Broken game & Broken shop

Ovodre97 on

United States

Just purchased $3 for this game & immediately regret it… not only are visual & game design are really small but the shop itself is literally broken meaning I can’t buy any upgrades & I’m stuck playing with basic equipment as a beginner. Only took 3 min & less to just delete the game since there was nothing else I can do to play.

We need more!!

A Cry for Support

Ok, the title for this review may be a bit over exaggerated but I seriously do like the game. I just need help with what the game and its display. The buttons work great but on my screen (IPhone 12), they display only in the top right corner. Correct my if I’m wrong but I believe the game may be thinking I’m on an Apple Watch or it’s just a genuine bug. If anyone, but especially Vlambeer sees this review, please help, the game looks amazing and I’d like to enjoy it myself

UI STILL NOT FIXED

CassiusKash on

I would love a refund considering the last update claims to have fixed UI problems but on the 15 it’s tiny not even enjoyable.

BROKEN

It does not work on iPhone I want my money back

Fun game, UI is broken

SquareMike95 on

United States

This seems like a fun game and I really want to give it a 5-star review but as a UI designer, I got depressed with its current mobile UI state.

Screen Scaling on New Phones is bad

Ahrel on

United States

While the game is still great on an older phone (my Xr still plays it perfectly) I was disappointed to discover, that on my iPhone 14 it looks like the video is corrupt. It’s still possible to play, but it would be very nice if I didn’t have to guess where items were in the shop, and if it played at regular speed limiting my depth. On the other hand it’s almost like using a cheat code and bugging the game, making it easier? But I miss the ridiculousness of the game as it’s intended and hope that Vambleer chooses to update this game. The Apple Arcade variant is good, but I have nostalgia for this one.
