I have been a big fan of SnowCraft ever since it was released as an online Christmas card by Nicholson NY. The app version is a great replication of the original, and appears to improve upon it in some ways such as the skill and motion of the "green kids", and improved scoring. The throwing and reload performance for me is the same as the original. The only issue I ran into was that on the iPad, in 2x mode, the kids sometimes dont always move as expected, or "slip" from under my finger. This may be operator error, or a bug in 2x mode, I havent figured it out, but it is minor and doesnt detract from play.
I am absolutely delighted to have this long time favorite on our new devices, and would recommend it to anyone. Thanks!
