### 5/5 — ❤️

*2025-11-27, version 1.2.3*

Love Love Love ALL your games ! Graphics 👍Storylines 👍 Puzzles 👍.  Continuously checking for your new releases. Thank You for the Great Games.

### 5/5 — Amazing funnnnnnnn

*2025-02-15, version 1.1.1*

Great graphics, im a stay at home mom this is the best down time, stories are fun, I have one puzzle game left of this series to buy, never thought I would be sad to run out of games to play,,, thank you Fox Games you guys successfully have taken all my extra money because I’m addicted to your games. It’s worth it!,,,,, i’ve tried all the other games like this from other brands and something’s always missing either the graphics the storyline or there’s a gimmick where they want you to buy coins or buy stuff. This is not like that. Maybe Fox games would be kind enough to give someone a free game, wink wink hint, hint since I’m such a big fan and supporter.  I’ve already purchased almost your entire library. I only have a couple left to go.

### 5/5 — Great story

*2025-02-08, version 1.1.1*

Not sure what these comments are about it being "boring." It is not. Maybe you have to know something about how people treated Tesla to get it. While in reality, Tesla's World's Fair triumph was in Chicago, when his AC beat patent troll Edison to be standard electric current, he did attend the one in Paris, too. Props to the devs for the U2 albums in one of the hidden objects puzzles.

### 3/5 — Poor value

*2024-08-20, version 1.1.1*

Expensive, short, with few and fairly simple puzzles.

### 2/5 — Fred

*2024-06-16, version 1.1.1*

I’m getting a bit fed up of paying for games only to discover they don’t play particularly well on iPhones. Problems with picking things up or with placing them, hardly got into this game before I encountered the problem now I can’t get any further. Why say it’s playable on iPhone when it actually isn’t!

### 5/5 — Dark city Paris review

*2024-05-25, version 1.1.1*

Another amazing Dark City game. Amazing plot with a twist, fun puzzles and a thrilling bonus chapter. Bonus points for the story being about Tesla, one of my favourite and one of the best scientists in the world.

### 5/5 — Iiiincroyable

*2024-01-22*

Ce jeu est tout bonnement génial !!!

**Developer response:** Nous vous remercions pour vos commentaires positifs sur notre jeu. Votre opinion nous incite à travailler encore plus dur 💗💗💗

### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2023-12-30, version 1.1.1*

This game has some great puzzles and a fun tactic, but I paid the fee to get the bonus features and I was so disappointed that the game ends without any further levels. I feel this was a poor value for the amount charged. I actually played it a second time through in all one evening to see if there was something I missed…. Don’t waste your money if you’re thinking of paying for the extras.

### 5/5 — Loving this game!

*2023-07-12, version 1.1.0*

I much prefer to buy a game outright rather than buy hints. I like finding morphing objects and additional items within the gameplay and the ability to skip the trickier games. It would be good to have some loyalty bonuses too like the occasional game sale. Well done! and please keep them coming!

### 1/5 — Too pricey for what it is

*2023-05-13, version 1.1.0*

Bad
