Needs Some Improvement
It’s very clear that whoever is writing the script for each case does not speak American English fluently nor do they understand the importance of correct spelling and grammar when investigating. I would like to see a change in the fact that whenever you want to refer to a previous questions you have to go through several ads as well as go all the way out and back in to the game only to have to do the same thing again if you answer the question wrong. I also feel that once you get to a certain point of the game the cases seem to get less creative and it begins to feel repetitive. Other than that I enjoy the game and am excited for new levelsShow lessstephsteph4
Game was unplayable
So this looked like a fun game, and for the most part what I could actually play was. I wanted to keep playing but I couldn’t focus on the game. the ads were absolutely unbearable. I have quite a few free games, and yes they all have ads but they aren’t as disruptive as these. These ads pop up in between everything you do, it’s frustrating and takes away from the gameplay. I like the games that implement ads as part of the gameplay, so you can choose to watch them if you want; they just don’t pop up randomly after every time you do anything. There’s also an ad banner at the bottom of the screen at all times...
It was so bad that I uninstalled after about 5 minutes of playing.Show lessandiliion
Great app! But...
I love this app so much and it really makes me alert in the real world. I had this game before a while ago, but I finished all of the levels. Yesterday, I got the game again because I thought there were new levels. This morning, I finished all of the levels in less than 24 hours. I think the creator and their team are doing great, but they need to make more levels because now I’m bored and looking for a new game!😀Show lessHappy Pupps
Amazing but...
SO MANY ADS! Maybe a banner ad would work better for this game, not an ad after every question. This is really frustrating, to the point where I was going to delete the game. But I have hope that you could fix this. Again, this would be a 5 star if it weren’t for the many ads put into it. Like I said, a banner at the bottom of the screen or even an ad after a level, not a question. I really hope you fix this because I would love to play more!😊Show lessMs. Dreemur
It’s Fun, But Could Be More Fun If..
If there weren’t so many Ads. I’ve been on a crime kick lately and when I saw this app advertised I wanted to give it a try because who doesn’t want to try and be a detective solving crimes? BUT it is EXTREMELY frustrating when there is an Ad popping up almost every five seconds, and some of them you end up accidentally clicking on, without even realizing it, and taking you out of the Pocket Mystery app to download the advertised app. It almost takes out all of the fun of solving the crime puzzles. And I get that I can pay “x” amount of dollars to remove the ads, but let’s be honest, who actually pays to remove ads? Ads pay for the app. I don’t mind banner ads at the bottom of the screen, I don’t even mind ads popping up before and after each solved case puzzle, but ads popping up after ALMOST EVERY right or wrong guess for four questions is a bit ridiculous. Not only is it super annoying, it also throws you off trying to solve each case because instead of remembering parts of the case you already answered correctly or other bits of information, you’re completely bombarded and distracted by the ads causing you to forget the information at hand.
Other than that, the game is enjoyable and addictive, and I’m already halfway through all of the stages.Show lessReallyCravingTacos
Amazing!
The riddles are really thought out and challenging. I ended up using a lot of clues. Sure, some questions were obvious and easy, but this game was still fun! The only thing was that there’s too little levels. I really hope you add more soon, but I understand if you don’t. Some might disagree saying there’s too many ads, but doesn’t every free game have too many ads? Give the developers a break. Every time I look at negative reviews, it’s almost always just about the ads. Seriously, you should be used to the ads by now. Developers spend a lot of time and money on these games. They have to make a profit, it’s their job, isn’t it? Stop complaining when they put a lot of effort into their games, especially for games or apps like this.Show lessgyihfhyg
Do Not Download
At first, this game was VERY fun and addicting. When I couldn’t solve a question, I used a clue. The clues were good, and whenever you asked for one it required you to watch an ad to get the clue. After that, it required you to rate the game. After THAT, is where it started to get disturbing. It asked me for a survey. It literally asked me “Do you sometimes get scared because you don’t remember if you turned the lights in your room on or off?” Considering this is a game about murder, this gave me the chills. Other questions were, “If your friend went missing, would you look for them?”, “ Would you date someone stunning but dress horribly?”, and “Do you like to kiss with your eyes closed?” This game is literally so creepy and I don’t recommend downloading it. It’s super disturbing and if you keep answering questions the questions might escalate and you might not even be safe. Please everyone don’t download this for your own safety. Any parents that see this delete this game. Thank you.Show lessLPSRuleTV
Crap
I spent about 15 seconds playing the game and had about 3 minutes of adverts, don’t waste your time.
I also tried to get the answer to one puzzle, watched an ad (40s) and it simply said congratulations on getting the answer right and didn’t actually tell me what the answer was.
Interesting concept but terrible implementation, don’t waste your time.Show lessBeaker years
Incredibly frustrating app
I love these types of apps as much as the next person, but the functionality of this app made me lose my mind! Biggest problems I noticed:
1) Ads: There are way too many ads. I completely understand the importance of them, but I couldn’t even figure out how to remove them without sitting through a dozen ads. I was also more than willing to pay to remove them, but I couldn’t figure out where to purchase the ad block. The ads make all the other problems so much worse to deal with, as well.
2) Typos: for a puzzle game, word choice and grammar are incredibly important. If the game asks “where did he receive the wound?” I don’t know if the game is asking for the place on his body that bears the wound, the location on a map at which he was wounded, or if there was an error in formulating the question that would give a different answer altogether (this is also made more annoying by the number of ads that appear for an incorrect selection).
3) Margin of error: the game does not allow much room for error in selecting your choice. For instance, if I mean to tap a window, but I tap the curtain instead, the game does not allow me to correct my mistake before claiming I was incorrect.
I was unable to tolerate using the app for more than 30 minutes because of these problems. These would need to be fixed before I could fairly rate the game based on the actual quality of the puzzles.Show lessElla Hernandez
Alrighty then
So the game is pretty fun, although it’s challenging sometimes, but I guess that’s kind of the point. The words weren’t translated exactly right, but it’s pretty close so it doesn’t bother me too much. To get the hint you don’t watch videos, you answer a survey. The questions are really sketchy though, there was one that said “which do you prefer: ‘so-so’ or ‘just usual’” the one right after that was: “do you love your mother or your father more?” And I just stopped and quietly said “nope” as I closed the appShow lesslife is miraculous
