I got it at $.99 but it would have been well worth the $1.99. repapermunky Well-Known Member Aug 29, 2012 624 0 0 #7 repapermunky, Mar 19, 2013 This game desperately need network multiplayer rather than just Bluetooth. In this day and age, it's a shame it wasn't there from the beginning. Would've been fun to play random people. Jazzpha Well-Known Member Apr 26, 2012 776 16 18 #8 Jazzpha, Mar 19, 2013 While I do agree with you, I can see how setting up multiplayer for this game would be a huge technical and logistical pain. Given how fast each game can move, any smidgen of lag could easily decide the flow of a game. If multiplayer outside of bluetooth does get implemented, my guess is it won't be for a while.

KennyK Well-Known Member Feb 2, 2011 4,732 0 0 Scarlett Johansson's Hot Tub #10 KennyK, Mar 20, 2013 Brilliant! shero89 Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2012 1,020 0 36 #11 shero89, Mar 20, 2013 Indeed morgantj Well-Known Member Dec 8, 2011 230 0 0 Computer Specialist #12 morgantj, Mar 20, 2013 I paid 99 cents for this game and have no regrets. I don't mind that it went on sale for free. Certainly there was the, "Damnit, had I of only waited a bit longer..." but I can't blame developers for strategically taking advantage of the conditions of the IOS store environment as needed to maximize their return. When they are able to maximize their return, customers can often reap the benefits from the potential of future updates. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
