User Reviews

Players praise the game's story, characters, visuals, and addictive match‑3 gameplay with minimal intrusive ads. Recurrent complaints are limited/new content and updates, frustrating difficulty spikes and tight move limits that push purchases, and slow story progression. Overall well-liked but many want more levels and fairer late-game balancing.

Pros

Engaging murder-mystery story and likable characters
Attractive graphics and pleasant music/visuals
Fun, addictive match-3 gameplay with tactical depth
Minimal/infrequent ads with optional ad rewards

Cons

Lack of updates/new cases — players report no new levels or content
Sudden difficulty spikes and very tight move limits on advanced levels
Perceived paywall: heavy reliance on boosters or purchases to clear hard levels
Slow story progression — story advances too slowly for some players

can't believe this is the same studio for angry birds 2.. also, it's a candy crush thing. you need to ring the doorbell? level. get a key? level. talk to someone? level. go upstairs? level. you get the idea. very repetitive gameplay loop without much difficulty ramping.
