Yes Big Fish, we grow weary of the spooky games. Give us more this please! ### 3/5 — Okay *2016-10-12, version 1.0.0* The game is ok- too long conversations not enough action. Also- Why do IPad games show up on the Big Fish app. when you only choose I-Phone?? There are too many new IPad games versus iphone & it's getting aggravating. The iPhone games have gotten just as expensive. This game is not worth the $6.99 price I paid for it. Buy on sale only! ### 3/5 — Had High Hopes But... *2016-10-12, version 1.0.0* Was so delighted to have a different story than the usual. Unfortunately I found the game difficult to follow. I custom set my games with no sparkles, so that may have been one problem for me only. Loved that the mini games were new/different but could not complete many of them. I understood the objectives but could not execute moves. Had to skip many. That reduced my enjoyment of the game considerably. Agree with others, too much dialogue, not enough play. Did not bother with the bonus game. Picture me disappointed. ### 3/5 — Beyond: Light Advent by LynxMinx *2016-10-12, version 1.0.0* Not my cup of tea! I will admit the graphics and cinematic effects were incredible but I didn't really understand the story much and I am not a sci-fi buff. The game seemed short, even with bonus adventure. You could customize settings. Loading was instantaneous and at each location you collect a rocket ship. The diary and map were located outside the game in the menu section, a major inconvenience, and most of the time if you didn't have enough "blinks" you couldn't teleport anyway, so I didn't see the sense there! Inventory was labeled and interactive and there were complex items to assemble. The HO scenes had morphing objects and there was a decent variation. There was a variety of puzzles/ games with everything from boring rotational stuff, to codes to games of skill or dexterity. There was not a ton to do at each location, and I found that there was way too much dialogue for my taste! I usually love games from Mad Head but not this one. I just felt out of my element and didn't really love it. It also seemed not to flow well, although I can't say it was horribly glitchy. Hopefully the next few games are better. I am beginning to wonder if I am burned out on these games or the games really weren't that great! At least no rats, right Dracyy? Lynxie sends ❤️💋😘 to the DTE! ### 4/5 — Very enjoyable *2016-10-11, version 1.0.0* I usually go with the mystery adventure type game. This was a nice variation on that. Well done. ### 3/5 — Unique concept, glitchy controls *2016-10-11, version 1.0.0* A lot of instructions didn't work for mini-games. I had to keep pressing the "?" button before instructions finally showed up. Touch screen did not respond in some other minigames too so I had to skip them. Nice graphics and variety of scenes though, and game got more interesting as it went on. Diner and movie set scenes were impressive. ### 4/5 — Mixed feeling on this one but try ADAM WOLF by MADHEAD! *2016-10-11, version 1.0.0* It was ok but not great. I understand the mixed reviews on this one. I don't mind having allot of dialog as I enjoy the story as much as the game play in these games but felt the puzzles lacked direction leaving me feeling lost and frustrated. I have to mention that MAD HEAD GAMES put out a new game in this genre without going thru big fish and it's fantastic! I couldn't put it and literally played it all the way thru for hours! It's called ADAM WOLF. you must try this game! It's different than others but in a good way! I can't wait for the second episode to be released! Find it and play it! ### 3/5 — It Gets Better *2016-10-09, version 1.0.0* It is long which turned out to be a plus because it seemed to get better. Very different...disjointed story and graphics. Crystals? Cowboys? Robots? Some clever HOPs and puzzles but not all by any means. WAY too much text and phone calls. We want to play not read!!! Also if I watch one more screwdriver untwist a screw I'll lose my mind. This is original and creative but I wish writers would remember that we want to solve puzzles and not watch videos. ### 4/5 — Beyond *2016-10-09, version 1.0.0* WOW!! I so enjoyed playing...loved the approach to the story line & hidden objects! ### 5/5 — Buy It! Do It Now! *2016-10-09, version 1.0.0* S/O to Izzyoc! I like all your recommendations for other games to try!! Thank you! Looking forward too more of your suggestions. Keep 'em coming!! Mad Head Games you rock! Liked the concept, very different from most HOS games, great graphics, and more interactive than most. ### 5/5 — Light Advent *2016-10-08, version 1.0.0* Beautiful graphics and great story line. I have not gone very far but so far I am enjoying this game from a developer I was not familiar with. Better than the tired games Big Fish has been releasing lately. ### 5/5 — Outstanding!!! *2016-10-08, version 1.0.0* Mad Head games never disappoints - Phenomenal graphics, unique & interesting storyline. Loving the characters, which are very believable. The storyline really draws you in and you become part of it. Hidden object scenes and puzzles are different and fun. So much to see, absorb and sort out. A real winner for me. Thank you, Big Fish & developers!

So as usual BFG Inc infested the game with ads. I dont tolerate when apps that i have bought show ANY type of ads. ### 1/5 — Beyond: Light advent *2016-10-14, version 1.0.0* Waste of $6.99. ### 1/5 — Garbage! *2016-10-11, version 1.0.0* Save your money! Don't buy this garbage game! Wish I hadn't believed Draccy's review! Way too much idiotic conversation, and mouths don't even move! What's with having to go to the Menu to use the Memory Bracelet?! Too much extraneous distractions in every scene that aren't relevant to the story. The so called sound effects and music are very annoying and don't go with an outer space theme at all. The radio is especially annoying and unnecessary. These are just a few of the many problems, and I'm only starting chapter three! My recommendation ...DONT BUY IT! Just finished the game....FINALLY! It's BEYOND, alright....BEYOND STUPID! I could hardly wait for it to end! Didn't even bother with the bonus game! I say again.....DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS GARBAGE! ### 1/5 — Don't buy this one 👎 *2016-10-08, version 1.0.0* I'm so sad this game was so bad. I really wanted it to be good...it looked interesting... But unfortunately, it was painfully slow, very boring with simplistic mini games, and tons of dialog....ugh ..... you can't even make it go faster.... I didn't even do the bonus game - it was that bad.... ### 1/5 — Don't buy *2016-10-07, version 1.0.0* Mostly video. The games are very easy. Poor storyline. I have spent most of my time waiting for the characters to quit talking. ### 2/5 — Great story gets a 4. , Glitches -2 *2018-11-18, version 1.0.0* I really enjoy these kind of games but many of them have issues that give me a headache. This one has a unique story which makes it very fun. Except for the many tasks which require multiple attempts to make the correct answer take. The glitches along with the gear visual and fail sound are nauseating after dozens of attempts to perform a task. I generally quite your games that do this , I kept on with this game because of the strong story line. I know you can make a smoother experience. Cadenza Music Betrayal and Death keeps me hoping. Ps please get rid of gears and boing sounds. Ugh! ### 2/5 — No that great *2016-10-11, version 1.0.0* Nice graphics but this game is tedious with all the dialogue and nagging to rate it. I'd pass on this one. ### 2/5 — Not even worth the sale price *2016-10-09, version 1.0.0* Cut-away scenes take up 2/3 of the game! The mini puzzles aren't intuitive. The "instructions" tell you what you're supposed to do, but not how. Was I supposed to steer the motorcycle? How? On a positive note, the HO scenes are challenging. The story is even good. The graphics are just okay. But those cut-away scenes are just too long. ### 3/5 — Eh ..... *2023-07-27* For the most part, I have enjoyed most all Mad Head games I've played. In fact, I'm really sorry they aren't making mobile games anymore. And I'm also sorry to say that this is one of my least favorite. I found it particularly aggravating in certain places, not least of which was the "hmm ... what can I do with this?" or "hmm ... what can I do here?" We need a little bit more guidance than that, and I found myself using the hint button way more than I wanted to. Given a chance to make a couple more games in this title, MH probably would've gotten to a place where it was as smooth and fun as many others. But the aggravation on this one outweighed the enjoyment. UPDATE: Played this again, just to see if I hated it as much as before and yes, I did. It could have been such a good game if you hadn’t fired all the people who write up the directions — that “what should I do here’ business is just a waste of everybody’s time — like I said, pure aggravation. ### 3/5 — Eh ..... *2022-12-09, version 1.0.0* For the most part, I have enjoyed most all Mad Head games I've played.

It may not be everyone’s cuppa tea, but I thoroughly enjoy the ‘50’s Creature Feature nostalgia, the unique puzzles, and HOG’s that take fracturing/combining to a whole new level. The voice work is top-notch, and collectibles and morphers are easy - especially with the free BF app/guide. My only complaint?: I’ve yet to understand the avarice that prevents a multi-billion dollar company like Apple from allowing Big Fish game club members from applying Club Credits to AppStore purchases. Oh well, Apple needs to make money somehow, right? And he who dies with the most toys wins. ### 5/5 — Wonderful! *2016-10-29, version 1.0.0* I normally hate the storylines but this was interesting. Great graphics, very challenging games and quite different from 90% of what's out there. ### 5/5 — Just as good as the desktop version *2016-10-18, version 1.0.0* Simple. Same as the version on my Mac. ### 5/5 — Fantastic, original and unique *2016-10-16, version 1.0.0* The story line is what makes this game so fantastic. It is so easy to suspend disbelief it's like participating in a movie. The mini-games are so-so, but that's a personal bias. I hate arcade style games and some of the puzzles are quite simple; guessing and matching. But others are interesting and challenging. I. Have to admit that I was so into the plot that I skipped a couple of puzzles to get back to the story! This was great. Can't wait for the sequel. Please say there will be a sequel (Did I just write THAT?) ### 5/5 — light advent *2016-10-13, version 1.0.0* great great great , unique storyline, the puzzles are fun and not very easy or hard, you should open your eyes for morphing objects in HOPs and collect rocket ships there's no glitch for me and mad head games never disappoint me l enjoyed this game and can't wait to see more from mad head games ### 5/5 — Beyond Light Advent *2016-10-13, version 1.0.0* The best game ever!!! I love this game! Would Love to see more like this one. Such a change from most of the games that's out there. ### 5/5 — Loved it! *2016-10-11, version 1.0.0* Great game! When's the next one coming out? Puzzles need more explain action but overall good buy and fun. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2016-10-09, version 1.0.0* Thought I would try this HO game because of the price. I was hugely surprised. One of the BEST games I have played in a long time. Enjoy! ### 5/5 — Incredible game and story *2016-10-09, version 1.0.0* I bought this game thinking it was just a normal game but oh my gosh, it was incredible! Really enjoyed it and will have to play all over again. That's something I never do! Buy this game, you will love it! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
