    I noticed a lot of people wishing this was real time. Is that going to become true in the future?

    I haven't played still waiting for the update instead but I personally wouldn't like rts on this game as for me tbs is so much better for dungeon raid type play.

    Also for the other comment about why keep playing from what I can gather the carrot on the stick is unlocking new characters and items and beating your high score.

    There needs to be a focus on speed, or a focus on strategy. Right now there is neither. You can get very far just mindlessly tapping in blocks and there isn't even pressure to find them. I get bored after about five minutes.

    It's a shame because this game ticks so many of my boxes, but even Candy Crush has more involved matching than this. There's rules and pressure - things that make a game.

    I wanted to love this so much, but I just can't see where all the high praise us coming from. The production values and content are fantastic, but the gameplay really needs a few tweaks.

    I have to agree. All this game did for me was fire up 10000000, and fall back in love with that game

    Yeah! Update!

    Whoever said The Witch was powerful wasn't joking, there's no compare with other characters I've unlocked.
    I agree, Block Legend is a casual time waster with battles that are fun but it feels like something's missing.
    There's not much battery drain, about what you'd expect from a retro pixel game.

    I've been reading comments and asking myself if this game has been overrated...

    Thanks for waiting! お待たせしました!

    So the v1.02 update was approved and now ready to download. Please check it out! Worked all the way up to last night fixing and submitting builds to Apple so it'd be the best it could be in this timeframe. Keep in mind, the priority of this update is functionality and stability. There are still a few issues with balance/overlapping items, but nothing that should stop you from playing the game or experiencing all the content we have to offer. I understand a lot of you were pretty upset, but I was probably more upset than anyone actually that people were missing out on the rest of the neat stuff we have. We've got like 14 NPCs and you only saw 3 so far! And dungeons! And equipment! And and an-, well please look for yourself =).

    Thanks everybody for your patience and playing our game. We really appreciate it.

    Loving it. Truly feel like I'm rave playing. My strategy has been to match everything that isn't magic while traveling as fast as possible then magic them to death in battle (with the Witch) I buff Vitality pretty much only.

    Well, looks like I'll be buying this now. A dev that works this hard and fast gets my two bucks any day :D

    Just bought it, based on reviews and the quick update (and fixes), and it works just fine on my IPad Mini with Retina.

    Is anyone else noticing some inconsistencies with the shield system, or is it just me? I think I have a basic understanding of the system and math involved, but it never seems to follow any rules that I can predict. Anyone have a solid understanding of the shield and integrity system they want to share?

    Only problem I have now is that it crashes right after I get killed and try to tap the arrow to scroll through the stat pages at the end of a game. It's not a huge deal, though, mainly because it seems to save everything you unlocked before it crashes.

    Many thanks for the fix for my ipad Air. Changed my points from 1 to 5. I'll have to hang a DONT DISTURB sign outside my door. I've been waiting to play this and as soon as I saw the update appear it was whoopee. Fits very nice with ipad Air. Very well done.

    The one thing that the devs have omitted which is really, really needed in the top left hand corner is a CLOCK like in WOW. All the best games do that like Final Fantasy and I find it helps me keep track..

    Ill have to wait until later today to see how this pans out on an itouch4. It wasn't specifically mentioned in the update but here's hoping.

    I've spent about an hour with the update, unfortunately the crashing on iPod 4 remains the same. Hopefully the dev is looking into this and can fix it in a later update.

    @lethardicus, any chance of GameCenter integration at some point? I really like the game and I've not had a single issue on my iPhone 4S. Fun game, thank you :D
