### 5/5 — Love this game

*2020-09-01*

So far this game is very fun and entertaining to play. One thing I would add is gore. It would be fun to slice them in half or cut their head off. If you are reading this have a wonderful day.

### 5/5 — It’s fun

*2020-07-28*

We need more lvls tho

### 4/5 — A flawed gem

*2020-07-20*

In my opinion, this game is actually kind of fun and interesting; a simple yet refreshing take on the stealth puzzle genre, perfect as a phone game. The different weapons are unique enough, nice to look at, and feel worth it to unlock, and the overall aesthetic of the game is rather charming. But the game does have it’s flaws. Some levels are a little on the overly simple side, especially later on when they’re tossed in between the later levels, which are supposed to be more complex, and can feel a bit repetitive at times, and a glaring majority of the unlockable character skins feel very same-y, with the same eyes and only very basic changes in model, practically none of which are appealing, and a fair few which are cool concepts that are only really viewable in the title screen due to the game’s lighting system, which make them nearly impossible to admire to the same extent in gameplay. I wouldn’t recommend it to people who become easily bored with a game, as it does require some patience to really get into. Would love an update, especially one that adds some new levels. 4/5.

### 4/5 — Slicing

*2020-06-25*

The game is pretty good, but while slicing the guards it should actually slice them in half or off, it would be a really neat addition and make the game more interesting

### 2/5 — Weird controls plus stupid physics

*2020-06-01*

The app is alright but the controls could be much more simple. It’s awkward to play. There’s also really dumb ways to die in this game. You could be behind a wall but if you’re in the light, the enemies shoot through the wall and it kills you.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2020-05-29*

This is a really good game, not much else to say, it’s just good
