Deleted ### 3/5 — Decent Kubb game *2018-01-26, version 3.3* Developer offers great support. The game could use some improvements in order to stay on my iPad and have good replay value. ### 5/5 — A fun and competitive game! *2017-04-01, version 3.2* Koob takes a fun yard game and transforms it into a great app. I like that it is fun and the levels get more challenging as you go. Hint: try out the different bombs they really give you a leg up on the competition. ### 2/5 — Has potential, but horrible now *2017-03-19, version 3.2* Only one section of the game is open to play. The rest is pay-to-play. The UI to throw your koobs seems archaic, no bar of some sort to tell you how much power you are throwing with. Please offer some more free play and then I will consider paying for more levels. Or maybe throw some ads in there. ### 3/5 — Needs work. *2015-10-17, version 3.1.1* This game needs pass and play multiplayer. Who wants to sit and play kubb by their self?? It gets boring very fast. It's pretty tough to control the power on the throwing arm, but once I got the hang of it it was ok. Of course it can't be too easy!! It would be nice if you could select which kubb you want to throw the baton at, and move left and right when throwing the downed blocks back across the boundary. In fact, having a right and left control as well as power would be a way to add degree of difficulty without it just feeling like you have no control. Once you get good at pulling the arm back to exactly the same spot every time you can hit the blocks pretty consistently, but when the arm only moves 1/4 of an inch and the sweet spot is like a millimeter shy of full power, every. Single. Time. It just gets old. ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2015-09-04, version 3.1.1* As the previous reviewer states, the game loads shifted into the lower right corner of the screen, so with only 1/3 of the screen visible, you can't really play the game. Also of note..it's pronounced koob, but it's spelled kubb. ### 4/5 — Unplayable won't load *2015-06-14, version 3.1.1* I managed to play,the tutorial. Then the screen shifted into the lower right corner of my iPad and won't restore. A day later it works ok again but did the same thing again. But it righted itself after leaving the game. The game is fun when it works. ### 1/5 — Don't waste your time. *2014-09-19, version 3.0.1* Really hard to get your toss right. The sound effects are awful. Just bad all around ### 5/5 — Amazing *2014-03-16, version 1.1* Wow!! A really fun, addictive game! Great for everyone! ### 5/5 — Viking toss game *2014-03-07, version 1.1* If you like horseshoes, you should give this game a try! ## Frequently asked questions about Koob ### What is Koob?
