| 2024-06-30 |  | | Absolute waste of time, downloaded it on two different phones and massive glitches, can't even play the game. |
| 2024-03-17 |  | | Many Arab content creators on YouTube play this game. I hope you add the Arabic language because our community is very large. Thank you |

| 2023-08-14 |  | | Ehh. It's the keycard and a timer. I prefer the physical keycard and have no want for a time. But it does what it's supposed to well, as far as I can tell. 🤷♂️ |

| 2021-08-16 |  | | Initially it did not work. After a reboot, all is good and it runs fine. |

| 2020-07-01 |  | | Audio stopped working since the May 2020 update. Reinstalling the app doesn't help. This happens on multiple devices I've tried. Galaxy note 9, galaxy tab A. Other than that, the app is very handy and good |
