  • Liked it

    Especially the short skip times. The story was a little convoluted at times and i had to use the hint to see what i need to be doing but still a very nice game
  • Good game

    I liked this game. I love the little tree guy. It is a fun n game. It just has several things that don’t make sense to me. The story line is difficult to understand until the end. I guess they meant it to be that way. The main reason J gav it a 4 star is just some of the things you put together are randomly m and not logical. It is still a fun game.
  • Meh

    Only 25 scenes in the main game, maybe 5 in the bonus, so a fairly short game overall. Puzzles were varied, with some arcade style as well. Story could have been better, they never explain why the guy was murdered in the house and where the curse came from, as if they started to take the story in one direction, then changed their mind and went another. Also why would you, the detective, be the missing ingredient in the ritual? Hops were interactive, list, and silhouette. I usually like this developer, but this one felt rushed to production and suffered for it. 3.5 stars rounded down to 3 because it’s just not a 4 star game to me.
  • Great game!

    This is such a well-designed game. The storyline was interesting and it has just the right level of clues and puzzles. The artwork (backgrounds, characters, etc) is also great.
  • Fun if you can finish it, I assume...

    Fun game with some pretty original puzzles, but there’s a glitch on literally the last task of the main game that can prevent you from finishing and the only remedy is starting over. Not okay.
  • Where’s the Lever??

    I really enjoyed this game....until I didn’t. I got almost to the end of the regular game & for some reason wasn’t able to get the lever. Hint button was no help. Map showed no locations where there was anything to be done. The walkthrough was no help either, because it gave you no clue on where the lever was supposed to come from. So, I don’t finish the game or get access to the bonus game. What a waste of time & money....
  • Stuck in bonus game

    Okay game but now stuck in bonus game with nothing to do. I have half a staff, a rag and half a crown. Map shows nowhere to do anything and hints says nothing to do here in every room. This getting stuck in these games seems to be happening more and more. A little more time needs to be spent on making sure there are no bugs like this especially for a game that costs $7.
  • Fun

    Great ga
  • Lots of free game time

    I love when a game is generous with the free trial before having to buy it. This game was what I always enjoyed before hidden items and escape rooms took over. There where plenty of different kinds of things to figure out. Middle of the road difficulty. I thought the little tree buddy was adorable.
  • Poor Support

    Based on forum comments, its the usual blame game. The developer sends the user to Apple and Apple sends the user to the developer. I have experienced several bugs in this game. Of course, the only recourse is to reinstall the app. If you paid full price for this game, I feel for you.
