Innovative game, but annoying to control.

Liked the concept and the puzzles were good - though sometimes there seems to be some luck involved in successfully solving the level? It was pretty difficult to see which character was selected - maybe it could be made more obvious and the background changed to make the characters "pop" more? Or maybe we could select the freddies directly? Also, just my personal preference, but I think I'd like the pace of gameplay a little slower, so I could plan my moves better ^_^ Cheers!

Fun, controllable, enjoyable.

Pretty short though...I was just getting into it. I'd love to play more levels!

I'm not quite sure what's going on here. Not going to review since I likely don't get it.

Quite short, but nice concept. Took a few levels before I recognized the lemmings influence :-)
These thingies are sometimes really difficult to control when bouncing against each other.

Not a bad game though there was quite a lot of luck involved on the second level which I tend to think isn't a good thing in puzzle games.

I agree with CherryNukaCola that it would be quite nice to be able to select the freddies directly with the mouse, also it would be good if the selection box was a bit more obvious.

Good game, i like the mechanic. Downside for me was that I wasn't very good at it! Good game though

Haha! I Loved it! The sound effects are great! The idea is great! Everything is great! Except for the lack of levels. On the second level (the one with the yellow guy) something glitched out and the giant green enemy thing jumped up to the second level and started freaking out jumping at like 10x the speed; scary stuff.

Wasn't able to get this game to start, either by double-clicking the .jar or the .bat. I'm using Windows 7 home, haven't had any trouble with other java games so I'm not sure what's wrong! So I won't rate this game.

I do like the idea of a game taking place in a bookshelf, though!

Not really that difficult, but fun nonetheless :)

Got to the the title screen, but after the first level loaded I couldn't select anything.
