This is ridiculous ### 1/5 — UX needs an upgrade. Very unintuitive. *2017-08-12, version 4.0* UX needs an upgrade. Very unintuitive. ### 1/5 — No tutorial *2014-07-09, version 3.2* The game seems like it might be fun but there is NO instruction on how to play, what the game mechanics are, no tutorial, nothing. You are left on your own to figure it out by trial and error. very frustrating. I deleted it after 5 minutes. ### 1/5 — Bad game *2014-03-01, version 3.1* I usually only write reviews for really bad games and really good games but this one is just too bad to forget if your reading this DO NOT GET THE GAME waste of time. ### 1/5 — Very Poor Quality *2014-03-01, version 3.1* The menu is not intuitive. Zen mode is the only mode that works smoothly. There seems to be no tutorial or directions. The story is very brief and bland. ### 1/5 — ...? *2014-02-28, version 3.1* Time attack does not work and neither does normal hungry squid mode (the button cannot be pressed). Only zen mode works. ### 1/5 — What do I do? *2014-02-28, version 3.1* I've tried going into attack mode and nothing happened??! Is this a bug or just a bad game? I don't know. ### 2/5 — Help has been replaced by ad *2016-11-24, version 3.2* This is a fun idea, but the fourth level has only one exit possible, and even with 98% time bonus, this level cannot be passed. Also, there is no help available, as it appears the help button has been replaced with advertising. ### 2/5 — No direction *2014-07-08, version 3.2* The game spends a LOT of time telling it's story and no time describing how to play it. I was so confused. Maybe if I spent some more time trying to figure it out I would have enjoyed it, but I lost patience. I'm sure the game is great, but if you don't know how to play it, you lose interest. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Bug. Fixes needed *2021-12-26, version 4.0* Plz add some bugs fixes plz because the wheel in every puzzle doesn’t work right ### 5/5 — Fun *2015-07-04, version 3.2* Fun to play if you understand how to play. Directions: Turn the rings to make exit paths for the ink and tap purple stuff for bonus points ### 5/5 — Great game *2013-09-20, version 3.0* Good puzzle game, challenging on many fronts. A little like chess thinking ahead ### 5/5 — Compellingly intelligent *2013-06-26* Compellingly intelligent puzzle game. Very strong game design that already provides excellent gameplay, but has plenty of room to grow. A superior iPhone game. ### 5/5 — Awesome but... *2013-03-01, version 2.2.2* Needs more levels+a level builder ### 5/5 — This game is good *2013-03-01, version 2.2.2* On the earth it is soooooooooooooo frustrating but fun ### 5/5 — iPod 5 support *2013-02-28, version 2.2.2* Please fix the graphics on ipod ### 5/5 — Addictive and Challenging *2013-02-28* Got it free today at appGratis. Worth a try. It's very addictive and this game is creative. ### 5/5 — Relaxing *2013-02-28, version 2.2.2* Good game. An explanation on how to play would have been nice but once you figure it out its awesome ### 5/5 — Great! *2013-02-28, version 2.2.2* Love the game! Hard to figure out at first, but I recommend this game!:) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
