This ap is very good to play. For me as a blind, compatibility to talkback is very important which is I found in this ap. Thank you very much to the developers.

I love idea and game my one criticism is I must be best in world at this as on high setting it don't think that long and after constantly beating it I lost idea of a challenge. If any feel they want beating woops I mean playing then give me a challenge. Can you increase the thinking

Note to developer: thanks for trying. It is a good start. But get real. You will NEVER get AI to distinguish between "Beeee", "Ceeee", "Deeee", "Eeeee" and "Geeee". Ain't gonna happen. Even human beings have a very hard time with this over the phone or in recorded messages. Imagine the impossibility with AI speech recognition, spoken into a teeny weenie microphone on a cell phone! The military noticed this about a hundred years ago and promptly invented the phonetic alphabet. Use it!
