Comments on Rube Works: Rube Goldberg Game for Android
★★★★★
Loved Rube Goldberg stuff since I played Mousetrap as a kid. I love
overcomplicated contraptions that do a simple task. The only thing not
giving this more stars is lack of added level's and there's little replay
value. Please add more levels, this game has great potential.
★★★★★
Should be 5 stars but.... Love the game. So wonderful. But... Will give five stars just as soon as you remove the vibrate when u grab an item. And also the fact every time I open the app the sound automatically turns back on in the settings. I need completely quite games. These two things really frustrate me especially since its paid app. Please change this
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work on Nexus Could not select the actions icons on my Nexus 4 or 7.
★★☆☆☆
Glitch At level 4 when the monkey slips on the banana peel he will just fall off the table and not grab the trapeze I evan checked the original comic and the monkey does not fall off the table he slips stays on the table and grabs the trapeze
★★☆☆☆
Why the hell does this game request access to my dialer? It asks to be able to make and send calls. Why would that be needed. Also, game is slow and laggy on a note 9. Also, the interface is not great it didn't recognize a lot of touches and there's only one way to do things to my knowledge. Has potential for the future.
