Rest in peace…you were a good game, unlike any iPad game whatsoever nowadays. The 2010’s were a nice time for the App Store, but the 2020’s completely obliterated every last bit of goodness on it. Shame…

Can you get this app working again, please.

It’s been a long time since this app was unavailable, Please, can you get it updated for more devices. I want to start playing it again, and continue whale watching for years to come.

Fallen From Grace-No Longer Compatible or Usable

Just update it so I can play it!!! Please!!! For the love of god, I loved this game back when it was still compatible. But now? I doubt you’ll see this. I know you’ve abandoned this game. I am only writing a review just to show how much I loved this game. ❤️

Very Nostalgic

Loved this game since I was a kid, now I'm revisiting it on an old phone for not-that-old times sake. It's been a while since doing something so tedious and enjoyable :)

Nostalgia

I miss this game more than I do my son, I love this game, it was so good, the amount of work Prope put into this game was extraordinary, there are not many whale games anymore, and seeing this one leave is just heartbreaking, just end me already, let me enter heaven and play Real Whales Find the Cetacean.
