Comments on Bits Serf - Back to the Basics for Android

★★★★★ Looking good I still play the original on my PC so definitely keeping an eye on this beauty. In my opinion the original is the best in the series. Its looking very good so far. I hate these new games generated by facebook etc. Spend money or take an age to get anywhere. NO, let me just play the whole game my way. Be that me on my own just having fun or having all the enemies on easy so I can wip there behinds. My rules my way. All the best with the future development. Can't wait to play it on my mobile. Good luck.
★★★★★ Suspicious of this You say you're working on the game, yet it hasn't been updated in 3 years... I still want to see this finished though
★★☆☆☆ This game dont work
★★☆☆☆ Finding this little gem of a game had me very excited. I spent a long time playing this when I was younger. Shame that it still not up and running yet even though it seams to of been developing for sometime now. Will try again in the near future
★★☆☆☆ So bad. Out two years and still in unplayable alpha? Just take it down already. It's not getting finished.
★★☆☆☆ Is it going to be playable? I see the reviews from 6 months ago saying it will be playable soon, but is it still being worked on? I loved the original game and hope this project will come to fruition. Will update my review once it's playable.
★★☆☆☆ Still waiting? Noticed this project is still being worked on but nothing for a year? Great promise but I can only get to see the map stage. . Is there a rough completion date? Normally games get added that's playable. It's a shame this one is still waiting. 2 stars until playable.
