My kids had this game on their ipad. They asked me to have a go at it, I had a look, started playing... 30 minutes later "Dad can I have my my ipad back". Seriously I was hating that game, but the desire to beat my kids score outweighed my frustration at some of those issues (hitbox of the pipes etc). I HAD to beat my previous score, I HAD to master the delicate touch required to precisely navigate those pipes. It's not even a new mechanic. It's the same as Jet Pack Joyride, so it's a copy of existing games, and it completely flogged Mario world graphics, possibly stole them as is and the guy might even have to answer to Nintendo.

It isn't on my list of games I've loved, but it was fun, in a completely infuriating way.

It's better than other games my kids typically play, ice-cream manufacturing/construction type games
