## Specimen Reviews in United States

### ***-- "Needs a update!"
Kind of a bummer to pay to remove ads on a game and then not be able to play it. We loved this game! Please fix it!
-- Ionicbrick, 2020-06-15

### *---- "crashes immediately on XS"
opened the game, turned off sfx and music, crashed. won't let me even click "play" before crashing back to springboard.
-- joshtransient, 2019-06-08

### *---- "Crash on launch"
I read a great article about this game written by Erica Gorochow.  This is why I downloaded the game. 
I was disappointed to discover that the game cannot be run on iOS 12.
-- Gallonator, 2019-06-08

### *---- "Fantastic app... back when it worked"
I loved this game. However it is unfortunate but since iOS 12 it refuses to launch. Makes sense as the last update was 3 years ago... but oh well. Hopefully it gets updated even though I don’t foresee it. If so I will gladly change back to a 5 star review.
-- BlazerOmelet, 2019-05-19

### ***-- "Crashes at launch :("
Same as previous comment.
-- Wastedgrace03, 2019-03-02

### ***-- "I just want to play! :("
Game crashes upon launch.. Loading screen appears and color droplet starts to drop into the Play button, then app crashes. HELP!
-- ShibbyT3M, 2019-02-06

### ***** "Beautiful!"
An absolutely wonderfully executed game.  So much fun trying to work my way through the spectrums.  Gorgeous animation and sound design. Thank you!!
-- Skinny P, 2016-05-08

### ***** "Beautiful"
A simple, elegant and fresh game. Super addicted
-- Gorociao, 2016-05-08

### ***-- "Pretty colors, baffling effects"
I like the colored amoeba blobs, and I like picking the one that matches the background. Would really really appreciate an untimed mode, you could even just call it a practice mode. Time limits are incompatible with relaxation. That's work, not play. I'd also like info, directions, help, something, explaining what the black and white patterned blobs mean. Two seconds of info flashed at the beginning of a level, if that's what it is, doesn't help. Maybe everyone else but me is too smart to need this all spelled out. Or maybe others would like the same thing. It would sure be friendlier.
-- phibetakitty, 2015-11-10

### ***** "Great"
It's a great game to test your eyes. It starts of easy, but it gets harder and harder. Your eyes might become your worst enemies!
-- Koloshow, 2015-08-23
