Good game, frequent crashes. The audio continues to play but the game completely freezes. Restarting the game fixes it for a moment, but it crashes again shortly thereafter. Occurs during menu transitions, as you start a new game or get defeated. Too bad, I was a huge fan. Edit: Seems the bugfixes sorted it! Increased from 2 to 4 stars. Would rate 5 if progression wasn't so slow and limited.

I always loved this game, the visuals and mechanics are awesome. But there is a bug that makes it borderline unplayable. Oftentimes, a soldier will land of the wall but the wizard will not die, leaving me stuck in that scene with the soldiers celebrating their invasion and the wizard just standing there. I'm forced to restart the game losing all my coins and highscores. It happens more often than not. I guess it has something to do with the shockwave animation from the soldier's foot.

[BUGS] In Classics mode, a yellow soldier got through but the ending animation doesn't show, and I could not do anything else. The game doesn't end. Since this is a 6-year-old game, I think there won't be any new updates. But i think the onboarding experience could get better by a compulsory tutorial during the player's first session, with simplified UI. I played the game 6 years ago, it's still very good <3 solid art style and phenomenal gameplay

Very good game with unique play style and graphics. There are some few bug issues that can be resolved like when an enemy lands it's instantly game over as when I play there is a 50% chance that when an enemy lands I don't lose, the screen just gets stuck which makes me have to reopen the app. Overall very good game :)

One of the best games I've found for burning time and just having Something to do - very easy to pick up and put down, no limits on replay, and has no real time gimmicks, nor between level ads. The big trouble is that the game often locks up at the end of a run in ways that require you to restart the app - and the time between relaunch and play adds up over time to be agonizing. You also lose coins, but i play mostly to occupy myself at like, waiting rooms, so it's more a mild annoyance.

Everything time I pause the game for some reason a few seconds later it resumes but I'm still in the pause menu, another thing is that everytime I lose and try to start another round the transition screen freeze's but the round still continues, when the round ends after starting one it freezes and I have to close the app and re-open it. Please fix this as soon as possible.

Game is very fun, I've always loved magic touch. However, this game has a weird issue where sometimes a knight landing will not kill me. When this happens, the game locks up completely and I have to restart it, losing my coin reward for the game. This is extremely frustrating and makes unlocking new items basically up to luck. Is this game still supported, and can the developers look into this?

It's a pretty fun and cool game. (Most Nitrome mobile games are) The only problem is that I have to restart the app every other game I play. (Meaning I can't play more than one game before it messes up and I have to restart it.) The animation gets stuck when you die. I had barley downloaded the game so I thought it was normal and that I was missing something or doing something wrong. I thought it was a chance to redeem yourself after dying lol.

Very buggy. Glitches like the transition checkers sprite covering the screen indefinitely requiring a reset, as well as a glitch that doesn't kill the wizard when you lose the game, but rather keeps it animated without ending the game, requiring a reset and NULLING all the coins you just aquired makes this game nearly unplayable. Wish it wasn't this way because I quite enjoy it when it doesn't break itself.

This game is a ton of fun to play with a stylus, but there's a horrible glitch where the wizard doesn't die when an enemy touches the ground. It makes you have to quit the game and lose your high score. Super annoying. The rest of the game is a blast though.
