### 4/5 — Why not

*2016-03-29, version 2.1*

I think that people who give their opinion on an application should say on what kind of devise they used it. The experience is completely different on an iPhone and iPad. I play this game on my IPad and love it. But what is really annoying is the fact that you must begin at the first step every time you make a mistake. When you regularly  make high scores, it is so dull to repeat all the easy steps again and again.

### 4/5 — Great non-violent memory & music game

*2013-01-17, version 2.1*

My title says it all!

### 4/5 — It's fun

*2011-09-10, version 2.1*

Its fun but gets pretty hard. And when I lose, it scares me to death cause im not expecting an annoying sound & something to pop up on my screen lol.

### 4/5 — it's ok

*2011-08-07, version 2.1*

shouldn't said mean words about it in my last review.

### 4/5 — Updated and improved!

*2010-08-30, version 0*

So the developers have clearly read the reviews and added colours and high scores for the new version :) well done, cool and addictive game.

### 4/5 — Play this game!

*2010-08-14, version 0*

Simple but engaging.  Enjoyable pastime.

### 3/5 — Who knew?

*2010-05-30, version 0*

I don't really like it. Free, which is why i gave it 3 stars..

### 5/5 — My Favorite Games List!

*2010-05-26, version 0*

I love games that are fun and engaging. My favorites are RubyRepeat, Uni Sudoku and Starfaces HD!
You got to try them all!

### 5/5 — Family fun!

*2010-05-18, version 0*

I really enjoy this game, especially playing with my 7 year old. It is challenging for us both! The colrs and sounds are pleasing and I like the two choices of solid color or multicolor. It's a beautiful game and a nice way to pass the time in the waiting room with the kids while still engaging their brains!

### 4/5 — Nice app.

*2010-04-11, version 0*

Add more themes with different sounds/images.
Still, a good app.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2010-01-29, version 0*

Reminds me of the simon (?) game I loved and played as a kid. :D  
 I wish it would repeat the pattern after a miss though.

### 5/5 — New and Improved!

*2010-01-12, version 0*

The new version is a great improvement. The web-based high score submission let's you keep tabs on the competition. Sound and screen contrast have been enhanced and a new 'color' mode comes in handy. This is a free app really worth holding on to.

### 5/5 — Repeatruby

*2009-08-27, version 0*

Hi

### 3/5 — Fun

*2009-01-07, version 0*

A take off of the old game Simon, but still fun - a great exercise for your memory. Graphic could maybe be a little bigger.

### 4/5 — Really annoyed

*2008-10-16, version 0*

I spent around ten minutes go through over a twenty number series and then I screwed up and it says, "keep practicing". If this game had a high score system then it would be excellent. Also if you change the colour or brightness of the glowing tile it would me easier to see. Great app though, has a lot of potential.

### 3/5 — Not too bad..

*2008-09-02, version 0*

I like itIt's pretty simple tho..But with no scoring system, and can get quite boring to the eye it lets itself down a bit..But it's only the first release so hopefully updates will make this more enjoyable to play..

### 2/5 — It's a start

*2008-08-27, version 0*

I echo the other reviews in calling for more colors, sound, and most importantly brighter flashes so that one can actually see the pattern. I lost 4 games in a row before I saw my first flash and was able to figure out that it was the game and not me. Its a start but I deleted it until it gets improved.

### 1/5 — BORING

*2012-03-31, version 2.1*

This is the MOST boring game I've ever gotten! I'm deleting it right now. DO NOT GET THIS GAME!

### 1/5 — A good idea, poorly implemented.

*2008-08-20, version 0*

This could have been the next Simon, but it's a pile of puke.  The flashing light isn't bright enough.  What they should have done is have various colors instead of just one, that would make it a little easier.  Some audio would be nice, and a high score page would be nice.  Oh well, maybe when and if they update this, they will implement some of these ideas.  For now, I'll be deleting it.

### 1/5 — Not so good

*2008-08-14, version 0*

Very low volume, weak color and lighting. It would be nice if there were different colors and brighterIt really gets boring

### 1/5 — Was actually quite disappointed....

*2008-08-05, version 0*

I was disappointed by this game, actually.  I know it's free, and kudos to the writer for making it free for us, but it wasn't really playable.  I was expecting (hoping for?) "Simon" but the facets of the ruby don't change colour, they just glow very vaguely making it a real trial just to see which ones are lit up during the sequence you're to remember, and so it's not really a memory game.  I'd love to see a "Simon" clone as version 2 of this app, possibly with a configurable number of facets and colours and tones.

### 1/5 — ZZZZZzzzzz

*2008-08-03, version 0*

Played it a few times- seemed buggy, appeared to get stuck a lot, very slow response time.And pretty boring.Deleted it.

### 1/5 — annoying flickers

*2008-07-30, version 0*

unplayable because of the annoying flickers and tiny buttons.  no fun to it at all.

### 1/5 — Bah...

*2008-07-26, version 0*

Closes as soon as I open it on my touch.

### 1/5 — Hate it.

*2008-07-25, version 0*

### 1/5 — Lame

*2008-07-21, version 0*

Doesn't even work for me.

### 5/5 — Best Simon-Based game I ever played!!

*2011-09-15, version 2.1*

Very addicting and fun lol. First time i got to like lvl3, a day later it's lvl6. one tip i would give is to see where the peices are around the octagon and look for a rhythmic pattern. Colors too if you arent a tryhard. 5/5, maybe try experimenting with a 4 button version :D?
