Very poor :( ### 1/5 — Horrible worth 0 stars *2012-01-18, version 1.6* Dumb don't wast money on it ### 1/5 — Broken *2012-01-14, version 1.6* It's funny but the balance is off and the play again button doesn't work ### 4/5 — Great Game *2011-12-10, version 1.5* This is a fun and challenging game. I can't give it 5 stars because if you pause it it screws up your game. ### 2/5 — Yeah *2011-11-07, version 1.5* It's alright yeah. It's hard and not completely accurate to your tilt movements and sometimes you have to tilt it really badly, and it should also be retina display because it can be really blurry looking. If it was retina display for the crisp picture and more accurately updated for the tilting, I'd rate it 5 star. ### 1/5 — Used to love this app... *2011-06-17, version 1.5* BUT NOW THE MAN FREEZES BEFORE HE EVEN STARTS WALKING!!  ### 2/5 — Updates *2011-06-14, version 1.5* I have had this app for a long time. There has been no updates for a year or more.Doesn't seem like there's going to be any time soon. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — TightWire *2017-03-05, version 2.4* The game glitches.
