### 5/5 — Need more!

*2014-01-23, version 2.1*

This is a great jigsaw puzzle but it needs more puzzles to be added PLEASE. I have run out of options. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2012-06-21, version 2.1*

Great game. Good twist on puzzling! Wish there was a few more free ones, but very fun to play.

### 4/5 — Nicely Design

*2012-06-16, version 2.1*

Best puzzle game on iPhones app I've ever seen and tried.

No glitches or lags. The puzzles moves smoothly. I really love the auto near detection pieces.

About one of the achievements on Game Center, shouldn't it be two minutes on iPhones and one minute on iPad? iPhone screen is way smaller than iPad's - making it not able to see a bigger picture.

### 2/5 — Freezing

The app freezes every time power up used. Couldn't find any other way to report this to dev.
