### 5/5 — Great storyline

*2026-08-15, version 3.0*

Heaps of fun, hard enough to make you think. Video clues are an excellent idea.

### 5/5 — Amazing as all ways

*2026-07-26*

Plz bring new games as soon as possible.

### 3/5 — Decent game….but….

*2025-10-08, version 3.0*

I bought this game as it was suggested that these games are similar to Fire Maple games. While the graphics are similar; that is where it ends.  Confusing puzzles where clues don’t match up and screens with no indication that there may be something there.  I will give it points for including a fast travel system tho.  If you are like me and waiting for the next Fire Maple game
To come out, this may be your cup of tea - as confusing as it may be.

### 5/5 — Great for the mind!

*2025-08-21, version 3.0*

It relaxes, helps memory, exercises thinking, all without stress. Because although the puzzles are very reasonable it helps you along the way if you get stuck, with small hints, or videos if you don’t quite understand. And then there’s the reasonable price… need I say more?

### 5/5 — Blackthorn castle

*2025-08-03, version 3.0*

Just finished the game omg the graphics are amazing.
What’s next?.

### 5/5 — Love the puzzles

*2025-07-30, version 3.0*

I haven’t played all of these games but i will so much fun. I would get the bundle as it is cheaper than purchasing each game. Worth the cost. Cheers

### 5/5 — Black horn

*2025-07-08, version 3.0*

The 2 best sentaxiti game (second to the first one)

### 5/5 — Delightful Wander Through Magical World

*2025-05-02, version 3.0*

Very relaxing to explore medieval world with soothing music, beautiful scenes, and many clues to find and puzzles to solve. I liked the first Blackthorn Castle as well.

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2025-04-30, version 3.0*

I thought that the first Mystery of Blackthorn Castle part one was great. The puzzles were fantastic and making it easy to go from one place to another was awesome! But part two was, OMG fantastic! I so thoroughly enjoyed it. I love everything about it.

### 2/5 — Not great

*2025-03-14, version 3.0*

This was not as good as the first one. Some of the clues were complete nonsense and the only way to progress was to pay the $1 to get access to the video clues or search it online yourself. I’m all for a good challenge but these were not well thought out and the story line was kind of boring. It’s not a terrible way to pass the time but there are better puzzle games out there!
