### 5/5 — Absolut empfehlenswert

*2025-04-06*

Tolle Story, liebevoll gemacht. Hat uns einige Stunden in eine schöne Geschichte entführt. Vielen Dank. Jeden Cent wert.

### 2/5 — Ridiculous

*2024-09-06*

I cannot believe I paid for this game. How embarrassing. I honestly felt like it was made for children by children. Also it was short and no challenge whatsoever. For a game you play on your phone $5.99 is expensive unless it’s really good and also long. I feel like I got ripped off.  So I won’t be buying any games in the future from whatever lazy team put this together…..geez

**Developer response:** Hi, Stevestevestella. Thanks for your opinion. Could you explain your problem with that game? I don't understand your expectations or the irritation you experienced after playing the game. Related to the play duration, I'll like to refer to the description at the app store, which says, thats the game has a play duration of 1 h or more. Please give some advice to me so that I have a chance to fix the problems. Please be as detailed as possible. Thanks.

### 5/5 — 5/5 sternen is perfekt

*2023-10-17*

Ich war einer der glücklichen die es mit meiner mutter wärend eines urlaubs testen konnten und das spiel hat eine quallität die im point and klick genere auch von giganten wie dem alten lucas arts games kommen hätte können und man in heutigen zeiten von großen firmen net mehr oft sieht ein muss und ist jeden cent mehrfach wert

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für das tolle Feedback. Das ist Balsam für meine Entwicklerseele. Ich freue mich, dass es gefallen hat. 😌

### 1/5 — Save your money

*2021-06-27*

No voices and a mediocre storyline with not much to it unfortunately. 4.5 star average led me down the path to buying it but I’d recommend saving your money.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback, and sorry, the game didn't met your expectations. I've never announced having added voices to that point and click adventure game, because adding voices would double the price. If you think the game isn't worth a cup of coffee then I think voices wouldn't help here much anyway.

### 5/5 — Could have been fun but

*2020-07-11*

The speaking bubbles don’t show any words. It’s just white when they talk so can’t follow the game or what to do with out being able to see what characters are saying .

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your Feedback.
I'm sorry to read you completely dislike the game, because of this annoying bug. Some players have sent me similar hints pointing out the bug is related to gamers having dark mode on. Please try the game using light mode instead. Meanwhile I provide a bug fix release as soon as possible. Kind regards, Damian

Update: The latest version 1.2.1 takes the individual dark mode setting into account and makes the text visible again. I hope you give the game a second chance.

### 1/5 — Zeigt nur leere Sprechblasen an

*2020-07-08*

Mit dem iPad (13.5.1) enthalten die Sprechblasen keinen Text. Das Spiel ist so nicht spielbar. Schade um das Geld.

**Developer response:** Hi, danke für die Rezension bzw. den Hinweis auf ein Problem. Es gab bisher nur eine weitere Rückmeldung zum ausbleibenden Text. Dies konnten wir schnell auf eine benutzerspezifische Einstellung zurückführen. Haben Nutzer den Dark Mode aktiviert, führt dies zu Problemen bei der Darstellung. Check das mal bitte. Währenddessen ist ein Update mit einem Fix unterwegs. 
Für weitere Hilfe und Behandlung von möglichen Fehlern im Spiel stehen dir viele Kontaktmöglichkeiten außerhalb der Rezessionen zur Verfügung. Bitte nutze sie. Die Rezessionsfunktion ist stark limitiert bei Rückfragen und für angemessene Hilfe untauglich. Grüße, Damian

Update: Die neuste Version 1.2.1 berücksichtigt die individuelle Dark Mode Einstellung und  lässt den Text wieder sichtbar werden. Hoffe du gibst dem Spiel noch eine zweite Chance.

### 2/5 — Annoying.

*2020-01-20*

No speech just annoying music.  Need to read subtitles.  Can click on the same item over and over and you never know how many clicks before the thing actually does anything useful.  People basically just say howdy or engage in meaningless long dialogues you can’t stop, over and over.  5 minutes in sand I already want to shoot myself and I’m a solely point and click gamer. Nothing seems useful. Hard to navigate. Disaster.

**Developer response:** Hard review. I'm sorry to hear that. It sounds like you have played another game. Nevertheless, thanks for your effort.

### 5/5 — Witziges Spiel

*2019-08-02*

Das Ende lässt stark auf einen zweiten Teil hoffen, aber bloß wann?????!

### 3/5 — Good game but...

*2019-05-27*

How about some sound effects and voiceovers? Would give the game and character more charm. I would definitely pay more money to download part 2 if it included this

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. Argh! Earthlings! has a plenty of sound effects onboard already. Have you checked the sound volume in the volume preferences page? 
Indeed the game could benefit from voiceovers underlining the game's goofy atmosphere, but adding a voiceover to 3300 lines of text in up to 4 languages would be extremely cost and time intensive. Perhaps I'll be able to add voiceovers one day, to fulfill a well user experience.

### 4/5 — Sehr kurzweiliges schönes Adventure

*2019-05-17*

Rätsel sind alle lösbar, wenn nicht gibts Hilfe. Einige schöne Finten gelegt. Grafik ist gut, Steuerung befriedigend, was ich eher aufs Smartphone/Touch schieben würde. Ist halt kein Mauspfeil. Aber ä, hat Spaß gemacht. Einziger Wehrmutstropfen ist die Länge. Aber wenn das hier 8 Jahre gedauert hat ist das verständlich. Kaufempfehlung 👍🏻🙂

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für die sehr gute Rückmeldung. 😊
