Lost In The Depths

I had a good bit of trouble playing on my iPad. Game was too unresponsive and even with many clicks I still missed things. I had to watch a walkthrough to learn what I was missing. There were also other things that could be improved - I agree with the reviewer who complained that inventory items weren’t identified. I had the same problem. Was that a handle or an electrical wire, and what are those red things? Burning coals? Hints weren’t very helpful. They told me to use items I hadn’t found yet. In the end I played on my MacBook and that worked much better. The game was way more responsive and enjoyable. Four stars for fun artwork, some good puzzles, and a generous length. I like this dev’s games but wish they were finessed a bit more.

I love this game. It’s well worth the $1.99 to get rid of ads. It’s just the right amount challenging. Without a camera or a map, you may need paper and pen - which is old fashioned fun!

I really do! I love this TYPE of game. “..Depths” just isn’t a great example. I love puzzles- that are truly sensical & intuitive. Many of the puzzles here are trial & error (meh); others are ciphers that don’t translate reliably (boo). But what truly dragged the rating sooo low is the glitch that keeps me from progressing fully & finishing the game: Perhaps i entered the room (small, partially opened door) with the cogwheels puzzle too early..? Or started placing the 5 or 6 tokens (into the big bluish wall) before i had everything i needed..? But i’ve triggered some glitch.. Now when i try to enter again, i only receive a zoomed-in image [of said room’s exit] with no minimize option; I can no longer access any of the room’s puzzles & have effectively ended my game.
