### 2/5 — Version 3.0.7 still doesn’t work

*2024-09-20*

I have updated the game and it still does not open on iOS12.

### 2/5 — Language change??

*2024-08-18*

The app wasn’t loading on my mobile, so I deleted and re-downloaded it. It’s now in Chinese! How do I make it go back to English as the base language?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t follow the rules of the game at all

*2023-10-02*

As the title says. This isn’t Hanoi this is just a sorting game. If they could just fix that and some of the bugs they’d actually have the best Hanoi game on the App Store.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2020-07-11, version 1.6.0*

Awesome game, thanks dude !

### 3/5 — Freeze

*2020-03-05*

Works great, freezes every other second. Really pisses me off

### 1/5 — Ads

*2020-01-03, version 1.6.0*

Every time I do one of the puzzles an ad opens up on safari and freezes the game forcing me to restart everything I’ve done. Terrible, not playing again

### 2/5 — Fun for like 5 minutes.

*2019-01-28*

I like the simple designs and colors. Other than that there’s nothing much to this app. There’s only one game you can play where the disks are in the middle??!? And every time you solve a game there’s always an ad. It was fun solving it the first time but there’s no way to get better than 4990 points.

### 4/5 — More challenging but works

*2018-08-09*

yayy despite weirdly starting off with a random order, I actually found it quite challenging and fun that way. Don’t like the ads but that only pops up when you are navigating the menu, not when you are playing.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2018-04-30*

Played level 1. Played it again. Then it quit. Relaunched it, but it quit again. And again. And again. Then I deleted it.

### 3/5 — Not by the rules

*2018-01-23*

Tower of Hanoi is supposed to go from largest to smallest. I don't know why it starts off with large pieces on top of small pices
