Stuck with it and LOVED it

The beginning is a bit slow, since it starts off easy. The hidden objects were a bit repetitive in the beginning, but then got amazing. The items in the rooms change, and sometimes you have to do things like in order to find a branch, you have to first find the ax to chop a branch off, and there are lots and lots of rooms and puzzles. The story is great. English translations are a bit wanting, but not so you won’t understand or get too annoyed.

Bad glitch

I was enjoying the game until the store went south. Tried to purchase 10 “magnifying glass” hints for eight jewels. It took the jewels, but gave me nothing in return. Tried purchasing one at a time with same result.

An update: Whatever the problem was it was at my end. I reloaded the game and it is working perfectly. I agree with others that all the repeated hidden item searches are a bit tedious. However, there are many innovative, challenging puzzles that make the effort worthwhile. Another great game from Five BN.

I think this is a masterpiece. Took a bit of adapting to as its a different format, but we’ll worth perseverance. I’m now starting the endless mode bonus part. There is so much to this game and the story is very good

Another Winner - takes some time to get used to

I absolutely love everything by this company! At first I didn’t understand this game. It wasn’t like the ones before and I didn’t like the differences. But a couple of other reviewers said to persevere. I’m so glad I did. Excellent game, yes it gets a little repetitive having to find things from the same places, but once you know where everything is, it doesn’t add much extra time. It lasted longer than previous games and highlighted on the map where you needed to go, which was helpful. I ended up loving this game as much as the others, if not more. These games are so soothing and comforting, I cannot get enough of them.

Excellent game!

After reading all of the negative comments I felt obligated to give a review. Yes, I love and have played all of their other games and, yes, this game is new and different. But once you give it a shot and play it for more than 30 minutes or an hour it is SO addicting and I actually prefer the new format over the old one. It’s more thought out and the story line is more engaging. I also love the unlimited free play at the end! I recommend checking achievements in the menu for free diamonds. I also love that this game lasted longer than the others. Thank you so much developers for your efforts and talent behind this and please keep making more exactly like this! I can’t wait until your next release!

What happened?

I am a fan of Five-BN games but not this one. I gave 3 stars out of respect for all the other excellent games. I started over twice with full tutorial on the start overs, but I never understood what was going on. There were all these sub-screens with stuff. I don’t know if I collected them or if I was supposed to. I needed to find an unspecified number of keys, but when I found one it disappeared. I think I found the keys in one of the sub-menus - or did I? I had 3 keys of one type, no keys of another type, and so on. What was the purpose of the pantry? Was I supposed to do it over and over until what? If the boy is missing, why do I need to wait? I just deleted the game. I will wait for you next new game and pray that it returns to your former excellent product.

Good day, please, share some detail on this matter with us at support@fivebngames.com.

Long-playing and challenging

I loved this game! It is much more involved than their other games and solving takes longer. It was not initially clear how to solve the puzzles, but then I realized the map pointed me to the next location. It was a nice mix of puzzle-solving and HOP. I appreciated the fact that it’s complicated because it meant I could played this game for weeks.I really hope they make more of this type of game

Love this game!!

Played many of your other games and I enjoy them all but I love the new format in this one. It is very long and has a lot to do. It took me a little bit to figure out how things worked, but once I did, I have a enjoyed it a lot. The art and the voice overs are amazing also. Great job! Getting to play it for free makes it even more wonderful. Thank you for a great game!

Frustrated and then delighted once I got the hang of it

Just like the title says, and other reviewers mention, this has very slightly different mechanisms to some of the other lost world games. It does involve going back and forth and playing what seems like the same puzzle over and over, but once you get the hang of the format it’s actually very enjoyable. It was really immersive and I found that if there was a puzzle type you didn’t like, you could find another way to get an item to progress. I didn’t pay a penny for upgrades or hints, as you can earn hints by completing collections. I’d say it’s a cross between “lost lands” and “seekers notes”. Getting used to using the map to tell you where to go next was a real help. Anyway, wanted to balance out some of the negative reviews. I really enjoyed playing the main game and am still enjoying playing the bonus game at the end 😀

Just Okay, Not As Fun as Others by This Developer

The inventory management is a bit confusing in this game, especially compared to other games by the same developer. I love solving puzzles, I have played and finished every other game by this developer. This developer is known to make it really hard to find puzzle pieces, but this game is next level ridiculous, to the point I don’t even want to play it. In most puzzles in this game, pieces are blended so closely to the background making it physically impossible to find all clues without a hint. Very disappointing. How does this game meet ADA Compliance for visually impaired? Surprised y’all haven’t been sued yet. This will probably be the first game by this developer that I stop playing. Just not fun. Please go back to your original format from previous games which you have developed.
