I only write reviews of the games that meet my criteria of fun, logical, and challenging. This games was all that including a cute storyline. If I got to a point I couldn’t go further, I shut it down and came back to it where I could proceed with having solved a puzzle. There wasn’t a need for a help system as all made sense, but for those in a hurry, I suspect it was appreciated. I truly don’t think it’s right for reviewers to give low marks to a game just because they didn’t understand it. Just don’t leave a review and go on to a game you like. For my money this one was for me!
I will say at the onset I thought this would be on the easy side (I’ve probably played every escape game in the App Store). Turns out many of the puzzles were challenging. As far as length - I felt like it was long— it took me several hours over the course of a few days to complete as I didn’t use any hints. The game mechanics and navigation were solid, graphics clean, retro and well done. The environment was large with some surprises. I definitely felt like it was an accomplishment to finish. I def recommend this!
So much fun! Lots of great puzzles, some easier and some quite challenging, and it’s a good length. There are hints but they weren’t always helpful and so I was glad for online walkthroughs. It was a bit buggy in places but nothing that got in the way of playing and finishing. However, even with these little criticisms, it was such a good time that it deserves five stars. Totally worth the money. Like another reviewer, I had occasion to email the dev and got a prompt reply. Hooray for responsive devs! Thank you dev! Hope there’s a sequel!
