Bugs seem to be fixed

★★★★

Meep Dixon

Good game, frequent crashes. The audio continues to play but the game completely freezes. Restarting the game fixes it for a moment, but it crashes again shortly thereafter. Occurs during menu transitions, as you start a new game or get defeated. Too bad, I was a huge fan. Edit: Seems the bugfixes sorted it! Increased from 2 to 4 stars. Would rate 5 if progression wasn't so slow and limited.

★★★

Leonard Nguyen Schøyen

Only one finger input is allowed, so you can't draw many symbols at once anymore. Boring game compared to how it was years ago.

★★

Ventis

The game is very fun, I got addicted to it really quick, but it has one major issue ITS NOT ADS. the issue being: if a monster falls straight on the wizard and you don't pop it in time it obviously kills the wizard it doesn't play the animation hence the game won't end and any reward you earned during the session will be deleted.

★

The game has a fun mechanic, it's worth a 4 star rating as it is. But it wastes more of your time watching ads than playing the game. If they had tried to make a fun game it could easily be a 5 star rating. But they had to be greedy and force endless ads on all their users instead. (I bought the game to get rid of the ads. It's still ruined by ads even after I did)
