not intuitive or logical and buggy

The game is not intuitive or logical, waste of time really. You need to spend lots of time just pointlessly clicking on things. And who has so much time :) (I am working adult). I finnaly decided to delete the app when the cafe safe code (found at welcome sign) didnt work. I cannot even compare to the Agent A game I recenlty finished, where everything is moving fast and flawless. Gave 2 stars for design.

A waste of 5 dollars

Going around in circles.

If you are having trouble with the navigation, please note that there is an arrow on the bottom right of most screens that allows you to turn around. Some screens begin with you facing in the direction you came so you don't miss anything happening behind you.

A Game Worth Playing

I didn’t know anything about this developer or what to expect from their game.

Simplistically, the game design is like a “hallway” & you’re opening up “doors” on the right & left side — but, depending on what puzzles you’ve solved, what’s in the “rooms” change. Just because you’ve been there before doesn’t mean there isn’t something in there you need now.
This is one big puzzle adventure game & it actually feels quite long. There are games I’ve played & if it can be beaten in a few hours, you feel ripped off. But not this game. It lasted me a week. & now that I know the quality game my $ buys, I’m happy to explore the rest of their catalog.
The hint guide is really well done. If you’re stuck & just want to be pointed in the right direction, the titles give you a clue w/o spoiling the game.
My only note is there’s a bug in the hot plate puzzle. I never set the dials. I added the ingredients, but never set the temperature & time. The msg wasn’t clear that I’d done it correctly, calling the mixture“slop.” I filled the sprayer expecting when I used it for the game to say “something when wrong, it wasn’t made correctly, etc.” But no. It worked.

Thanks for the great review! And thanks for letting us know about the glitch with the hotplate. Fortunately, as you pointed out, the puzzle still works, it just appears you can skip a step. We’ll get that fixed in the next update.

too difficult

i’m not a stupid person. i shouldn’t have to spend half of my time on their hints pages. there are some puzzles that i very much doubt 95% of the population would get unless by accident. it took all of the enjoyment out of the game. not worth it to finish, it’s irritating.

Why did I just find out they released a new game 😭

Please keep making these games
I love your company’s games truly
I will purchase every game you make 😜😜😜😜

Response from developer

Thanks so much! We really appreciate that. Our next one is coming out early next year.

Holy #$@&

If you want to spend time with a game, this is it! Between the length, the story, the characters and the challenges it hit every mark for a great game! And it was fun to play! I probably achieved over 80% of the logic, but there was a hint system that went so far as to give the answers. I had played the previous games and look forward to their next! Kudos!

Thanks for the great review! It really means a lot.

Wha??

I love these games. They are thoughtful and engaging. But I cannot get off the initial screen on this one. Too complicated, too fast. It’s so annoying! And I paid for it. 🙄

What am I missing??

Response from developer

If you'd like to reach out to us on our website, we'd be happy to help. Not really clear the issue you're having. At the start of the game, you go up the stairs into town and arrive at the town square, facing back the way you came. This is so you are sure to see everything on the way to the inn. The inn is your ultimate destination. Turn around (using the curved navigation arrow) and it's on the right.

It’s hard.

I just downloaded this game last night . It’s a hard game . I’m not good at figuring out clues ( I’m old) so maybe it’s me and not the game. But I’m enjoying it.

Epic point and click adventure!

Just finished this. There’s a LOT of fun gameplay for the price. I got hooked on the story and had to keep playing until i got to the end.

The art is charming. The writing is funny and fun. The puzzles are creative and challenging and go beyond the usual point-and-click fare in clever inventiveness.

I got stuck sometimes, but they have a terrific hints page that gives you tiny bits of info before the full answer so you can still have the fun of working things out.

Very much looking forward to playing the rest of their games. If you’re a fan of this genre, you should check this out.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful, detailed review. It really means a lot to us.

Difficult But Fun

This game was a bit hard at times and had to use the hint guide, but I really enjoyed it. I liked the story line and traveling through time. You can tell that a lot of thought, time, and effort was put into this game. If you like challenging games with humor, original storylines and gameplay then I would recommend this game. I am off to buy another one of their games, because I liked this one so much.

Thanks for the great review and for trying another of our games! Hope our hint guide was helpful. In future games, we're working on including more hints within the game itself as well as online.
