### 4/5 — Нет возможности смотреть видео

*2023-09-11*

Почти всегда не работает кнопка на просмотр видео, а следовательно увеличивать количество опыта и денег.  И проходить комнаты не получается за просмотр видео пока энергия восстанавливается !!!
Это раздражает

### 2/5 — Не дает время на поиск

*2020-05-18*

Вместо положенного времени на поиск дается буквально 5 секунд, потом предлагает использовать сурка/продление на 30 секунд. Если им воспользоваться, играешь 1-2 секунды(.

### 2/5 — Ad Causes Game to Lock Up, Spelling is Poor

*2019-03-05*

I enjoy this game, but currently, if I view the ad for Final Fantasy XV, A New Empire, after the ad is done, it gives no option to exit back to my actual game. I can download FFXV, which I don’t want, and nothing else. I only view the ads to get extra rewards or enter rooms, so when this happens, I lose the thing I was going for. I think an issue such as this is why I stopped playing some time ago.

Also, please learn to spell ‘lose’ and a few other things. Seeing ‘You will loose’ whatever constantly makes me crazy.

### 3/5 — Friends

*2019-02-22*

Cannot seem to make any friends and there seem to be no contests

### 4/5 — Connie

*2019-01-07*

I can’t get my game to open up. It just goes to a black screen. I’ve turned my iPad off and restarted it. That usually fixes a problem like this. But it didn’t . Please help I love to play the game!!

### 3/5 — Castle Secrets : Hidden objects

*2018-11-03*

Must admit I have only just started playing this game so it is early days I suppose, but all the videos are driving me mad! I have never known a game have so many videos in it and I know you don’t have to watch them but why do they have to be there, why can’t the game just flow? The other thing I’m struggling with are the ‘night’ scenes. I know it’s down to me but I can’t seem to move the illuminated bit around properly to find the items - any tips? 
Will I carry on playing it? Time will tell!!! These are the reasons I have only given the game 3 stars so far. Are there any instructions for this at all? Don’t have a clue what I’m doing so need some help!! Do the developers ever respond to these reviews?

### 4/5 — Ad colony ads

*2018-07-12*

They freeze my game and I have to reboot all the time. Other ads don’t seem to do that. I can’t find anyplace except for here to write a comment. Otherwise it’s a fun game

### 4/5 — Исправьте

*2018-05-21*

При желании посмотреть видео для прохождения комнат или в пещере очень часто не реагирует вообще! Бесииииттт!!! Исправьте пожалуйста! И дело не в интернете!

### 2/5 — Recent updates

*2017-12-09*

Guys,
I was so happy when I started playing this game as an alternative from gardens of time ...
However in the recent past... you guys keep raising the amount of gold it takes to get one item for a collection by at least three times each , then decrease only to increase again the amount of silver it costs to play a scene in the airship... and on top of that add no new missions in the last 6 months ... I’ve had the same “collection” missions that I completed on my own before they even started no other quests ..
That s ridiculous it makes not even want to play it anymore please change either the amount of collection items needed or the price of each... 
Thank you

**Developer response:** Thank you!

### 1/5 — Cheat you out bonuses from ads.Locks up On permanent bonus

*2026-03-14, version 3.9.0*

No joke, I spend more time talking on watch waiting for it to finally work and I do on the ad itself. Ads will constantly lock up Since most of this stuff is closed, the screen lose the opportunity you watch the ad it locks up guess what you don’t get. Right now the ad worked for days. I don’t mind watching it if I get what it is, it says I’m supposed to. but I guess that’s what happens when you plan a paid win and you’re too poor to do nothing but watch the ads. Don’t do the waste of time lol

### 1/5 — Плохая игра

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work iPhone 6s

Requirements say it works on my phone, but it locks up on opening scene.

### 1/5 — Постоянные глюки

*2018-09-13*

При входе в пещеру и нажатии воскреснуть за рекламу зависает и не происходит ничего. Только перезагрузка помогает. В комнатах при нажатии на верный предмет забирает 10 секунд ( пример, солдатик)

### 1/5 — Вылетает

### 1/5 — Кпаес

*2018-01-29*

Не открывается игра

### 1/5 — Ruined it

*2017-03-02, version 3.4.3*

I was really enjoying this game until rooms got locked until u killed a character. Thats an interesting twist to the game if it wasnt so impossible to kill the character. U have to kill 10 of that character in 24hrs to unlock the room, if u only kill 3 in 24hrs it resets back to 10. Iv used all of my energy trying to find the right weapon to no avail, theres no tools to help, u cant gift the tools to help and the gold it costs is ridiculous... cost me £4.99 to kill 3!!! Its completely impossible to unlock the rooms resulting in me loosing interest in the game
