### 2/5 — MANGELHAFT Spielstand wird nicht korrekt gesichert

*2023-09-24*

An sich ein gutes Spiel. Ab ca. Level 8 wird wird der Spielstand jedoch nicht korrekt gesichert und die erspielten Leben gelöscht. Deshalb MAGELHAFT

### 4/5 — Addictive game, but bad level design near the end.

*2023-07-20, version 1.2.0*

I got up to level 10-6 on normal difficulty, and it’s damn near impossible to beat. I don’t feel it’s good level design when beating the level relies too much on randomness and luck instead of skill. I’ve already lost hundreds of times, and feel it would take 10,000 times to just to get lucky.

### 3/5 — Just terrible on M1 iPads :(

*2022-08-15*

I hate to give a “meh” rating to a great game like this, but just tried it on my M1 iPad Air and it just plays and looks slow and low-res on it compared to my 2020 iPad Pro.

The game itself is a very addictive, challenging, stylish and fun marble shooter, and I’d give it 4 or 5 stars for non-M1 machines, but Mumbo Jumbo hasn’t updated it in five years, and the M1 has been around for at least two of those years. M1 iPad Pros came out last year, for Pete’s sake!

The HD label on some versions might give buyers the false impression that they’ll work great on all devices, but sadly that’s not the case. I hope Mumbo Jumbo will step up and refresh the entire Luxor line to be ready for today … and tomorrow!

### 2/5 — Used to be good

*2020-08-22*

I upgraded to an iPad mini 5 and this game is now all fuzzy in appearance as if the resolution doesn’t match, anyway I contacted the dev team about it but it seems they did nothing to fix it, and that was months ago, disappointing.

### 2/5 — Plays fast on iPad.

*2020-01-31*

This is a wonderful game. I absolutely love playing it. However, it plays extremely fast on my iPad. On my iPhone it plays normally. However, on my iPad it’s almost like it is playing at 1.5-2 times speed. I’ve checked all settings and nothing in there regarding speed of play. Please fix!

### 2/5 — Lives disappear

*2019-02-09*

Would love to know why my lives went from 32 to 4 when I reached stage 9. After starting the adventure game again to save lives for the harder levels towards the end!! Not impressed! Also, sometimes jumps with resulting in wrong ball being shot or the aimer not moving which can be annoying!

### 2/5 — Game keeps resetting score to zero!  Fix it please!

*2019-02-06*

I love playing this game, but it keeps resetting the score to zero.  SO FRUSTRATING!  Without this problem, it would be a 5 star game.  With the problem, It’s a 2 at best!  Please fix the problem to make this my favorite game again!

### 2/5 — Update

*2018-12-20*

Please update to , iphone xs max

### 4/5 — Fun

*2018-06-17*

Multitouch definitely needs working on. Fun game, switching colors using multi-touch is frustrating.

### 2/5 — Il ne manque qu’une chose..

*2018-01-11*

Donc 2*

Le tir se fait le doigt sur le lanceur.. donc on ne voit pas la couleur de la boule dans le canon.. oui il y a une ligne colorée MAIS invisible qd le train de boule est trop proche du canon et peu visible d’ordre général.

Ensuite.. ce système de tir empêche d’être rapide et de bien pointer l’endroit où on veut que la boule aille

Non vraiment je ne mets que 2* pour le moment.. perso ça me gâche le plaisir

### 4/5 — Getting faster with each new iPad

*2017-08-04*

I really enjoy this game but have found it, and it's siblings, going faster each time I upgrade my iPad.
Where I could get right through all levels and stages before I now find it difficult to complete the 'easy' levels.
It is as if the speed of the game is tied to the processor speed.

### 4/5 — Love the game

*2017-03-21, version 1.1.1*

I just love to play Luxor. Multitouch sometimes does not release the ball. I have been waiting for a new one. I play it in my Mac and ipad. Hope MumboJumbo releases another one,

### 5/5 — Love Luxor

*2017-02-24, version 1.1.1*

I love the game. It is so much fun. I just wish the music was on there. The music is awesome. But, the game brings an ancient culture in to a fun video game. What's not to love?

### 5/5 — Luv, Luv, Luv

*2016-10-09, version 1.1.1*

I luv this game I can't put it down n as a matter of fact I'm losing sleep playing it!:0)

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2016-09-11*

I love these games because they are fast-paced and fun. After a few months, I can go back and play them again. The expert mode is tough but exciting. Great games! Music is great and no paying extra for lives or power-ups.

### 5/5 — Luxor 3

*2016-01-25*

Very good game but when will Luxor 3 be available on iPad ?

### 4/5 — Multitouch need work

*2015-12-25*

I am using an iPad 2 with the latest iOS update. I really like this game, but, the controls need work.  When I set the controls to use a tap to release a ball, it will often and repeatedly not release the ball making the timing very bad and frustrating.  So, it helped when I changed to releasing the ball when I let up instead of tapping.  However, that meant that I needed to switch to using the second find to cycle through the ball colors and now the 2nd touch will often and repeatedly not switch to the next ball color--also frustrating though a little less so than when the tap didn't release the ball.  Will give more stars when controls work consistently.

### 1/5 — Ужас!!!!

*2020-04-19*

Купил игру, запустил а она у меня не на весь экран. Зачем так делать???? iPhone xr

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2017-08-22*

I paid $7 for this game and it won't even open.  I have the recommended system but it crashes on startup every time.  I'd like my money back please.

### 1/5 — Incompatível

*2015-12-26*

este jogo não foi atualizado para resolução do iPhone 6 Plus, ficando tarjas pretas nas laterais

### 1/5 — lose the adds.....

*2014-09-02, version 1.1.1*

I purposely paid for this game in hopes of it being "add free". Turns out not to be the case..... you get a 1 star review because of the adds for a "paid game"

### 1/5 — Ads

*2014-07-12*

Take my money then put in ads. Way to treat your customers with contempt.

### 1/5 — Shame on you!

*2014-07-06, version 1.1.0*

I paid hard earned money for this app and now it is full of ads- will never buy another app from MumboJumbo!

### 1/5 — Good game!

*2014-04-22*

This is a brilliant game, and the touch screen controls works perfectly.

Now having said that there are lots of problems within the game witch stops me form giving it 5 stars. First of all if I'm paying for a game, I don't want ads popping up every time I want to play the game. Secondly it's not iPhone 5 ready as it's stated, you get the big black borders on the side..

### 1/5 — Adds

*2013-05-22*

I did not pay 5$ to get stupid adds for other games popping on my screen

### 1/5 — Boring

*2013-05-17, version 1.1.1*

Mind numbing crap.

### 1/5 — Luxor hd

*2013-05-04*

Le jeu se met automatique en pause, impossible de continuer à jouer. Est qu'une mise a jour est prévue pour corriger ce bug ?
Juste une étoile, pour le seul niveau que j'ai pu faire.

### 5/5 — Best game for iPhone ever

*2021-10-04*

Thanks to Touch2Play touch screen games, this game introduced me to the wonderful world of gaming. I have been a fan of this game since 2012 and I still play it!!

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing!!!

*2021-05-18*

Absolutely amazing, and if you need an answer to those “annoying throw-offs” then please for the love of Ra before you start put auto-aim on, it makes it way easier in the long run... and do NOT use multi-touch, unless you REALLY want to have a hard time with trying to switch colors!!!!!!!! Trust me on this!!! Devs though, really... I lost due to a bug in YOUR system in the YOUR game that pushed my Luxor orbs into the pyramid in level 9-5?!? I’m seriously reconsidering NOT redownloading this game after a stupid bug in YOUR game that made me lose after so long!

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2020-07-12*

My problem with this game is I love it so much I’m addicted. This is a great app!  I love it!

### 5/5 — iPad mini 第5世代で開くと、画質がボロボロになる。

iPad mini 4 までは素晴らしかったのに、5では画質が悪く、古いVHSの低画質モードを見ているよう。
