### 3/5 — Can’t Continue

I’m loving the game and would be happy to change the rating to five stars, but I just tried to continue my game and the game just quits out. Fix it and I will change my review. Thank you.

This is a cute side-scrolling infinite runner with an interesting twist. You can collect and use different creatures, each of whom move differently. My favorite is the cat thing. 😀
