### 5/5 — An absolute smash!

*2026-07-01, version 1.5.14*

Such a great game. I don’t know how they keep making such unique plots and fun puzzles.

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2026-04-09, version 1.5.7*

### 5/5 — Brilliant game

*2025-11-30, version 1.5.7*

Another great game from friendly fox. Looking forward to the latest release.

### 5/5 — 丁度良い

*2025-09-22*

難易度は難しすぎなくて遊びやすい
iPhoneで進行難しい所があったのをメールで相談したらすぐに返信をしてくれて、アップデートも早く上げてくれて対応が素晴らしかったです。

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words! 💖 We’ll keep working hard to make sure you always have a smooth and fun experience!

### 5/5 — Macht Spaß,

*2025-06-18*

Sehr schön gestaltetes Spiel. Interessante Story, lösbare Rätsel. Habe jetzt fast alle Dark City Spiele durchgespielt. Auch ohne Kauf sehr gut zu spielen! Man bekommt ein paar Freitipps, wenn man wirklich mal nicht weiterkommt. Schön ist, dass man nicht etliche Locations zurück muss, um etwas zu holen um weiter zu kommen. Manchmal muss man aber gefühlt pixelgenau etwas platzieren, damit es „haften“ bleibt - das könnten die Entwickler etwas großzügiger handhaben. Ansonsten großes Lob für ein gratis spielbares Spiel!

**Developer response:** Wir freuen uns sehr, dass dir das Spiel gefallen hat – das ist das schönste Kompliment für uns! Wir werden weiterhin hart daran arbeiten, unsere Spiele in Zukunft noch besser zu machen. Vielen Dank! 😊

### 5/5 — 한글화 지원

*2025-04-18*

한글화 지원만 되면 인기가 많을것같은데 계획이 있나요? 😂

**Developer response:** 감사합니다! 현재 한글화 지원 계획은 없지만, 유저들의 의견을 소중히 여기고 있으니 앞으로의 업데이트에서 고려해볼 수 있습니다. 여러분의 관심에 감사드리며, 앞으로도 많은 지원 부탁드립니다! 😊

### 1/5 — ………

*2025-02-09, version 1.0.7*

Sarebbe bello avere anche la lingua italiana…

### 2/5 — What’s changed?

*2024-12-04, version 1.0.7*

I bought this game ages ago and thought I’d have another go on it. Why have I suddenly got to buy rubies to get hints or skip bits??
This wasn’t the case when I first got it. I never buy games that need more purchases. Very unfair of you to change the game to cost me more money!

### 5/5 — 楽しい

*2024-09-30*

とても楽しかったです。ありがとうございました！
他のダークシティも日本語対応にして欲しいです。

**Developer response:** ありがとうございます！楽しんでいただけて嬉しいです。今後、他のダークシティも日本語に対応できるよう検討しますので、ぜひご期待ください 😉💖

### 5/5 — 全部良い

*2024-09-13*

ストーリーも映像も難易度も全て良いです。他のゲームもやってみようも思いましたがあまり日本語対応が少ないのが残念。こちらはちゃんと字幕あるのですごく楽しめました！ぜひ他のシリーズも日本語対応して欲しいです。

**Developer response:** ご感想と温かいお言葉、本当にありがとうございます！ゲームのストーリー、ビジュアル、難易度を楽しんでいただけたようで何よりです。もっと日本語に対応してほしいというお気持ちはよくわかります。私たちは常にゲームを改善し、プレイヤーの皆様のご要望にお応えできるよう努力しております。皆様からの貴重なご意見は、私たちがより良いゲームを提供できるよう努力していく上で、とても重要なものです。今後ともよろしくお願いいたします 💗💗💗
