### 4/5 — Seems good so far

*2023-06-16*

Just started and looks interesting, time will tell

### 4/5 — Pretty good game

*2019-12-05, version 1.0*

It was kind of tough but enjoyable. Not impossibly hard. I like that it doesn’t give you a million clues at once so that it becomes overwhelming. Graphics are better than a lot of the escape games.

### 4/5 — Great

*2017-03-21, version 1.0*

Makes you think.  Good game.

### 4/5 — Review

*2017-03-15, version 1.0*

Almost to the end and can't figure out which way the statues go so I'm gonna cheat with a walk through.

### 4/5 — Pretty Hard

*2017-02-23, version 1.0*

Takes time to figure each clue. I'm stuck so I need to give a review to get a pass. Hard!

### 4/5 — Ok, but won't pause

*2017-02-23, version 1.0*

An ok, quickie escape room game. My greatest frustration is that it won't pause the game play and then return to where I left it.  It restarts each time. Quite frustrating. Good thing it's a fast play.

### 4/5 — Can you escape 1

*2017-01-10, version 1.0*

Just stared seems good I love this type of game

### 4/5 — A better game

*2016-12-30, version 1.0*

This one is not easy. A walk through would help at times. On the whole I enjoy it though.

### 4/5 — So far So Good

I've just started the puzzle but I like the challenge

### 4/5 — Tough but addicting!

*2016-10-31, version 1.0*

This is one of the harder ones I have done. But that fact alone makes it a challenge. Looking forward to more!

### 4/5 — Great way to pass the time

### 2/5 — Hard game

*2016-08-17, version 1.0*

Hard game. My kids want to play but can't understand how it work

### 3/5 — Too dark to see clues

*2021-05-25, version 1.0*

Graphics are very dark with so much black makes it difficult to see any details. Ten minutes in and all intuitive clues are done then you are stuck.

### 3/5 — Last one

*2020-10-16, version 1.0*

Just need this to finish

### 3/5 — Pretty Good Game

*2017-02-14, version 1.0*

Got stuck a little, need a clue. Wish there were subtle clues rather than an entire walk through

### 3/5 — Sun Fun

Challenging so far, not too easy! Slow starting out, but picks up.

*2016-11-20, version 1.0*

Lots of rooms and lots of thinking

*2016-08-03, version 1.0*

A nice change from the same old escape styles

### 3/5 — Its ok

*2016-07-31, version 1.0*

It's an alright game. Not every puzzle made sense. Needed a walk through to help with last part.

### 3/5 — Pretty hard game

*2016-07-31, version 1.0*

I have not gotten very far so I am hoping it gets more intuitive.
