### 3/5 — Нужно немножк пофиксить

*2026-03-20*

На айпад 11 вылетает игра после того, как герой выбирает, куда ему пойти на улице. Причем, неважно, куда именно он идёт: налево или направо — игра всё равно вылетает(((

Очень хочется доиграть, игра крутая

### 4/5 — Game is great, but there is an area for improvement

*2026-02-19*

Please update app so that progress can be shared between apple devices with the same apple id. Thanks

### 4/5 — Игра норм но платная

*2025-10-04*

И об этом ни слова нигде

### 5/5 — Artistique

*2025-06-25*

J’ai beaucoup aimé la difficulté des énigmes, les graphismes sont parfait et je trouve l‘histoire originale et belle. 
Il est vrai que la téléportation aurait été bien mais je comprend aussi ce choix de ne pas la rendre accessible cela nous permet de mieux visiter la maison à chaque quêtes pour les indices.
Bonne expérience de jeu merci

### 5/5 — Трогательная концовка 🥹

*2025-06-23*

В конце плакала вместе в главным персонажем 😭

### 5/5 — Это было потрясающе

*2025-06-23*

Безумно интересная игра, стоящая своих денег. Захватывает с первых секунд, проходила ее до конца залпом, на одном дыхании. Скачивайте – не пожалеете! Первая игра, к которой я захотела написать отзыв

### 5/5 — Отлично!

*2025-06-08*

эту игру создали гении. спасибо, это были лучшие часы

### 5/5 — The best game yet

*2025-05-28, version 1.0.64*

I love every game this studio has made, but this one could be the best one yet. Beautiful and clever, creepy and poignant. 10/10

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-04-12*

Brilliant game. Thoroughly enjoyable. A real plus is the “draw” function to note down visual clues. Very good value for money as always with this company.

### 5/5 — Fun but short game

*2025-03-12*

I had fun, was able to solve each puzzle. Took me a couple hours.

### 4/5 — Un bon jeu !

*2025-02-13*

Un bon jeu d’énigme, ce serait mieux si on pouvait se téléporter grâce à la carte car refaire 3 fois le tour de la maison quand on a des énigmes éloignées comme avec la pile c’est un peu embêtant. J’ai beaucoup aimé le journal sur les expériences du père par contre, certains disent que ça ne les as pas aidé pour les énigmes mais à mon avis ça nous donnait quand même des indices, par exemple on ne pouvait pas forcément savoir à qui donner le chapeau sans ou comment obtenir la fleur de la part de l’oiseau (j’essaie de rester assez vague dans mes explications pour ne pas trop spoil les gens qui ne l’ont pas encore fait). Merci pour ce jeu !

### 5/5 — More !

*2025-01-21*

Brillant, loved the overall ambiance. Nice environment design. Would pay for a sequel.

### 5/5 — Amazing Game!

*2025-01-20*

Beautiful game; evokes emotion and has very fun puzzles that leaves you scratching your head. Worth every penny and isn’t too expensive at all!! Incredible work and kudos to the team; thank you for creating this!

### 5/5 — Это лучшая игра за последние несколько лет!

*2025-01-16*

Игра просто невероятная! Безумно интересная, проработанная! Видно, что разработчики действительно талантливые люди, вложившие много сил. Прошла за 2 дня, играла без остановки. Спасибо за прекрасный проект!🙏🏻❤️

### 5/5 — 黑白手繪風格棒呆

*2025-01-12, version 1.0.64*

喜歡這部的美術風格，音效也配得非常的好。但有一個問題就是密碼有點複雜，要解的謎太多了，要一直在地圖跑來跑去😆 但我很喜歡這個遊戲的佈局，非常的酷！謝謝有地圖的部分，不然真的會迷路😂

### 4/5 — I Like the Game, a bit challenging

*2025-01-11*

It is a fun game. Genre, it’s a puzzle game. Although some parts were a bit frustrating (hard), I did watch a few tutorials. I will say though the drawback being there were times I had to go back to the same areas multiple times. It’s a long game and you will have to revisit the same areas in order to solve the puzzles. You might even miss some clues and realize wow it was right there all along. Going back and forth to one area to the next is kinda annoying. There’s no instant map teleportation.

But I did enjoy the game. I played it during my free time. And the story line is good. Especially the endings. It was Worth the price. Would play it again.

I already finished the game and am planing to replay it to pass the time, and unlock the other endings and achievements.

### 1/5 — it doesn't work

*2025-12-25, version 1.0.12*

The buttons on the signs in the garden are not working!!!!!

### 1/5 — Won’t reopen

*2025-09-10, version 1.0.64*

Once it closes, won’t reopen! Update!

### 1/5 — Nice

*2025-03-18, version 1.0.64*

Дуже крута гра!

### 1/5 — Uncreative and uninspired

*2023-10-31, version 1.1.2*

Solve easy “puzzles” where you find obvious puzzle answers on walls and tediously run to the nearby puzzles to “solve” them by just recreating the pictures that you just saw. As you do this you can appreciate various white male scientists. Those are the only ones that ever existed right?

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2023-08-08, version 1.1.2*

Far too esoteric with no context… whoever is rating this highly obviously works for the company.  Boring and worthless, don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Dreadful. No tutorial. Have no idea what to do?

*2022-12-03*

Really disappointed as great looking game.  I am a few minutes in and no idea what to do?  I have managed to light gas under pot of water but that’s it. Other puzzles make no sense?  Buttons and pie chart dials.  If I could ask for my money back I would. This us no Rusty lake and disappointed it was recommended on Rusty lake page.

### 1/5 — CLUELESS

*2021-11-17, version 1.1*

Is it possible to get a refund?  I sadly have no idea what to do with this fun-looking app or how to get more than footstep and knocking sounds but the support page is in a language I don’t know.

### 1/5 — Le jeu ne se charge pas….😡

*2021-11-02*

………

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2021-10-24*

I haven’t even played the game yet because it keeps crashing after I click “new game”. I’ve deleted the app once now hoping that would fix the issue, but after downloading it again I am facing the same problem!

### 2/5 — 無駄にマップの広い脱出ゲーム

*2025-05-26*

アドベンチャーというか画面の遷移が遅くてマップがやたらと広くて謎解きヒントが散らばりすぎた脱出ゲーム。
暗い雰囲気と分かりやすいお涙頂戴の世界観にハマれなければゲームの作りにイライラするだけ。

Чудесная занимательная игра, затягивает и беспокоит. Супер!

### 5/5 — Great puzzles!

*2025-12-05, version 1.0.64*

I loved the game. It reminded me of a complicated escape room.

### 5/5 — incredible!!!

*2025-11-19*

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-11-17*

Beautiful art, some tough puzzles, a surprisingly touching story. I can’t recommend this game highly enough.

### 5/5 — Лучшая игра за последние несколько месяцев

*2025-10-09*

Все загадки не сложные, можно пройти без подсказок (которых тут, кстати, нет). Очень удобный интерфейс, особенно то, что можно писать отгадки прямо в игре, как в блокноте! Дизайн 100/10, обожаю этих создателей 🥰

### 5/5 — Wtf?

*2025-09-17, version 1.0.64*

А где вторая часть? Вы удалили?

### 5/5 — 2??
