What Users Love
Game is fun and great to pass time
Basic (no frills) Fun & challenging game
Pain Points
There are so many optional ad things... the banner ads on every start screen and the video ads every two rounds are so excessive
For every 30 seconds of gameplay it’s like 2 full minutes of ads
I load into 'Level X' which was not what I left on. All my arrows were gone.
The game is broken and I am unable to play the game at all.
