★★★★★ "Awesome but short. This game is awesome. Challenging and fun but only 40 something levels. My 5 year old finished it in a day. Would rate 5 stars if they would add more levels. But it hasn’t been updated in almost a year. What a waste. Download a free puzzle …" - Poppinmama

Sound and music won’t turn off
Game is fun at first but gets boring soon.
NOTE: every time you open the game you have to turn off the music and/or sound AGAIN. Why can’t the game save this very simple and basic setting?

I want to like it... but it’s tedious
The game is cute, but gameplay is frustrating.
If you enjoy puzzle or strategy games, then look elsewhere. Levels are solved using arbitrary moves that happen to give surprising, unexpected outcomes. This is maddening because the solutions are arbitrary and gameplay is tedious, not fun.
However, if you enjoy games where you sit back and try all 2^n possible combinations until you stumble upon a solution, then you might love this.
I loved Love You To Bits (another game by this author), which also uses an “arbitrary exploration” game mechanic, because it has rich storylines and endearing characters. By contrast, Bring You Home is a stripped down variation that becomes mechanical rather than endearing.

Game breaking bug
The game was a lot of fun, but I got to level 43 and it won’t allow me to complete the stage with the correct sequence. I just mash the Play button and nothing happens.
Fun up until that point. Going to need a patch or update to make it playable past that point.

Would have been great if not for the ending
This game was awesome just like LoveYouToBits, it was fun and challenging gameplay, but as soon as I got to the end it immediately went to one star. I’m not gonna lie I cried! J.k but I wanted to. Disappointed!!!!!!
Stage 43 is broken
Guys, please, fix stage 43.
Last click on button to finish stage do nothing.

Awesome but short
This game is awesome. Challenging and fun but only 40 something levels. My 5 year old finished it in a day. Would rate 5 stars if they would add more levels. But it hasn’t been updated in almost a year. What a waste. Download a free puzzle game. At least you’ll be able to play it for more then a day.
Very cute and very fun and very short
I rarely buy games, but decided to splurge on this one because it sounded fun and different. Which it is! But I also finished it in a day as there are 47 levels. There are games I have played for years that have cost me nothing. Which isn’t to say that everything should be free, but the value just isn’t here.
Ending is too sad
When you get to level 47 which is the level where you get too the pet .you have to pick who the pet goes to his mom ,or his owner from the beginning .if he goes to his mom which is level 48b ,he walks back into the portal sadly and goes home. Then after that, when he is home with no pet ,he throws the ball out the window and a cute pet fox gets it.to me this one is sadder then the other ending. Though this ending made me cry the other ending is when the pet goes to his owner from the beginning, they go to bed. But in the middle of the night he puts his green hat on his pet and gives it to his mom.to me that is still sad . But why is the game title called bring you home? So PLEASE add more levels to replace that sad part?! If you did not have that sad part, I would have given this 1,000 stars if I could. Written by Max , 7 y.o. , who played all levels.
