This was such a fun game that I didn't mind having to start over from level 1 when I reinstalled on my new phone... until I realised that you can't go past level 40 without paying now! I'd gotten past level 60 on my old phone and never needed to pay. Uninstalling out of principle - I'd have no issue paying for more levels beyond the initial 120, but I'm not paying for the same levels I used to have free access to.

It's a legit puzzle game that's a lot of fun to play and collect high exp achievements without ads pissing you off. I'll consider buying premium after reaching lvl.40, but "Endless Mode" doesn't work (S10) and causes the game to hang (force close). The recent update just promotes the new Hocus 2 game - no new features or fixes. Not ideal for a premium game.

This game gives me a headache. I love it. No constant ads, the premise is simple, but the levels take advantage of optical illusion type stuff. You gotta figure out how to traverse impossible looking shapes. I will say I would describe it more as an adventure game than a puzzle game, because of how difficult it is to map your moves, due to the weirdness of the shapes, so you gotta kind of discover the path to the exit rather than solve it. But I like it.
