Ratings and reviews

Looks great! I would love it, if it worked. LOL The controls are a little clunky, but the real problem is that they don't work half the time. The triangles that point out your direction of travel... well, some of them randomly turn black, even when it's perfectly obvious from the diagram that you can move in that direction. Other times they will be lit up, but still the game won't let you move that way. Too bad. If they fix that it could be a great game.

It's not letting me switch to alt accounts. I have a couple games I play that I have alternate accounts on. I used to be able to switch back and forth between them. When I log out then attempt to log back in under different username, google play pops up briefly then crashes. I have to exit the game, go into app settings and optimize android, then go back in to switch accounts. Time consuming and frustrating.

How does this *still* not have a feature to organize games that you've added? C'mon Google. Not even a sort by your rating? Tags or folders? Genre sort? ANYTHING? Alphabetical is not helpful at all, nor is last updated. Last played *might* have been, but if you click the wrong one, well, it's at the top now. Until there's a way to sort with any functionality, I'll keep using my app folders and skip this launcher.
