Ads for coins
Fun game, as long as you don’t get stumped. I like how challenging the game is, and I’m too cheap to pay for anything in a game app…so I watch ads to get the free coins. However, you can watch the ad and wait 5+ minutes to be able to exit the add and it never comes. So I’m watching ads over and over for nothing. So frustrating. This would be a great app if it didn’t do that
Not happy
It’s nearly impossible to get through the mazes and puzzles without a cheat system to guide you.
3 Hours and 45 Minutes wait to recharge enough to play each level!!!!
Hints are expensive (125 coins each hint and you earn 50 for each level you pass) and you gain 1 energy every 15 minutes and need 15 energy to play one game. Classic micro transactions trash. Good luck waiting!
Update: I’m sure you could keep it being free with a reduction in waiting time.

Disappointed
I got to the guest bedroom. I needed to solve last puzzle to get the key. Game just quit
This game took money from me
This game took money from my debit card and I asked them for it back they told me to contact apple which I did and apple declined my refund be careful of this game
Pay to play
You have to pay for energy it refills really slow
Scam
You can’t finish level 3 without paying point blank period. I’ve entered multiple solutions and the game won’t unlock the next step.
VPN restrictions
App doesn’t work with VPNs. Hard pass.
Not playable
Playing on a phone is impossible. You need a microscope to see some of the clues, the fuse box clue is ridiculously small even with a magnifying glass.
MUST p2p or watch extremely long ads to play
I thought this game was above par because it’s not easy. That said, I’m a whiz at these and when I arrived at a really difficult spot, I requested a clue. It cost 150 coins. A few rooms later, I needed another clue only to find I either had to pay to play or watch an ad. After watching 2minutes of ads, I received 20 coins. I needed 80 more, i.e. watch 10minutes worth of ads. I closed the game. It’s been weeks and today I decided to try again only to find the price for the same hint is now 300 coins!! I’m NOT paying and it is not fun enough to watch an hour of ads for a small clue that may or may not get you through the room. Good luck to these developers; I’m deleting permanently. Good riddance!!
Too vague
This could be fun, but every level you kinda had to go to YouTube to get guidance. You use their hints really didn’t help. Then I had a few that the app just didn’t work and you just got stuck. There’s gotta be a better one out there.
Serious?!
Most of the doors or drawers you’re supposed to open won’t until you purchase hint after hint. Same problem with The items you’re supposed to gather! Even when you can SEE something that you just KNOW you’re supposed to get or pick up, you tap and tap, but you purchase 3 hints and then it “gives” it to you!! DON’T SPEND YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON THIS APP!!!
Levels vs Walkthroughs = No Match
I was having fun at first even on the parts where I got stuck for days and when I finally gave in to using hints and watching walkthroughs I realized that the answers to the puzzles are not consistent. I did the correct pattern in the fashion store for the little pillow striped puzzle but it just won’t open up or solve. It’s like with every new update y’all are changing the answers but not the puzzle. It’s quite annoying and unfair. And just to skip the level all together and go on to the next it’s 1000 coins when each level only gives you 50 coins per level, and only gives chances to increase piggy bank winnings with ads. Why should I have to pay you for coins I won after completing a level? This game is a scam. AE Mysteries by Haiku is way better.
Too expensive to play
You get very little energy to spend on next rooms… would be great game but… not enough rooms to explore to get addicted to
Interesting, but lots of Problems
I liked the game at first; it was challenging but not too hard. I liked the variety of puzzles. However, the puzzles got more bizarre with many things not making sense. Collecting things that don’t appear in the backpack. Collecting other items that are never used (red herrings?). Clues being so vague as to not be helpful at all (“Are you good with numbers?”)
I am now convinced the errors are intentional so you have to watch ads or pay for more hints.

It's ok
More frustrating then it is fun. "Hints" aren't hints. You have to buy money to actually have it. Not much is earned for playing daily. Deleting-not worth my storage...
Stuck have to give up
Love the game but I have been stuck on a dinosaur pic scrabble for days and there is no option so I have to give up bummer I really like the game but there is no way to move on .
Fun but scam
This game is super fun but some of the clues are just to take your money. They will say the same thing multiple time and never help. Its a waste of money
Puzzle doesn’t remember
This puzzle is ok but I really hate that that it doesn’t keep what you have already solved on a puzzle. Basically if you only solved a puzzle half way (like the boat puzzle) it won’t remember what you solved now you have to resolve the puzzle again!!!! I’m getting to the point where I am going to Delton off of my phone!
Stuck because of a glitch.
I love the game but I’m currently stuck on level 5 of the dance club mystery. I even used coins for hints because I couldn’t figure out what I missing. The hint said that the pillow revealed a box, and suggested finding a way to open it but I can’t get the pillow to move to reveal said box. And since that’s where the next clue will come from, I can’t do anything. I’m just stuck. I guess I’ll delete the app because I’m just wasting coins some of which I even paid for.
Stupid time limit
I was so enjoying this game and had spent some money on it in the first two series. Then I got to the haunted one, and there is a stupid time limit. What was a relaxing, fun game became a pressure field nightmare. Nope. Uninstalling and done. Get rid of the time limit and I’ll spend money again.
heavy ai use
i don’t really like ai generated art so this is definitely a biased review but i found the heavy ai use very offputting. didn’t stick with the game long enough for more of a review
Good game but very expensive
The game itself is 4 or 5 stars, but you will need more hints as you progress through levels, unless you have a genius IQ
The coin purchases are expensive and the rewards for completing a level are minimal. I’ve asked them several times to either increase rewards or lower the coin purchase prices, but they are not willing to do so, so I’m cutting my losses and uninstalling the game

Could be better
Would be a really fun game if some of the puzzles weren’t so difficult. You can’t even use the hints because they cost so much and you barely get any money. God forbid you’re stuck on a level you have to pay for a hint 3 TIMES before it just solves it which ends up costing you about 500 coins and you get a whole whopping 50 coins per level. Just another game that wants you to spend spend spend.
