What real reviews say
★★★★★ Truly the most addicting iOS game ever I’ve been playing this game for longer than I care to admit and I still keep coming back to it. I’ve cleared every map there is (save for a few I’ve deemed impossible) and would do it again in a heartbeat. I wish more people found out about the majesty that is Slay.
★★★★★ Love it I loved this game when I was a Child, I still do.
★★★★★ My old obsession Been playing this for decades, across many platforms. This is very comfortable but engaging board gamey game.
