Pretty awesome except glitches when trying to accomplish certain task it can make you crazy...
This is a graphic intensive thriller. While the storyline is pretty bizarre, the developer put a lot into the special effects which were all crisp and clear. The hidden object scenes were interactive and I found creativity in them. Some of the puzzles were unique and fun as well. It is true, as stated by others that there are some glitches - however, they were just a nuisance, as you have to tap multiple times to obtain an object. I have always enjoyed this series, but be prepared for the intense and violent graphics at times. Lot's of running around to perform tasks, however teleporting map was provided. Nice long game, with plenty to see and do. You'll have to make your own decision on this one. I am not sorry that I purchased it on sale.
Lot's of work went into creating this game.

I also wanted to mention - I have been looking for our new release today and nothing so far! I really hope that all the fellow gamers will stop with so much complaining about the games. Opinions are good - however no one needs to pick the games to pieces. After all each developer has their own style and I am sure creating these games isn’t easy.
We’re to enjoy them - if it is not your style then don’t buy it.
And to those who had a prob with the continue through the storyline.... it tells you to double tap. I had no prob with any part of the game function but it was so simplistic I just couldn’t get into it. No challenge at all.. no morph objects and kinda boring collectibles.. big fish is still my favorite but we need more suspense!! Or at least I do!! 😊. Thanks!
The following review is based on the free-trial only:
Warning! There are disturbing scenes containing graphic violence!
ERS changed their name to AMAX Interactive. However, the name change does not sugarcoat the serious imperfections plaguing their games, nor does it change the fact that they should retire and find a new occupation. Their series are among the worst in the hidden-object genre. This installment might be the worst in this series in almost every way possible. The storyline has no rhyme or reason, as I find myself running around, wondering what to do next. This series typically overuses horrifying tropes, such as tortured apparitions requesting your aid, the exploration of gloomy and decrepit grounds, and menacing entities thwarting your objectives.
The music accentuates a foreboding and dreadful ambiance, which plays well into the haunting theme of the storyline. The highlight of this game is the visual appeal; the quality of the graphics is attention-worthy, with sharp and clear details that portray a natural-looking finish.
You can customize your settings. The inventory is labeled and interactive; items require assembly. In custom mode, the teleport map facilitates delayed travel to desired locations and indicates available actions.
For anyone who looks forward to being pleasantly surprised by trend-setting gameplay, this game is a total downer. The types of formats and techniques applied to both the HOSs and puzzles are run of the mill. With that said, the HOSs and puzzles are sometimes creatively presented. The collectibles are scant, with only 12 items within a singular set to discover.
The other bad news is that I encountered several glitches during the free trial: 1. The "continue" button and/or tapping on the dialogue box does not advance the dialogue. You need to tap on the screen for the dialogue to continue. 2. Transition between cut-scenes and locations is sluggish and clunky. 3. This game desperately needs a "back" button to avoid unwanted returns to prior scenes; if I tap in the lower third of the screen, then back I go.
This game feels antiquated, like it should have been released two, even three, years ago. The only reason I bothered playing the free trial is because according to BFG's Facebook page, Redemption Cemetery is the only IOS game released this week. The other mobile game, which we've already played, is out on Android. Hopefully, BF erred in their post and will release a second game on Wednesday. But either way, no purchase for me.
This is not a bad game, but nothing great about it either. The biggest concern is that in the HOs the touch is off. Tapping anywhere in the lower 1/3 of the game backs one out of the HO.
Play the free trial and then decide if it is worth the sale price.
Weird, choppy continuity, as if it were constructed by a two year old. Things show up without explanation (i.e. the code book for the front gate just appears), the story mentions ‘falling asleep’ as if that’s fatal and requires defibrillation/resuscitation or means loss of your soul. Very awkward pacing. If this keeps up, I will not buy it.
Interesting game, different HOP’S, but “continue” button does not work. Click on character to continue. A bit disjointed, a bit confusing. Would not buy for full price
Developer Response
Hey Galumpus, sorry to hear the continue button isn’t working for you. Just to be sure, are you tapping the buttons twice? The Continue and Skip buttons need to be tapped twice in order to move on in this game. If that doesn’t work please reach out to our Support team at http://bigfi.sh/2qIy7iz and they can try to help you! All the best and thanks for giving the game a shot!
