But once I finished it, it won’t let me play again. Not even under a different name. It keeps saying I collected all the artifacts. After paying for it, it’s disappointing that I only got to play it all the way through once. ### 3/5 — Artifact Quest *2023-06-28* This game is a lot of fun and I really enjoy it. But once I finished it, it won’t let me play again. Not even under a different name. It keeps saying I collected all the artifacts. After paying for it, it’s disappointing that I only got to play it all the way through once. ### 3/5 — It’s ok *2022-02-10, version 1.0.0* Good 😋😨😘 ### 4/5 — Artifact Quest *2022-01-17, version 1.0.0* Very enjoyable game, however, the game is stuck on Level 12-1 and cant get out of it. Please advise. ### 4/5 — Artefact quest *2021-08-25, version 1.0.0* Votre jeu est bien mais il bug à chaque mouvement Merci de faire le nécessaire ### 3/5 — Fun game, playable but glitchy. *2020-01-03, version 1.0.0* Fun game, love the game play. Story line inconsistent . The reason for only three stars is it is glitchy. I still enjoy it and have fun with it. One of the prime glitches is a couple of the bonuses go the opposite direction you move them. The bonus game is faulty. You can tap the dropping icon but it won’t grab. Last annoyance is the no more moves takes an inordinate amount of time to notify and reset. ### 5/5 — Good *2019-08-09, version 1.0.0* I used up the trial and purchased it right away. It can be played in relax mode which I like. Great for light hearted play when I can’t sleep due to migraine. ### 3/5 — Not worth the money - too short *2018-09-23, version 1.0.0* It's a good game, very enjoyable but it's too short. I paid £2.99 for it and couldn't believe it ended so quickly. What a shame. Surely more levels can be added, especially for those who pay the full asking price of £4.99. ### 5/5 — Mee *2018-08-28, version 1.0.0* Very good game ### 4/5 — Great *2018-08-07, version 1.0.0* Really fun and addictive. ### 3/5 — Spiel muss freigekauft werden *2018-07-04, version 1.0.0* Mein Fazit ist, dass das Spiel sehr cool ist. Verschiedene Bewegungsmöglichkeiten der Steine, aus vielen drei gewinnt spielen vereint, mal Steine verschieben, dann wieder tippen usw. Aber nach 3-3 Leveln ist Schluss, dann heißt es Geldbörse raus und freikaufen. Na aber sicher nicht mit mir. Das kann man anders lösen, z.b in Game pay. Aber ich werde sicher kein Spiel kaufen. ### 5/5 — Nostalgie *2018-06-22, version 1.0.0* J'avais ce jeu sur l'ordinateur avec Windows il y a longtemps, celui-ci est identique, beaucoup de plaisir à le retrouver. Parce que sous Linux / Wine je n'ai jamais pu le faire fonctionner. Il y quand même plus de difficulté avec le gameplay à cause de la taille de l'écran. La corbeille pour les artéfacts qui descendent est inutilisable. Pour le début ça ne gêne pas encore, plus tard ça va être problématique. Merci quand même de l'avoir porté sur ce support. ### 4/5 — Nice *2018-06-11, version 1.0.0* Nothing flashy. You can replay, tap the gear icon, there is a profiles button lower left corner, start with a new name. I like that there is an untimed mode. Do wish I could turn off tutorial. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Just ended *2022-07-13, version 1.0.0* Playing away quite happily and the restoring of the island just ended, bit disappointing ### 1/5 — Artefakt *2018-11-12, version 1.0.0* Absolut langweilig, immer dieselben Bewegungen, dafür überteuert ### 1/5 — Flawed game becomes monotonous at best *2018-10-14, version 1.0.0* Free part plays fine but once you pay you will come across games that will not detect completion when in the timed mode. Exiting the game, killing all other processes etc will still leave you frustrated. Multiple plays sometimes will work but switching to relaxed works. Relaxed mode is relaxed but soon the game becomes monotonous and oh so boring. They try to ramp up the difficulty but then it’s a race against time and how is that relaxed and not timed? ### 1/5 — Big Nanna 65. *2018-09-05, version 1.0.0* Crummy no sound. Still waiting for our weekly game big fish. ### 1/5 — Too short! *2018-06-30, version 1.0.0* I paid $3 for this?!? Way too short! ### 1/5 — うちの島は滅んだ *2018-06-27, version 1.0.0* しばらく遊んでからメニューに戻ると、プレイボタンを押してもアップグレード（課金）画面に進むようになってしまった。 最初の目標である自分の家の再建すらできずに島は滅びました。 ### 1/5 — 最低 *2018-06-13, version 1.0.0* 2度も騙されました 1度買ったゲームなのに 2度も600円払わされたあげくにゲームが 出来ない 許せない ### 1/5 — Do Not Buy, *2018-05-30, version 1.0.0* This is the exact same game that was sold by bf several years ago. The problem is you can only play this game all the way thru one time, no replay ability at all. Inability to replay is not stated anywhere. This is a scam. ### 1/5 — Annoying *2018-05-28, version 1.0.0* Why can this only be downloaded on a upgraded I-pad, as love games by Big Fish, yet I can download this on my old phone ### 1/5 — Old game *2018-05-24, version 1.0.0* This is a very old game I bought from bf on iOS a few years back! Now you’re putting it back on as new and I can’t even restore my purchase as it says no history found! Were there new updates maybe? If so then say just that, not that it’s a brand new game! Is it possible this game was previously released by another gaming company and now released again by bf on the same system- iOS/iPad? Regardless, I know I bought this game thru iTunes years ago on my iPad because I’ve never played a game on any other system/format/device. I’ll contact bf and iTunes to restore my purchase. Otherwise, for those that have never played it, it’s really fun especially for folks that like match3 games. It’s different and even has a relaxed mode setting that allows you to play without limited moves or time, just take as long as you want to hit your goal..or you can make the game more challenging. I really love that you pay once and have access to all you need to finish the game when almost all match 3 games get to a point you have to buy a package to get more lives or tools needed and become the most expensive games in history! I’m disappointed bf released this as our Thursday game as I was looking forward to another fun puzzle/ho adventure plus I’ve already played this. If anyone has any suggestions on new games out there please share! Much thanks to Kim twilight and KdBoots for their awesome reviews and updates on new games coming out. I always read your reviews! Five-bn told me they’d be making an announcement early May to release the new Darkness and Flame on iOS/iPad by late May but still nothing! Thanks again! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Freezing *2025-03-12, version 1.0.0* It’s a good game but it need to be fixed I can’t get past level 1-3 it’s freezing and I have paid for it I want a refund if it’s not fixed ### 5/5 — Great Game *2025-02-24, version 1.0.0* Still enjoy after several years. So it was worth buying.Relaxing in relax mode and fun in timed mode. ### 5/5 — Love this game *2023-10-27, version 1.0.0* Very relaxing. No, ads, videos or the need to buy game tokens every 5 minutes. Just fun with no pressures. Best game on the market today! ### 5/5 — Wish there were more levels… *2022-01-21, version 1.0.0* Love this game as it has a relaxed or a timed mode. Good for me as I find it difficult playing timed games. Lovely selection of levels. Suitable for all ages and skill levels. But please can we have more levels! ### 5/5 — Fun *2021-07-25, version 1.0.0* This is a fun game ### 5/5 — Great little game! *2020-07-02, version 1.0.0* I’m thoroughly enjoying this game, a big 👍 to the designers, I like playing match 3 games it relieves the tension when trying to work away with the bigger games. Highly recommend this one, I don’t play those where you’re forever having to buy items so you can keep playing. ### 5/5 — Sjc *2020-01-26, version 1.0.0* I like the game but I had to purchase it twice because the already bought function has not work on either of these artifact games. ### 5/5 — Bad game *2019-12-12, version 1.0.0* Won’t let you replay the game. It would have been fun if I could replay more than 1x ### 5/5 — Great Game *2019-10-04, version 1.0.0* Just enough different to make it fun. Thanks! ### 5/5 — Un bon classique *2019-09-19, version 1.0.0* Moi je le joue en boucle, ça me détend car pas prise de tête!
