Great job!! ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2014-02-06, version 1.1.0* Amazingly fun and addictive! The lighting and physics are beautiful, and the controls are so intuitive. ### 5/5 — Fun little game *2013-11-29, version 1.1.0* Nothing particularly fresh here, but gameplay is clean. Movement is intuitive. Physics are well done. Worth the price and time. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2013-11-26, version 1.1.0* This app has great graphics and easy control keeps my lil one busy for hours ### 5/5 — Surprisingly delightful *2013-11-23, version 1.1.0* Beautiful graphics and sound, sets interesting mood, creative gameplay ### 5/5 — Makes Angrybird a copy-cat *2013-11-20, version 1.1.0* This game is amazing. It actually makes you think how you are going to make your next move. Unlike angry birds point & shoot system. Pretty challenging...but needs more level tho. Keep up the good work. 💪💪 ### 5/5 — I kept an open mind and was not disappointed *2013-11-19, version 1.1.0* If I were to say that this game is like Angry birds I would be lying because it's better, in my opinion. This game is pretty amazing, fun, challenging, and cool because it has a fun little story, it's mechanics run quick and smooth, and it is much more challenging than angry birds. I love this game and I hope that more levels come out! ### 5/5 — Clever and addictive game *2013-11-19, version 1.1.0* At first I thought it was like angry birds. Yet this game proved me wrong. It's an original of its kind. It's a perfect logic and puzzle game that everyone would love. ### 5/5 — Great new take on physics puzzlers *2013-11-19, version 1.1.0* Graphics and sound are well done in this new take on physics puzzlers! Challenging but not too frustrating. ### 5/5 — Great physics game! *2013-11-19, version 1.1.0* Kind of a cross between Angry Birds and some other physics based games. Very well done. Characters are cute, graphics are good and the physics are spot on. ### 5/5 — Something new *2013-11-19, version 1.1.0* Great concept. It's something original and works very smoothly. I'm only on level 14, but I'm looking forward to the rest of this game. ### 5/5 — VAMPIRE KILLERS! *2013-11-19, version 1.1.0* What a fantastic game! While it doesn't exactly parallel Angry Birds, there are definite similarities. However, Lums is so much better than Angry Birds. The mood, the music, the general ambiance, and the discharging of the attack (no sling-shot) are all different. Plus you're killing vampires, not little piggies. Lums is pure genius. If Angry Birds is 2.99, Lums is worth at least double that! ### 5/5 — Love this game *2013-11-19, version 1.1.0* There are games like it, but nothing as good that I've seen. This game is really fun, I would suggest it to anyone who likes the angry birds style of game. ### 5/5 — Great game *2013-11-18, version 1.1.0* Am I the only one to wright a review just to get the nukes? Super cool better than angry birds because you can control the "birds" ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 3/5 — Overpriced *2013-08-04, version 1.0.1* As the game stands today, $1.99 is too much. I love the gameplay and the lighting effects are stunning. But I got 3 stars on all 48 levels in under 2 hrs of gameplay. More levels are definitely needed. I expect far more out of a game for this price. ### 3/5 — Interesting puzzles *2013-07-27, version 1.0.1* This game is pretty good, & most of the puzzles are challenging. My only complaints are: 1- the controls are rather loose (I need to move my finger much farther than I expect in order to move a Lum on screen), and 2- I feel that $.99 would have been a more appropriate price. ### 3/5 — Eh. Decent. *2013-07-26, version 1.0.1* It's a ripoff of Countre Jour but with alot less creativity or ambience. Some talent here, but I wish they would do something besides another lazy physics engine game. That's the last thing the app store needs more of. ### 4/5 — Cute lil game😈 *2014-06-19, version 1.1.0* I'm NOT a big game person. But I do enjoy playing "Angry Birds". Some have said that this game is like that...I find it hard to believe. I'm finding it a bit more "confusing" on how you are suppose to MOVE the Lums! You DONT FLING them like in ABs, so right now I'm just moving them along with my finger. Maybe that's NOT how it's to be done but it's my way. But cute lil game non the less!! 😈 4 stars b/c of not knowing the game play, fling em, throw em, push em along??? No clue. ### 4/5 — Good Game... *2014-06-19, version 1.1.0* Wish it ha creepy music and that the monsters didn't look so cute. Mk them more sinister looking and turn it ash and blow away when the light hits them ### 4/5 — Pretty Original!! *2014-06-19, version 1.1.0* I played a lot of knock em down and watch em blow up but this app is very original and addicting as you go. Plus the design and graphics are awesome as well! Well done! ### 4/5 — Similar to Angry Birds only more gruesome. *2014-05-17, version 1.1.0* I like this game. I like the vampire theme here. It is a bit touchy control wise on my iPad Air. The audio and graphics are top notch. Again my small gripe is my Air touchscreen not being as responsive as it is with other touch side scrollers I own. A recommended game .In my opinion,it is on a Angry Birds concept as far as launching a character into a level to cause destruction to achieve success. ### 4/5 — Decent game *2014-01-01, version 1.1.0* Not the most original game out there, but it sure beats Angry Birds in terms of fun and polish. If you haven't had enough of these paper-thin physics puzzles, then this game will keep you entertained for a while. More than worth its asking price. Not 5 stars because, well, I think it's us, the users enabling this sort of cloning and rehashing, so 4 stars is the highest I'll rate any of these "like X but with Y" games. ### 4/5 — Intriguingly entertaining *2013-08-02, version 1.0.1* Most games like this are nori after a few levels but this one keeps me playing, great game play and mechanics. ### 4/5 — Beautiful Graphics *2013-07-25, version 1.0.1* Beautiful games, intriguing physics, however the controls are a bit odd and require a lot of practice ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This Developer Should Release A New Version! *2020-04-03, version 1.2.1* And here’s the market for this game; adults. By this I mean, all the people who have simply had enough of Superheroes, Harry Potter, Anime, Mario Bro’s, Pokémon, Disney Characters, Unicorns etc. • These people have looked behind the curtain and know the Wizard of Oz is no wizard at all. • They value functionality over flashiness. • They’re not trying to impress anyone. They just want something mentally stimulating, a bit challenging without all of the (pardon the expression) ‘crap’. A not-so-subtle reminder ... please leave this game as is or just update it so it works on all the latest iDevices. iPhone User Since Day One Release of iPhone 1. My Highest Recommendation! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Awesome *2017-04-10, version 1.2.1* Love this game ### 5/5 — Unexpectedly awesome *2016-04-30, version 1.2.0* I can’t remember the last time I was so surprised by a game. I almost didn’t get it based on the screenshots that made it look like another Angry Birds clone. I am so tired of that genre. Lums is very different. You have precise control of the flights of several different types of “Lums”. One just knocks things over, one turns bricks to glass, one reverses gravity, etc. Your goal is to manipular the environment so that light hits vampires that are scattered throughout the level. It’s usually not too difficult to finish a level, but to finish a level while collecting all three stars is an entirely different situation. I usually find myself thinking, “This is impossible!” until I have my “Ah ha!” moment and realize what I have to do. I really hope they continue to release new levels. This is possibly my favorite iOS gams of 2013. ### 5/5 — Better than Angry Birds by a long shot. *2015-12-23, version 1.1.0* Being able to guide your character makes the puzzles more interesting and creates harder challenges. ### 5/5 — Similar concept to Angry Birds *2015-06-28, version 1.1.0* I like this game better than Angry Birds. I like the dark theme. And this game hasn't crashed once on me and I'm at the third world (out of four). ### 5/5 — Love it! *2014-06-23, version 1.1.0* Hits that fine balance where it's easy enough to be lots of fun but still a challenge. Such a fun story, too! ### 5/5 — Fun Illuminating Game *2014-06-20, version 1.1.0* Part "mad" birds, part puzzler. Fun controls, great graphics, and engaging gameplay. I recommend it for an easy paced puzzler with good physics! ### 5/5 — Surprisingly good. *2014-06-19, version 1.1.0* Thinking it was nothing more than an Angry Birds knockoff, I was pleasantly surprised when the gameplay became addictive. I have only played the first episode and was pretty disappointed that it went so fast, but still a good game. ### 5/5 — Hours of fun *2014-06-19, version 1.1.0* Great job with trying to create a successful spin off from Angry birds or any other physics based game which involves the launching of a character into different levels. Graphics and sound effects are substantial. ### 5/5 — Awesome physics *2014-06-19, version 1.1.0* I love how creative and original the use of physics is in this game.
