Ratings and reviews

I didn't expect this game to be as good as it is. Basically, this is a puzzle game in which you traverse the dungeon of the Dreadrock King to find your brother. I love the writing and dialogue, it's funny. The mechanics are a lot of fun, and the puzzles never get old. There are 100 stages, then it's done. I paid for the version without ads, otherwise you have to watch one every time you move between stages. Which isn't too bad but I chose not to.

Good, until level 73. On level 73, the only way to beat the level is to trick a drow into shooting no more nor less than 7 arrows into a pair of teleporters so they'll kill a minotaur, and all you have to do is run from the drow, around a pillar. But the drow is a hunter, not a thug. It doesn't chase, it stalks ... leading it to wander ... into a minotaur's fist, it's own arrow, or the trap door button ... and then the trap door. The game really can't progress past level 73.

It's cute but genuinely why would you make a mobile game with such half assed controls? My first thought would have been to add a dpad, but no. You opted to have us have to drag basically across the entire screen to move at all. frustrating when the first levels are basically purely about movement. For the response: That's literally the first thing I tried doing. Googled how to as well. There was absolutely zero dpad option for me.
