The flash version will help you out by selecting orbs near where you clicked, but not so much on the iDevice version. I find it to be pretty difficult on my iTouch, but I enjoy it. Wish I could master walljumping though. The ranomized layout makes it hard to keep my momentum when it suddenly throws a long corridor up ahead with only one or two orbs that I can't or can barely reach.

Also I find the physics a bit weird and hard to get used to. Does it get easier the more you play it? Please reply back to this comment saying whether or not to get it (with reasons if you want). If 3 people reply back saying to get it I will. I'm still debating whether or not to buy this one being as I can easily play the flash version for free.

I read TA because I enjoy getting reviews and opinions from people who know their onions. I would like a review of this if not to hear that it's lacking scoreboards, or that the sound quality is lacking compared to other games, etc. And what YOU think of the game. :) Well Eli, I think you know a lot more about iDevice games than anyone here because you've played more than we have.

I can't for the life of me figure out how to do wall jumping or whatever. Sometimes I'll get throw into a corridor with just orbs going straight up, but I'm required to wall jump because the orbs are way too far up and there's no way my hook can reach. I've resorted to looking at some Youtube vids, which has helped me get a little better, but wall jumping is still something of a mystery to me. I'm liking it, but man it's hard to get used to.
