Meh.

Starts easy - almost too slow - then quickly gets hard fast. With some practice and thinking, one can learn to survive for a while, but it just gets harder. I found it annoying that while there is an alarm for nodes which aren’t getting enough power, once it’s going off there’s usually nothing one can do - it goes off too late to be useful.

Enjoyable relaxing game

I am enjoying the game. It’s a fun game that becomes challenging as you play. I am really looking forward to more play modes. It would also be nice if it was more obvious when a new node shows up. Often I lose a game because one is alerting me that I has no power and I didn’t even realize it was there. Also, it would be cool if you could adjust your connections while the game was paused

Basic

The game only includes a single mode: a “highscore” mode. The developers should really add levels to the game. Until then, I don’t think this game is worth more than 99 cents.

Insanely fun, insanely hard

I think this game gets too hard too fast? There’s no reasonable ramp-up. I’ve wasted hours getting to the same spot and dying, but I’ve tried everything and can’t seem to get past it. I second the other reviewers who said there needs to be some kind of alert when new nodes pop up. And a way to mix up your connections while paused.

Node generation bug

Fun game but there are some bugs with it. One major one is node will not push the energy to the node even though all of the connecting nodes have charged the node. If I have to power a node of 9 and I connect a 5 and 3 and a 1, if all three pulse to make 9, then the game will not push the energy to the 9 node, and the node needs to be charged a second time in order for it to take and push the energy. This always causes me to lose the game.

Buggy. But Fun when it works.

I expected more for a game that I paid for but it’s a fun and challenging experience. It’s very one dimensional but this forces you to make hard decisions. It’s also buggy from time to time which makes it annoying when you have to start over from making good progress.

Looking forward to future releases

This game has potential. My chief complaints: —in casual mode you can’t pause the game and then come back several hours or a day later to resume it. —In regular mode, there are no hints telling you if it’s good or bad to reuse a node you’ve already made or better to create a new one. For that matter there are no hints or guidelines for best practices. So if you don’t feel like being a game scientist and experimenting with different types of gameplay, (which, let’s be honest, not many people

Much better with the new update!

Everything seems fixed.

Engaging but buggy

I second the other reviews. It’s a good game but it is pretty buggy.

Seems cool

Seems cool, but it’s currently buggy and there’s absolutely no tutorial.

Dragging connectors broken on iOS14.

Fun game. Until I upgraded to iPhone 12. Now, the connectors don’t stick to the circles. :-)
