### 3/5 — Fresh perspective

*2021-05-29, version 1.4*

Tho the game did meet my qualifications, I'm still non-plused that you left us hanging since 2016. Will there be any future development of the series? Either way, I'm only leaving you with three stars. It is quite rude to leave us hanging without a word on new development.

### 4/5 — not Fullscreen Size

### 5/5 — Excelente

*2019-11-27, version 1.4*

Recuerdo haber jugado este juego hace muchos años y hace dos días lo volvieron a actualizar para las nuevas pantallas de los iPhone, eso demuestra la calidad de desarrolladores que son, actualizando un juego que ya tiene años para que podamos seguir disfrutando de este juego como se debe, los controles son extraños pero te acostumbras rápidamente, la historia es muy interesante y en general el gameplay es divertido, lo único que me gustaría es que sacaran el episodio 2 o alguna continuación de la historia.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2019-11-26, version 1.4*

Still one of the greats and one of my favourites! It’s one that goes from new machine to new machine and is always relevant! Great story great graphics and an amazing story! Cool free roaming city and arena battles to! All in all fantastic and now updated again to keep it relevant today!❤️😎👍

### 5/5 — A welcome return!

*2019-11-26, version 1.4*

I played this for hours back when it originally came out. It’s got an interesting world, a terrific art-style, and great production values that generally hold up even now. Having it free is an incredible gift that everyone should take advantage of! Thanks to the devs for breathing a little new life into this.

### 4/5 — Please Update Game

*2019-02-18, version 1.3*

This game is old but I still play it from time to time. It would be nice if the developers could update it and come out with an episode two.
