As a enjoyer of the version on pc I can say I didn’t expect the port but It feels like something that works for it, although you can tell how raw it is, being really obvious when you try to get the full game and it just removes the ability to get the full game. It really is just the same game on steam, and the port has some things that it could take from the dead cells port to mobile, like adjustable buttons and more customizable controls. All and all I feel like unlike dead cells this is a good game to port to mobile because of its less fast pace gameplay, but still making a requirement for being well timed. I will try to remind myself to give it a 5/5 stars if it gets a update to tune some of the obvious bugs and tune up the interfaces, but right now I think that it has potential.

Just a couple ideas to better the controls, though this is just on the spot

*aiming*

Add buttons to change the angle of the shot, and customizable sensitivity to adjust how fast the angle changes

Joystick

Lock and load, or more or less select a target and press something to fire the shot to assure the user that the ball goes where they want

*etc*

Maybe make a portrait style viewing mode so that all the balls and options are below, but the gameplay is on the top, and make it so shooting the ball only worked by touching a part of the screen so that the trash button wouldn’t be so easy to press accidentally

Just writing a review to counter all of the people (mostly kids) complaining that the game isn’t free. There are multiple games on the App Store where you have to unlock the full game by paying, or in some cases having a Netflix subscription, this isn’t anything new.

The sad part is, I think this is the best possible format for premium games. You get to try it for free, and if you don’t enjoy it, at least you didn’t have to shell out any money for it. There’s a lot of entitled people who didn’t read the in app purchase section, and thought the full game was free. This is a port of a full fledged PC game. Very rarely is that going to be completely free.

Apple should really make a category for games that have a one time purchase to unlock the full game, and make it so that people can’t review those types of games without purchasing them first. Otherwise they get review bombed like this one, even though their model is arguably the most fair way out there and should be praised for it, not ridiculed.

Game itself 5/5 its fun and simple enough to play anywhere when needed and worth the price for the full game but I have a few issues 1 of which might just be a me thing but I will include it :1: (Me thing) Some of the boards feel like their special little designs don't make for enjoyable boards most notably to me one of the Red Skull encounters in Area 3 with the 4 black holes at the top I feel like my orbs don't have enough power to reach the higher pegs once the lower half is almost gone so I just waste shots and the mini boss just gets lots free hits when I can't do much back :2: The item which limits your shots to four directions doesn't work and only shoots to the bottom right :3: I wish there was a way to see what the effects from orbs do before you purchase them

But other than that great game and hope they continue to work on it and possible implement new stuff in future
