Needs a update!

Kind of a bummer to pay to remove ads on a game and then not be able to play it. We loved this game! Please fix it!


I just want to play! :(

Game crashes upon launch.. Loading screen appears and color droplet starts to drop into the Play button, then app crashes. HELP!


Crashes at launch :(

Same as previous comment.


Fantastic app... back when it worked

I loved this game. However it is unfortunate but since iOS 12 it refuses to launch. Makes sense as the last update was 3 years ago... but oh well. Hopefully it gets updated even though I don’t foresee it. If so I will gladly change back to a 5 star review.


Crash on launch

I read a great article about this game written by Erica Gorochow. This is why I downloaded the game. I was disappointed to discover that the game cannot be run on iOS 12.


crashes immediately on XS

Love this game. Can't stop playing. Plus getting good at telling colors apart...


The COLORS

I love the idea alone someone made a game out of color theory and perception. But to have it this good, well thought out, beautiful and fun to interact with is just aces. Not to mention completely addictive and maddening when your eyes seem to give out on you! Highly recommended


Super fun

Really fun and beautiful design.

Fun, clean, addictive. Great for playing in short bursts or longer subway rides. It's very satisfying to get better at detecting subtle differences in hue, luminance and saturation. Spectrums that used to look like ten of the same color become conquerable over time.
