uhh, no... if you don't like the icon, don't download the update. Even if it has major improvements over its previous versions... :rolleyes:

As for me, I prefer functionality over looks...

Don't really like the new icon, but I have to agree that they have to do this to appeal their app as a puzzle game. At least the game is still good to play when you're bored :)

The update is a big disappointment for me. :( There was a bug in the last version that didn't allow me to get tools (thus no blueprints or anything). This update was supposed to fix that, and it hasn't. So I'm still unable to play the game. All it lets me do is mine.

You sure you downloaded the update? Mine is working. And about the blueprints...I think you just need to work your way in mining resources and leveling up your characters to get the blueprints.

I don't get what is so amazing about this game other than it's presentation and the fact its free. The actual game is way too easy. There's hardly any challenge since you can move the pieces however you want. The leveling up aspect is pretty pointless as well. Am I missing something???

How far have you gotten in the game?. The game speeds up quite a bit and the Puzzles/Challenges that you need to solve are quite challenging.

IMO it should speed up at a faster rate. I'm at lvl 26 and am still pulling up new blocks all the time. I'm never in danger of losing, so to me, that says it's too easy. I guess it might get hard at 75 or 80 or something, but that's too many hours of playing until it gets challenging.

I'd say the most challenging part is making the plans. For example, the number of resources you need to collect starts getting to 140 for just one element within the alloted time. Apparently this number even goes up to 400 near the end of the game. I've failed quite a few times so far because of this. But I agree, it does require quite a time commitment.

Okay, well I reset (deleted) my character information, deleted and reinstalled FOUR TIMES, and it finally worked. Now I can play the game all the way. :)

I understand but hey, its an icon, live with it. It's not going to attack you because you called it ugly, but it may not work well, so id watch out ;)
