literally would not open. would crash and close each time.
Was able to download and play on my google Pixel 7. Just got the Google Pixel 9 and after downloading the app it just won't open. I click on the icon to open and nothing happens. Have done tons of app troubleshooting options I've found online but no success.
Honestly, i am disappointed. The puzzle too mainstream at this point and never related to the story at when the puzzle appear.
Nothing to do with the game content. I only gave 1 star cos the game crashed on my mobile every time after the system taught player how to move around. I just can't get it working on my mobile.
Boring. unskippable drivel. I just wanted to play the game not spend 10 minutes watching them have a very boring conversation.
Could not enter D, couldn't solve the puzzle :(
Can't enter a "/" character for a fraction answer on mobile. It only shows me number keys or - and ,
After last update there is bug with UI. Button's don't always register input. It's crucial bug
Terrible
Can't play the game. Tells me I can't use name.
Boring
Looks very very outdated...
When you touch the input answer field incorrectly it sometimes gets pushed up out of view and then you can't touch anything anymore and the game won't let you use the back key so you're forced to close it entirely and restart it. Frustrating considering this app is rather expensive. Please fix this.
What a waste of money for an overated game
The landscape mode is only for one landscape direction making it unplayable if your charging cable comes out to the left.
Very bad game
I loved this game when it first came out on the DS so I was looking forward to some nostalgia... It was pricey for a mobile game at £10 but I thought it would be worth it. Nope. Like other reviewers I couldn't get past the enter my name screen. Instant refund tho, thanks Google. Shame on the developers letting such an obvious glitch stay in.
Poor Can't even enter my name, so I have purchased a game I can't play
Spent €11 on this game. As soon as I get to the introductory screen, it asked me to input my name but no keyboard appeared. I now can't play the game. Really poor.
Couldn't even start the game as there was no keyboard for me to enter my name.
Keyboard doesn't work. Game unplayable
Doesn't work! Refund me my tenner please! Was so excited to play this game but can't even start due to not being able to type my name!
some of the puzzles are poorly explained so that there are multiple answers, it is a bit frustrating to follow the rules of the puzzle as described but still get it incorrect. Also, the puzzles feel a bit shoved in, they aren't really relevant to the story. it isn't as good as some of the escape games that have more of a plot and puzzles that seem more logical to the story and progression through the game.
The puzzles have no connection whatsoever to the story and most are variations of well known puzzles.
There are some really poor wording with this puzzle
Well designed and constructed game. Sadly, too much waffling in between puzzles. I got bored having to wade through a load of pages before finally getting to another puzzle. Time was passing me by as matters were dragged out to death.
Timewasting interface. Puzzles designed for stylus. The 3rd puzzle literally states that it can't be solved by logic and requires random guessing - that's not a puzzle! Uninstalled.
