Great on paper but bad gameplay

Not worth the money. Great concept on paper. But super cluttered and horrible gameplay. Deleted off my devices. Don’t bother.

Very Glitchy

This is very hard to explain. So I first opened the game and started playing and I really liked it but as soon as I got to the healing elixir part it got glitchy. I do admit that I did the order wrong I put the orange and the elixir in the vinyls, then Lit it when it was supposed to be the other way around. It wouldn’t let me do anything past then I could go in all the rooms and do other things but it wouldn’t let me continue I couldn’t click on certain things. I looked in in the guide and the things that I should’ve been able to do I couldn’t have done. So I started a new game but all of the stuff that I did in the previous game was kind of still there for example in the room with the vile and you’re supposed to light it and add the flower petals in the coin that was already lit and there was already liquid in the bile I couldn’t do anything with it because it was already done and I couldn’t pick it up I can’t play anymore and I hope this gets fixed

Update: After waiting a day got pants the part of making he healing elixir but as soon as I got to new HOS things went south again. The items that it wanted me to find weren’t in the scene, I even used a hint and it didn’t show me. I found out that the items that I could not find in the previous HOS are in another one.

Old-style game

Not recommended for the $5 price. I didn’t like the distracting navigation arrows or the timed HOS with the disappearing items, but because the gameplay is pretty long it is worth a try if it ever goes on sale.

Sort out bugs please

Great. A point and click adventure that often doesn’t register where you’re pointing and clicking.
It isn’t my screen responsiveness either. I can pinch in and out of a scene but just can’t pick up or zoom in on what I’m supposed to when I tap it; coins, puzzles, scenes with people, whatever.
I’ve checked I’m on the right things using the hint button and, yes, I’m doing the right thing but the game’s response is “sorry, won’t let you have it”.
Deciding at random that you can’t have the thing you need to progress means it pretty much falls at the first hurdle for a point and click adventure. At the moment I can’t give the game a full review because to progress in the game any further it seems I have to give a cure to a sick man lying in bed. On my screen I can see the cure in my inventory and the man lying in bed. There’s a gold ‘twinkle’ effect inviting me to select him, when I press the ‘hint’ button, he’s encircled with a green haze telling me to select him, and I’m pressing right in the centre of it trying to select him. Again. All in vain, alas.
I don’t want my money to be wasted (I don’t think I’ll preorder again) so please sort this out.
Otherwise, the game looks very nice, graphics are great, although music is pretty thin on the ground but that doesn’t bother me much.
What does is the large jiggling arrows on the screen in every scene, pointing to where you can advance or retreat. It completely seperates you from the scene and stops you feeling involved in what’s going on by exaggerating the fact that you’re just in a game, if you see what I mean. In theatre it would be called breaking the fourth wall too often. This does it on every screen and you can’t turn it off. There’s a reason why other point and click adventures don’t have big arrows all over the place; please allow us to get rid of them.
I’m using an iPad pro 12.9 running ios 12.1.1
