    It was on Playond and they’re gone, so they may still be trying to figure their new distribution.

    Maybe the developer forgot to pay their fees. I've seen it happen before. Hopefully it's temporary.

    Was not aware of the Playond situation. This could be the case then.

    So this was in my download history but when I fire it up, it just freezes on the Puppet Depot screen. Does it work for anyone?

    Not sure what the issue is. I’ve tried deleting and resinstalling, restarting my phone, etc. Game always just loads to the Puppet Depot logo and stays there. Guess it’s toast for me.

    Do you still have the Playond app in your phone? I deleted mine — maybe that makes a difference.

    Nope. Never had the Playpond app. I used to be able to play it even when it was under Playpond since I had purchased it outright.

    So you never had the Playond version of the game? Maybe there was an update you missed.

    Same for me actually. Just tested. I never had playond but bought (? Or was it free) this game ages ago.
    Gets stuck on the logo. I remember starting it up and playing for a few minutes over a year ago though.

    Well what a bunch of cheese.

    edit: and what the heck is this about!

    Some kind of Chinese published version I dare not purchase to try.

    Emailed the dev and never heard back.

    But noticed that that Chinese version dropped to $.99 (was $3.99 last time i checked). Decided to give it a shot. And it’s fully in English. Game seems exactly the same. There are IAPs if you want more gold but seems like you earn plenty and balance seems the same. And of course, the best part is that it actually works. :)

    This was one of my all time favorite iOS games so am glad to have it back even if I had to pay $.99 again.

    I meant to write about that Chinese version. The relationships are complicated, but it seems like Puppet Depot has a new Chinese publisher.

    I’m just glad the new version has English. By the store screenshots I wasn’t sure.
