Stupid

Absolutely loved the game at first. The story and all was great but then you have to wait for energy or pay. Screw that. I will not play a game I have to wait to play. It should be a one set affordable price to play the whole game or not. Deleted and won’t try another. 😞

Stopped working

The game was already a little annoying because of the energy requirement thing. Whatever that is. It just seems like a way to get money and I don’t care for that. But the game itself was decent but then in the middle of a scene, my item started to just disappear so I couldn’t use them on anything and when I went out of the game and came back in the whole game started over without me doing it. Definitely going to get my money back.

Ripped off

Paid for this game in 2021. Now the format has changed and it asks me to pay to play for “energy.” So much for the “Pay once, play forever“ promise. Developer is too lazy to just make new games, just trying to remonetize old ones. Insult to injury? Support button doesn’t work - clicks nowhere - and game crashes back to beginning. So long Elephant …..

The premium version of this game is still in the AppStore, it's called Strange Investigations 1: Birth.

The energy concept is trash

The games are fun, but the energy is so annoying, especially when it takes an entire day to refill. I refuse to spend money on it.

Game kept resetting back to the start

After the game reset twice back to the beginning, I just deleted it. I couldn’t get past the movie theater

Rip off

I purchased 3 x £1.79 and without using any skips it still asks to purchase more. On the last £1.79 purchase I had to wait after one move. Not happy.
Tried again and purchased more energy but after this I managed to carry on without using any skips or hints for about 3 minutes then it ran out of energy and wanted more cash or waiting time. What is going on with you!

Fun

I loved it because it has a variety of puzzles and great graphics to go along with the storyline. Looking forward to playing the next game.

Hello there! Thank you for the review. We really appreciate it.

Oh my goodness, this is ridiculous

I purchased this game eight months ago and I've played it several times. When I downloaded it again today it's asking me to pay to recharge the game at different points. Plus there's no strategy guide anymore like before. I'd like to know what happened to the buy it now play it forever promise. Absolutely nothing about this is right. What is up with you elephant games?. This stinks!

Keeps resetting! DEVELOPERS PLEASE TAKE NOTE,

I was halfway through the game(know this as this is a rerun)when I had to pause it. When I open the app up to continue playing the blasted thing reset!That was five attempts ago,because EVERY SINGLE TIME I go back to continue to play from where I left off,again it resets! And,NO! I am NOT pressing the “Reset”.

Another annoying thing is the energy level 😡 5 minutes of play is all you get before it quits due to low energy!! It just gives time to solve the 3 disc book puzzle in the apartment. No way will I pay for energy as this would probably amount to high double figures,for a few minutes play,daylight robbery!
I know some people will actually pay just to carry on playing,at least give more energy for the payments and,add videos to watch to get more,like all of the other games of this genre do.

Perfect!

I’ve played a lot of games similar to yours, but the best part was when I ran out of energy and couldn’t play again until it filled up. It’s so difficult for me to walk away from playing, I’m enjoying it so much. I’ll be downloading it again in the future. Thanks!
