### 5/5 — I absolutely love it.

*2021-12-31, version 6.8.0*

I have been in attempt to distract myself from boredom, to distract my self from this empty and pointless world. This game has single handedly cured my depression. I’m genuinely not even pulling your leg. I quite literally walked into my therapists office and she looked at me and said, “phone for play is the medicine for you!” I recently bought the full version and I am absolutely blown away from the amazing graphics, interesting and interactive games and overall layout. This game is absolutely amazing. If you are suffering from things I was once suffering from, please, play this game. You will NOT regret it. 
- Yours Truly, Damien.

Used to love this app but now it’s glitchy and we cannot get the sound to work. Also, if your child accidentally deletes it, you have to rebuy the app. Definitely better apps out there.
