Needs a update!

Kind of a bummer to pay to remove ads on a game and then not be able to play it. We loved this game! Please fix it!

crashes immediately on XS

opened the game, turned off sfx and music, crashed. won't let me even click "play" before crashing back to springboard.

Crash on launch

I read a great article about this game written by Erica Gorochow. This is why I downloaded the game.
I was disappointed to discover that the game cannot be run on iOS 12.

Fantastic app... back when it worked

I loved this game. However it is unfortunate but since iOS 12 it refuses to launch. Makes sense as the last update was 3 years ago... but oh well. Hopefully it gets updated even though I don’t foresee it. If so I will gladly change back to a 5 star review.

Crashes at launch :(

Same as previous comment.
