Not a buy
I'm a huge fan of ball-rolling and platformer games, but this one is just not good. I will admit that the graphics are pretty good, and the music fits very well in the game to create a mood. But the controls are bad, so much so that it makes what could be a great game into an overly difficult one.
The tilt controls are terrible, don't even bother. The touch controls seem like they should work, and are fine at first, but once you get into levels where the terrains are tilted or on an incline, you will fall almost every time because the controls are of no help to you. This is where the game gets frustrating and just not fun anymore.
If you are debating whether or not to get this game, I'd say to just save your frustration, and your dollar.
Worth the buy
Frustrating, but in a good way
Anyone noticed that the cavern of omens lv 4 has a shortcut?..
Climb the mountain wall and go to the left at a moving plant..
