Just draws little x's

I was expecting something that resembled the feel of using the magnetic wand to push and pull the little iron shavings around. This is far from that childhood memory. It just draws little x's wherever you drag your finger. Pretty weak. They could of used the accelerometer to mimic the way the real iron shavings used to slide around if you moved the board from horizontal. I was expecting a pile of digital shavings laying on the bottom and you'd have to move them up to position them. Seems like someone could of programmed that pretty easily. Come on Paze! Up the ante and get some realism in there. You already have my money, might as well make it worth something.

People!!!

Ok I am about to buy this and it looks good so I think I am but for all the peple who don't know how to take screenshots here ya go.... 1) Click down on the home and power buttons at the same time, your screen will flash white. 2) Go to your pictures and it will be in your saved pictures file.

Fun but not quite like the original

As I recall on the original, you dragged metal filings onto the picture and piled them up. You could also drag them away or move them around.This would be better if you could drag from the edge to pick up some filings and drop them where you wanted them. Being able to drag clumps of filings around (back to the edge would remove them) would allow you to fix mistakes and give better control than just drawing on filings with your finger.To all those griping about the price-Come on! It's 99 cents? What do you expect for a buck?

One of the best ideas on the App Store!

Man, I loved this toy as a kid! I think I was 5 years old the first time I saw one, it was one of the best toys my parents ever got me probably. I think this is even better now, plus I can add my own pics? No reason not to download this app!!! Very slick design, easy to use, and you get both versions plus an awesome, and funny feature "my pics"! So far with all the apps, this is the best $1.99 I've spent so far. Plus this company did a really awesome list program called "My List" which one of the best out there with the same price point.I highly recommend it as well. Paze, I like what I see so far, keep up the awesome work!!!!!

Don't be fooled by its cuteness......it's actually not great.

This was a great and fun idea for a program, but it's actually a terrible representation of this classic children's toy. First of all, the original had a bunch of magnetic powder at the bottom of the screen that you could drag from. This doesn't allow you to drag anything from the bottom of the screen. In fact, it doesn't allow you to drag anything! Dragging magnetic powder is so crucial to enjoying it because what if you mess up? What if you stick some dust in the wrong place? Well, you could drag it elsewhere. In this program, you can't drag away a mistake. You're STUCK WITH IT! Plus, the dust doesn't look right. It's a bunch of asterisks. And it makes it look like a bunch of ants are crawling on the guy. And the more you spat on, the worse it looks. No, no, no, the graphics should have been much better than this. Hopefully, they'll update it.

Awesome!

It reminds me so much of the one I used ton have as a kid! Works so well, and is really fun! I recommend it to anyone who wants to have a moment back into childhood, for older children or young adults, to seniors (who know how to use iPads)! Worth every penny!

Great!

By reading some of these reviews, you wonder what game people thought they were getting. This is something simple. Just like the cardboard- backed original was..... They captured the images and the frustratingly hard way it was to move around the metal filelings... It brought me back to my childhood and did everything it said it would.

Needs work. But ok

Needs and undo button and able to take pics from camera.

Perfect...Kids Love It!!!

You can save the photos using the iPhone "screen capture." Just press and hold the sleep/wake button. Then press and release the "home" button. Your screen should flash white. Once this happens you will find your cool faces in your photos under "camera roll."

Find

Just realized all you have to do to save your work is take a screenshot...to do this, all you have to do is hit the homebutton and the sleep/wake button at the same time, then your picture will be saved in your photos (not sure if it works with iPod touch)
