Getting kicked from app to Home Screen

Keep trying to play the game and I get kicked to home screen from the game app. The app doesn’t crash entirely but boots me to main menu.
Running IPhone 16+
Version 26.3.1
Serial number 69L4Y2F2H2

Beautiful but terrible

The controls are terrible. Having to attempt a simple jump 17 times because it just won’t work makes the experience incredibly frustrating. It’s such a shame because I love everything else.

Can not purchase full game

I would rate this game a solid 4 out of 5 based on visuals, music, audio, lore and story. The parkour mechanics are fine once you get used to them. I just wish I could buy the game.

full pass button? Help

Full pass button not working, won’t let me buy, Help

Full game locked behind in app purchase.

So 1 star.

Bugs

Beautiful game. However, version 1.3 has a bug that will not allow you to complete - you will get stuck, and cannot progress the game.
Unfortunately, the timeline of development means that the bug will most likely not be fixed.
Do not recommend

Mixed feelings…

I generally enjoyed this game, but it seemed to fall short of its potential. The visuals are beautiful, but some areas are too dark, and ledges can be tricky to discern. The difficulty curve is excellent, but progress is frustrating because not every attempt to grab onto a ledge is successful. The narrative is loaded with potential but not adequately explained, and the ending seemed like a letdown. One thing I will say though - the music is perfect.

What kept me coming back is that there’s plenty here for the completionist: hidden easter eggs and a bonus level. But even here there’s a problem, because the item tracker upgrade doesn’t seem to work, and finding all the hidden items is an infuriating chore without it. Finding the easter eggs is even harder, and I honestly wonder whether anyone has yet managed to find them all.

The Library of Babel is worth the investment if you aren’t fussy about the storyline, you have plenty of patience, and you want a challenging platformer that will test your reflexes. But I did get the nagging sense that this game could have been so much better than it is.

Crash

Looks good but crashes on title

The controls are driving me nuts

Visually very strong, interesting story and lots to discover. But the controls are so annoying and unresponsive particularly when jumping.
It’s making it unenjoyable having to do the same part over and over.

为什么在维修室漏电的那里关不上对话框

Incomplete

Going through the initial level I cannot find all the items, and there’s no way to get more info. Certainly not paying for this if there’s no way to move forward.

Full game locked behind purchase

What the store doesn't tell you is that in order to play the full game you need to make a purchase.

Instant 1-star review for the bait-and-switch.

Enjoyable play among frustrations

The concept is cool and the controls are simple. However, there are no settings to control the player character’s movement speed which leads to far too many fails and restarts. The sound will only play in ear buds on Bluetooth with no means to make it otherwise. Sound does not play while mirroring either.

🤞🏼Needs to be updated iPhone 11 Pro Max.

Just crashes before even being able to play the game. I will give this game 5 stars if you fix this game for iPhone 11 pro Max.
If you fix this game,
it would be much appreciated.🤞🏼

Awful

Cant grab ledges and it is constant boring text. Tap through all text just so you can run a couple of feet and miss a ledge over and over. That’s it. Refund

Bug

Game bugs out in home screen and does nothing have tried multiple times

Needs to be updated iPhone 11 Pro Max.

It looks great. Fun old school platformer. But it crashes constantly.
