## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Had potential

*2024-08-29, version 1.0.2*

Then the game shut off. I’d like a refund.

### 1/5 — Pirouette

*2023-12-08, version 1.0.2*

One of the “ uncross the lines” games that the ball of light uses, is stuck!  I want a refund please.

### 1/5 — Ripoff

*2023-11-09, version 1.0.2*

I played for a very short period of time. Reached a mini game and the game crashes after you finish it. Have reached out to support who were of no help, I think I deserve to get my $12.00 back since their product is flawed. I will not be holding my breath.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-10-15, version 1.0.2*

As soon as I paid for this game it shut down and didn’t work again

### 1/5 — Game shuts down when finishing a puzzle

*2023-05-18, version 1.0.2*

As soon as I finish the star puzzle to enter the theatre the game shuts done every time - same if I try to skip that puzzle. Sorry I paid for this game to only be able to play 20 minutes.

### 1/5 — Quincy

*2016-09-07, version 1.0.2*

Paid then a short time in, it froze on me, shut down rebooted still not working, need my money back. Have not had this for a very long time, don't see why we can't get money back when you do get this problem.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2016-08-26, version 1.0.2*

Hot dog HOP won't work. Able to pick up tongs then nothing. No further action allowed. Don't waste your time until this gets fixed.

### 2/5 — Nor worth it

*2016-08-27, version 1.0.2*

There are so many kinks in this game to be worked out....no explanations on how to play individual games, no indication of where to go.  I am a huge fan of HO games, and I was extremely disappointed, because the story line held promise, but the lack of direction and more than anything instructions on how to play the individual games made it frustrating and even unpleasant. Wait until some of the bugs have been worked out, and in the meantime try G5 games.  I've never had an issue with theirs!

### 2/5 — Still faulty

*2016-08-25, version 1.0.2*

If you're going to trap me in a room, make sure I have a way of getting out. The cassette and the little chest have disappeared so I'm stuck with 'nothing more to do here'. Basically game over and since I'm very near the end I'm not starting over. Refund time.

### 3/5 — Okay

*2016-08-25, version 1.0.2*

Not great, but okay.  I only played the free sample, and it was too quickly over to truly get a feel for the game.  I didn't like the circuit puzzle, but I may just be impatient today.  The HO scene was okay.  The map seems good, and allows teleportation to other scenes.  The hint is fine, too.  I just wasn't drawn into the game.  And, I didn't like not being able to skip over some "conversations."  I don't pay much attention to the stories.  I'm just interested in the HO scenes and puzzles.  This game just wasn't interesting to me.

### 5/5 — Прекрасная, захватывающая игра

*2020-01-15*

Давненько меня персонажи в поисках предметов так не привлекали, особенно Каталина. Вообще красотка.

Чудесные локации, интересный сюжет в кои-то веки... Концовка скомкана, правда, и не все понятно, но я всё равно доволен.

Игра немножко тормозила на моем старом айпаде, но не вылетала, и играть можно было спокойно. 

Всем рекомендую поиграть, кто давно сох по казуалкам и хочет во что-то порубиться.
Покупайте по скидке, точно своих денег стоит.

### 5/5 — Loved this game and the bonus features

*2018-09-24, version 1.0.2*

I liked the plot and characters on this one a lot, it was very well crafted. Very smooth experience playing all the way through. I barely had any glitches - No freezing, only 2 misses grabbing things or using them and on repeating  the action they worked fine.  Great eerie music and very enjoyable companion games.  Hints and teleporting responsive.  I liked all the scenes there were more places

### 5/5 — Well made game...

*2018-08-25, version 1.0.2*

As usual Daily Magic have produced a really smooth game that flows extremely well, with beautiful artwork and a captivating story. I particularly liked the variety of styles of hidden object scenes, especially where items needed to be placed. The puzzles were interesting and do-able too.

### 4/5 — Tolles Spiel!

*2019-01-22*

Mir hat die Geschichte sehr gut gefallen. War klasse umgesetzt mit guten Schauplätzen. Wimmler und Minigames passten gut in den Ablauf. Allerdings war es manchmal wirklich schwierig, die klitzekleinen Gegenstände zu finden und zu finden. Dafür ein Stern Abzug. Die Länge war aber richtig gut.

### 4/5 — 4 Stern

*2016-11-01*

Ist ganz spannend gemacht, an manchen stellen leider unspektakulär und einige minispiele nicht gut erklärt. Aber im Ganzen hat er 4 Sterne verdient

### 4/5 — Getting better

*2016-09-08, version 1.0.2*

The updated version fixes the inventory issues, but only if I deleted my initial full version and loaded the free one. And now it won't recognize that I had already paid for the full version. 
(For the hot dog puzzle, first use the cup and lemon in the lemonade machine. Pour it on the metal lid in the middle of the puzzle and THEN you can use the tongs)

### 4/5 — Ladypen

*2016-09-02, version 1.0.2*

Would have given 5stars just not quite long enough for the cost. Review time on pricing.
Apart from that spot on very good game

### 4/5 — ♥️👏 DAILY MAGIC delivers delightful drama 👏♥️

*2016-08-27, version 1.0.2*

I nearly ditched this one during the first few minutes of play (untangling the stars in the magic lantern is a bit daunting), but I'm delighted that I persevered. I definitely enjoyed  Dark Dimensions due in part to the 18-19 phenomenal hidden object/puzzle hybrid HOPs which include silhouette/pairing features and delectably disparate mini-games (although a couple were a little difficult to decipher). The Collection of silhouettes (enabling a brief video detailing the events leading up to the Main Story), the opportunity to replay HOPs and puzzles, plus a Bonus triangle feature all combine to deliver much EXTRAS play time.

### 4/5 — Recht ordentlich

*2016-08-25*

Karte, Sammelobjekte und neben dem Bonusspiel auch noch zusätzliche Minispiele. Nur vier Sterne weil manche Suchobjekte kaum zu erkennen sind.
