But the gameplay needs ALOT Of work, maybe put more effort into your game, I am not saying this is a BAD Game, but it's not the game it could have been. Also, the game keeps crashing, fix that please. Thanks! ### 3/5 — I acutely like it *2014-11-15, version 2.1* You know it makes me mad that people don't like this at all yet they go crazy when they play dragon finga go ahead and get that game see if it is better ### 2/5 — Terrible, horrible, no good, very bad *2014-10-18, version 2.1* WAAAAAAAH SHOULD B 0 stars! ### 1/5 — Sucked monkey balls *2014-03-14, version 2.1* The game sucked so bad I wished I would give 200 thumbs down ### 1/5 — Yeah, it's bad *2014-01-21, version 2.1* I don't often write reviews but I had to on this one... The graphics seemed appealing but the controls are pitiful. You get one kick in then the opponent just keeps running you down. And that's on easy mode. Nice try guys but not happening. ### 1/5 — Minediaria *2014-01-02, version 2.1* They fart to much make it stop please ### 1/5 — Surprisingly terrible *2013-07-26, version 2.1* Wow I was suprised how bad this app was do not download ### 1/5 — Mr *2013-07-18, version 2.1* This game is really really bad! ### 1/5 — Boo *2013-06-30, version 2.1* It takes so long to load!!! ### 1/5 — Sos *2013-05-14, version 2.1* Are they actually hitting each other?😦 ### 1/5 — 😡 *2013-04-01, version 2.1* Horrible!
