Pros and cons of BlindSide app for iPhone and iPad

BlindSide app good for

A wonderful game, reealistic, with more than I hoped of angst, adrenaline... The sounds, the atmosphere, the stereo, make the scenes appear so real, this game is an excellent realisation. What a pity its so quickly ended ! I could play hours and hours !
Amazing atmosphere and the birth of a new gaming genre. This is a great game.
Great idea and play experience. Looking forward to next eposode. A

Some bad moments

With IOS5.1 on iphone4 game doesnt run very well. I cant resume game, The application crashes and returns home. A the beginning of game, when monster comes, the application crashes too. I hope you will change it... Id like to play it one day! Thank you for your nice working!
Cant get past the title screen, Im using iPhone 5 and have reinstalled without success. I will revise rating upon improvement
Im on on a 4S with iOS 6.1.1 and I cant get past the start new game button, it freezes and exits to iOS home. Unfortunate nice premise but Ive no idea if the game is any good - please fix and I will re-review.
Great audio game! It works well for sighted and VoiceOver users equally well. I am definitely looking forward to future games from this developer.
This game was incredibly disturbing for me. It doesnt have any vidual gore or anything else associated with horror games, but it was scary enough for me to have to stop playing as soon as I encountered the first monster. If you are easily scared or startled, this game is not for you.
Get a good set of comfortable headphones, sit in a office chair and close your eyes.... Great game, I can wait to explore more
