Buggy? – Stencilsmith Review

This game seems like a gem —great graphic design, intuitive gameplay, and bona fide indie to boot. However, I've encountered a bug that renders it completely unplayable. Namely, stencils do not disappear after they are crafted. For example, if I combine a basic pickaxe stencil with an earth tile, it will produce an iron stencil with can be moved around accordingly; however, the images of both original stencils remain in the space that they were combined in, covering anything underneath and making it impossible to see. In just a few moves, the entire board is covered with these "ghost stencils", making a cluttered mess that hides all the stencils in play. Additionally, the developer is only reachable through social media, with no direct email available; this makes support mildly annoying, since I don't want to have to create a Twitter account or sign up with Facebook to report game malfunctions. As it stands, the app design is fantastic; however, the aforementioned bug is a killer. Because of this, I can't give this game the rating it deserves.
