### 1/5 — I cannot figure out how to play this game.

*2025-02-15, version 1.3*

I’ve watched the tutorial several times and tried to play 10 times now but it’s absolutely maddening.

### 3/5 — Слишком просто

*2025-01-29*

Конечно никто не просит делать из игры симулятор, но вся сложность заключается больше во времени, которое дается, чтобы вскрыть сейф. Ведь наводясь на верную комбинацию часы начинает пиликать и сильно вибрировать, показывая восклицательные знаки. Хотелось бы без этого, просто одна короткая, но ощутимая вибрация в момент наводки на верную комбинацию, этого бы хватило, да и интереснее было бы…

### 4/5 — Good game

*2024-03-06*

Really fun but gets boring after a while

### 5/5 — Good game for Apple Watch

*2024-02-18, version 1.3*

I like this game, it’s easy and interesting 👍🏻

### 5/5 — Fun

*2023-11-07*

Fun

### 1/5 — Fix bags!

*2023-11-06*

Hello! I face this problem all the time that at the end of the level, guessing the last number and when the arrow from the safe hits the red zone. everything seems to be logical and correct, the level is completed, they give a reward, but due to the fact that the red zone continues to fill, there is no way to remove the arrow, which is why, after victory, the safe opens, they only give a reward and immediately a defeat is announced and the game currency is withdrawn. I kindly ask you to solve the problem with a fix update. It is difficult to accumulate a large balance. But overall the game is worth the money, very well made, except for the problem. I often play it in the evenings and really hope for an update. Thank you for your understanding and responsiveness, I hope I explained it clearly😁

### 2/5 — bug

*2023-10-03, version 1.3*

bug, when the last number is in a red zone, even if u win, it shows that u lost afer it showed that u won, fix bug

### 5/5 — Meilleur jeu Apple Watch!

*2023-06-16*

Bon passe-temps sur mon Apple Watch. Concept très amusant et bien réalisé. J’adore!

### 3/5 — Bug

*2023-04-10*

Great game to waist a few minutes but if the red alarm area is triggered on the last number you will lose no matter what

### 4/5 — Good game but a few suggestions

*2023-01-01*

Great game and really fun to play but I wish you could be able to see little pictures of the loot you have in your gallery and maybe add a few more different types of robberies. Also something to spend your money on. But over all it’s a great game.
