### 3/5 — Good game

*2024-07-17*

Very nice! Small problem, when I try to pay the 99c to get rid of the adds it says “invalid product id” and won’t let me pay. Please fix problem for 5star ;p Sank you very much!

Oh ps: could you make the writing scroll slower please, I have dyslexia and have to click the button like 10 times to read it haha Thaks again!

### 1/5 — Explain

*2021-02-06*

This is a great game and I will change the rating to 5, if I get some answers. 
What are “lost messages?”
  After you get advanced in the game, the game will start freezing up, forcing you to restart and lose progress. Why?
AGAIN, A DECENT GAME WHERE THE DEVELOPERS NEVER BOTHER READING THE REVIEWS, ONCE THE ADS ARE PAYING THEM WELL.

Feb 3 2021 update
I can not keep the app open. I’m down to one possible upgrade and the freeze ups are almost every time I play the game. It appears, that the design of this game is to encourage you to delete the game once you get to a certain level. Bypass this game. You will see that it has been constructed to be impossible to complete. It’s not a matter of skill, but rather the functionality of the app. I would suggest that the 5 star rating (which you cant see) is bogus.

The downloaded version appears to be 1.0.0

**Developer response:** Sorry for the late reply.
While you digging,you may trigger some event,they are record in “lost messages ”.
can you give me which upgrade causes your app freezes,it helps me to find the problem.
Thanks
