    Bought it yesterday and haven't played yet.. And frankly, I'm a bit scared to now..I've heard so many good things but as is always the case on touch devices, it comes down to the controls.. About to just buy this on psn..

    yep this happened to me too, the bar supposed to run automatically once both brothers jump and grab it. im on 6s plus. i dont know if this issue affect certain device or os, or just a universal bugs. please dev, fixed it immediately, this is getting annoying to get a critical bug on a game you really2 wants to play.

    dual thumb stick control mimics the joystick controller on ps3 perfectly and since the control in this game is really that simple, i dont see the urge need of MFi here. but yeah, they need to tweaks the swipe to look around sensitivity a little bit more.

    it is intentional and no, defintely not a bug. this can be confirmed by there is no subtitle even on the console version as far as i can remember.

    I'm there too! I've done that at least 15 times, restarting the chapter and the little brother won't jump off of the second windmill

    Wish they would get 50-100 alpha/beta testers that actually play through the game. I really wish I didn't spend money on launch day for games to be stuck 2-3 hours in to wait 3 weeks for version 1.1 update to come out. By then it's gonna get deleted or I've moved onto another game.

    its not a bug hehehe, i was thinking the same too at first, just tap anywhere on the right side to drop the character. this method is also applied when
    both of character have to jump on the castle wall, with the rope attached on one to another and they have to swing alternately. only this time, you have to tap based on which character you want to drop(big brother left side, lil bro right side)

    The name of this game really cracks me up.
    I'm pretty sure "brothers" wouldn't be called "two daughters".
    If I never heard of this game before the title isn't exactly appealing enough for me to even open the description.

    approximately 2.5-3hours on first play. maybe even more if you want to enjoy the scenery and to collect all the achievement.

    That's a shame.... You're missing on one of the most beautiful story telling in any video game. It's a beautiful emotional story and probably the best emotional story driven game on mobile

    Playing on ip6 and air 2 and it's just lovely so far, playing little bits each day to make it last! Controls are really good on air 2 which I must confess, has become my go-to device for gaming these days when at home. Well worth the price, invokes the fondest memories of playing through Ico for the first time, which reminds me, I must keep playing to decode what the hell that girl actually says ###
