This game was quite short and easy, but it was absolutely worth 99 cents. I thought it was well made: the graphics were good, the music was actually kinda enjoyable and not monotonous (didn’t play long enough for that 😁), the 3D environment was smooth and easily navigable, the story was shallow but darkly “cute” with a little twist at the end, and many puzzles required investigating additional rooms to solve previous ones. Was it challenging? Except for a couple of momentary head-scratchers, not really, but after some of the brain-kickers I’ve played recently, I giggled with delight through much of the game due partly to its stark simplicity and partly to some of the amusingly nonsensical solutions. I have another escaper from this dev that’s supposed to be more difficult, so if it’s as well made as this one, I’m really looking forward to it.
The game is only 99 cents with no in-app purchases. I really don't understand the gripes some people have with the game being too easy - it was only 99 cents! Beautiful graphics, excellent mood-fitting music, and solvable puzzles that aren't TOO challenging... I really enjoyed this! Yes, it was short - but it was only a buck! I definitely got my money's worth and will try more of their games.
Very happy to see a new game in the Cryptic series from Jacob Medina and 3D Methods! Simple interface, makes you think but is not difficult or frustrating. Very nice point and click adventure, love the medieval theme! Length is short but comparable to price, and I do appreciate that, yet would pay more for a longer game. No glitches, clear graphics, clever puzzles, casual gameplay. A bit of constructive criticism here...the one and only issue I had was a bit of dizzying due to the camera movement in this one, very fast zooming in and away from the different areas. Really hope to see more games from this dev (minus the camera motion)!
