First review is pretty brutal and I suspected that they would just port the free mobile version to steam which they did.

Here is the review taken off steam community page.

First of all, and this might be the main part of my review, this version is nothing more then the mobile version which came out some years ago. Now people might say "well then its just bad coz its a bad port" or maybe they will say "its just a ripoff" or stuff like.

To be honest, it indeed -is- a very very bad port from the mobile version, here the facts why:

- It has no ingame store. This might be good for one reason but you might will see later why i count this up.

- Normaly, there was a Extra wheel you could spin every 2 hours for free stuff you could get. in this version, its gone.

- On the mobile version, the DLCs are only half the price (around 1€). Next to this, i think they "over did" it a bit with the Retro DLC at least, i mean, honestly, i know the old levels from 1984 originals Boulder Dash but why they even putted the ORIGINAL BONUS LEVELS as OWN LEVELS in there? I mean those Levels were not even BIG or something (look screenshot if you dont belive me, srs.)

- You still have to farm a lot stuff for characters and you really need, N-E-E-D a lot stuff for characters. the first one might be quick to get but others, i mean the first needs 5 special stones but the next needs already 50 OTHER special stones small spoiler:

- the pricetag. If you look for your mobile for this Boulder Dash version you might find it very quickly - for F-R-E-E . Exactly. This version is just a PORT from a FREE TO PLAY game. They didnt changed ANYTHING. The only thing is, in the steam version, you can build your own Levels, no extra wheel and the lack of the Ingame store. NO extra start money, youre NOT able to even buy more gold coz there is no store, NO extra wheel you could spin, not even other characters OR more stages, nothing more.

Fact
I dont recomment this to people who actually have a mobile phone and have the opinion to get the same game for FULL FREE. Its "easier" since you just can "buy" stuff if you want, have the free extra wheel every 2 hours and the dlcs are cheaper. 15€ for such bad port is a exorbitant price if the only thing you get is a Editor, 5€ or maybe 7€ could be worth it but since you only lose a lot stuff and only get a editor, its really not worth such high pricetag if you still remember you could get the full game F-R-E-E...

It gives a lot other free Boulder Dash clones which are, already said, FREE to get with Editors and like. So for real, better get the mobile version, there at least you have the opinion to buy the stuff you need to farm for each characters faster and every 2 hours even a "bit" free. I dont recomment it, not even hardcore fans only if they really really want or dont have a mobile phone in their pockets...
