I used to play this game when my family went to the Apple store (they had a demo.) I wasn’t interested in shopping so I would head straight to the iPads. I always loved this game but I wasn’t allowed to spend money on the App Store. Fast-forward to today, I’ve seen it around on the App Store but just couldn’t pull the trigger to spend five dollars. I was excited when I saw that it was coming to Apple Arcade. I pre-ordered it and download it last night. Buying it has brought back a lot of memories. It’s a fantastic game with great graphics, an interesting and humorous storyline, and some tricky situations. If any of these appeal to you please download the game now… you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for such a great game! Arcade is getting better!!!

I normally do not write reviews. However I am making an exception for this game.What a fun little game which takes me back to the video games of the 80s and early 90s. Yes I’m old… The graphics, controls, in the art of the game are beautiful. I found myself draining my phone battery playing this game. I did not want to put it down and when I did I couldn’t wait to get back to it.Congratulations to the crew that designed this game, job well done, you hit a home run.

Pros - The graphics are beautiful, the story is cute, and some of the gameplay is really fun.Cons-Maybe it is just my device or my experience level but some levels were just unbearably annoying. In a lot of games like this, they typically come with in app purchases. I don’t like in app purchases but things like free skips or hints might be offered. This game has none of that which if you are dedicated is great but for me just sucked the joy out of the game. By the end, I didn’t really care I just wanted to get it over with because of how obnoxious the levels were and the obnoxious red flash every single time you die. So you really have to grind through a lot of it. I think a lot of this is personal preference but I think this game is best suited for players who have strong timing and dedication.

I’m beginning to feel like most of these Apple Arcade games are poor versions of existing titles you could purchase outside the arcade, which seems to make them not have as much support as the other version of said title. In this case, there are multiple reviews mentioning a “downloading new content” bug (which I am also experiencing) which keeps you from moving forward past the first few levels. There hasn’t been a bug fix or update in over a month and I see this game advertised actively on the Arcade still. I’ve gone so far as to leave the app open and my phone plugged in overnight to see if it would download the content needed to keep playing, nope! This is a major flaw and needs an update.
