Brog mode: 26

Haven't tried the other two modes yet. I like this. Wasn't too sure about the controls at first but then I learned to take things slow and started to find the groove.

Much like Ziggurat I will probably never see the ending but I'll sure enjoy trying.

Terror mode: 11
Vortex mode: 7

Snappy and hypnotic is probably how I would describe this at the moment. In fact it is how I'm describing it! I love the explosion every time you die.

Got 24 in Vortex Mode just now on the iPad mini! It's much easier on a bigger screen compared to my iPhone 5.

Managed to consistently reach 21 in Terror Mode just now. Basically the strategy at this point seems to boil down to correctly identifying three basic enemy behaviors: the ones that seek you out, the ones that are just passing through and the ones that drift in and just hang out.

You want to ignore the ones that are just passing through and focus on the ones that are just hanging out while avoiding the ones that seek you out. Try and avoid the edge of the screen if possible and just stick to the middle area.

When it gets crowded don't panic, just slow way down and very gently work your way to the edge of whatever cluster you happen to be in so you can encircle the whole lot at once.

Also I noticed sometimes in Terror Mode I have a little shield thingy that seems to be encircling me at the start, like the ones on the enemies when I encircle them, but it goes away when I hit the flashing square thing that floats in occasionally. Though sometimes the square has boxed edges and that means it can kill me. I don't know what happens if I let it encircle me completely, I'm assuming I die.

I like how this is all deviously simple to grasp but devilishly difficult to master. I'm really liking it.

Looks like a game I'd find frustrating, but that's a nice soundtrack. (I might try the game anyway.)


Yeah even if it's not your thing you're only out a few bucks total. Little risk, big (potential) reward!
