Thanks in advance https://www.producthunt.com/posts/taps codeulike Active Member Apr 4, 2017 29 0 0 #3 codeulike, Aug 7, 2017 Really enjoyed playing this one, its a very simple concept but very engaging and it soon gets tricky. It reminded me of minesweeper a bit, although its also quite different! Loved the music as well. kinoro Well-Known Member Mar 5, 2014 96 6 8 #4 kinoro, Aug 7, 2017 That's very kind thank you I have a couple of questions if that's ok? I have been getting plenty of great feedback but it's difficult to engage with people on the app store. What did you think of the music? Did you feel it was suitable for the game? Did you turn it off? How long did you play for? Do you feel compelled to come back and try to progress further? Would you recommend it to friends/family? Ok slightly more than a couple. But your feedback is definitely heard AND valued! Kind regards, Russ kinoro Well-Known Member Mar 5, 2014 96 6 8 #5 kinoro, Aug 10, 2017 Update released: - iPad support added! - minor bug fixes Please play and i encourage you to come back and make any suggestions, they WILL be heard. Bethwalshy New Member Aug 10, 2017 1 0 0 #6 Bethwalshy, Aug 10, 2017 Hi, Game looks really good and I'm enjoying playing so far! Love how the levels get progressively more difficult, think you've got a really good concept here. MintCity Well-Known Member Jun 24, 2016 200 1 18 #7 MintCity, Aug 11, 2017 This puzzle game is based off of an amazingly simple concept but don't be fooled... it's absolutely brilliant! This is definitely one of my favorite puzzle games on my phone right now. It's a bit hard to describe in words but every tap you do on the puzzle board produces five squares of 1's in the shape of a cross. You add more taps to the board to accumulate 1's together in order to produce larger numbers. The entire goal of doing this is to match a board of numbers that each level presents you. I would suggest watching a video of the game if you still feel confused about the gameplay mechanics. Taps' menus are neat and clean. Its soft color pallet is perfect for a game that requires thought. There's nothing harsh on the eyes here. The game's music is great and I found it to be stimulating for the mind, while still being entertaining to listen to. It's also a bonus that the dev is responsive and dedicated to the game. He has already put in a new update to add a few small animations in-game. If you're looking for a solid puzzle game that doesn't use the same old overused formula other puzzle games do, look no further than Taps! kinoro Well-Known Member Mar 5, 2014 96 6 8 #8 kinoro, Aug 11, 2017 Hi BethWalshy, kind words thank you! Random question - how long have you played the game for? Have you managed to get up to the advanced game mode? kinoro Well-Known Member Mar 5, 2014 96 6 8 #9 kinoro, Aug 11, 2017 Wow!

Enjoy! Duke12 Well-Known Member Oct 25, 2013 1,018 41 48 #15 Duke12, Sep 25, 2017 Tapping "play campaign" does nothing for me. Custom works except if you go back from where you choose size of the game etc and tap campaign. After that even custom wont work without restart.
