### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-01-24, version 1.1.17*

I have never had a problem with this game. It’s a great game if you take your time and don’t try to rush it.

### 5/5 — Addicted

*2023-06-20*

I am addicted to all these games.. I went ahead and bought all of them! The intricate detail pertaining to each game is persisive in detail.. The graphics are amazing! Each games storyline keeps me intrigued and wanting more!

### 1/5 — Does NOT pay out your Coin Purchases

*2023-01-30, version 1.1.17*

The game was ok as a game, but the two times I purchased Coins I never received them!! Rip Off!!

### 1/5 — Glitch

*2022-04-22, version 1.1.17*

I went to the shop to buy something.  Didn’t have enough gold purchased gold pieces and the game now won’t let me continue.  I keep pressing the back buttons nothing happens.  I can’t leave the shop.  Waste of my money and time.

### 1/5 — Con

*2022-04-10, version 1.1.17*

Paid for the full version but still being asked to pay for hints.

### 5/5 — Хорошая игра но есть одно но

*2022-03-03, version 1.1.17*

Игра хорошая но есть жирный минут...За вторую часть(2 том)надо платить деньги а у меня таких денег нету.Можете сделать игру бесплатной?Игра хороша и с головой окунает в сюжет.Будте добры сделайте игру бесплатной🙏🏻.

### 5/5 — Far Surpassed Expectations

*2021-11-29*

I honestly thought after downloading this game would be pretty low quality. Like those terrible free timed H.O. game apps (won’t name any names) lol. But instead I was very pleasantly surprised! It can get slow at times, and I still don’t know what the coins are for, since I have been able to progress without them which is a good thing. But after the free trial ended I had no problem paying the fair $2 price for full game, and hints are free:) I do recommend! 
Edit: The coins are needed to progress by buying items from the local shop owner, which I have collected plenty of by the first time I’ve needed them by optional HOPuzzles. More fair than many other HO games I’ve played.

### 3/5 — Милана

*2021-01-19, version 1.1.17*

Почему дальше платно всё и причём очень дорого.

### 4/5 — Ganz gut

*2019-10-19, version 1.1.17*

Eigentlich ein richtig gutes Spiel aber es war viel zu schnell durchgespielt (an einem Abend)

### 5/5 — Отлично.

*2019-06-30, version 1.1.17*

Отличная игрушка. В лучших традициях серии Я ищу. Купил и ни секунды не пожалел. Нет гадкой энергии для игры и прочих донатовских приблуд. Золотые монетки добываются очень легко.  Купил сразу после прохождения Контракта с Дьяволом. Обе игры великолепны.
