### 4/5 — Interesting puzzles

*2018-06-17*

I like this game, it's calm and makes you really think. The soundtrack is nice, it's one of my favorite parts about the experience. 

However, it is a bit repetitive, it would be cool to have more gameplay mechanics.

I haven't encountered any glitches so far.

I would recommend getting this game.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2018-06-09*

The level selection screen and main menu are overlapping and when I try to press the sliver of the play button that is showing, the game crashes, and despite the level select showing, it won’t let me press the first level.

**Developer response:** thank you for downloading Schattenspiel. I have solved the error and already submitted an update to Apple. It takes a few days until they review and release it.

### 5/5 — promising, can't wait to try it

*2017-08-08*

Looks cool! Unfortunately crashes, I cannot open it. Looking forward to trying this out once it is working. Looks different from other light beam puzzles.

Heard back from the developer, and an update to fix the crash should go live soon.

**Developer response:** Thank you. I'm currently working on a fix. It takes a few days (until the update is finished, reviewed by apple and live on the app store)
