### 5/5 — Surprisingly Fun

*2022-07-05, version 1.36*

I am generally not a fan of sliding puzzle games, but am a fan of games by Maciej Targoni.  Hook and Klocki are two of my favorite games, so Up Left Out was worth a try, at least.

And it turned out to be a surprisingly fun game.  The game employs a fresh take on the sliding puzzle mechanic and, of course, has that pleasing interface Targoni is so good in creating, making Up Left Out quite engaging.

### 4/5 — Super spiel. Entspannend.

*2022-05-25*

Es fehlt mir nur in welchem Level ich mich gerade befinde. 
Dann könnte ich auch sagen wo sich ein Bug befindet. Dort verschieben sich die Blöcke ineinander und es passiert nichts mehr. 
Schade, komme nicht mehr weiter.

### 5/5 — I love this game so much

*2022-04-13, version 1.36*

I have played all levels in this game at least 2x. Such a great game- please make another <3

### 5/5 — OH BENCHO

*2022-03-11*

WHAT A GREAT GAME I FOUND AFTER QUITE SOME TIME

### 5/5 — 楽しかったです

*2022-02-20*

楽しすぎて一日で終えてしまいました
他にも買ってみようと思います
ありがとうございました

### 5/5 — Pfiffiges Schiebepuzzle

*2021-08-12*

Nicht besonders viele Levels, aber die pfiffige Idee und die minimalistische, stylische Gestaltung machen das wett.

### 5/5 — Perfection

*2021-08-05, version 1.03*

Everything I look for in a game. Challenging, satisfying, peaceful. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Loved It, but it was too short

*2021-07-14, version 1.03*

I really liked this game but it was over pretty quick.

### 5/5 — Good Game!

*2021-03-16, version 1.03*

Another entertaining puzzle game  from Targoni. Please keep them coming!

### 5/5 — It was...

*2021-02-20, version 1.03*

Very nice game. Sounds are great. Highly recommended.
Thank you,

### 5/5 — It's a wonderful game.

*2021-01-26, version 1.03*

Simple, smooth, stable, and most surprisingly, cathartic. I finished the game in one day because I was obsessed with how great the app felt and how it's melancholic-but-hopeful soundtrack reminded me of how I felt in a period of life long, long time ago. Melancholic but hopeful. Does anyone know the original composer of the soundtrack? If so, hit a brother up.

### 5/5 — Très familial  EXCELLENT

*2021-01-10, version 1.03*

J’aimerais bien avoir des nouveaux niveaux comme difficile ou expert!
Aussi dans Hook l’espace libre était très mince et difficile à voir !
En gros j’ai adoré les 5 jeux 😍😜
MERCI 🙏🏻 et j’en veux des plus difficile 😜

### 5/5 — 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

*2020-12-25*

So cute, clever and minimal. 
Music is amazing. Sounds also.
This game definitely deserves more levels, even as in-app purchase.

### 5/5 — Wonderful satisfying puzzle game

*2020-07-17, version 1.03*

I loved this game. The sound effects when you beat a puzzle bring me such joy! <3 It doesn’t track your moves or rate your performance - just a very zen game. Absolutely worth the money, I only wish there was more to play!

### 5/5 — Isolation Excellence

*2020-06-08, version 1.03*

I’ve completed all of RainbowTrain’s games during this isolation and I honestly think it’s been great for my mental health. It helps me unwind and relax, without the pressure of high scores or even the pressure of completing levels (because the developer doesn’t tell you the level). It’s unbelievably minimal with fun puzzles and I love it. Thank you!
Please make more, I’ll pay much more than the current App Store price for more content!

### 5/5 — A treat for the fingers

*2020-05-20, version 1.03*

Yet again, a wonderful wee puzzle game from this developer. There’s a depth of gameplay here that at first it’s easy not to appreciate. You can easily find yourself thinking this is easy and then you’ve been swiping blocks back and forth for ten minutes. 

But I never tire of this. It’s tactile great fun and a nice if not too complex brain exercise. Highly recommended

### 5/5 — Excellentissime

*2020-03-25*

Excellent casse-tête. Si bien, qu’une fois terminé on en veut encore. Le design est impeccable (design graphique, motion design, design interactif). Le principe est limpide, la progression lumineuse. L’expérience m’évoque « The Witness », de Jonathan Blow, l’open world en moins. Un grand bravo, ainsi qu’un merci à Maciej Targoni pour cette pépite.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-03-03, version 1.03*

Many games spend a lot of time on flashy graphics but are boring. This is deceptively simple in terms of visual style, but is much more compelling to play. Love the challenging puzzles. Can’t wait to play more of the developer’s games.

### 5/5 — Want more

*2020-02-07, version 1.03*

Very absorbing and great to finish

### 5/5 — Great puzzles!

*2020-01-02, version 1.03*

Love this man’s puzzles

### 1/5 — Me

*2019-02-27, version 1.03*

Could do with some hints on these games they are slightly tricky as you get further on with them I’m still struggling with this game isn’t it possible to give an app that gives hints on the game

### 1/5 — 어이가 없네

*2018-09-12*

팝업으로 광고 띠워서 실수로 눌린거 같은데 당장 결제취소하세요. 이딴 식으로 영업하면 때돈 법니까? 
사용두 안하고 뭔지도 모르니까 당장 결제취소하세요.

### 1/5 — -5 stars

*2018-07-06, version 1.03*

This game is trash the levels end to fast and it’s not challenging enough.

### 1/5 — Boring.

*2018-06-30, version 1.03*

So boring.

### 2/5 — Great puzzle game but too short for the $$

*2018-08-07, version 1.03*

Nice puzzler, but way too short. Needs more levels.

### 2/5 — Good to start with but then...

*2018-07-27, version 1.03*

... they got lazy with the levels and they become boring and not difficult at all. Lazy programming?

### 2/5 — OK ish

*2018-07-08, version 1.03*

Interesting as far as it goes - but only a few levels and just starting to get a bit more challenging when it comes to an end and sends you back to the start.  No clock to beat, no countdown of number of moves taken.

### 3/5 — Disappointed :(

*2019-11-22, version 1.03*

I spent a long time looking for a game like this, and it was great while it lasted - just what I was after! But it’s a crying shame that such a great, playable concept was so very short-lived. I can’t complain about the price, and I don’t regret the purchase. But I do think there might be a trace of laziness on the maker’s part - I think they’ve let their own creation down, by not doing it justice. 100 levels minimum, Shirley!!

### 3/5 — ボリュームが・・・

*2019-07-29*

すごく面白いけどボリュームが少なくて
あっという間に終わりました。
もっと増やして欲しいです。

### 3/5 — Good

*2019-06-29, version 1.03*

It’s good but there are not many levels.

### 5/5 — Love These Games

*2025-11-02, version 1.66*

Another great game by this developer. Minimalist design, cool graphics, smooth mechanics, and no timers or anything else to apply pressure. Play at your own pace, with time to think, which is what makes the levels enjoyable to play and satisfying to complete! 

(I see there’s a bundle option with nine games. I’ve previously purchased six of them. If I choose the bundle, will I be paying for them again?)

### 5/5 — Si il n’y a pas une suite…

*2025-08-23*

…je pique une crise

### 5/5 — Zen and Tricky both

*2025-04-29, version 1.36*

Charming puzzler, consistently ramps up the mechanics and difficulty without being overloading or frustrating. Well worth it

### 5/5 — Relaxing

*2025-01-20, version 1.36*

Being disabled I like to relax to assist and, I’m glad I found this puzzle as it is nice and relaxing for me. J.

### 5/5 — 雪山登山よりハイキングが好き❤️

*2025-01-04*

AIが進化してボードゲームなどでトッププレイヤーを負かす時代、複雑で難解なパズルゲームの最善手を探すのは限られた高IQユーザーだけのマイノリティ・パラダイス。そんな優劣に油汗流してまでパズルで時間を溶かして挫折したくない私にとって、様々な解法を試行錯誤に発見できるパズルシリーズは凄く嬉しい。シンプルで手軽に、爽快で美しい幾何学パズルを楽しめる箱庭で、有象無象・真偽不明の過剰な伝達情報地獄から暫時的に解放されて癒されるってステキ。気楽にオブジェクトを動かせば発見と感動、単純なルールが面白く組み合わさっていて飽きずに繰り返しループできるパズル・アスレチックに感謝。

### 5/5 — Hits the sweet spot

*2023-01-17, version 1.36*

Fantastic game! Hits the sweet spot of challenging but not frustrating. Brilliant and new puzzle concept that leaves me in awe how the developer made it work!

### 5/5 — Very Satisfying game

*2023-01-09, version 1.36*

I enjoyed Klocki a previous game by this developer but Up left out is my new favourite. It really helps with anxiety and gives me something to focus on and I find the sound effects satisfying and fun.

### 5/5 — Better than IQ test trainings

*2022-09-22, version 1.36*

My only issue that levels ends,
 hope for more levels 😄

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2022-08-30, version 1.36*

Brilliant, relaxing and entertaining. No ads, no clickbait, just mental challenges which are so well executed.

### 5/5 — Engaging & quits the challenge!!!!!

*2022-08-07, version 1.36*

It’s 100% my kind of game!!
