Great
By far the best mobile version
Works well but is just greedy
Response from developer
Obviously free is nice, but then ads are required, or worst schemes to find revenue to support ongoing updates. These days, that requires intrusive videos, level blocks and similar. As a company, we’ve decided not to do any of that and instead focus on gameplay that benefits customers and not advertisers. Unfortunately that means we need payment in some other way. We’ve tried to price it fairly, and also provide both subscription and outright purchase plays options as some people prefer one over the other (though traditionally subscriptions will earn more for the developer). Thanks for giving the game a try. I’m glad you enjoyed it. If you prefer ad-based schemes, fortunately we have a couple of great competitors who cater to that. Happy puzzling!

Puzzle Baron - finally mobile optimized
I do wish that the bell curve for completion time could be ported to the app instead of the “expert +1” feature (but it’s better than nothing). A “clear” button to start over would also be nice.
Thanks for making this!
Response from developer
Good news! Clear is already there. Tap the puzzles stars/size at the top left of the board and a Clear button will appear at the top right of the board (i.e. like selecting a new difficulty but instead starting over). We didn't want to leave Clear there all the time to avoid accidental taps. Thanks so much for the kind words, and we'll definitely think about the bell curve idea. Happy puzzling!

Best star battle app available
Response from developer
Thank you! Good news, there is already a timer + rating! If you solve the puzzle faster than most people, without using hints, you'll get an "Expert" badge. There's also a "Zen" mode where nothing shows at all for those that prefer not to be rated (though it still keeps track in case you want to peek occasionally). If you ever have suggestions or questions, just email support@eggheadgames.com and we'll get back to within a day or so. Heppy Puzzling! Cheers, Michael @ Egghead Games
My new favorite game
Love
One small glitch with auto-elimination of squares neighboring a star: when you test a spot and remove it, the dots from previous stars also remove
Response from developer
Thanks so much for the kind words! We're thrilled you're enjoying the logic and the ad-free experience. Edit: the auto-elimination glitch was fixed in version 1.0.2 which is now available. Thanks again! Was: Also, thank you for that specific bug report regarding the auto-elimination dots. That's a great catch— we've reproduced the issue and will have a fix out shortly. Feel free to email support@eggheadgames.com anytime if you have more feedback. Happy puzzling!
