  • Interesting and Challenging!

    I have just begun the game and am at Level 3. Thus far, it is interesting, challenging and mildly addictive. I am really enjoying it and look forward to completing the game. Four stars at this point leaves room for kudos at the end.

  • Escape Game Lover

    I wish people would stop wanting everything for nothing! I totally understand that the people who make these games need something for their time and effort. It isn't exactly easy and quick when creating these types of games!! It's not like you are looking for $20! We probably wouldn't even have them to play if there wasn't some type of compensation people! Having said that....I like this game! It makes a lot of sense, in most of the rooms anyway. I like that you don't have to have music playing. However, there is a cliche with the walkthroughs that someone already mentioned. In addition, I really prefer the escape games like "Royal Escape" and "Magic Escape." Those are just so realistic i.e. sounds and animation. So based on that and the cliche, I gave it only 3 stars. Without the cliche it definitely would have been 4!
  • OH MY GOODNESS!!!

    I want to give this app 5 stars SO bad, but I can't for a game that provides ONLY 9 FREE levels. Some levels were challenging (which I love), and I ALMOST had to use the walkthroughs; however, I used my brain and "toughed" through it. Stop seeing $$! (Jackpot! ๐Ÿค‘๐Ÿค‘๐Ÿค‘) Make this into a ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ game by giving us ALL FREE levels!!
  • Just right!

    Clever puzzles that make you think, but the clues are straight forward rather than obscure and frustrating like some other escape games. Well done!
  • Excellent Game

    A little simple but every now and then pretty difficult. A good balance that I enjoyed playing. Buy the "all in" package, it makes the game as smooth as it can get.
  • Only 9 levels are free

    Finished the first 9 lvl in less than 30 mins, then you have to pay for the bonus lvls. I couldn't even see how much they cost since it keeps asking for my Apple ID. Some other reviewer said it cost $3 for 4-5 lvls, not worth it.
  • You have to just think some no cheats or wt.

    I like this one it was challenging but you did not need cheats or walkthroughs just think some and use a lot of numbers with letters. I liked it. It was enough to be complicated but not enough to be frustrating. Thx nice game for a change.
  • Good game

    I liked the game. It had a reasonable amount of difficulty. Something I've realized though is that I prefer hints over walkthroughs. But I understand walkthroughs are easier.
  • Fun game

    I find the game fun. At first I did not like having to start over but now I find it fun and challenging to see how fast I can get up to where I was.
  • Love it. Totally addicting.

    Very entertaining for a 7-year-old or a 37-year-old. My kids and I are totally addicted to these escape games. Wish there were more levels! A little pricey for bonus levels, but I'm addicted, so I paid it.
