### 5/5 — Dark city Mysterious Intrigue

*2025-06-05, version 1.2.1*

Very enjoyable

### 5/5 — This “Intriguing” Game is on “Fire”!

*2025-02-16, version 1.2.1*

I love this series for its captivating fusion of mystery, crime, and the supernatural. You are a reputable detective who is investigating a rash of incendiary attacks throughout the most famous cities in the world. Is the blazing Phoenix to blame, or is it a figment of people’s imaginations? Or do the magicians have a hand in causing the chaos? You put your detective skills to work in an interactive manner through acquiring clues and using deductive reasoning. You will learn a great deal of the backstory by reading collected materials within the locations as well as within the hidden-object scenes. The gameplay is entertaining and diversified enough to suit every player’s taste. Collectibles will be discovered in each scene. The game was free of any glitches, allowing for seamless fluidity. I thank the developers for continuing to provide a much needed source of enjoyment.

### 2/5 — Great Premise, Poor Execution especially for a paid app

*2025-02-01, version 1.2.1*

The game and somewhat historical fiction themes were quite intriguing. Once play started the UI was very cumbersome and even after using the tutorial it still was not ideal. For similar game play and more variety Unsolved is a better option.

### 3/5 — Not enough bang for the buck

*2024-06-02, version 1.0.0*

Nice but unfortunately way too short

### 5/5 — Another great Game

*2024-05-31, version 1.0.0*

Another fantastic Dark city Game. Love the setting being in various countries instead on just the one. Loved the twists and the incorporation of both fictional and reality with real people and fictional characters in a realistic and believable way.

### 5/5 — Fox Games are great

*2024-04-12*

Not short.. Another person mentioned the puzzles were difficult. I would say they are more difficult than some other fox games, but not at all too difficult. If you play a lot of the fox games, there are some new games in this one. If you don’t play a lot of fox games, I don’t know why not.  Quite enjoyable! 
Spoiler: 
I think the blue line game in the jewelry shop was a bit tedious. Very small areas to move pieces around on my iPad.maybe make the puzzle larger, or lines bigger.  Otherwise very good! 

Thanks for another great game.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your detailed feedback! We appreciate your thoughts on the difficulty of the puzzles and will take them into account in future updates. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the game overall. Regarding the blue line puzzle in the jewelry store, we will look into ways to improve the user experience. Thanks again for playing and for sharing your thoughts with us! 🥰

### 5/5 — Another great game 🤩😎🤩

*2024-02-04, version 1.0.0*

And you’ve done it again! Great gameplay and puzzles. Wouldn’t expect anything less from FFS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — What happened?

*2024-01-11, version 1.0.0*

Luckily I decided to replay one of my older foxy games and that
is when I saw this game for some reason I was never informed
of this game I never received  mail about this game. I hope
nothing like this will happen again because I love your games
and have everyone of them . As for this game it is fantastic
as always. Thank you for the best games.
🥰

### 3/5 — I like the game, but …

*2023-11-21, version 1.0.0*

But $6.99 is a bit steep.  And the part that's F2P leading up to the point where you have to pay for more is really short.

### 3/5 — Not sure about this one

*2023-10-16, version 1.0.0*

It’s too short…to easy….the graphics a beautiful!
