This game is a true vision, firstly because the developers left the option of additional narration open, and secondly because the game is polished enough to be an amusing gem-collecting-time-killer. It's when you combine the seemingly pointless gem collecting, odd object placement and endless exploration with little text to explain what is happening, you enter a world that delivers much more than a Mario-clone platformer, or major game remake for your handheld. I applaud the developers and will patiently wait for any updates or sequelss." -MeMyselfOrWho"HOLY MOTHER OF GEEZUS!!! cryptic -_-" -Zithorio"Another great Indie game that oozes a lot of character that some of the bigger games lack. " -Goose2K"1: This game is creepy.2: This game is sad.3: This game us unconventional to the point that I wonder if I should even call it a game.If you can cope with those three facts, do yourself a favor and skip all the spoiler-heavy reviews and buy this app. It's 99 cents, a cheap price to pay for an experience you're not likely to see duplicated." -Tom Mayflower Information Seller: Genre:Adventure Release:Feb 02, 2011 Updated:Nov 30, -0001 Version: Size:0.0 TouchArcade Rating:Unrated User Rating: (12) Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal Looks great! syntheticvoid Well-Known Member Jun 20, 2010 14,504 124 63 Musician & factory worker. a[V-O-I-D] http://apparentsymmetry.bandcamp.com #2 syntheticvoid, May 14, 2011 Last edited: May 14, 2011 WOOHOO!! this has been on my list of apps to get for a while now...

I just realized that you can rotate your iPod to change the gravity of the world... this game just got 10x better!!! =oD KiddToKmart Well-Known Member Feb 10, 2011 1,399 0 0 #8 KiddToKmart, May 14, 2011 Yeah. Tried it with my iPad 2.... unpleasant results X( bluecomb84 Well-Known Member Dec 16, 2010 233 0 0 Debt Collector Long Island, NY #9 bluecomb84, May 14, 2011 Does anyone know the point of this game? I played for about 5 minutes and came across a giant worm that didn't do anything to me. syntheticvoid Well-Known Member Jun 20, 2010 14,504 124 63 Musician & factory worker. a[V-O-I-D] http://apparentsymmetry.bandcamp.com #10 syntheticvoid, May 14, 2011 Enjoyment? A couple of the reviewers said that this is more a story-game than anything else... I'd have to agree with that. It's just an exploration game where you look for collectibles. Kind of like Kometen (which I HIGHLY recommend if you're looking for a relaxing zen-like game!). =o) undeadcow Well-Known Member Dec 4, 2010 9,493 2 36 Houston, TX #11 undeadcow, May 15, 2011 Last edited: May 15, 2011 I remember Broken King's marathon make a new game every weekend which resulted in this title.

Any point to still playing after credits? doodlejumper Well-Known Member Jan 27, 2010 2,881 2 0 Stuck in traffic #15 doodlejumper, May 16, 2011 Really fun. Waited forever for a free sale, but broke about 45 days ago. Totally worth my buck though. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
