### 5/5 — Amazing game omm

*2026-08-04, version 4.1*

I love rusty lake and their games, I’m a very picky person when it comes to games and I just love playing this one because with the other ones I wasn’t as scared as in the chapter cabin. I was so terrified. But I loved all the puzzles

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2026-04-25*

Одна из лучших детективных игрушек на айфон. Прохожу одна, иногда с подругой параллельно (ничуть не хуже). Спасибо за труд)

### 3/5 — МНЕ НЕ ДАЛИ КУБ!!

*2026-02-12, version 4.1*

В конце, когда я собрала картину, мне не дали кубик, а затем все вообще сбросилось!!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

### 5/5 — Best one so far

*2026-01-07, version 4.1*

I have started playing the entire series in order and this is the 5th game I have beat I love how it put the last 4 games into this one and it was so fun to play.

### 4/5 — Phew! What a game

*2025-08-02*

The rusty lake games only seem to get better and better with each release. Hats off to the developers who keep their players on edge. And what’s interesting if you want to win all the achievements, you have to find clue in their other Cube Escape games. The puzzles were not as hard this time, but it was fun nevertheless. 

Love the nod to Twin Peaks, the tv show that inspired this game! Damn good cup of coffee ;)

### 5/5 — Incrível

*2025-05-23*

Eu tô incrédulo com esse jogo, surreal de bom!!!

### 5/5 — Шок

*2025-05-03*

Вот это ДА! Зря я начала играть в 2 ночи. Супер!

### 5/5 — 第四章把我吓一跳！！

*2025-04-20, version 4.1*

锈门永存 The past is never dead, it’s not even past.

### 3/5 — The Chapel has a bug

*2025-04-13, version 4.1*

I couldn’t finish the game because I couldn’t get the upper lower left quadrant to move. I’m using an updated iPhone 16 in case that is helpful. I’ve purchased every one of your games, and often pre-purchased when possible. I hope at some point they update their games not to be buggy again. ♥️

### 5/5 — Очень понравилось

*2025-02-19*

В последней части у меня был стресс😂😂
