### 4/5 — What happened to my stars

*2020-07-13, version 2.1*

I have now had to pay twice for stars that go away when I open this game up again. Please fix this. Will not keep buying stars that go away. Still having problem with stars. And takes me back to level one with 10 stars when i stop the game. 

Please please fix this!

### 5/5 — SOL MINUTE

*2019-04-09, version 2.1*

Have played this game for years !  😊

### 2/5 — Love it, but . . .

*2018-09-30, version 2.1*

When will there be an update?  I’m tired of being sent back to level 13 whenever I stop playing!

### 5/5 — Sol Minute

*2018-08-04, version 2.1*

### 5/5 — Sol minute

*2017-05-10, version 2.1*

Best game ever.

### 5/5 — Challenging!

*2017-02-01, version 2.1*

The upgraded app is not working with the latest version on my iPhone. It keeps going back to lower levels after I get to higher levels. Please adjust the new version. Can't figure out how to contact you except this way!

### 5/5 — My choice of game

*2016-10-26, version 2.04*

Play ur t least twice a day.

### 5/5 — Great Tri-Peaks Game

*2016-01-14, version 2.04*

Challenging, fast, fun

### 4/5 — Freeze!

*2015-09-28, version 2.03*

I love this game but over the last couple of weeks it freezes every time after a couple of games. Have deleted and downloaded again with no change - may have to delete permanently, which is a shame

### 3/5 — Too fast

*2015-01-05, version 2.03*

1 minute doesn't give enough time to finish a level. There should be an option to lengthen the time. I've played it a week and can't get past level 2. But the graphics and sounds are nice. Which is why i give it 3 stars.
