Who is Roald Dahl? 
Sitting in a hut at the bottom of his garden and surrounded by odd bits and pieces such as a suitcase (used as a footrest), his own hipbone (which he’d had replaced) and a heavy ball of metal foil (made from years’ worth of chocolate wrappers), Roald Dahl wrote some of the world’s best-loved stories, includingCharlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Twits, The Witches, The BFG, Fantastic Mr Fox, James and the Giant Peach and lots more.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work 😭

*2025-02-25*

I was recently reading The Twits by Roald Dahl because he’s one of my FAVORITE authors. At one of the last pages of the book it said ‘have you tried our new scrumdiddlyumtious app? You haven’t? Download Twit Or Miss today on the App Store!’ I remembered that game and downloaded it (price: free) . It started out with a yellow screen and turned all black. I tapped it a couple times and it worked. While I was playing the game, I always got pop-ups saying that there’s another Roald Dahl game. HOUSE OF TWITS(price: 2.00). I downloaded it with the 2.00. It started out with a yellow screen and then had a loading screen. After the loading screen it tuned all black. I tried tapping it a couple times and nothing happened. Tomorrow’s my birthday and I’m sick with strep throat and the flu. I was really looking forward to this app. What a shame 😭

### 1/5 — Loading

*2024-12-25, version 1.0.5*

The game will not load for me. It is just a black screen

### 5/5 — Very fun indeed!

*2024-11-07, version 1.0.5*

You can get to poke Mr or Mrs twit and trick them by putting highlight glue on the toilet seat!

### 1/5 — It won’t load

*2024-10-05*

I want you to try and see what’s going on, please
