Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've played this game for years. Recently it is forcing me to update by presenting a screen with nothing but an update button on it. No exit to return to the game without updating. When accepting the update it takes me to the app store, no way to update and when clicking the open button to launch the game, nothing happens. I emailed the programmer and got the canned non-response. Pretty much guarantees this programmer will get no more money from me.
