However, it does not feature native iPad or Retina support (though the game can be forced to render at the Retina resolution using the jailbreak tweak Retinasizer). For proper performance, an iPod touch 2G or better is recommended; an A5 device (iPhone 4S, iPod touch 5G, iPad 2) reaches a solid 60FPS, even at the upscaled resolution. | ||
Due to being a 32-bit app, the game is not compatible with iOS versions above iOS 11. | |||
