    My first review was negative but the Dev actually took the time to read and make game adjustments it's actually quite a nice game now to bump up the difficulty again. I give the developer a thumbs up now mainly because he actually cares and listens to the comments people are putting in. Thanks

    I hate leaving a bad review for this game, as the developer means well and by all evidence is a really good guy that just wants to make a good, fun game. But it just isn't balanced well at all. Good games have a concept of ramp built into them. They introduce the game, the mechanics, the goals, and then they give you things to do that provide slight challenge so that you get the concepts down before the game starts…
