### 3/5 — Still can’t access inventory

*2024-05-15, version 1.0.1*

Can’t play game without inventory.

### 3/5 — Bug…

*2023-07-30*

Finished the main game, it was great! Nothing to complain about. I went on to play the bonus chapter and its all black. I can hear everything but the picture is completely black. I tried tapping ahead to see if I got into another room if it would be black but I don’t know if I’ve moved or not.. just black.. was looking forward to it:( I’ll change my review once fixed
UPDATE
I managed to get past the black screen by going into the options and everything else, went back out of the game, closed it, came back, and it then worked.. that is for a few minutes until I got to a puzzle that I was having a rough time so I left it for later. Went back to do it and all of my data has been erased. Won’t let me start at the bonus chapter and wants me to start from the very beginning.. so unfortunately I cannot change my rating. Still 3 stars because it’s a fabulous game..when it works.

**Developer response:** Hello! We are extremely sorry to hear this. We will investigate this issue and check if there are any problems on our end that might've caused it.

### 3/5 — Inventory

*2023-01-11, version 1.0.1*

The game seems interesting, but I haven’t been able to get far because the inventory bar keeps disappearing and I can’t get it back

### 2/5 — 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

*2022-10-18, version 1.0.1*

Got stuck, deleted for now.

### 2/5 — Needs fixing

*2022-09-12, version 1.0.1*

I was really enjoying this game until the inventory keeps disappearing, if you press it you are just taken back to previous scenes so can no longer play it which is extremely disappointing.

### 3/5 — Help!

*2022-08-28, version 1.0.1*

Then gamed won’t let me access my inventory. I have tried everything. Can you help?

### 3/5 — Fun until…

*2022-07-26, version 1.0.1*

I was really enjoying the game until the inventory bar at the bottom disappears when I pick an item up. I’ve tried everything to “pull” it back up with no luck. Usually I end up moving backwards instead of getting my inventory boxes back. It seems the only way to go forward is to restart the program all together but once I pick up a new item it disappears again. All I see is the word “inventory” but when I try to tap or pull it up I just move backwards. I can’t move forward unless I restart the program, which is time consuming and truly a pain in the butt! Please look into this. Thank you.

### 4/5 — Inventory

*2022-04-21*

I’m loving the game so far,  almost done it actually.  I generally have no complaints about the gameplay or sound, HOWEVER, it’d be great if the inventory display would stop hiding every time a new item gets added to my inventory that I need to use. It started doing this and every time it does I have to exit out of the game and relaunch it, if there’s a way to fix this I would love to know how. Other than that, I think the game has a well written story and wonderful mind games!

**Developer response:** Hello! Thank you so much for the review and letting us know about the issue. We will look into this issue!

### 2/5 — Too small

*2022-03-22, version 1.0.1*

The game is compressed things are so tiny in the lower bar

### 4/5 — Pretty Good

*2022-03-15*

Finished the game before writing this. Please remember we are playing on mobile, so our screens might be pretty small. It would be better to have a button to leave a scene or puzzle and not having the game respond to a click just above the inventory. It was really annoying to exit a puzzle when I was just trying to find something at the bottom of the screen. I play on a new iPad with no home button, so dragging stuff from the inventory meant that I was continually switching to another app. Once again, allowing us to select something in inventory and then click in the scene would avoid this issue.
Lastly, we need more help with the last puzzle. I watched a video and even the person making the walkthrough failed the last puzzle. In my case I accidentally hit the screen during the introduction so I had no clues what the correct answers would be. Even if I had seen all of the introduction, I doubt that would have helped. An in-game journal of the introduction and then the events so far would be much more helpful.

**Developer response:** Hello! Thank you so much for the feedback. We understand your complaint and will definitely think of optimizing our games for all the devices in the future! 
We'll also take a look at the last puzzle of the game, thank you for letting us know!

### 5/5 — Really liked it.

### 1/5 — Same inventory problem a year later.

*2023-09-27, version 1.0.1*

Developer was made aware of this game-halting issue a year ago by two separate players, and they still have not corrected it. I downloaded this app last week and continue to lose access to my inventory after just a couple of minutes of playing. The only fix is to completely restart the app. When 2 of the 21 reviews (now 3 of 22) complain of this same problem, I think it warrants research into a solution. 

Story might be nice, but other issues with gameplay, like the choice to require dragging inventory items to places in scene to use them (most other games like this I’ve played simply allowed tap to select item to use, then tap to select where to use it). This choice causes conflict with the ability to drag up on iPhone for quick access to phone functions. After dismissing that function screen, the game flashes black for a moment, making you wait to retry the item.

### 1/5 — Inventory keeps disappearing!!

*2022-10-17, version 1.0.1*

Would be a great game IF the INVENTORY didn’t keep disappearing off screen 🤯😡 I have been playing for 15 min and I have rebooted 4 times so far to reset the onscreen inventory but it still keeps going away leaving just the word “Inventory” at the bottom! Nothing I do,including tapping on the word or checking the MENU will make it appear again. I can’t be bothered with this game if it keeps doing this!

### 1/5 — Нет русского языка

*2022-05-19, version 1.0.1*

Одна звезда так как нет русского языка!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Story makes no sense

*2022-04-13, version 1.0.1*

Much todo about nothing!

### 1/5 — Why???

*2022-03-13, version 1.0.1*

Can you please just give us the option to buy the game? It’s ridiculous we’re loyal customers and it’s always about the money. I hope you reconsider and give us an option to buy or I won’t be playing your games anymore! Loyal customer

### 1/5 — Needs improvement

*2022-03-11, version 1.0.1*

Need money to buy hints because there is no explanation on how your trapped or what’s next. 👎🏼

### 1/5 — Really??

*2022-03-08, version 1.0.1*

Downloaded the F2P. A minute and half in was already out of time. You expect people to enjoy this game when they can’t even get anywhere in 2 minutes? Please! How about F2P. Like the name suggests

### 1/5 — F2P

*2022-03-06, version 1.0.0*

So I was wondering if you could explain the benefits of f2p as opposed to a one time game unlock.

### 1/5 — Please just let us pay once

*2022-03-06, version 1.0.0*

Again, deleting because I have no patience for the coin/energy thing.  Please just let us pay the unlock fee!

### 2/5 — Review

*2024-01-25, version 1.0.1*

The game deletes my data and it starts all over again

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-04-17, version 1.0.1*

Cool concept, easy gameplay, plenty of challenging puzzles. Beautifully done.

### 5/5 — Все круто

*2024-04-07, version 1.0.1*

Игра очень интересная, хоть и на английском

### 5/5 — Really Great Game!

*2023-10-26*

This is one of the best games I’ve played in a long time. I replayed it multiple times to experience different endings, and each ending was very interesting. Please make more of these!

### 5/5 — Loved the game

*2023-05-18, version 1.0.1*

I really loved the storylines in this and was looking forward to playing the 2nd game until you had to purchase it. I am not purchasing any games. Option should be up to person downloading it whether they want to purchase for full access or have the F2P version and deal with the time limits or purchasing coins for hints. Now on the hunt for the next F2P

### 5/5 — Excellent Game

*2022-05-23, version 1.0.1*

Now I appreciate that some people may find this game a bit gruesome in parts but, for me, the technical brilliance and shear enjoyment countermanded any issues associated with the storyline. I prefer these games where you don’t initially pay but could proceed to purchase hints if required. I find these games more challenging and difficult to solve rather than just pressing a help button if a difficulty is met. I cannot speak too highly of this game and look forward to more games of this type. Well done to all those concerned with the production of this game.

### 5/5 — Wow

*2022-05-15, version 1.0.1*

Captivating. Excellent. Multiple endings. Keep these f2p games coming!

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2022-04-17, version 1.0.1*

What is wrong with you people?  Why the bad reviews?  This is a fantastic game. It takes a HOG to the next level. This by far is one of the best F2P games I’ve ever played. I hope the developer listens to the good reviews and releases another.

### 5/5 — Super
