## Contre Jour Reviews in United States

### ***** "Great"
This game never got the recognition it deserved... if it did, they would have likely made many expansions like Cut the Rope.  This game is very much on par, and better in many ways.
-- Sean1001, 2017-11-04

### ***** "Great physics &amp; style"
The trick is to complete each puzzle with maximum points on the first shot. Totally doable but requires strategic analysis. A very satisfying experience with a chill vibe.
-- panicrev555, 2017-06-03

### ***** "Beautiful brain candy"
The music, simple black and white colors, and the simple yet critical thinking game all come together for a great and beautiful game. I&#039;m surprised it isn&#039;t more popular. It&#039;s definitely worth the 99 cents.
-- celinasirena, 2016-12-10

### ***** "A Perfect Mix"
This is such a relaxing and mentally stimulating game at the same time. The movements are so natural and the lovely soundtrack prevents the game from ever becoming too frustrating. This game is so simple yet so complex!
-- Optimisam, 2016-08-21

### ***** "Best game!"
Best IOS game I&#039;ve played
-- Jerboss, 2016-06-19

### ***** "Beautiful physics"
A beautiful, thoughtful game. Worth every penny.
-- Dr.Spazio, 2016-03-25

### ***** "Stunning and challenging"
This game has me hooked. It&#039;s beautiful and each level is uniquely challenging.
-- Sunnysue1980, 2016-03-17

### ***** "Ad free again"
Beautiful music, haunting visuals. No cash shop. Buy.
-- Steelangl3, 2015-08-13

### *---- "Crashes so much you can&#039;t play it on iPad"
I purchased the iPhone version on my phone and then wanted to play it on my iPad but it crashes all the time -Ugh!!!    Please fix this problem or I&#039;ll delete this fun game.
-- LRShipley, 2015-07-05

### ****- "Worth it"
Great music and graphic, totally worth the dollar for noobs like me.
-- Ashighmore, 2014-12-29
