### 2/5 — Developer abandoned?

*2024-05-08, version 5.5.2*

The most “helpful” reviews are 8-9yrs old. I guess that was my first tip. Controls are a bit funky, and apparently not formatted for mobile (buttons cut off at screen edges). No audio, music or sound fx. Overall unpolished, but perhaps pretty good by 2015 standards I suppose. 

Anyway I was getting by, played about 10 levels with no ads and all seemed well. Last level I completed the said “watch ad to unlocked next 3 levels.” Well, every 3 levels isn’t so bad. Buuuuut… pressing watch ad did nothing. So can’t progress, put in the odd position of wishing an ad would play. Judging by the activity, or lack thereof, this probably won’t be addressed or fixed anytime soon. Oh well, promising game for what it’s worth.

### 1/5 — Most levels permenantly locked

*2024-04-15, version 5.5.2*

Game says i have to watch an ad to unlock the next levels, but it won't give me the ad! Ive tried numerous times but i can't unlock the level. I was really looking forward to them

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2019-10-28, version 5.5.2*

Fun game, but the ads are ridiculous. And when I tried to disable them they took my payment but continued to show ads.

### 1/5 — WAY to many ads

*2019-08-25, version 5.5.2*

Fun game but way to many adds and many of them were in Japanese and screamed. Deleted it.

### 1/5 — Werbung

*2019-07-24, version 5.5.2*

Obwohl ich „keine Werbung“ gekauft und bezahlt habe, wird weiter Werbung angezeigt. 
Das muss behoben werden - eigentlich tolles Spiel. Aber nach einem Update weniger Funktionen zu haben und nach Bezahlung keine Besserung, macht aus einem langjährigen, zufriedenen Benutzer einen unzufriedenen.

### 1/5 — Pubs pubs et pubs

*2019-07-02, version 5.5.2*

En fait tu joues mais y a de la pub plus que du jeu!!!!

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2019-06-16*

Whoever created this game is a genius

### 5/5 — Good game

*2019-06-16*

So  good and easy

### 5/5 — Can’t stop

*2019-06-16, version 5.5.2*

Great, addicting game

### 5/5 — Too much fun!

*2019-06-16, version 5.5.2*

I love the challenges and levels.
