### 4/5 — Light advent

*2021-11-09, version 1.0.0*

Found the story line a bit different, interesting , couldn’t do a lot of the mini games, great value with the deal, half price. Only half way through, still a way to go. I’m a 74 year young person, love these sorts of games

### 4/5 — Fresh and engaging

*2021-11-07, version 1.0.0*

I am a tad jaded when it comes to these type of games. This one was pleasantly surprising. I even watched all the scenes without skipping.  Defo caught my attention. Thumbs up from me👍🏼

### 4/5 — A refreshing change

*2021-11-06, version 1.0.0*

This game was a real refreshing change from most of the usual HOP based games, where you just end up using one symbol to open one thing, which gives you another symbol to put somewhere else and on and on …….  There was a half decent script with believable characters. Only the fact that it was a little clunky on the iPad made me give it 4 instead of 5.

### 3/5 — Good Game

*2021-05-02, version 1.0.0*

Good game but wish it was a trial

### 4/5 — Enjoyable game

*2020-11-19*

The only thing I would ask is for the developer to give better info in the text boxes. Asking what can I do here is not helpful. You might as well delete the text boxes.

### 4/5 — Ok at a discount

*2020-11-17, version 1.0.0*

Lots of interesting game play but only average visual quality and too much video. Good value as a deal.

### 3/5 — Kinda all over the place

*2018-04-26*

I was ready and glad when it was over

### 5/5 — Super game

*2017-04-01, version 1.0.0*

Lots of fun

### 5/5 — Like a sci-fi classic

*2017-03-02*

Good voice acting, good story line. Wasn't sure I'd like it at first (I was afraid it was going to be one of those, "Let's pretend we're flying an alien spacecraft"--it isn't.) It's heartwarming and a welcome break from magical games, the main characters aren't constantly concerned with "Destiny!" 
I liked the visuals, they have a "clean" look to them. 

Kind of quirky, don't know how else to explain it--the puzzles aren't the same old, same old. (There are no random tuning forks lying around that you use to break a random glass item, for example. An annoying cliche in current games that I'm pretty sure wouldn't work unless the fork was tailored for the specific item you want to break, and how likely is it that you'd find THAT lying around?  But I digress.) 

Kind of an homage to 50s sci-fi movies.

### 4/5 — Very pretty but not hard

*2016-12-22*

Gorgeous. 
Some 'puzzles' all you have to do is tap a bunch.

### 5/5 — Awesome puzzles and great homage to old school Sci-fi

*2016-12-10*

I was so happy to have found this game. It is definitely rare to find a sci-fi themed hidden object game.  So in terms of what it gets right and really what led to my score - the puzzles. They were unique, challenging and enjoyable. It was a great balance of different types and varying skills. The story is old school and borders on cliche but somehow manages to serve more as an homage to sci-fi of past that a trite redo.
One issue to mention - while it was updated recently the game definitely still has the look of older games. It does lack the crispness you see in more modern graphics. 
Again I think the other positives made up for this lapse.

### 1/5 — Another No purchase found

*2023-08-14, version 1.0.0*

Second one today! I have the receipt for this game on 5th November 2021. It now won’t let me play. Loads of my big fish games now unplayable and nobody will sort it out. Please don’t say click on “ already purchased”, I’ve done that, I’m not stupid just very cross.

### 1/5 — Beyond: Life Advent

*2023-01-19, version 1.0.0*

I’ve quit buying games because they fragment and pixelate so I can’t play them. I have a new iPad so it shouldn’t be a problem.

### 1/5 — Light adventure beyond

*2021-11-07*

Can’t get past first challenge of driving motorcycle. iPad not acknowledging the arrow to change directions.  And I can’t skip.  Sad, this is not the first time I have had to stop game due to game not recognizing touch screen.  Wish I could get refund but apple didn’t give me an order number.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-11-06*

I had high hopes for this game with the opening segment and the graphics.  That didn’t last long. It has this big scene but you only get one item.  Many conversations and then one item.  Very boring.  I would not recommend. No challenge whatsoever.  I can’t even bring myself to finish it.

### 1/5 — Little less talk and more action

*2018-04-26*

I am surprised by the reviews of this game. I found it to be more of a boring story than a game. Each scene has a long unnecessary dialogue. I was begging for stuff to do other than tapping my screen to get through the story. Puzzles were fair at best and HO seemed to be the same over and over. The most annoying part of this game was you had to tap all over the screen to find out what to do next and all it would say is “what should I do here?”. Map was useless because it wouldn’t let you jump to another location without a charged “blink”. Save your money, this one isn’t worth it!!!

### 1/5 — Please explain the math

*2018-04-25, version 1.0.0*

65% off is false advertising.... 40% off is 3.99 65% off should be 1.99.. 55% off is 2.99.. who does your math and stop lying.....

### 1/5 — Beyond light

*2017-04-05, version 1.0.0*

They say I need to change my profile cause I have played the game already, but when I hit ok, they don't put anything up so I can change it. I think I bought a dud-6.99$-dud!

### 1/5 — Absolutely chronic

*2016-11-21, version 1.0.0*

Awful game with annoying characters. Wish I hadn't bothered.

### 2/5 — Can I Get My Money Back?

*2021-11-20*

I did not like this game at all. Mini games were confusing and, in some cases, unsolvable. Game does not allow player to play ahead without help. Player must use ‘hint’ feature to activate solutions. Couldn’t wait till I got through it.

### 2/5 — Space cadet by ag née man

*2019-01-16, version 1.0.0*

Why does no one open their mouths when they speak ? 
Very weird skip this one

### 5/5 — Great game

*2024-10-24, version 1.0.0*

Love this game the graphics are good and the story line is exciting too

### 5/5 — Great game

*2024-05-16*

I really enjoyed this one. It’s a great (now a throwback) game from Mad Head. They really now how to make a game fun. I love playing these older games and wish there were more.

### 5/5 — Captivating Music

*2023-03-11*

This game has it all, love, adventure, thrill, but above all, it has some of the most beautiful music I have heard. I highly recommend paying the few $ the developers are asking for. It is worth far more!

### 5/5 — Amazing storyline!!!

*2023-02-14*

I love sci-fi adventure games and this did not disappoint. Completely original, with great effects (the movie set was particularly clever) and beautiful graphics throughout

### 5/5 — Big fish

*2023-02-07, version 1.0.0*

I love it

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2021-11-07, version 1.0.0*

Have played many of these type of games and this is one of the best.  The story and puzzles are original and varied.  A real pleasure to play!

### 5/5 — Finally! A sci-fi theme!

*2021-09-01, version 1.0.0*

I don’t know about you, but I’m not a 14 year old girl who gets into all of this princess, save the kingdom nonsense. I’m looking for more cyberpunk themes as well. But I feel the market is heavily dominated by women so you’re going to have cheesy romance, prince/princess, king/queen fantasy junk.It’s way too tired and overdone. It would be nice to see a developer venture out into this territory to try to attract more men or sci-fi/cyberpunk fans.

### 5/5 — Beautiful graphics

*2021-01-30*

Love this game!  I just wish it was longer or that there was a sequel.  Super fun and relaxing.  Great story line.  I wish all the HOP games were this awesome.

### 5/5 — Old game

*2017-10-24*

I bought this game ages ago. Why are you trying to charge me again?

### 5/5 — Worth your time

*2017-09-05*

If you like a touch of science fiction, this is a very good game. Interesting story. I thought I had bought this on a Labor Day sale, only to find out after the trial was over that I must pay full price. My fault... I took too long. However, when the next sale drives by, I'll catch this game on that one. It was a lot of fun. Quite innovative.
