### 5/5 — Gamer approved platforming fun

*2019-04-02, version 2.1.0*

I’m a legit gamer. If you’d have told me I could enjoy a gorgeous and unique game w one finger I’d of called you a liar, but here I am endorsing this perfectly paced puzzle. Please do yourself a favor and discover the joy of winning.

### 4/5 — Fun puzzle platformer, a little buggy

*2018-04-08, version 2.1.0*

Overall, I enjoyed this game, but it has annoying bug where it sometimes will get stuck in the screen where you can choose which level to play. The workaround is to kill and relaunch the app. This happened 3 or 4 times over the course of completing the entire game. (This is on an iPad Air 2 with iOS 11.2.)

That said, I would still recommend this game to anyone who’s a fan of the genre. It has a somewhat original concept where your character can walk on any surface, and whatever surface it is currently walking on becomes “down.” The levels have a nice progression from easy to hard (but never become super difficult). I also appreciated the lack of adds and in-game purchases.

### 4/5 — More illi please

*2018-03-29, version 2.1.0*

This is a simple and addictive game.   It is challenging enough to keep your attention.  The different challenges on each level are nice.   I want more stages please.

### 5/5 — Nice puzzler but short

*2017-10-11, version 2.1.0*

It's 60 levels and a lot of fun… but it only lasted a couple days of casual play.

### 5/5 — Tranquil and challenging at the same time

*2017-08-30, version 2.1.0*

This game is pretty fun. Little illi is so cute and the background noise of the game is soothing so you can focus on the challenges of jumping and collecting gems. In a way it reminds me of the Monument Valley games because they are also calming but challenge your brain. Some of the challenges in this game are quite impossible but you can always try it, and then go to the next level if you've temporarily given up! :)

### 5/5 — Beautiful, yet adorable.

*2017-08-24, version 2.1.0*

I loved playing through the levels, trying the different challenges for each one. The little creature is so cute, but the game overall is just gorgeous. I was so disappointed when I finished all the levels! I hope there are more levels added, I'd be willing to pay for them. That's how much I loved this game!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2017-08-13, version 2.1.0*

This is really fun and makes you think. Love trying to figure out how to get all the badges. Cute too!

### 5/5 — Very addicting, great game!

*2017-08-10, version 2.1.0*

Check this game out because it was the free app of the week, and it has been nothing but a pleasure ever cents. Super addicting, fun, challenging, and all-around a great game!

### 4/5 — Cute and fun

*2017-08-10, version 2.1.0*

My only real complaint is that the constant shifting of the camera makes me dizzy after playing a while - I wish it was a bit more zoomed out, or at least less jerky. Otherwise it's fun, a little tricky but not frustratingly so, and I like the different goals that encourage you to approach a level in several different ways.

### 5/5 — Very original

*2017-08-05, version 2.1.0*

I enjoyed this one quite a bit. Original puzzles, well designed controls and beautiful art.
