### 5/5 — Good

*2014-07-06*

Good game

### 5/5 — super engaging and fun!

*2014-06-27*

reminds me of the game fez :)

### 5/5 — Yeah! Excellent app!!!!!

*2014-06-24, version 1.01*

This game is awesome, great graphics, game play makes u think first ,before u move so the cute little guy doesn't fall off the planet. I'm on the second world. Love this game, hope for more worlds!!!!! Excellent job creating this app!!!!!

### 5/5 — Cutest guy ever

*2014-06-20*

He is cute and square and I want one best game ever also

### 4/5 — Great Game, Frustrating Controls

*2014-06-19*

I'll have to say, I really like the concept of the game. It's a good puzzler, but the controls are a bit tricky. It's easy to move in a direction you don't want to and fall off the planet, which gets tiring after the first few times.

### 5/5 — Great game! Worth the $1.99

*2014-06-19*

This is the first review I have ever written and I've downloaded tons of games from the App Store. I don't understand the bad reviews of the game. I didn't read them until I had already started downloading the game so I was worried at first but I am now on the 2nd world in the game and I think it's amazing. It's challenging at some points yes. But it just makes you think a little and what game is fun when it's not a little challenging? I have an iPhone but not the newest generation and I have experienced no freezing or glitching at all. This game is worth the money don't listen to the other reviews before you try it.

### 5/5 — Gorgeous and compulsive play

*2014-06-16, version 1.01*

Pretty to look at, addictive to play! Easy to get sucked in to the world! Definitely worth buying!

### 5/5 — A 5-star game, but let down by the controls...

*2014-06-15, version 1.01*

This *would* be a 5-star game, except for the fact that the controls can be a bit temperamental. Not the 4-way directional buttons, they work OK, but I prefer to use the alternative "tap-anywhere" control method to move to that square. Sometimes my character moves to a square which is *not* the one I tapped on, and in some cases, this means falling off the planet. 
If the dev can sort out the controls, or instead allow us to directionally-swipe the character, then this game would definitely be 5-stars otherwise: great concept, expertly presented!

### 5/5 — Qbert

*2014-06-13*

Very nice puzzle game. Beautiful. If you like Rubik's cube you would like this.

### 1/5 — No

*2020-09-08, version 1.4.4*

No I will not pay each month to play this game

### 1/5 — Buggy!

*2014-06-29, version 1.02*

Buggy! Buggy! Buggy! Good game concept with vey poor delivery even after game update still buggy!

### 1/5 — Don't get it

*2014-06-19, version 1.01*

If you are thinking about getting this game, don't. It is so boring and very disappointing. I thought it would be better.

### 1/5 — Fun for the first few levels

*2014-06-13*

Interesting gameplay. Cute character. Had my attention until the 5th level when jumping and turning the world at the same time becomes necessary. Controls are impossible to use at this point. Deleted the game. I just wish it didn't get this hard this quick.

### 1/5 — Stupid control scheme

*2014-06-12, version 1.01*

Splitting the left right and up down controls between the left and right hand is just plain stupid and makes the game unplayable.  What's wrong with a standard d-pad?

### 2/5 — Neat game but annoying controls.

*2014-07-02*

I can't recommend this game. Especially at 2$. 

It looks great and has an unique concept. However, the controls are really awkward. Twisting and turning the block in the desired direction is incredibly difficult, and moving the character to the blocks is even more frustrating. The controls are so imprecise that I'm not interested in playing it, and regret buying it. 

I hope the devs overhaul the controls soon. I'll be the first to give a good review if they can fix it to a more intuitive and precise control system.

### 3/5 — Would be fun,  but controls are maddening.

*2014-06-17*

See title

### 3/5 — Fun game but sound issues

*2014-06-13*

I love the game concept and it is fun but the music will not stay off. Every time a new level is started the music comes back on. Also there is no option to turn off effect sounds. Five stars after these fixes :)

### 3/5 — Great idea but....

*2014-06-12, version 1.01*

Lovely graphics and game design but let down by a combination of swipes and buttons to control the character and planet. It's far to easy to ACCIDENTALLY make the wrong move and spoil the level if you are after the full three stars. Sort out a tighter more fluid control system and this could be a five star game but not in it's present state.

### 4/5 — Great game that loses a star for control bug

*2014-06-22*

Fun to play, love the rotation mechanics, loses a star for the bug in the touch detection of the controls on the left side. Going "southwest" works just fine, but there seems to be some lag when I want to quickly go "northeast" just after going "southwest", and I get an extra "southwest" instead. The lag doesn't seem to be there if I activate another control instead, e.g. move on the other diagonal or rotate.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2016-12-06, version 1.03*

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — Cool

*2016-06-29*

Love puzzles

### 5/5 — Fantastic graphics

*2016-06-24*

I lost interest in the game fairly quickly,, but I'm giving it five stars for the outstanding graphics. Beautiful stuff! I look forward to seeing what else you do.

### 5/5 — Outstanding!

*2014-12-01*

This may be my favorite puzzle app ever.  The 3D spatial manipulation is intriguing and the puzzles are all solvable but require thought. I found the controls challenging at first but quickly adapted. More, please!

### 5/5 — Very fun!

*2014-11-28*

This is a great game. The controls are SUPER easy. Other reviewers having difficulty may want to consider repeating kindergarten. 😜

### 5/5 — Highly recommended

*2014-11-23*

Great game with lots of polish. A shiny example of what an indie game can and should be.

### 5/5 — Update?

*2014-11-02, version 1.02*

Hi, awesome game! Hv completed all levels to 3 star, waiting on new levels - hurry please!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2014-09-20*

I am really enjoying the 3D aspects of this very cool and slick puzzle game.  I  am not sure what complaints other reviewers have with the controls; I find that the D-Pad controls work perfectly playing on my iPad 3.  You do have to be careful rotating the platforms as the 3-dimensional aspect of the game can be disorientating.

Besides just great puzzles, the game has plenty of levels, lovely graphics and good Game Center support.  This is really well done!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2014-07-23, version 1.02*

Great game with an unique concept, hours of fun,  and a cute little character that reminded me of Q*bert. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Twisty Planets

*2014-07-16, version 1.02*

Such a good game. I got stuck on a few levels and it really is mind-bending! Love the game so much I can't put it down.
