I was starting to get frightened that I had wasted my money, since I started reading reviews after I already dropped $12 on this game. I played it for 5-6 hours and I honestly feel it offered a fun experience and some challenge. I hadn't played the phone version or other versions before, so it seemed new to me. If indeed you can get it cheaper on another platform, then do it, but $12 seemed, to me, like I wasn't wasting money, compared to other reviewers' views (having no prior knowledge of the game and wanting to waste a few hours). It's a fun game.
