Crashes Way Too Much
Granted Im currently playing this on my iPhone 6S, but Ive played other older iPhone games which do not give me even half as much trouble as this one. This includes a few that I have been pulled out of the app store by their developers for being too old and archaic in terms of their gameplay controls (like Shining Force) that do not have any stability issues. My phone being too new for the game shouldnt be an issue and if it is, Warner Bros isnt exactly a small developer that cannot afford to update its apps if theyre going to keep them in the App Store.
The way this game is, any time you try to buy wizards, red bricks, etc, there is a high change that when you click the arror to leave the shop, it just crashes such that you have to keep trying. Completely shutting down and rebooting your iPhone sometimes helps, but there isnt a consistent workaround that always work to get past the crashing. The same thing happens when click on the backpack or even click on the arrow to exit out, which makes it amazing that I got the Quiet Please! achievement on the first try as this involves going into the options while in the Restrict Section level to completely turn down the music and sound.
Also for some reason the way the screen flickers on the iPhone, all the dark levels gives me a migrane, which is an issue I never had when I played the Nintendo DS version of this game thus only further adds to the disappointment that the iPhone version is ultimately less convenient than carry around a game system on top of an iPhone.
