## Most critical reviews (9 lowest-rated)

### 2/5 — Neat. Currently broken though.

*2024-04-09*

Every other chapter (for first 5 that I’ve seen) auto-concludes.

Fun intro to assembly if ever fixed though.

**Developer response:** EDIT: This issue is fixed in the version 1.1 Update.

Hey,
I'm Lena, the developer of the app. Thank you for downloading my app.
I am not sure I am aware of the issue you are describing. Maybe you can help me fix it. Currently I am working on an update. I would be delighted if you could email me a description of what's happening to: lena@fancygoose.dev 
Thank you

### 3/5 — Poor UX

*2023-12-20*

I really wanted to like this, but issues as simple as not being able to cancel a partially written command make this very irritating to use.

**Developer response:** Hey, 
Thank you for the feedback. I’m sorry you didn’t have a great experience. I fixed this issue in the new update. Really hope you can like the app a little more now.

### 4/5 — Fixed: chapter skipping - nice

*2024-05-18*

They fixed the chapter skipping bug, nice. I've only just restarted, but it's so good that I came like this exists. Looking at assembly code is really important just to understand what is being produced by most programming languages. Occasionally comes up, but is often too arcane to be used because most people don't have exposure. I'm excited to work my way through this game. There may be some game design elements that could be improved (e.g.when they introduce MVN the task doesn't seem to benefit from its use) - still fun and accessible.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much. I’m happy you like it. Thanks for the feedback on the MVN chapter, I’ll see what I come up with for the next update. Hope you continue to have fun! 

EDIT: This issue is fixed in the version 1.1 Update.

### 4/5 — Neat. Currently broken though.

*2024-02-19*

Every other chapter (for first 5 that I’ve seen) auto-concludes.

Fun intro to assembly though.

### 5/5 — Cool, thx, but…

*2026-03-23*

Sehr schöne, lehrreiche App, vielen Dank dafür Lena 👍 Allerdings gibt es einen Bug: Auf meinem iPhone SE 2. Generation (2020) sind im Kapitel 2 unten nur die Buttons für ANF und ORR zu sehen, der Rest wird abgeschnitten. Da es keine Möglichkeit gibt, in den darunter liegenden Bereich zu scrollen oder ihn durch Zoomen sichtbar zu machen, ist es unmöglich, die Werte zum Lösen der Aufgabe auszuwählen. Bei Kapitel 1 hat es funktioniert, auf meinem iPad funktioniert es im Kapitel 2 ebenfalls problemlos. Wäre super, wenn Du das prüfen und fixen kannst 
EDIT 23.03.2026: Mit der neuen Version 3.4 wurde das Problem behoben. Vielen Dank für das schnelle Prüfen und Korrigieren des Problems, Lena 🍾👌🎉🔎

**Developer response:** Edit: Das Problem sollte in Version 3.4 behoben sein. Bitte melde dich sonst noch einmal, wenn es weiterhin besteht! Vielen Dank noch mal für das Melden, deine Beschreibung war sehr hilfreich! 

Oh, Danke für die Meldung des Fehlers! Das werde ich mir gleich anschauen und reparieren. Es freut mich, dass dir die App trotzdem gefallen hat!
- Lena

### 5/5 — Sehr schön

*2025-08-15*

Eine Schöne App um die Basics zur Assembler Programmierung zu erhalten.

**Developer response:** Danke! Ich freu' mich sehr, dass dir meine App gefallen hat. - Lena

### 5/5 — A fun way to learn assembly

*2024-07-17*

I was much more familiar with ARM assembly many years ago, but it’s been a long time since I’ve used it, so I’ve forgotten nearly all of it. This app proved to be a very effective and entertaining way to refresh my memory. It explains all the low-level concepts very clearly, and keeps me engaged a lot longer than a decompiler and a textbook do

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! Good to hear that you had fun whilst learning.

### 5/5 — Macht Spaß!

*2024-05-24*

Hilft ein bisschen die Grundlagen zu lernen. Mit GameCenter und der Einleitung kann man auch ganz gut anfangen. 
Obwohl ich noch mehr Tipps und Hilfe nicht schlecht fände :)

### 5/5 — Mit GameCenter noch besser

*2024-05-07*

Wirklich eine nett gemachte APP! Mit der Integration von GamecCenter macht es noch mehr Spaß die Aufgaben zu lösen.

Die zusätzlichen Informationen zum Rechnen mit Bits und die ganzen Erklärungen runden es schön ab.
