Ratings and reviews

Most innovative idea in gaming this decade. Sadly not fun. Platformer is just "Wait for vibration, then shake". Shooter is just me spinning around in circles and getting dizzy. I'll give coin game the benefit of the doubt and say that I'm just bad at it. I accidentally interrupted the voice on the title screen and figured out the menu by myself except for the requirement to shake to select because shaking the phone is simply something that is rarely utilized from my experience.

I can see the effort but I must say it is lacking some detail or backup accessibility for now. When I scroll up and down I don't hear any game description. add one when we double tap anytime after the vibration. When opening the game the first time, an accidental touch on the screen skips the tutorial and the game starts. Only for the first time ignore the tap until tutorial has completed. Games are nice. We have a full range of swipe motions on the phone. Please use them.

I love the game, or games. But the only thing is, I don't like it when it doesn't narrate the list of games that are within the app itself. And I also don't like the fact that whenever you play the games, it don't tell you whether you're winning or losing.
