Pros and cons of Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons app for iPhone and iPad

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons app good for

Is a verry verry nice game.. Nice story but it sad in the ending i hope there will be a continuation for this . Like Fathers: a tale of Fathers . This time father and son. Thanks again i buy it 4.99€ and i play just today . And i finish it already :) thanks . More powers
The storyline deserves almost a movie, the music and the ambient are simply great. But the controls are painful, and the 3D graphics basic. Buy it, it is worth it.
I love PS4 version of this game, so I brought IOS ver. It can run ok on my ip6, but when I try to launch it on my iPad, it just cant run, keep black screen. Hope can fix that.
Been waiting to play this for a long time and was absolutely delighted when I realized how fluid the game plays despite the new controls. Highly recommend.
^^^ at certain times my iPhone 5s did get a little laggy but all I had to do was stop moving for 3 seconds and everything was good for a few hours.
Im running this on an iPad Air 2 and the game looks fantastic and plays smoothly. There are no crashes or glitches on this device. Interesting puzzles and nice gameplay. Highly recommended.

Some bad moments

I purchased this app due to the news coverage. However, the game does not start on my iPad mini (iOS9), despite some bugfixes and even not with the latest version installed. I emailed support for help but did not get a reply at all. Feels like rip off, to be honest, they charge 6€ for a in my opinion uselss piece of buggy software, and then do not even bother trying to help. Can I get my money back?
I was hoping for a reworked game with touch controls or interactions but no two massive virtual joysticks which take up a good amount of space on the screen... Too bad... I would stick to the console or PC version with a real joystick. Frame rate drops on iPhone 5s so lots of slow downs.
Sadly the controls are done with a virtual joystick which really breaks the immersion... Great game but I think most people will be better off playing this on a PC or console. Real shame...
Dont waste your money. The game will not even start - it shows the developers and then display "game best played with headphones" and then just a blue screen. Complete waste of money and the developers do not support the game even though the reviewed are of the same complaint. You have been warned...do not buy.
Game crashes before it starts. Lost 5 bucks and I want it back NOW!!!
Like many others this game will not start. Thought recent patch would solve the problem. But it didnt.
