- Longer supported Android and IOS versions of the game also include[3][4] Inuktitut[5], Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Russian translations. The PC version uses Windows-1252 code page, therefore porting these translations to PC would either require replacing already used characters in the font with targeted ones (still won't work for Japanese and Chinese due to enormous amount of characters) or rewriting the code, which the developers decided not to do.[6]
