Pros and cons of Implode! XL app for iPhone and iPad

Implode! XL app good for

Franchement, jeu original et très bien realisé on en redemande encore et encore... Bravo !

...fixes the crash when loading, which makes this app superb again!

Awesome but the new update finishes installing and then nothing changed and the AppStore still says there is a update.

Very simple apps, one of the hardest puzzle Ive played... Very smart!

Cool concept of having the chalk board as the primary feature of the game with the architectural design of the bombs which can explode is a thumbs up. Having the physics and gravity on the side of the game is amazing to play! awesome job you guys! 5/5.. would be awesome to add MORE levels and different kind of explosive equipment and having the bombs detonate on different times(clock countdown)

Garunteed to keep you busy for some time, I havent gotten bored yet so I cant state how long "time" will be. Although, I can say its lasted an hr straight so far. Implodes sandbox like style keeps you entertained and provides a variety of ways to complete each level. Speaking of levels, there are tons of them. Ive finished the game on normal mode and am now going through expert mode to receive more points and half these levels feel like theyre new although Ive already played them. I rarely post, and if I do its usually to complain but when an app like this deserves a positive post then Ill make one. Giving out 5 stars is also rare, really rare. I really enjoyed this game and its exactly what i was hoping it to be. Thanks and keep up the good work (i just need the sandbox cheat code now!!)

Some bad moments

This game is weak. Minimal content for high price. Im VERY disappointed.

I worked through most of the levels but finally gave up. The physics in Implode! XL is simply too unpredictable to enjoy the game. I was playing in expert mode, and I found that moving just one bomb the slightest amount would often result in a completely different result. There was no way to predict what would happen, which is kinda the point when solving a puzzle. I ended up solving many of the challenges through trial and error and sheer luck, not with critical thinking. The physics is also prone to errors. In some cases, parts of the structure would defy gravity and remain standing on one column. The 5-second timer would sometimes cut off a challenge that was still in the process of falling down. As for the scoring, it seems arbitrary. To get an A+ score you need to exceed the maximum dollar value assigned to each challenge. In some cases, I was able to get an A+ score on the first try, whereas in other cases I spent an hour fiddling with the placement of the bombs but could never get more than a B score.

The latest version shows failure even though it was successful! I cant actually complete project because they all fail!!! Help!!

Even after a reinstall and full reboot, it still crashes immediately upon launch

The game is great but hasnt worked since the 4.2 update and even though it says it should work now, it still crashes on launch.

It is a fun game. But ever since becoming "4.2 Compatible", it immediately crashes upon launch as stated in previous reviews. Removing and reinstalling the game doesnt appear to fix the problem either. I hope it is fixed soon!!!!!!!!!!!
