Features

• Over 25 beautifully rendered levels for you to explore
• Various mini-games which take full advantage of the touch screen
• Save up to five player profiles, and be able to pick up your game exactly where you left off
• Comic book-esque cut scenes reveal the intriguing plot of the game

Limitations

• Buggy, specifically the player profile screen (deleting or adding a player would cause the game to crash)
• Apparently, tapping on items that are not on the list cuts extra time off from the clock (Yes, the levels are timed), but this happens at random, as sometimes you can go tap-happy and get away with it
