### 4/5 — Nicht wirklich ein Spiel

*2024-05-30, version 1.5*

Die Zeichnungen und Dialoge ziehen einen immer mehr in die Story aber es ist kein Spiel schade eigentlich weil mit‘nen paar Rätseln wäre es ein richtig gutes Game

### 4/5 — 4 stars

*2024-01-01, version 1.5*

Thought this story was pretty good but lacking in a couple of ways. Writing was good as was narration. Story was somewhat short and, in most situations, your choices have little or no impact on how the story plays out. Also, to find out if changing a choice makes any difference, you have to replay the entire story. There were a couple of times during my first run-through when I missed something or wanted to make sure I was remembering correctly but there no way to back up, even to just the previous scene. Would be great to have more flexibility in story navigation. Liked the artwork and plotline. Story was also on the short side, so would have preferred something a little longer. Looking forward to other offerings by this dev

### 2/5 — Sad

*2023-09-17, version 1.5*

Spoilers.

We made the guy go back and…..😶

### 2/5 — Great Story

*2022-08-31, version 1.5*

Very interesting game with a wonderful story and beautiful illustrations. Only thing I would strongly recommend adding is the ability to skip through the text/different parts of the story. I’m trying to replay it to find out the different endings but it’s very boring having to sit through each piece of text again when I’ve already read it.

Edit: it’s been months since my initial review and I haven’t gotten and developer feedback or updates to the game. That’s disappointing, I would have played it again or recommended it otherwise, and I’ll be downgrading my rating in lieu of that.

### 2/5 — Décevant au final

*2022-07-10, version 1.5*

Non seulement les sous-titres auraient pu être traduits dans plusieurs langues depuis que cette appli existe (pour une meilleure immersion dans la narration, l’anglais employé restant néanmoins simple et accessible à des novices), mais aussi les choix faits par le joueur n’influence que très peu le déroulement de l’histoire (que j’ai faite plusieurs fois pour vous le confirmer).
C’est donc une déception malgré des efforts évidents de la part des développeurs. Jouez-y pour découvrir l’intrigue… mais ne vous attendez pas à ressentir l’extase. C’est vraiment dommage.

### 5/5 — Interesting way to “force” a story despite choices

*2022-06-23, version 1.5*

Some events just have to occur - well done. A minor glitch I would say is when cracking the case open but nothing is triggered while reading the newspaper. Will keep trying for more paths to go.

### 4/5 — Good story & graphics

*2022-06-04, version 1.5*

Worth a play through or two for the story, but it lacks on the “choose your own adventure” aspect. Only a few options towards the end will make a difference to the outcome. Unfortunately, to get to them you have to sit through the entire thing each time. It’d be nice if there was a way to skip to various chapters after the first time through, or maybe an option to “backup” decisions to try a different option.

### 5/5 — Fun game.

*2022-06-01, version 1.5*

Lots of fun. 

I wish there was a horror version of this, like saw. 

And I got to either make choices to send them to their death, or help them make decisions to get out alive. And we had a Lille back story to the characters. 

Either way, lots of fun. I wish when we choose to kill a character, we got to see them die. No closure.

### 5/5 — A brisk thriller

*2022-05-29, version 1.5*

A brisk thriller interactive adventure short story. Looking forward to playing related games!

### 5/5 — Expérience très sympathique

*2022-05-15, version 1.5*

Expérience très sympathique. 

Le jeu est en anglais, si vous êtes trop flemmard ou que vous faites pas d’efforts de manière générale passez votre chemin. 
Les commentaires 1* « gna gna gna c’est en anglais » sont ridicules. 

Si au contraire vous souhaitez jouer en anglais et au passage vous perfectionner c’est cool, y a les sous-titres, on peut suivre a l’oreille ou en lisant.

### 5/5 — Great free game!

*2022-05-13, version 1.5*

Loved it so very much! Thank you, I love a good story and I really enjoyed this one. Well read and written. I couldn’t put it down. Can’t wait for another keep it up.

### 5/5 — Mükemmel kurgu ayrıca ücretsiz!

*2022-05-13, version 1.5*

Oyun boyunca hem müzik hem de olay örgüsü oldukça iyiyidi. Eğer hikaye içindeki detaylara dikkat edip belli can alıcı noktaları fark ederseniz hikayenin sonunda tüyleriniz bende de olduğu gibi diken diken olacaktır. Ücretsiz olması ise büyük nimet<3

### 5/5 — Recommended

*2021-10-31, version 1.4*

Beautifully drawn and thrillingly written choose your own adventure type game. So if you like those, definitely check this one out

### 1/5 — Just horrible

*2022-07-02, version 1.5*

One of the WORST game play I’ve ever experienced. Too much text and you can’t even fast-forward. It takes like forever to go over the plot, which turns out to be quite lame and boring. The developer better not charge people anything for this garbage

### 1/5 — Aucune version française 🙆🏻‍♂️

*2022-05-08, version 1.5*

On ne comprends rien c’est tout en anglais et non traduit… 🙇🏻‍♂️

### 1/5 — Würde ja gerne aber…

*2021-12-21, version 1.4*

Hätte die App gerne, wie angeboten mit dem Merge Cube verwendet. Leider scannt die App den Würfel nicht.
Von einer bezahlten App hätte ich mehr erwartet. Bitte um bugfix, so kann das ja nicht bleiben.

### 1/5 — Merge cube funktioniert nicht

*2021-11-12, version 1.4*

Leider hält die App nicht das was sie verspricht. Egal wie man den Merge cube dreht, es passiert nichts, obwohl dieser bei anderen Anwendungen problemlos funktioniert.

### 1/5 — Merge cube won’t scan

*2021-09-22, version 1.4*

Hi bought this today and my merge cube won’t scan. What am I doing wrong.

### 1/5 — Wouldn’t scan cube.

*2021-08-13, version 1.4*

Very frustrating especially after paying for the app

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht mit dem Merge Cube

*2021-05-03, version 1.4*

Weder mit meinem iPad noch mit meinem iPhone gelingt es mir, den Merge Cube zu scannen - was bei anderen Anwendungen kein Problem ist. Auch nach mehrmaligem Ausprobieren klappt es nicht. Enttäuschend!

### 1/5 — Could have been much more

*2020-07-07, version 1.4*

Even though it’s advertised as hundreds of choices, almost all the choices bring you back to the main story. It’s incredibly linear; even on subsequent playthroughs choosing different options, you get the same outcomes (with a few details changed). It’s also quite short (can finish it in well under an hour). Also, it almost feels like the app was created just to promote Merge Cube. Not worth $2.99.

### 1/5 — Русифицируйте пожалуйста!!!

*2020-05-05, version 1.4*

Видно что игра красочная и эпичная, но обилие диалогов на английском отбивает всю охоту играть!

### 1/5 — Not worth the $2.99

*2020-05-01, version 1.4*

Storyline is too linear. The game pushes you to its narrative without allowing much variations. I also think that the game would have benefited by employing voice actors. The use of narration was lackluster and a bit pretentious—it’s like hearing someone reading a book report full of direct quotations.

### 5/5 — Unexpected

*2026-03-11, version 1.5*

Now days I find it hard to find good games that aren’t riddled with ads or trying to get you to purchase more things, but this game not only didn’t ask for any money but was an exciting story! I’m not sure it felt like my choices always mattered but it still was a great journey. Would recommended to anyone who likes choose your own adventure stories!

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2025-12-30, version 1.5*

This game seriously was awesome. I loved the different choices and the atmosphere. It was an awesome play.

### 5/5 — I love it!!

*2025-07-22, version 1.5*

This game is amazing! The story,the music, the vibe ,all of it is so vivid. It feels like I am the one of them.
Although my English is not that good, i can still feel the nervous and anxious of Sasha and Calab.
Please make more games as good as this!!

### 5/5 — Would recommend

*2024-11-21, version 1.5*

A very enjoyable and suspense-filled game. I only wish I had the patience to go back and explore all the options. I feel like I missed some interesting secrets.

### 5/5 — Unique and intriguing

*2024-10-03, version 1.5*

Really enjoyed my time with this very inventive story structure

### 5/5 — An lnteresting game!

*2023-03-15, version 1.5*

I like these fine pictures ,music and exciting story⋯Different choices will cause different ends,it is awesome !

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2023-01-23, version 1.5*

Amazing art, story, music and experience. For anyone who is a fan of interactive fiction -  go for it.

### 5/5 — Good story, cool artwork

*2022-12-28, version 1.5*

Well done! It’s a pretty short game but a good story. Worth it!

### 5/5 — Short but beautiful

*2022-07-26, version 1.5*

It’s a short game about an hour perhaps, buts is beautifully drawn and the narrator did a great job at creating atmosphere. 
It doesn’t cost you anything so you should just try it. I hope the developers want to create a lager game in the future.

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2022-07-15, version 1.5*

Solid game and love the art style. The choose your own adventure aspect is pretty cool, and warrants another play through after your original one. The story is somewhat linear, though you choices can bring about a couple of different outcomes, but you can get some more info on the story by making different choices. 

I wish it was longer so we could learn more toward the end. Getting this for free was a steal, and would love to see a sequel following this plot line!
