THANK YOU FOR ALL THE DOWNLOADS,
UPDATED THE FULL GAME WITH 20 EXTRA LEVELS AND THE FREE VERSION WITH 3!

If only he had a gift to woo her affection…

### 3/5 — Great but froze twice

*2012-02-28*

I love love this game but it froze a first time so I deleted and redownloaded and it froze once again. If it weren't for the freezing I would give a 5 star review.
