I’m not the kind of gamer that likes to cheat and I can’t do losing so this game intrigues me, pulps my cerebrum and drives me mad all at the same time. The concept is simple and easy to grasp. Getting the hang of putting the rune blocks in the right place is not hard to understand or execute. BUT (and it’s a big but) Any level after 7 or 8 or thereabouts is mindbendingly tricky. The order in which you collect blocks is important, the way you move them around the ‘board’ matters. Everything makes it tough and frustrating. And yet you don’t want to be beaten! It’s probably a marmite kind of game! And I love it and hate it at the same time. The stunning graphics and 3D beauty of it make it worthwhile just to look at, it’s easily worth the cost. Will be posting solution videos somewhere sometime if I can remember how I solved those demon levels!! ### 5/5 — !!! *2020-08-20, version 1.0.0* Interesting game ! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Immediately Crashes! *2023-05-12* Immediately Crashes! **Developer response:** Hi, Crystal1028! Unfortunately the game has been without updates for a very long time. But now a new version has been released, absolutely free. With many new levels and interesting mechanics. I would be glad if you tried it and changed your review. Best regards, Levan ### 1/5 — Crashes 100% *2023-05-09, version 1.0.2* Stay away. Needs update. ### 1/5 — App will not start *2023-03-29* IPad mini 2022 with iOS 16.4. The game crashes the second I try to run it. Please fix the bug and I will update my score. **Developer response:** Hi, kiki_2022! Unfortunately the game has been without updates for a very long time.

Best regards, Levan ### 1/5 — Doesn’t open *2023-01-16, version 1.0.2* Purchased this today, but each time I try to open the app it just takes me back to my iPad homepage. I’ve tried deleting and restoring with no success. A refund would be nice! ### 1/5 — Goed maar werkt niet met ios16 *2022-12-11, version 1.0.2* Werkt niet in ios16 . ### 2/5 — Too Difficult to Enjoy *2020-09-14* Once you get past the first few levels, the game is much too difficult to enjoy. The hints are largely useless as they are too few and only work at the beginning, showing only the first move or two. I’m not sure why the developer chose to gimp the hints, but it’s uncalled for. The app is paid for, therefore hints should be available at any point during a puzzle and there should be more than just two. Being unable to complete the puzzles just makes the game no fun. Uninstalled and will be asking for a refund. **Developer response:** Dear CeseuronDarkmagic, thanks for your feedback! We'll add easier levels and reimagine the hints in future updates. ### 4/5 — Naja geht so *2021-12-12, version 1.0.2* Saugt den Akku leer wie’n Öltanker und mit 30 Leveln auch nicht gerad der bringer. ### 4/5 — Nice but difficult..I can dig it *2020-09-05* This game would be better if instead of just a glow up hint of the puzzle there could be how a few moves that would actually look like and maybe disappear or be like the beginning but more thought out so you could see it more successfully overtime because it’s actual hard to envision how the level is supposed to be. Other than that it’s really challenging and I like that. Reminds me of this other game I used to watch people play or attempt to play in my free time and which it was the same concept but if you matched the puzzle the bricks would fall through the map and descend to the next level...but this one is better and way calmer if you don’t lose you’re cool about how hard it is...other than that great game! **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! ### 5/5 — Nice game *2025-03-09, version 2.0.3* Nice game. I played with pleasure. ### 5/5 — loved it *2025-03-09, version 2.0.3* Best-looking, most intelligent game to spend time on ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Круто! *2025-03-08, version 2.0.3* Добра гра, нажаль поки грав, мій замовлений бургер охолонув ### 5/5 — Cool game *2025-03-08* I really enjoyed this game! The relaxing music and subtle vibration feedback create a soothing atmosphere, making it a pleasure to play. While it may seem simple at first, the puzzles quickly become more challenging, pushing you to think creatively. The design is sleek and well-executed, adding to the overall experience. It’s the kind of game that keeps you coming back for more. Highly recommended! **Developer response:** Thanks for the positive feedback ### 5/5 — fine game *2025-03-08, version 2.0.3* liked to find the solutions ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-03-08, version 2.0.3* Great game, I really liked it, thank you! ### 5/5 — Cool *2025-03-08, version 2.0.3* Very interesting and educational game ### 5/5 — this game develops mental abilities, i like it 👍 *2025-02-26, version 2.0.2* this game develops mental abilities, i like it 👍 ### 5/5 — Nice *2025-02-24, version 2.0.2* 👍👍👍 I👌👌👌 ### 5/5 — Optisch ein Leckerbissen... *2020-10-26, version 1.0.2* ...und auch angenehm fordernd für die Gehirnzellen.
