### 4/5 — Entertaining game

*2021-10-04, version 1.0.4*

Some of the puzzles are quite simple but I don’t mind that too much as it makes the game flow

### 3/5 — GREAT BUT....

*2021-05-30, version 1.0.4*

It is a very atmospheric game and so very beautifully designed. But compare the price with a VR game and you’re not getting very much at all at £4 I would buy it but I think that the price is too far it’s rather expensive if you wanna buy all three which I do. But at this price I haven’t as there’s so many games for me to choose so and I can get much more for my money. But I have to say developers it is an absolutely beautiful game.

### 3/5 — Dark city 2munich

### 3/5 — Schade

*2020-12-21, version 1.0.2*

### 5/5 — 💫🥰

*2020-12-18, version 1.0.2*

I love the dark city series this one was fantastic 👌

### 2/5 — Bärenspur lässt sich nicht auflösen

*2020-12-17, version 1.0.1*

Im Wanderzirkus kann die Bärenspur nicht aufgelöst werden, weil der Umriss so weit links abgelegt ist, dass man ihn nicht aktivieren kann. Liegt praktisch unter der Karte.
Bitte fixen.

Vielen Dank, dass ihr das so schnell gefixt habt 🤩 👍👍

### 2/5 — After I bought the game it keeps crashing after hitting play

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I can’t get the game to load

*2025-10-08, version 1.2.0*

As soon as the games asks me if I want to play again as I have completed it I select yes and the game just closes

### 1/5 — Can’t zoom in on the hidden object games!

*2025-03-26, version 1.2.0*

How many are playing these guys on a phone, the scene is too small to catch everything!!

### 1/5 — If you enjoy games where you need to decide which character is taller than another, you'll love this

*2024-06-13, version 1.1.2*

Seriously, having to click on 12 different figures, then click on a picture, then decide whether the figure is taller or shorter? You can't even skip it. If that sounds about your speed, you'll love it. The big challenge was finding exactly the right place to click so it will register. I cannot delete this game fast enough

### 1/5 — iOS sliders mini game bug

*2021-07-29, version 1.0.4*

I’m not seeing sliders on the bars. There’s an orange one in the lower left hand corner that doesn’t move, it just buzzes when clicked on. I don’t want to have to skip this.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-12-16, version 1.0.1*

After I payed to unlock the game quits on me. Love this company, really frustrated. I can’t find support email address or number to contact

### 1/5 — Bug

*2020-12-13, version 1.0*

Bären funktioniert nicht zu auswählen

### 1/5 — Game does not play

*2020-12-12, version 1.0*

After unlock,  I get kicked out of game at load screen.

### 1/5 — Dark city 2

*2020-12-11, version 1.0*

Stuck on matching tracks with animals wolf and bear doesnt work

### 2/5 — Ziemlich schlecht programmiert

*2024-08-17, version 1.1.2*

Man hat schon mehrfach auf die richtige Stelle getippt ohne Ergebnis.
Und wenn man dann völlig entnervt den Hinweis nimmt, ist es doch genau das, wo man grade die ganze Zeit hingetippt hat, und o Wunder, jetzt funktioniert es.
Und das ist nur ein Beispiel. Das Spiel macht eher Frust als Lust

### 2/5 — Unable to purchase share

*2021-01-20, version 1.0.2*

I bought this game as it shows it is eligible for family sharing. I can’t get it to share. The contact email address in-app and the developer website isn’t accepting emails. What now?  The game is good but doesn’t meet expectations for this reason.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-04-03, version 1.2.0*

Best hidden object game lots of tricky stuff I hoping fox has a lot more to play .

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-08-07, version 1.1.2*

Very addicting and entertaining game! Even the story is great. Thanks developers for making such an awesome game.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2024-05-30, version 1.1.2*

Normally I don’t like fantasy elements in mystery games. But this game has a perfect mixture/balance or fantasy and reality with the fantasy not being to in your face and making the game enjoyable to play. The twists were fun, the puzzles challenging and the plot was perfect.

### 5/5 — This game is really great

*2023-08-06, version 1.1.2*

It’s a 10 in my book like all the sounds

### 5/5 — Dark city

*2022-05-10, version 1.0.4*

I love it

### 5/5 — Dark City: Munich

*2021-06-30, version 1.0.4*

How do l love Friendly Fox games? Let me count the ways! This comment added after your very kind response. Please continue to release pay games. F2P is deceiving and if you look at comments left for other developers you will understand why so many of us will not succumb to the F2P “mystique”. We want to buy the games and play them again and again, especially yours! Many thanks for taking my, and many others, wishes into consideration.

### 5/5 — Classic

*2021-02-07, version 1.0.2*

Both of the DARK CITY games that I have played have been fantastic. Artwork,storyline,puzzles...all excellent.

### 5/5 — Safe Travels!

*2021-01-10, version 1.0.2*

My first review disappeared (so I will say it was much better written than this one 🧐). But as awesome person always writes in gratitude, thank you for keeping us entertained, for your hard work, for these delightful puzzles. I especially appreciated the smooth interplay of narrative, music, graphics, and puzzle challenge. It all worked. Thanks to Lynx and others for keeping us in the know. This game gives us a delightful mystery tour of historic Munich. Thank you for allowing us a bit of travel while we isolate in place. Keep them coming and I will keep buying and playing— and writing reviews that hopefully don’t disappear. Why does that happen?

### 5/5 — ✨🤩

*2021-01-06, version 1.0.2*

Brilliant game.  A good story, decent puzzles & no technical problems.  I am ready for the next Dark City,  please don’t take too long in making it.  ✨👍🏻✨

### 5/5 — Dark City 2: Munich by LynxMinx

*2021-01-04, version 1.0.2*

UODATE: January 4th. Just spoke to Friendly Fox. We should get a new Edge of Reality in January. In February we will hopefully get Dark City 3 and our all-time favorite blockbuster, a new Bridge to Another World. No release dates yet, but at least this is good news!
Note to Friendly Fox: Thank you for acknowledging my hard working Dream Team Elite. On behalf of myself and the team, we want to wish you a very happy and healthy New Year! We look forward to working with you in 2021 and hope to increase your revenues and ensure your continued success. I noticed that my suggestions have been implemented (clearer graphics, more unusual and unique HO puzzles and a great variety of puzzles and games, more interesting tasks and inventory usage.) Just promise to bring us more of your amazing blockbusters!
This game was nothing short of fantastic! The storyline was fresh, and there was a gimmick in the form of deductive reasoning, and a clue board. The game was lengthy, with gorgeous graphics. It flowed extremely well, with one exciting task after another. I loved the sliding zoom zones and the interaction with objects needed before you could use them. The HO scenes were novel and very enjoyable to play. There was a terrific variety of puzzles! This game challenged my brain and I loved figuring out the next step. Inventory usage sometimes led to surprising results. You never knew what was waiting around the corner, so the game remained exciting and fresh. I couldn’t put it down, as the gameplay was so addictive. The quality assurance was en pointe. I did not want this game to end, because it was another  5 star blockbuster, and the gameplay differs from any other developer. Friendly Fox, well done. Another winner! My rating will remain at 5 ⭐️!
We need more of these incredible adventures from you and hope that we get them in 2021. This last year was very challenging and we hope you can provide us with many more games, be it fantasy, crime or adventure. On behalf of all the players, we love you, Friendly Fox!
Happy New Year to all. Stay safe and positive and get vaccinated when you are a candidate. Once again, happy gaming, everyone!
