What’s changed?

I bought this game ages ago and thought I’d have another go on it. Why have I suddenly got to buy rubies to get hints or skip bits??
This wasn’t the case when I first got it. I never buy games that need more purchases. Very unfair of you to change the game to cost me more money!

Response from developer

Hello. We do not in any case offer a special price increase for no reason. We offer 2 variants of games: “premium” version of the game, where you pay once, and all hints and skips will be absolutely free; “free to play” - gameplay is free, but if necessary you can buy additional hints. Everyone chooses the option according to their preferences 💓💓💓 Here is the same game in Premium version: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dark-city-london/id1459355999.

Better than I thought, but not enough diamonds

I did enjoy the game a lot, especially with how I enjoy playing these games. I lucked up with finding this after finishing a couple series from another developer, and glad I did.

But I don’t like how everything cost so many diamonds. First, a hint is worth 3 and to skip puzzles is over 10/15 diamonds. And if we’re only going to start off with not merely enough diamonds, then I don’t think things should cost much diamonds. I only used diamonds once to skip a puzzle that just wasn’t letting me complete it (the lock to get get into the clock shop, I think?) and after that, that was it.

And in the end, I didn’t even have enough diamonds to complete the bonus chapter. Which also isn’t fair, because why should we fork over diamonds just to play the content already in the game? I do not like that, especially when there’s no way to earn free diamonds. Not even an ad, you just have to spend your money and that’s not fair. Even with having the $1.99, I don’t want to spend my money just to play something that should be a free part of the game anyway. And this kind of puts me off to play any other game made by this developer

high quality and delightful

All the Friendly Fox games are excellently made from the gorgeous graphics to the excellent music soundtracks, fun storylines woven through without getting tedious, and an excellent variety of hidden object challenges and many other puzzles. This game is no exception. The bonus games are always well worth it too so highly recommend.

Aucun plaisir…

Response from developer

Merci pour vos commentaires. Nous sommes désolés que le jeu n'ait pas répondu à vos attentes. Mais vous pouvez toujours utiliser les indices 😉

Sorry, no…

…not keen on these “pay as you go” games 🙁before you know it you’ve racked up a fortune! Give the option of buying the game too, please!

Good day. We have 2 variants of games: "premium" versions of the game, where you pay once and all hints and skips will be absolutely free; "free to play" - gameplay is free, but you can purchase additional hints if needed. We advise you to play the same game in premium format 😉 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dark-city-london/id1459355999

Reasonable game, lousy interface

The game is a pretty standard adventure/puzzle game. Pretty much what I wanted except the interface is just garbage on my iPad. Regions frequently fail to respond. Solutions to a puzzle don’t work even when they are the right one, because finding the precise way to combine the items on the screen is too hard. Super frustrating.

Nice 😏

I’ve been looking for a good puzzle adventure game developer since I finished all of 5BN

This is a good game , interesting well thought out storyline & characters good graphics and puzzles

I would recommend it and will definitely by trying some more from this developer 😉

Response from developer

Thank you for the feedback! We're trying to improve our games and would love to hear what you think. How we can improve the game so that it will qualify for a higher rating. We will be glad to see your suggestions for improvement 🙂

Could be better

Production quality is decent. Voice acting is ok. Why is there only one song the whole game? Puzzles are either too easy or frustrating. The final microscope puzzle was beyond unreasonable. It’s hard to see and there’s almost no way to keep track of what you’re doing. I ended up brute forcing it by button mashing.
