• Keep There are notable sources for this title. Android Police and Pocket Gamers seems to provide commentary and criticism:

This game was also featured in Android Play store in the past and has a medium scale user base with favorable reviews. I think this game also meets WP:GNG Jimqode (talk) 12:36, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

• Keep Clearly notable and referred by a number of third party sources. OccultZone (Talk) 12:44, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
• Weak keep. Not as clear-cut as those sources make it out to be. Joystiq and Pocket Gamer are good, and reliable at WP:VG/RS. The TechCrunch is something written by the developer (and as such would be a self-published source that doesn't count towards notability). The Adobe site is okay. And I really don't know about the rest of those Android sites. I think with the three dedicated articles that a fully bodied WP article can be hobbled together, but it is telling when the Metacritic page for a 2012 game has no listed reviews. czar ♔ 12:55, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
