### 4/5 — Budapest

*2022-10-26, version 1.3.2*

Intriguant

### 4/5 — It was fun

*2022-09-05, version 1.3.2*

I was enjoying this game but all of a sudden the end happened. According to map I thought there was much more. Way too short. Don’t get me wrong, I recommend the game but I wish it was a lot longer.

### 4/5 — Excellent, mais court...

*2022-06-14, version 1.3.2*

J’ai adoré ce jeu, mais je l’ai trouvé court.

### 4/5 — Fun in Budapest

*2022-05-13, version 1.3.2*

This is a great game! The game play was long, as was the bonus chapter.  The scenes were nicely designed, clear, and enjoyable. The story line was good, not too spooky! A great game!

### 4/5 — Very clever game, easy to moderate skill level..

*2022-01-17, version 1.0.2*

Beautiful artistry!! The store is intriguing and entertaining. The puzzles are fun. The difficulty level is not as high as some games, but that keeps for a good pace while playing.

### 5/5 — Love Dark City games!

*2021-12-21, version 1.0.1*

They are my favorite series from this developer, although all the games are really well done and fun to play. I am so glad this one came out just in time for Christmas, I’ve been enjoying my down time playing this after a stressful day at work!

### 5/5 — Best yet

*2021-12-20, version 1.0.1*

Steam punk graphics, mind-bending puzzles, and perfectly paced narrative — I am in awe of this wonderful game. I especially admired the timely interplay of science and myth. Such a lovely smart game. (My 5th attempt to write review..??) moxieruby

### 5/5 — So fun

*2021-12-12, version 1.0.1*

I enjoyed playing this game.  I love these types of games. This one was well done with hints and the sparkles that let you know there’s a hidden object mini-game.

### 5/5 — Very enjoyable!

*2021-12-10, version 1.0.1*

Like others, I took my time and enjoyed each scene and task. Thanks for yet another amazing game! Definitely buy this one and enjoy!

### 1/5 — Scam

*2023-11-07, version 1.4.1*

You get to play for maybe half an hour then they want you to pay.

### 1/5 — No

*2023-06-06, version 1.4.0*

The second I finished this game my house exploded, I got divorced and 16 old men stole all of my rice

### 1/5 — OMG

*2022-05-12, version 1.3.2*

I can not believe they did such a big mistake. The story has nothing to do with Budapest … It is a local mith from Romania… Vlad Dracul was a personality from Romania… it is ofending that the creators didn’t know about this…

### 1/5 — Good…

*2022-02-28, version 1.3.1*

But too expensive.

### 1/5 — Wieder nur in Englisch

*2021-11-12, version 1.0*

Warum wird jedesmal angegeben das die Spiele in Deutsch spielbar sind wenn es nicht stimmt.
Macht keinen Spaß mehr 😒

### 2/5 — Dark City Budapest

*2021-12-14, version 1.0.1*

There is a glitch. I can’t click on the odor coming out of the syringe. So I am stuck at this point of the game. Please help

### 3/5 — Good game but

*2025-09-01, version 1.4.1*

The match 3 mini-game fights are impossible!

### 3/5 — Not a full game!

*2022-02-25, version 1.3.1*

Looks to be a good game but just as You start to get interested they demand money!! This should be made clear in the description… I've yet to find a full game that takes me more than a couple of days, so paying for them is far too expensive 
Very disappointing!

### 3/5 — Difference in payment not logical

*2022-01-31, version 1.2.1*

Games great. In app purchase shows $8.50 US for game and bonus. My purchase through app store was $19.42 CAN with taxes. US to CAN exchange at 22% so canadian price should be $10.37 plus taxes. I know I’m not paying $9.00 in taxes so what gives?  Is there hidden costs?

### 3/5 — The globe constellation thing has issues

*2021-12-06, version 1.0.1*

I'm playing right along until I get to the globe thing where you're supposed to drag the picture to the correct constellation. I can't proceed because the scorpion won't work. I've dragged it a million times to where even the hint said it should be. Nope. Help me fix  it.

### 5/5 — Amazingly interesting

*2024-12-27, version 1.4.1*

Once you start it’s so hard to put down I’ve tried other games from different companies and this company Fox makes the best entertaining clues are great. There’s always something to do. I’m able to play by myself or play with my kids. and just for a 6.99 not bad it’s less than a slice of pizza and a soda and you’re good for a few  hours or depending how fast you go through it, you can probably finish it in like an hour, depending on the difficulty you can set. The colors look great. The music is good. The variety of puzzles are awesome. Can’t complain. I’ve must’ve bought five of their games already in the past week and I haven’t gone back to unlock more things so you really get your bang for your buck. The only thing though I just wish that they would do more sales or bundle packages. They have a lot of great series. Thank you, fox coming from a mom of 4

### 5/5 — A story based on the great monsters

*2024-05-24, version 1.4.1*

The story is a great story based on Bram Stoker’s Dracula and hints of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. With a great twist near the end as well. Fantastic game. Here’s hoping for a Dark City game based other great monsters, maybe phantom of the opera or even the Mummy in Egypt.

### 5/5 — Dark city: Budapest

*2023-02-17, version 1.3.2*

Great game. They give you a preview sample before buying full game plus bonus game for $5.99. I think it’s worth it because no adds and you can skip a puzzle if it’s frustrating and you get hints. It’s a easy game and interesting. It seems kind of short because your not stuck paying or waiting for energy like free games. There’s even a little card game after you beat it and collect the special things in each scene. Great 👍 game and worth the $6

### 5/5 — 한글화가 안 된 것이 매우 아쉽습니다

*2022-10-09, version 1.3.2*

매우 재미있게 플레이 중이지만 한글화 안 된 점이 매우 아쉽네요!

### 5/5 — Dark City Games F.F.S.

*2022-08-22, version 1.3.2*

One thing about these games— they have a tone of kindness.  Won’t say more because I don’t want to be a spoiler. Also, I realize most people will not find kindness appealing these days. I find it refreshing. 

I enjoyed the character Lester!  I found the crane puzzle a bit wearing. 

Thank you.

### 5/5 — Dark city

*2022-05-01, version 1.3.1*

Nice game 👍

### 5/5 — Budapest

*2022-04-29, version 1.3.1*

It’s an older game. But I m really enjoying it. There s a lot. To work out it’s very good different from the norm

### 5/5 — Sehr gut gemacht

*2022-02-19, version 1.3.1*

Es ist entspannt zu spielen und jetzt nicht unbedingt aufregender als die anderen Games von BF. Sammelobjekte und Karte vorhanden und die Story mit dem Vampir auch ganz nett jedoch durchschaubar. Egal. 
Ich habe eigentlich alle Chamäleonobjekte gefunden, aber wo bitte schön soll das CO im Hafen sein ( dort wo der Kran steht)?
Ich habe alles angetippt und genau nachgesehen. Nichts zu finden. 
Alles in allem ein schönes Spiel mit nicht zu vielen WS und gut lösbaren Rätseln.

### 5/5 — Dark City: Budapest by LynxMinx

*2022-01-12, version 1.0.2*

Happy holidays, gamers!
This game is the latest gem to add to the Dark City family. The graphics are incredible, the storyline is interesting (a twist on the legend of Dracula), and the HO scenes and puzzles are enjoyable and innovative. 
But what some of you might not realize is the amount of research that Friendly Fox does before creating a game. For example, the bridge with the lions, which connects Buda and Pest over the Danube, looks exactly like the actual bridge in Budapest! The attention to detail is amazing.
This game was lengthy, exciting and fantastic. The quality assurance was perfect, as always. In addition, this developer really cares about the gamers and their experience.
We love Friendly Fox and we hope to see way more from them in 2022!

### 5/5 — Ein super Spiel

*2022-01-02, version 1.0.2*

Ganz toll gemacht, hat alles was man sich wünscht. Großes Lob auch für die schnelle Übersetzung in die deutsche Sprache 😀😀😀😀Danke dafür und ein frohes neues Jahr noch 🎇
