I have never given a review but felt that this is the one time I would like to give one.
Right from the start, I thought this was a great game with lots of things to do and many items to find.
I a trying to play the updated version of Apex but stopped playing when I was only in Bloom City, and am now waiting for another update, which is playable.
1) You get more items than are necessary. I already have 3 maps (all the same) and am only in Bloom City.
2) Nothing seem to make sense because even though you haven't talked to someone about a specific item, you still get what you should only get if you have talked about it.
3) There are so many spelling mistakes, it just is no fun reading the conversations.
4) When I go to the weapon shop in Bloom City and want to sell something, you actually get another axe... Very confusing.
5) I also find it frustrating that very often, the game freezes because I didn't use the exact path that I should have, to go to the next page, and then have to restart my computer because the game doesn't shut down...

All in all, this looks like a really great game but it's really not playable at the present stage.
