Game was simple and short. Gave dollar for donation.
paolo is one of the few great game artists working today. get this app. we are all complicit
Everyone should play this.
Excellent
For a paid app, it takes all of 2 minutes to complete the cycle of mini games in the story mode, and then after that?.. Well it's just the same 2 minute cycle sans the narration. Doesn't warrant paying for despite its good intention.
Don't expect riveting gameplay, but an interesting way to tell a story that needs to be told, and what better way to tell it?
