### 4/5 — Great game, heaps of fun

*2026-03-27*

Only issue is that the invert direction button is glitched so no matter if it’s ticked or not the screen still flips which can be annoying as I like to use my watch at a level angle

### 4/5 — Fun but…

*2026-03-04*

I tried to buy the full game on my watch but nothing would happen so I bought it on my phone but now I can’t get the full game on my watch and if i click “restore” it just shows a hour glass and doesn’t do anything else and I’ve tried wait for over an hour but nothing works. Pls help because I really like the game and in my opinion it’s by far the best game on Apple Watch so please help.

Le faite que je peux jouer avec en cour avec mon Apple Watch j’adore et le jeu est super bien merci au/x développeur/s

### 5/5 — Very good

*2025-12-15*

The moment your fingertips touch the screen or the handle, you sign a silent contract - not with swords and shadows, not with thousands of troops and horses, but with an invisible palace. There are no marble columns and golden domes in this palace. Its bricks are the chains of logic, the cloister is a metaphorical maze, and the dome is the light that illuminates the mind when "suddenly realized". The excellent puzzle game is the greatest architect of this invisible palace. It invited us to complete a pure poetic pilgrimage towards wisdom itself.

### 5/5 — yes

*2025-12-10*

this game is SO GOOD it takes a while to load but when ur playing on a potato of an apple watch, it makes sense. the controls are way easier than my hyperactive brain thougjt it would be and the game is really cool. just watch out - it absolutely DRAINS ur watches battery. and i wish the data from my watch would save to my phone as well, and vice versa, but overall its a great game!!!!
