### 1/5 — Too hard!

*2020-05-06, version 2.2.1*

apparently made for children 6-8 - it’s unclear what you have to do in the game and no tutorial etc - it’s too difficult for my children to use and I have struggled to figure out what needs doing. What a waste of £1.99

### 1/5 — Totally useless app.

*2020-04-14, version 2.2*

Doesn’t work anywhere!!

### 4/5 — It is not updating

*2020-04-12, version 2.2*

It’s not updated and I am frustrated

### 1/5 — Only works on 2 year old or newer iPads

*2019-11-11, version 1.3.2*

What a waste of my time getting this app installed on school iPads where compatibility was assured only to find it’s not.  The teachers plans are ruined because you can’t get your information correct.  There are two factors to compatibility 1. iOS version and 2. Hardware version.  The App Store looks at 1. And not 2.

This was not clearly stated.  Schools who invested heavily in iPads three or four year ago can’t afford to buy them again.  AR works on older iPads why on earth implement an app design that only works with the latest equipment.  These are are not gamers indulging their passion but learners on restricted public budgets.  Your loss as much as ours.

### 5/5 — Wow! Such an awesome app!

*2019-10-12, version 1.3.2*

This is such an interactive game! It’s wonderful! The adults enjoyed it as much as the kids! It’s so immersive and different from anything I’ve seen before. Definitely worth the download. You won’t be disappointed.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2019-10-10, version 1.3.2*

Doesn’t work. Waste of time.

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2019-09-06, version 1.3.2*

Get stuck / frozen at loading screen.

### 1/5 — Didn’t understand how to play.

*2019-08-14*

Maybe a tutorial or an explanation on how to start or link the game to something could help.

### 1/5 — Not great

*2019-08-02, version 1.3.2*

Latest iPad Air won’t calibrate with camera.  Waste of time

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2019-07-24, version 1.3.2*

Absolute rubbish DO NOT PLAY
