2020-08-08	Ha*****	...was the final puzzle ... which I play about 20 minutes after buying the game. I would suggest skipping this until they add 100 more puzzles and possibly diagonals.

2020-04-28	Br*****	I experience a lot of mental health symptoms and this game became very calming. Hoping for more levels in the update but I’m definitely happy with my purchase!

2020-04-25	Yu*****	The ‘solution’ to every ‘puzzle’ is one (1) of four (4) moves: 1. Swipe up 2. Swipe right 3. Swipe left 4. Swipe down That’s it. Of note: some of the puzzles require a 2nd swipe! Really adds... nothing. The user interacts w/ each puzzle 1-2 times by swiping. After swiping, the user is then forced to watch the dots travel on their path for 5-10s. Assuming that it takes a full second to swipe, the ratio of time inputting vs. time watching the dots post-input is: 1-2 swipes->1.5 swipes->1.5s spent swiping/inputting 5s-10s dot watching->7.5s spent watching 1.5s/7.5s->3s/15s 3s/15s->1s/5s 1 second of input is followed by 5 seconds watching dots Everyone playing ‘1/2 halfway’ ‘solves’ each ‘puzzle’ with an identical process and solution. One swipe(s) followed by watching your dots travel the same path path for the dot to reach it’s target. There is no creativity, no problem solving, and no challenge. ‘1/2 Halfway’ is ~25m of boredom. That’s 4 minutes, 10.2 seconds of interacting/inputting, compared to 20 minutes, 49.8 seconds watching dots dance around.

2020-04-22	Li*****	I usually look at reviews before downloading, and I was a bit skeptical at first. I love the music and the minimalistic design. It’s easy with no tutorial, but it’s just swipe to move. I’d love to play more levels and I feel like it’d be a bit more worth it if there were more. Overall, I feel like this is a great game with lots of potential.

2020-04-21	Tu*****	$1.99 for a game with horrifically easy puzzle design with some ugly line visuals? I would have more sympathy if the game was free but this is crazy. Each level usually consists of no more than 1 or 2 moves. There is no challenge in it. Additionally, the simple line art comes across more as lazy than artistic. The only reason this game uses this line aesthetic is to reduce the need for art assets. Again, if it was free Id have more sympathy. But this game looks like something a 16 year old could whip together in 2 days. I’m going to see if I can get a refund. Giving 2 stars instead of one because at least the description of the game is honest.
