"Whimsical, magical, and enchanting" –– Touch Arcade, 5/5
Kiwanuka is an action-puzzle game with an entirely new game-mechanic designed uniquely for touch screen. Guide the tiny citizens, instruct them to build towers, knock the towers over to grab ledges, then use them as bridges to reach the exit. Success requires careful thought and perfect timing.

Pros and cons of Kiwanuka app for iPhone and iPad
Kiwanuka app good for
Games are media, and like so this game uses its essence to transmit a beautiful and empowering message. Resist all oppression. Beautiful game, beautiful story telling.
This game is so much fun! Its strategic and challenging and the perfect distraction for your long commute. The music and graphics and incredible too!
this puzzle game does not only have a great atmosphere but the puzzles are nice and simple but get harder as you progress but theres nothing so far that will be to hard and make you just quit that is my problem with puzzle games so if your like me its great
The concept of the game is really cool, a nice twist on Lemmings-style games. Not a lot of depth to the puzzles or art though, it gets pretty repetitive after a while.
I love everything about this game, the music, the graphics, the gameplay! Some reviews has compared this to Lemmings or Spirits, but if youre like me and hate those types of game, rest assured because your people will not move unless you tell them to.
Just the right length without overstaying its welcome.
Fantastic gameplay, sharp sounds and graphics. Highly recommend :)
Some bad moments
内容よりスタイルしかない。うんざりまで繰り返しゲームプレー、知力のない『パズル』、同様に面白さもない。
本当に空しいゲーム。まったく金の無駄でした。
All style, no substance. Brainless "puzzles", repetitive gameplay, no story, no fun. An empty game. waste of money & time, dont bother.
I dont like buying apps. But the art style of this game had drawn my interest so I took a chance and bought it .
The story of the game is pretty basic, rescue the people but the way you go about it is very unique. The concept of the same is fairly simple you have staff that you use to extend this lightning like energy to stack people on top of each other (like the monkeys in a barrel)in order to solve a puzzle to rescue other people that I assume are called Kiwanuka.
There are 30 levels exactly varying in complexity it is not impossible but will have you scratching you head for a few days if I actually concentrated in this game I would finish it in about a week (but I have life so hat didnt happen), the difficulty of this game is not the as extreme as I thought it would be, I would say it more based on skills of placement and then timing.
But overall it a good quick game to play with nice are and smooth graphics. I did not encounter any bugs, only learning how to maneuver the stacking feature. Worth the by and good pass time.
MORE LEVES PLEASE!!!
Like many I was drawn in by the art style. Mistake. It actually looks too garish while playing. I am really giving low marks due to rubbish game play. Too easy with no brain power required. Playing the first 10 levels out of 30 felt perfunctory and a chore. Dont buy! Refund please! Go play lemmings instead
Everything from gameplay to design and even the soundtrack, its a beautiful game all around. Its true that the game is quite short and easy at times. But its overall worth it!
I am giving this game four stars primarily for the style and personality forged in the design. As a more seasoned iOS gamer, I found the 20 minute playthrough a bit disappointing. However, Im sure that many younger players new to iOS (or gaming in general) will find it both challenging and fun.
The music is on point.
Theres really no good reason not to sync game saves with iCloud. Achievements are saved, but not game data. Other games use this feature.
