A Mediocre Successor to Jumbline
I liked the original Jumbline quite a bit. This, while it offers some nice new features, also hurts itself by tossing some features that made it good. It is laughably void of customisation options to change gameplay to suit ones own preferences. The pace of the new Cloud Pop and Tower modes cannot be controlled, and the time allotted for timed Classic games is now absent.
Much to my own annoyance, the screen now orients itself in all directions. I despise this behaviour in any application, as it makes it impossible to orient the screen suitably when one is laying down on ones side (say, on a couch). A simple solution to the issue employed by many developers is to simply not allow the screen to re-orient itself so it is entirely upside-down.
This version of Jumbline will need to see some serious improvement before its really worthy of being rated a 5-star game.
