Game industry reviews:
MMGN.com "This week we have an impressive application from Squz called Your World. The premise is simple; simply select countries from the bottom bar and place them on a rotating 3D scale of the Earth. Slick presentation and an addictive nature makes Your World a fun puzzle and you might even learn a thing or two."

¹ Due to technical limitations, sharing with friends unlocks Your World on a single device only. Deleting Your World will also lose this setting. You can, however, share again to unlock the game on a different device or after a reinstall. While we love it when you share, we know you don't want to annoy all your friends by doing so repeatedly, so we are working to make this feature transferrable to your other devices and more permanent. Meanwhile, here's a little secret: If you start the sharing process, but cancel instead of submitting, it will still unlock the free upgrade. We're trusting that if you really like the app, you'll want to share it with your friends anyway (just not over and over again).
² Feature list includes both free and in app-purchase activated features.
