I say goodbye to the days I stayed in my room and endured loneliness. Yes, just launch this app ... and everything is over. Oops, before that I just need to say "camera permission". Absolutely. There is no future in the dark black screen. That's why star 1 reviews are forbidden. Before that, please allow camera access from [Settings] to [ARBugs]. It's time. I tapped the "ARBugs" icon with a shivering hand that I wanted to grab. A cool Unity logo that fades in. Always I am indebted. And the camera projects a dark, messy room. Isn't it my room? Holding the device in this hand and slowly turning it, a yellow marker was displayed in a small gap in the center of the room. This is a plane. If you tap this plane ... can I tap? … Because you will tap. Next moment. I stood on the spot. Please stand and play this app. Don't bother me. "Well ... surrounded ..." I can not believe that. Is it a game app? A close inspection of her surroundings revealed that similar objects were paired. That's a common story. Just tap on the match. That was it. The category of this app is "Game-Puzzle". Good luck!
