Constant Freezes

Game seems like it would be fun if you could play it for more than a minute at a time without needing to force close and reopen. Eventually makes the entire device hang up. Probably a memory leak or some other issue that needs to be patched by the developer. Disappointing.

Regularly freezes

Every 5 minutes or so, the game freezes up forcing me to close and restart. iPhone 17 pro.

DO NOT BUY! FREEZING NONSTOP!

I’ve been playing this game for maybe 20 minutes and it has froze 9 times. Now I can’t even get past the main screen without it freezing my entire phone.
