OK, a nice, short article. I'll review this one as soon as I'm done reviewing Cancer (song). λ NegativeMP1 01:09, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Woah! Thank you! my prayers have been answered TWOrantula^TM (enter the web) 04:08, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Quick note: I had a few doubts before I nominated this article because I felt it was incomplete and missing important information (particularly in the gameplay section). TWOrantula^TM (enter the web) 05:58, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can definitely see that viewpoint, but at the same time there's plenty of cases of mobile games like this having very little to say about gameplay, limited development information, and few critic reviews. As long as it addresses the subjects key points with enough detail, is comprehensible, and doesn't violate any wiki rules, I personally think it's fine. This article would definitely fall apart at a place like FAC, though. λ NegativeMP1 08:15, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, one more thing: If you plan on responding this week, I will (very likely) not be available; I have finals, and I'd like to ensure I do well. :) TWOrantula^TM (enter the web) 01:54, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well I'm sure that worked out for you anyways because I completely forgot that I took up this GAN, lmao. Sorry. I'll get it done before too long. λ NegativeMP1 23:00, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@NegativeMP1: You there, buddy? (No need to rush.) TWOrantula^TM (enter the web) 17:25, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I just keep forgetting that I took up this review. I'll do it right now while it's on my mind. λ NegativeMP1 18:55, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@NegativeMP1: Done! TWOrantula^TM (enter the web) 19:53, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, looks good. I'll be passing this, good job. And Happy Holidays to you as well.

Review

Shouldn't it be explained what championship mode is?
- Couldn't find a source for that. The 148Apps and TouchArcade reviews mention what it is, but they don't describe it.
I think the developer should be verified in the article prose even if it uses a primary source.
- Sure. Added source.
"universally praised" I wouldn't use "universally" when only two critic reviews are cited.
- Removed.
Is the "power shot" a game mechanic? If so, shouldn't it be explained in gameplay?
- If you mean the super shot, then yes. Ummm... not sure if adding a word counts as an explanation; you'll have to be a bit more specific.
The only two images are a gameplay screenshot and the app icon, which are obviously justified.
- Yep. :P
Spotchecked certain uses of references 3 and 17, both of which verify the content they are cited to.
- Awesome!

I now feel bad because I took 13 days to start a review that took fifteen minutes, and most of that was spent checking the sources. And even though the article may seem incomplete, if the references I've checked are anything to go by, I think this article explains what can be explained without unnecessary wording or details. Minus the parts I pointed out, of course. I'll put this on hold for now. λ NegativeMP1 19:09, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, no worries. Glad you remembered (and Happy Holidays)! TWOrantula^TM (enter the web) 19:53, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
