★★★★★
Really worth the download. This is so simple yet so fun! All the people complaining about : wah wah you have to buy stuff. NO! THIS game does NOT ask you to buy stuff. The option is there to do so just like on any other app so stop complaining. But well done to can22 on this app :) its great to see people working together to gain something as small as a new SOMETHING layer after layer :)
★★★★★
Was an experiment, and is over now This game is several experiments. One is to see what keeps people curious. The other is how do you manage 1000's of people all clicking on cubes at the same time. Has about the entertainment value of bubble wrap (but with temp upgrades). As of May 26, 2013, the last block was clicked and the experiment ended.
★★★★★
So much fun This is such a unique and fun game. I love it.
★★☆☆☆
I have a pretty beastly tablet I should be able to run the with not one bit of lag so don't tell ppl to get a better phone for this game us be retarded
★★☆☆☆
Pointless You just tap a square and it falls off. Gets boring after 5 Seconds. Update: if anyone's curious, someone got the reward. They get to be an in game god that controls all the other players in another game 22cans is developing.
★★☆☆☆
I just knew they were going to start asking for money. All this app is the developers getting free money for people wasting their life tapping squares away w.t.h.I bet in the middle it says do what we just done and try and get rich by making people tap away at there screen like robots see how easily controlled you all are!!!
★★☆☆☆
Disappointing. Unfortinutley, after some research n hacking, the game is programmed to a very disappointing conclusion. The cube is programed to continue adding varities of picture added by 22 cans, and if that wasnt bad enough, the cube doesnt get smaller by anymeans. More importantly, its an app that leads you to no where. With there nothing to be in the box to begin with, app users are picking away millions of useless pixels that will eventually be replaced by 22 cans anyway. I might get spammed for posting this, or more importantly, 22 cans might just delete this review, but this had to be said. i got so curious that i hacked the game to find out that theres nothing in the box. The only reason im giving 2 stars is because of the entertainment i got from hacking the game, but again, disappointing results. Anyway, please. By all means.... dont bother to download this app. ★★
