A simple, fun game.

*Important note: the update to iOS 8.4 has left this game unplayable for me. I truly hope that the developer releases a patch, as now when the game loads I get the main selection screen’s mirror image, and none of the buttons are selectable, which means I can’t start a new game.*

The game itself is fun, if a bit basic. It’s kind of like a dice-based Oregon Trail-y game, set in Africa and offering the player minimal choices to differentiate their journey and spice things up. There are hazards one must try to avoid, resources and weapons to be collected to ward off danger, and just a touch of skill necessary in order to make it to the final destination. Mostly though, the game hinges upon luck.

I like it, but would love to see it get fixed up–and in a dream world–expanded a little bit.
