Exciting and fun

I like games where I have to be smart this game shows how far you can go with being smart and sneaky. I also like doing all the cool things that I wish I could do if I was cited, keep making more chapters.

Great game

This was a great game and I encourage everyone who has never played this sort of game before or anyone who likes the sort of game to play

Pretty good game but needs a bit of work ... here’s how

Hello,
This is a pretty good game thus far. Like I said in my original piece, the accessability of AirPods is not present. I had to use the earbuds which came with my iPhone instead. Another thing is that although the music’s good, the audio sometimes flickers—that is, it’ll repeat sometimes as if the app’s skipping slightly. Yet another thing, sometimes, the microphone doesn’t pick up my sayings, so I have to say them again after the actors speak their parts. Like that though, the whole speaking and all. Also as I said back in my original review, if VoiceOver were able to be used, it’d be better. This is, of course, not only for me but anyone who has speech difficulties/can’t ennounciate clear enough for the game to recognize. I sure would hate to hear about people with speech difficulties not to play with this app due to them.

BEST GAME EVER

Having trouble playing with headphones

I have trouble playing the game with my JVC headphones.

I guess I wish I wish you guys would upgrade the app to where you would be adaptable with all brands of headphones
