User Reviews

Reviews praise the original story, engaging puzzles, and helpful hints, with strong perceived value. However, recurring mobile UI bugs and pay-to-finish monetization hinder enjoyment, often blocking progression. Players cite overlapping inventory/back buttons, landscape issues, and crashes as top complaints, alongside confusion over the free-to-play messaging. Overall, the concept is solid and appealing, but the iOS experience is marred by persistent technical issues.

Pros

Original, engaging story that stands out from other games.
Engaging, varied puzzles with the option to solve or skip; challenging but rewarding.
Positive hints system that explains why a wrong item doesn't work.
Strong value and enjoyment for the price; content-rich.
Ongoing updates/maintenance and overall enjoyable experience.

Cons

Inventory and UI issues on mobile—back button overlapping, inventory overlapping with bottom, and inventory sometimes disappearing or not opening.
Navigation difficulties on phones and landscape mode incompatibilities; playing on iPhone is frustrating.
Monetization concerns: pay-to-finish after limited access and misleading 'free' labeling.
Progress blockers and bugs that prevent finishing: missing items, wrong hints, or game not opening.
Display glitches and stability problems: screen glitches, mislabels, or crashes.

I was really liking the game until just before I got to the mansion. Every time I clicked something, my inventory minimizes and makes it really difficult to use any item.

Please for the love of all things good…fix the darn problem with the inventory and back buttons being on top of each other. The setup is so good and what I did play I loved the theme of, but even though I paid for the game I will never finish it or buy another from you unless this update. I do not want to go back and forth 50 times every time I open my inventory. I don’t know if it’s any better on iPad but it’s horrific on my iPhone. Please. Please. Please patch it. I want to know how this ends

I’m barely through the game and the inventory list just disappeared. I’ve turned it off and back on and cleared my cache multiple times just to have the same glitch. Please fix this.
