Overall Rating: 9.0
  • 8Really inspiring. The game itself is perhaps a bit too simple but the overall experience including the top ten scores :) music and menus is very professional and gives you a feel of comfort
  • 10I wanted to boost it up with 5 stars becuse I evaluated it according to its creation purpose. Quite polished for such a simple game. I must say I found the menus much more advanced and entertaining than the gameplay screen:)
