Puzzle toll - mit kleinem „aber“
Die Puzzle sind gewohnt schön, wenn auch erstmals auf dem Handy mühsam spielbar: teilweise ist nicht erkennbar, ob man noch auf der selben Ebene ist. Das war bei den ersten drei Roterra auch auf dem Handy kein Problem. Die Minuspunkte für die Werbung beziehen sich übrigens nicht auf die Tatsache der Werbung, denn die ist nachvollziehbar und ein in-App-Kauf für 0,99 €, um die Werbung zu entfernen, ist auch fair. Meine Kritik bezog sich darauf, dass am Ende diese Werbeeinblendungen noch kein Button erscheint, mit dem man diese Werbung ausblenden kann, sondern nur ein Button, mit dem man im AppStore landet. Und erst wenn man dieses Fenster schließt, erscheint dann das „x“ zum verlassen der Werbung. DAS finde ich nicht OK.
Nachtrag: im 1. Puzzle einen deadlock entdeckt: Lässt man die Prinzessin aus den Tempelchen gleich weit laufen, ist sie schneller als sich die Steine zurückdrehen. Dadurch steht sie dann auf einem Feld ohne Weg-Verbindung und um das Feld wieder zu drehen, müsste sie zurück in den Tempel, aber sie kommt ja von dem Feld nicht mehr weg. Es hilft nur restart dieses Puzzles. …nur um es nochmal klar zu sagen: es ist trotzdem ein tolles Spiel und zu empfehlen - wie alle anderen
Nachtrag 2:
Auf dem iPad super; aber auf dem Handy läuft die Figur teilweise nicht auf die nächste Seite des Würfels. Man kann einfach nicht weit genug tippen und obwohl alles erledigt und der Weg frei ist, bleibt die Prinzessin stehen statt nach oben auf die nächste wüfelseite zu laufen.

Hallo, Danke, dass du Roterra spielst. Wie in allen Spielen werden Anzeigen von Drittanbietern bereitgestellt, und wir haben leider keinen Einfluss darauf, wie diese entfernt werden. Roterra 6 erscheint wie die Originale später in diesem Jahr als kostenpflichtiges Spiel. Vorbestellungen sind in Kürze möglich.
Unplayable
I know games from this dev are verry fun but i cant play at all since lot of the map is stuck as it is and rotating are almost impossible to control i need a external controller
Honest Review‼️
This is an interesting game based on the series.
As much as I like this game, here are some Pros and Cons to consider:
PROS:
1. Outstanding music.
2. iPhone runs cool without overheating (unlike Roterra 3).
3. Very nice walkthroughs (if you need help learning).
4. Attractive price.
CONS:
1. There is no "Game Reset" option to erase your progress (you have to delete the App, then redownload it or else, the game won’t rotate the puzzles as you play).
2. Slow moving characters.
3. Slow rotating platforms.
4. The camera doesn’t keep the player centered, making it very difficult to tap ahead when the character reaches the edge of the screen.
5. Unable to pan the display with two fingers (see "Flip the Fairytale").
6. I don’t want to be asked to rate this game after I complete certain puzzles, but this game ignores my preferences (found in Settings).
7. The music stops and doesn’t loop.
As much as I like this game, it gets tiresome deleting this game just to reset my progress after finishing every puzzle.
What’s the point of replacing the difficulty icons with checkmarks if I can’t track my progress after I finish every puzzle?
I’m sorry, but unless this list of issues are fixed, I cannot recommend this.
I will play it. 😉
Please fix the issues, "Dig-It Games"! 😢

Thank you so much for your review and playing our game. Stay tuned for another Roterra coming out later this year. In the meantime, try one of our other puzzle games. Have a wonderful day.
Bugs I mentioned are fixed
I am changing my rating to 4 stars since you have fixed the bugs which are described below. However, one puzzle is unsolvable. Both my spouse and I have tried and we have both watched the walkthrough. The puzzle is not quite the same as the walkthrough. Since you did not number the puzzles, I can’t tell describe which one.
The other reason for 4 stars rather than 5 is that it is not possible to pay to remove ads.
Some puzzles don’t load. Music can’t be turned off. Ads comes up before loading some of the puzzles then a black screen of death and the puzzle doesn’t load. I feel that the game is unplayable until these serious puzzle loading issues are fixed.
You have fixed the puzzle which was unsolvable and now it’s now possible to remove ads so I have changed my rating to 5 stars. I also paid to remove ads even though I have finished the game. I think it is important to support development of games I enjoy.

Zu viel Werbung!
Leider kann man den Spielstand nicht speichern. Muss immer wieder von vorn anfangen . Ich verstehe auch nicht was mit den Kennzeichen wie z. B. 1 oder zwei Flammen am Anfang bei den verschiedenen Spielen auf sich hat. Man kann auch nicht erkennen, welches Puzzle man schon gespielt hat…!?!Ich habe alle Roterra durch gespielt, aber diese unübersichtliche Präsentation ist einfach schlecht. Dazu kommt, dass man sich die dämliche Werbung bei jedem neuen Beginn ansehen muss 😡. Also Fazit: Das ist einfach schlecht präsentiert!

Updated: Sie können jetzt Anzeigen entfernen --- Es tut uns leid, dass Sie frustriert sind. Die Flammen weisen auf Schwierigkeiten hin. Jedes abgeschlossene Rätsel wird unten mit einem Häkchen versehen. Im nächsten Update wird es eine Option ohne Werbung geben.
Happy player
This is a rewrite. Thanks for all your responses to my previous review. I have now completed all the Roterra games and can’t wait for a new release. They were all fun to play and some quite challenging.
I saw something on another review about a 2025 release?

Response from developer
Thank you for your updated review. Yes there will be a premium version of Roterra released in 2025.
Ads!
Love the Roterra games and having finished the series of four I thought I’d give the ‘Just Puzzles’ a go. I’m enjoying the games but the ads are a nuisance. They’re now cropping up after every level and take up to three clicks to clear. I’d rather just pay a flat fee for the pack than have annoying ads. If you do bring out another pack I hope you will consider this idea. Then it’ll be a five star award from me.
Edit: Just seen the pay to remove ads below but can’t see a way to do it.

Fun puzzles
Really fun puzzles, with a simple interface. Had one level with a camera bug that didn’t allow finishing it, but before I could send a bug report an update fixed it!
Response from developer
Thank you for playing. Wishing you a wonderful new year.
ADS ADS ADS
This is just the kind of thing I was looking for, but why no option to pay to remove ads???
Response from developer
The option to remove ads is now available. Please check it out and update your review.
Buggy 1.0 and 1.01
I love this game and I love free levels, so thank you to all involved. However, on my iPad Pro, *seven* levels would not load and one level is not possible to complete with the blue "switch" too far off screen and not reachable. This is *not* a well tested 1.0 release, and more like a beta release.
UPDATE: 1.01 fixed the puzzle loading issues, but added ads that can’t be removed or paid to bypass. Also, one puzzle still unsolvable.

Please note that all of these issues have been resolved including adding an option to pay to have ads removed.
Love the Roterra games
Entertaining and a great set of puzzles to introduce this series of games. Have enjoyed all of them.
Another great Game in the Roterra series
Fun and entertaining with the same great graphics and challenges you expect from the game.
Response from developer
Thank you for your support of the series. Have a wonderful day.
Glitch
Really enjoying it but a lot of the games won’t load just blue switching squares forever.
Thanks for your response all sorted.
However there is one level that is impossible to complete. There are two tiles that are a different way up from the walkthrough and they are off the screen when you have the ability to spin them. I have tried zooming out but there is no accuracy on the rotate or spin.

Ready for Holiday time
Was so happy to see this become available to play during holiday craziness. Amazing experience so far and looks like the graphics changes a bit from before. Play is the same.
If there were issues I am not seeing them but maybe there were in an early version.
I must say the puzzle with two flames can be real head scratchers.
Thanks for giving us more Roterra puzzles.

More Puzzles - So Happy
Thank you for providing another Roterra game. As winter sets in I needed some good puzzles to play. So far I have enjoy all the puzzles I have played and the ability to choose the difficulty depending on my mood and the time I have available. Keep up the good work.
Response from developer
Thanks for taking the time to send you your review. We appreciate your loyalty to the Roterra series of puzzle games.
Just more of the same
If you liked the original Roterra, this is more of the same. Doesn’t seem as buggy as others are reporting.
Response from developer
Thank you for playing. Please update to version 1.0.1 or later.
