    • “The art, the music, and the gameplay just works.”
    • “Developer has consistently introduced new mechanics in each chapter.”

  • monetization
    32 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “No ads.”
    • “Worried that future in-app purchases will make it unplayable (I never make any), but for now I'm having some fun.”
    • “I'd rather have ads (annoying, but necessary) than continual charges, and that way you can still get paid for the great work you do!”
    • “But instead of ads, they opted for a paywall partway through.”
    • “Great game until you have to pay to play. I understand that the developers want to make money, but in-app purchases and payments from the Google Store must go a long way.”
