It is sounding more and more like an issue with the port or 2.0.1 Patch. Currently trying to fix it. Some people use the App Joiplay to make it work. But that is its own thing
I was playing with it a bit earlier, and i turned off battery save, and decreased the text size. Did it at the same time, so I do not know which was the fix, but it is working now. This is one of my favorite games, got excited when I saw the update, but my saves got corrupted on my SD card, so had to restart the game. Looking forward to playing it through again.
