### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-10-18*

I finished it in a couple of hours, I couldn’t stop myself. Glitch Games are some of my favourites of all time. Needed two hints but that’s not bad for me 😎🤟🏼

### 5/5 — Brief but excellent

*2024-10-12, version 1.0.1*

The game is a bit brief, but for the price it is very reasonable. This one had some really great puzzles in it. Well done.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2024-10-01*

Similar style as forever lost (Good thing for me) and lots of logical puzzles. Shorter than usual but price reflects it. Still waiting for All That Remains part 2 which this game kindly reminded me of.

### 5/5 — A great popcorn game

*2024-09-25*

Ya know those three dollar books you pick up to entertain you on a flight or roadtrip that end up being one of the best books you’ve read in a long time? That’s what this game was for me. A nice time while it lasted and gave me the feeling of completing something. I see they have a few other games, I will be definitely checking those out. Definitely recommend.

### 5/5 — Short

*2024-09-20*

Great game but short.  Was hoping it would last longer.

### 5/5 — Love

*2024-09-19*

I love games like this. I would play a thousand a year if I could keep finding quality ones like this.

### 5/5 — То, что нужно!

*2024-09-15*

Кто хочет поиграть в головоломки с прекрасной графикой - это для вас! 10 из 5!!! Прекрасный квест, спасибо создателям! Есть еще?)

### 5/5 — Super

*2024-08-08*

A super game as usual .
Thank you guys and girls !

### 5/5 — 99% Perfect

*2024-07-29*

Really great game, overall- enough to earn the 5 stars. There was one puzzle with an obtuse piece to the solution. It didn’t feel satisfying to learn the solution was a literal pun when the in game dialogue suggested it needed a key card. Needed a hint for that one. All the other puzzles were clever and rewarding, however, and the overall experience was worthwhile.

### 5/5 — Liked it

*2024-07-23*

I’ve played every Glitch game and this one is great like the others. It’s hard but I was able to complete without any hints so the game definitely took some time. Even writing down a few things on paper. (For those that called it short must be leaping for hints every time they get stuck.) Great game as always guys!

### 5/5 — A Happy Find

*2024-07-13*

A traditional point and click game with variety of logical puzzles. There are various subtle within game clues to point you in the right direction and a hint system, for those who are totally stuck. It felt very much like a mini add on to Forever Lost….. and nothing wrong with that.  Shorter than usual, but very good value for the small price…..about half the cost of a cup of coffee. Well done again, Glitch.

### 5/5 — Glitch perfect

*2024-07-11*

We love Glitch games. Good riddles, not much wandering around, no long conversations to click through. Keep going and good luck for the final!

### 5/5 — Beautiful and sneaky game all in one bundle of joy

*2024-07-06*

I have always loved Glitch games.  (Miss the old robot head, but get the streamlined version).  This game, is just as much fun and needing the old grey-matter to do it.  

Keep ‘em coming’.

### 1/5 — DULL

*2024-06-27*

Boring story. Fiddly controls. Illogical puzzles. Automatically switches off your audio when the game starts.

**Developer response:** Hi,

Sorry you felt that way. The controls are pretty much just "tap to interact" though, and some HUD buttons viewing photos Please get in touch with us via email with any feedback you have as we'd love to be able to sort out the issues in case anyone else has similar ones.

### 2/5 — Guess Glitch Games Is Over

*2024-08-02*

The last 4 or 5 games they’ve put out just feel like a money grab. They’re super short & have a fraction of the puzzles. It feels like the designers are over it. They keep putting stuff out b/c they know ppl will buy it, but it doesn’t seem like they enjoy making the games. The game design for A Fragile Mind appears to just be Forever Lost 1 repurposed. 
The last real game they made was Veritas. Station 117 wasn’t bad… it just felt like a free demo. The trial version you can play to decide if you want to buy the game. 
I love the originals — of course they’re know for Forever Lost — but A Short Tale & Ferris Mueller set the standard for iPhone games. Is it over? Is there any point in hoping Glitch will put out another full length game?

**Developer response:** Honestly, if you think selling super niche games at unsustainably low prices to an ever decreasing audience size is anything other than a terrible financial plan you're very mistaken. It is very much not a money grab, there's not enough money.

We are not doing this purely to make money - if all we wanted was money we'd get a much more financially viable, stable, and less stressful job. Maybe open a restaurant?

We're doing this because we like making these games, and we'll keep going as long as we can.

### 2/5 — Didn’t work

*2024-07-19, version 1.0*

I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max & game just got stuck. Tried several times without success. Bummer.

### 3/5 — :-/

*2026-04-17*

Gute Rätsel, gut lösbar, allerdings eine sehr kurze Spielzeit.

### 3/5 — Great game but way too short

*2024-07-14*

The game is in keeping with the rest of the Glitch games, definitely a winner. But unreasonably short. I hope part 2 is an update as this should’ve been longer for a paid game.

**Developer response:** I'm really glad you liked the game! The game is purposefully short - we intentionally call it a compact game - and feel that it is priced accordingly. It's considerably cheaper than something like a high street coffee yet i'll last you longer and provide more entertainment value,. There is no part 2 planned.

### 3/5 — Не очень

*2024-07-13*

Скучновата, коротковата, да и прошлась быстро, для 200р. Цена, с учетом текущего курса, завышена.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you felt the game was too short and priced too high "for the current exchange rate". Get out of Ukraine and maybe the exchange rate will be more favourable.

We purposefully designed, marketed, and priced, this game as a "compact adventure game" so feel that the price we set is more than fair.

### 4/5 — Great app but short.

*2024-09-30*

I’ve been playing a few Glitch games over the past month. I was surprised how short this one was. I did enjoy it though.

### 4/5 — Good

*2024-06-18, version 1.0*

I love glitch games, but sometimes the puzzles don't flow together. Like they are trying to make it too snazzy . Good thing they have clues for this game.

### 5/5 — Another great glitch game

*2026-02-11*

If you like glitch games, you’ll love this one! Not as difficult as forever lost, but just the right amount of difficulty. Definitely worth the money. Keep up the great work Glitch!

### 5/5 — 재미있게 잘했습니다. 단지…

*2025-09-19*

사진첩에서 사진에 조작을 하면 자꾸 처음으로 돌아가는게 좀 불편했고요
게임 내용중 병원직원을 고용할 때 순서별로 기능이 많은 사람들을 한 것 같은데 제가 생각한 건 여러 기능이 있어도 1st-strong…5th-English & Spanish로 생각해서 한거였는데 그 부분 힌트가 부족했던것 같습니다

### 5/5 — A Perfect Glitch!

*2025-01-14*

I can’t believe I missed this introduction as I have played all their games and just love them. But better later than never!  I love getting immersed and finally the moment when I’ve got it!  No hints needed, but lots of thinking it through. I thought the $ was more than fair and would’ve paid a lot more for the fun and quality this presents. I also thought the length was perfect.  And now we wait……..  Great job!

### 5/5 — So much fun!

*2025-01-06, version 1.0*

This game was so much fun, no boring puzzles. Was able to navigate around nicely and no glitches.

### 5/5 — Always Fun

*2024-11-22*

As long as you keep making these games, I will keep buying them. I hope you loose as much sleep making them as I do playing them.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2024-11-20*

Just fantastic, like all the Glitch Games. 
Also great customer service -- I emailed them with a question and they got back to me within 24 hours.

### 5/5 — Love you guys…

*2024-10-31*

Each and every one of you! 

Your intelligence, personality, creativity and wit shine through every single game you make. 

Just finished playing A Fragile Mind. Another home run for the Glitch dynasty! So much fun. And I’ll always happily pay full price for any future games you geniuses make. Thank you for being you! 

 Cheers

### 5/5 — Another brilliant game

*2024-10-25*

Whenever I see glitch have produced another game I get excited. Just the best fun

### 5/5 — Love ALL Glitch Games

*2024-10-23*

I have played every Glitch game Simon and Graham have made. I’ve also played hundreds of others, but none have it all like Glitch does. 

The puzzles are challenging, yet I can figure them out BEFORE the point of frustration. They are logical, and even on the rare occasion I’ve had to pull up a walk-through, they make sense.

I love that the situations and imagery are not too sci-fi, the eerie feeling that you’re actually walking in an abandoned mine, a hospital, or old house is so engaging.

I think the length of most of them is perfect. Playing a little every night before bed usually takes me several weeks. with a couple of them just when I thought they were too short there would be an epilogue an extra chapter to play.

I’m waiting, not-so-patiently, for the next one to come out! And my grandson loves it that they are now on Nintendo Switch.

### 5/5 — Love you guys…

*2024-10-23*

Every single one of you!

I mean, just based on the games you create…you must be incredibly awesome people…intelligent, witty, disciplined, artistic….and team players! 

Just finished playing A Fragile Mind. Another home run for the Glitch dynasty! Very fun. Sure it was shorter than some of your other games but you charged less $ anyways. But I’ll always happily pay full price for your genius games.  

Thank you for being you!

Cheers
