### 3/5 — Should be cheaper

*2023-03-30, version 1.0.2*

I’ve played the whole dark city series and Paris is the only one that cost be $6 and honestly it’s only worth half of that. The game is too easy and prompted that I blew through it quick. All the other dark city games were free to play and only had to pay $2 for the bonus chapter so I recommend saving your money for those.

### 3/5 — Needs fine tuning

*2023-01-02, version 1.0.2*

1st mini game was frustrating with the buttons being so finicky. Unfortunately, this continues throughout the game.

### 4/5 — Paris

*2022-10-25, version 1.0.2*

bon scenario

### 5/5 — Dark city

*2022-10-13, version 1.0.2*

I love It

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2022-09-30, version 1.0.2*

This game was fun and challenging and free.

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2022-09-28, version 1.0.2*

Just finished the main game, and although it states updated two weeks ago I still found bugs and glitches. Trying to complete the airship going around the map at the end if the game was impossible. Tried to get the airship to move and it wouldn’t. This wasn’t the first time that I found the mini games not working and sadly had to hit the skip button. Will be interesting to see how the bonus game pans out.
UPDATE - thank you for your response but there is no way I am going to replay the game just to give screenshots. Best way is ensure that the game can be played on a variety of devices before releasing.

### 4/5 — Great company. Not their best effort.

*2022-08-13, version 1.0.1*

I’ve purchased all of their games.  Why?  They are relaxing, fun and not overly complicated with so much running around.  Visually they do a good job with the art.

This particular title was boring and the story not interesting at all. It wasn’t well scripted as well.   Also, the game was short.  A rather disappointing effort, but it’s still something to play that won’t drive you nuts from too much running around and having to use hints.  

Thanks for the new release.  It was something to play.

### 5/5 — Dark city Paris

*2022-08-08, version 1.0.1*

Brilliant game storyline was great too. Found some the quests tricky but this made the game more enjoyable. Keep up the good work, can’t wait for the next one 😁👍❤️

### 4/5 — Was OK but some puzzles quite tricky.

*2022-07-27, version 1.0.1*

Good graphics and gameplay. Let down by several tricky puzzles but apart from that I completed the game in 4 hours.

### 5/5 — Shorter in ‘22 or is it me??

*2022-07-21, version 1.0.1*

Update 7/21/22
 Thanks to Lynx & another game she reviewed I was informed these great developers are from the Ukraine. I apologize if my review was tone deaf about this year. I will continue to support your fight for independence & human rights(as will most people reading this). I hope you & all your loved ones are safe. Our hearts are with you💕

Original:
I want to start off by saying I have all ❤️ for Friendly Fox. It’s more like 4.5 for your always loyal fans. Still 5 against any other developer. They are the best bar-none developers of HOAG💕. No other developer has had such unique, immersive gameplay, & rich storytelling(everything else also on point) I love games with a “gimmick”(interactive objects/aspects)that make me feel hyped about playing it. My favs are Bridge to Another World & Living Legend series but all by 🦊 are great. Why not 5 ⭐️s? Again I will always support this developer but I just feel this year (‘22) they’ve seemed over before I knew it & ended without me feeling they were deserving of way MORE than just 5 stars? The bonus chapter was always like getting 2 games in one but now I’d rather you put more into original gameplay & include no bonus chapter. I never was a big XMas person but they made me LOVE what they did with the Nutcracker(which I had always refused to read/watch/hear lol) the end of last year. It’s literally just this last year(not including remasters of course). I’m waiting until you guys have 2 games out to start playing for that reason(still haven’t played Voice). Maybe you guys set the bar too high? AGAIN please keep ‘em coming. Will always support/buy. Just constructive criticism. I totally appreciate the work you guys put into these games. Can we make it like the good ‘ol days(lol)& make em as long & interactive as they used to be ‘21 & before? 🤞🏻💕🥰

### 5/5 — Too short for $9.99

*2022-07-18, version 1.0.1*

Loved this game so much that I paid for the whole game but finished it quite quickly. I thought paying would get me a much longer experience.

### 1/5 — Too pricey for what it is

*2023-05-13, version 1.1.0*

Bad

### 1/5 — Game review

*2022-10-28, version 1.0.2*

Stop asking for a review do you understand

### 1/5 — Looked good but too expensive

*2022-09-03, version 1.0.1*

I only played for 10 mins then it requires payment to continue and in my opinion it is too expensive. In most games like this, you complete a full quest before they ask you to pay half the price of this to complete a larger bonus level. It’s a shame as it looks promising but I would worry that the rest of it would be just as short.

### 1/5 — Quelques étapes et le jeux vous bloque

*2022-08-21, version 1.0.1*

15 minute de jeux apres faut payer afficher le pas dans le gratuit

### 1/5 — Pay to play

*2022-07-17, version 1.0.1*

It’s free til it isn’t. I wasn’t expecting that at all.

### 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!

### 2/5 — Paris 2 - yawn,

*2022-12-04, version 1.0.2*

Of all the games in this series, this was the dullest. The others had lots of activities and puzzles to solve whereas this one had more dialogue but hardly any puzzles to do. When it did have a puzzle/ action area, they were much shorter in length too. Not worth it in my opinion.

### 2/5 — It’s ok

*2022-12-01, version 1.0.2*

But it makes me miss the old school type hidden object games, where you have to find the objects listed in a gorgeous scene vs the dark blobs that the developers think should make it clear what you’re supposed to find.  I get the idea of shaking things up but, sometimes too much of a new thing isn’t all that great.

### 3/5 — Poor value

*2024-08-20, version 1.1.1*

Expensive, short, with few and fairly simple puzzles.

### 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 — ❤️

*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.

### 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 💗💗💗

### 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!

### 5/5 — Fun game, just wish it was longer!

*2023-03-13, version 1.0.2*

Great

### 5/5 — Ghostly fun!

*2023-02-24, version 1.0.2*

This game is challenging without being discouraging with interesting characters, beautifully done graphics and clever puzzles. And if that weren't enough, the game also provides a link through which one can donate to help Ukraine!

### 5/5 — Paris

*2023-02-11, version 1.0.2*

Enjoying the game. Good graphics and storyline. I love it when I can pay the game outright. 5 stars ⭐️

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-12-03, version 1.0.2*

Love it!
