Now I'm glad I didn't take the plunge when it first came out, but I didn't want to blow $5 on a game that people were saying had control issues. jeffyg3 Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2010 1,251 0 36 #14 jeffyg3, Jun 29, 2012 It's a great download, but yeah the controls need some work. Would be nice if you tap on a guy and it shows you what blocks you can move. I hate that the camera goes back to your guy if you miss a shot, you have to repan the camera to innovate the attack. And would be nice if you can zoom out on the camera on the iPad. Maybe make a more intuitive way to attack? Other than these gripes, and they're fairly annoying as you play, it's a good game.
