### 4/5 — Pretty fun

*2013-04-18, version 1.1*

It doesn't give hours of enjoyment but for the occasional time killer it's not bad

### 1/5 — Very disappointing

*2013-04-18, version 1.1*

This app was just sad

### 1/5 — ASKS FOR my TWITTER ACCOUNT

*2013-04-17, version 1.1*

I click on the app and it automatically asks for my TWITTER account. I say no and it quits. Does that tell you something? It tells me something. AVOID.

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2013-04-17, version 1.1*

Here is a different app that is fun to play. Love the graphics. Gives your fingers a work out, love it!  Nice design.

### 1/5 — Won

*2012-11-09, version 1.0.3*

I thought this looked pretty good - little did I know that I paid for a program that won't work unless I grant it access to my Twitter accounts. When I click "Don't Allow" on startup it just quits.  You want access to my Twitter account then you should be paying me.

Keep your money in your pocket and your info to yourself folks.

### 3/5 — Cool game but insistence on Twitter account access is annoying

*2012-10-30, version 1.0.1*

This game is a cool concept and looks nice.  Well done and congrats to the developer!  :-)

But it has an annoying bug: it won't stop asking for access to my Twitter account.  An alert view pops up saying "Paper Climb would like access to Twitter Accounts.  Don't Allow / OK".  I click Don't Allow and then the game keeps asking me this same question every 15 seconds, including WHILE I am playing the game!  I keep telling it Don't Allow and it keeps asking.

I just want to play this cool and beautiful game. My Twitter account is none of Paper Climb's business.  This annoying bug makes the game unplayable as-is for me.

If the developer fixes this bug, I'll happily update my rating with more stars, because this is a cool and novel game.

I'm running iOS 5.1.1 on an iPad 3 if that helps?
