### 3/5 — Nice but finicky

*2022-08-27, version 1.0.0*

You have to tap EXACTLY in the right spot… many times I went around in circles because I had tapped a few milimiters to the right (actually tapping the right object) and thought my idea was wrong…

### 5/5 — Paramount

*2020-03-24, version 1.0.0*

Fun storyline. Interesting and diverse puzzles. I also had the option to play my own music.  Great settings as well.

### 3/5 — Okay, but difficult

*2018-11-10, version 1.0.0*

Good artwork as usual. I was expecting to find some recognizable landmarks, but so far not yet.

Some of the tasks are ridiculously easy, and some of the puzzles are ridiculously difficult. I hate skipping puzzles but some of these would have taken me a month to figure out, and maybe not even then.

I'll keep at it.

### 2/5 — Нудная игра

*2018-10-11, version 1.0.0*

Не интересный сюжет - совсем, брал игру за пол цены, даже тех денег она не стоит

### 1/5 — Большая рыба .

*2018-09-26, version 1.0.0*

Новая игра каждую неделю ??? И хватит продавать старьё, оплаченное пару лет назад . Заявите о себе .

### 1/5 — Wrong price

*2018-09-26, version 1.0.0*

Big Fish is advertising this game for 2.99 but Apple is trying to charge 6.99 so I won’t be purchasing.

### 1/5 — Price

*2018-09-25, version 1.0.0*

Does not give reduced speciel price?

### 1/5 — Not on sale

*2018-09-25, version 1.0.0*

The ad says this is on sale for $2.99 but when I go to purchase it, it costs $6.99. I’ve been ripped off.

### 1/5 — Wrong price

*2018-09-25, version 1.0.0*

So this sale price of 2.99 ends tomorrow when I go to purchase game it still comes up 6.99. I am not paying 6.99 for an old game fix it please. When it’s fixed then I’ll change my rating.

### 2/5 — Fausse Promotion big fish

*2018-09-25, version 1.0.0*

On nous appâte avec moins 55% du prix mais quand on le télécharge le prix passe à 7€99 Aucune Promo. !!!!
