### 4/5 — Great story but a couple of bugs

*2026-05-06*

I really enjoyed this game I like that combat, story, and out of combat mechanics and content were very flushed out. A couple of the puzzles I struggled with and wish there were more clear clues (like putting the stone plates with the correct statue in Mr. Lewis’ level). 
There were some bugs that did get annoying such as not being able to move the rod after your first fishing attempt in the town center fishing spot and audio repeating itself after you fast forwarded some crafting options.

### 3/5 — Full Screen

*2026-01-07*

Game is great, please just fill the screen.

### 3/5 — Недоработанный порт

*2025-09-13*

Тормозит на планшете который в три - четыре раза мощнее чем NS1, на котором игра идет плавно:) уже не первая игра так у вас работает:/

### 5/5 — Thanks

*2025-09-11*

Respond to problems quickly and solve player needs immediately. I haven't seen such a serious developer for a long time.

### 3/5 — Bookshop bug?

*2025-09-09*

I can’t buy books from the bookshop please consider and fix this

### 4/5 — 戦闘中に止まる？

*2025-09-09*

ドット絵が好きなのとおもしろいと評判を見たことがあるため始めました。

キャラクターのモーションやセリフのユーモアなど面白い点が多いです。
掛け合いが不要であれば早送りもできます。
翻訳の兼ね合いかたまにセリフが画面外にはみ出てますが取りこぼすような情報は無いので雰囲気で何とかなります。
移動の走りのスピードは気になりますが、各クエストでファストトラベルができるため大きく時間が取られることは無いです。
戦闘も割とカジュアルなレベルで攻略できると思います。


【修正してほしい点】
・戦闘中に敵を全員ダウンさせた時にフリーズする
→捕獲できると説明が出てきますが画面右に小さい文字で[圧倒する][総攻撃][キャンセル]と書いてあるのみで、いろんな操作を試しても反応せずゲームが止まります。
ゲームを再起動しても変わらないのでダウンさせない=悪魔の強化不可の状態でプレイしてます。
自分の環境が悪いのかなんなのか分かりませんがどうにかなればうれしいです。

### 5/5 — Lovely game

*2025-09-07*

I enjoyed it so much, I thought it was free all the way through, but nope; so I still want to say it’s worth buying from what I see, but I do wish it were free with updates

### 5/5 — Tô viciada e tá em português

*2025-09-05*

Amei (to jogando no IPad) , o jogo está em português . Ta perfeito. Por mais jogos assim !!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

### 3/5 — Awesome art style but poor performance

*2025-09-03*

One of the best art style game but performance is not good even on iphone 15. The game runs at 30 fps and that too with alot of shutters. Please optimise the game and if possible provide 60 fps too.

### 4/5 — Screen size is small

*2025-08-30*

That’s all. I wish this game fit to the iPad’s screen size. Will patiently wait for an update to this problem, but if it’s not fixed it’s whatever. Great, fun rpg for fans of turn-based games and the Persona series.

### 5/5 — 제압

*2025-08-21*

그니까요 아이폰 제압버튼이없어서 못하는중 ..

### 5/5 — 몬스터 제압 버튼 버그 수정해 주세요

*2025-08-20*

겜넘잼!! 그치만 제압 버튼 없어서 진행할 수가 없어요

### 5/5 — 너무 재밋는데

*2025-08-18*

### 1/5 — Hidden misogyny, not suitable for 13-year-old children

*2026-07-29*

The details of the picture are indeed well done, and both the scene rendering and the texture of light and shadow can be seen to have put in a lot of effort. But the design of female characters is really uncomfortable - overly sexualized and objectified, almost every female appearing is serving the male gaze in the street. Especially for the female characters in the first major level, in the eyes of the planner, do women become exposed in clothing and have pornographic postures after losing their children? She is not a character, but an "object" that has been dressed up.
This tendency can be seen from the promotional images: for the same clothing style, male characters wear tight and muscular dresses, while female characters wear waist skirts, full makeup, and extremely high skin exposure. 
Even female pedestrians randomly refreshed on the roadside are equipped with a full set of makeup and tight fitting dresses, while male pedestrians can wear them normally, casually, and have a sense of life.
This is not a 'style choice', it is a clear gender double standard. The game rating is also not suitable for children under 13 years old, but the problem is not violence or horror. The problem is that it treats women as visual consumers, rather than characters with stories, emotions, and dignity like humans. I hope the production team can seriously reflect on this point. Because they could reply back to this text, says they never realize they were misogynists.

### 1/5 — Broken at present

*2026-06-27*

As others have reported: there is no sound. I'd also add that accessibility is disappointingly poor with very small fonts clearly intended for television screens have not been enlarged with the port to iOS, making them needlessly difficult to read on an iPhone screen. Overall gives the sense of a rushed and careless porting process.

### 1/5 — 13” iPad screen to big for game?

*2026-02-05*

The game is only have the size of the 13 inch iPad screen size. Can’t play like that. Maybe I’ll try again if they update with larger screen size…

### 1/5 — Screen too small, just a demo

*2025-09-12*

Downloaded the game on ipad, screen is the size of a phone. Also, they lied about it being a free game with in-app purchases - the whole game is the in-app purchase. Uninstalling before I even played. Fed up with deceitful developers.

### 1/5 — No sound, sliders don’t work

*2025-07-31*

Must fix please…

**Developer response:** Hi there! We are very sorry that you have experienced this sound issue. We have released a patch fixing the sound issue. Could please download the latest version of the game and retry playing it? 

Best,
Bloomtown Team

### 1/5 — No volume at all!

*2025-07-31*

I have heard really great things about this game and have watched several reviews. I really want to try this game but there is NO volume. In settings you have the option to change the master, voice, and music volume. It doesn’t matter what slider you move or where you move it, it reverts back to 0 upon leaving the settings menu. Please fix so I can purchase your game!!!

**Developer response:** Hi there! We are very sorry that you have experienced this sound issue. We have released a patch fixing the sound issue. Could please download the latest version of the game and retry playing it? 

Best,
Bloomtown Team

### 1/5 — decepcionante

*2025-07-30*

letras muito pequenas pro celular e o jogo está sem som

**Developer response:** Olá! Lamentamos muito que você tenha enfrentado esse problema de som. Lançamos uma atualização que corrige esse erro. Você poderia, por favor, baixar a versão mais recente do jogo e tentar jogá-lo novamente? (Tradução feita com o ChatGPT)

Atenciosamente,
Equipe Bloomtown

### 2/5 — No sound

*2026-05-23*

Hello. I am far into the game. I have paid for the full version and now the sound has stopped working. How can I fix this please. I don’t want to lose all my progress and I want to finish the game.

### 2/5 — Ranger Escape- disappointing end

*2025-09-14*

I'm baffled by this decision. This is just stupid and totally unnecessary. Not even a hall of fame difficulty spike like in the old games. Just totally uncalled for, badly executed and stupid part of an otherwise great game. I'll already died 10x. Will try again and then just quit the game. It's absolutely not worth the time to suddenly trial and error in this kind of game. Especially if you have a controlls like a tank and eternal loading screens. I'm so massively frustrated and disappointed- close to offloading the whole thing.

### 2/5 — “Contract with Lucifer” Stopped Me

*2025-09-08*

Not interested in a storyline like this, even for a roleplaying game. Also found the controls very clunky, frustrating to move around and interact.

### 5/5 — Jogo emocionante

*2026-03-15*

Meu primeiro jogo que joguei no ios, realmente bom. Chorei com ele e me senti apegada nos personagens. Não sou chegada em jogos de luta, mas pela história continuei jogando

### 5/5 — A Story-Driven RPG Worth Buying

*2026-02-25*

I bought the complete version of Bloomtown: A Different Story, and while it’s not a fast-paced action game, it’s perfect for players who enjoy story-driven RPGs with mystery and heart.

### 5/5 — Just buy it!

*2026-01-17*

I can’t thank the developers and the whole team enough to create such an amazing piece of art and storytelling. Strange how video games can help you get through difficult phase and help you understand small and basic things of life that we forget with time. I hope this message goes to the whole team who created this masterpiece. And please do not stop making such amazing games. Thank you & cheers!

### 5/5 — Советую

### 5/5 — The game is great, but it needs full screen mode :)

*2025-12-17*
