This is 5. high severity bug

What is high severity bug?

• When tilting the smartphone while playing, the game frequently gets stuck in landscape mode, which obscures some surrounding text. There is a workaround: if you pause and resume the game, the app will switch back to portrait orientation.
• This problem has a high severity but only with the assumption that it is a well-known franchise with an official licence.
• It would probably be tolerable if this was an independent game of some sort or a less expensive, less well-known mobile game.
• If a bug affects the user interface (UI) or the game's engine or dynamics, it should never be left in.
• If it was a game designed to make money, it leaves a bad taste in the mouth.
• It would be completely acceptable if it were a collision bug or a graphic bug involving two models overlapping.
