### 2/5 — Dark Romance-Ashville

*2023-05-02, version 1.0.8*

I just finished the main game and I have no idea what just happened. The guy said something about leaving the past in  the past, and boom, the main game ended. Weird. Plus, this game, as usual, has touch issues. You have to tap multiple times for the items and at times, you get so irritated that you just close out and go back to it later. I think I gave it four stars previously. Now, I give it two.

### 3/5 — Can’t finish main game

*2021-06-06, version 1.0.4*

I’ve been enjoying this game, but I can’t move past a certain point. When I try to remove what appears to be two yellow pieces of paper from the thigh bag in my inventory, nothing will happen. I was able to remove the other two items, but not this. The hints keep leading me there, but you cannot remove it. I’ve also checked the walkthrough, and there is nothing else I should be doing. This appears to be a glitch.

### 3/5 — Good Game♥️

*2020-10-16, version 1.0.3*

Very Good Game, Love Every Bit Of It, It’s Just   Too Bad That You Have To Pay In Order To Continue On With The Game.....

### 3/5 — Dark Romance: Ashville by LynxMinx

*2020-08-21, version 1.0.3*

UPDATE August 21st:Mystery Tales: Till Death has not been approved by the App Store. We hope to see it next week. I was assured of good quality assurance. Obviously this was not the case. DTE, please stand by and if there are issues let me know! I have told Oleg about the support team but I can get problems fixed more quickly, as you know!
UPDATE on August 20th: Nevertales was removed from the App Store until the App Store can fix the unlock issue. This was not the fault of Mad Head and once it’s back please show them lot of understanding. Thanks, everyone!
UPDATE on August 8th: After about 5 updates, you can now complete the whole game. I am exhausted from trying so hard to complete a game!  Some of the mini-games did not function properly and had to be skipped. The storyline was devoid of any actual romance, just two characters working together in a time warp. The basic tasks were enjoyable to accomplish and inventory usage was in some cases unique. The game was very brief. I am disappointed by the horrendous quality assurance. Therefore my true rating is actually 2.5 stars. 
However I have some major updates. I received two lengthy emails from Oleg. He has assured me that he hired new testers and programmers, and we have to wait and see how well they control future quality assurance. He is not putting the remastered games as a priority over new releases. They take very little time to create. I also got an update in regards to EIPIX. Oleg told me that they should complete negotiations in about a month or so. He will try to fast track the agreement. Don’t give up on him; he realizes that the ball has been dropped and he wants to exert more control over his company.
Now I have a HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT! Remember when we lost our genre, and I promised you that somehow I would restore it. Well the first thing I accomplished was the EIPIX deal, and hopefully we won’t be kept waiting much longer. Now there’s other news. Drumroll please! Finally I have a green light for this exciting announcement. Mad Head is making a return to iOS, and there’s a ton of games to be ported to iOS! For those of you who are newer players, this developer is noted for many fabulous series, such as Nevertales, Maze, Cadenza and Rite of Passage. Mad Head provides us with a wacky, wild, and wonderful thrill ride, colorful graphics, and exciting gameplay. The developer will have a mobile App, a newsletter (please sign up), and eventually will be able to port enough games to give us a subscription model. We are still working on the details, especially negotiating on purchase points. I cannot give you exact dates, but we should expect two August releases. The first shall be Nevertales: The Abomination and the second will be Wanderlust: City of Mists. They will be a couple of weeks apart. Please welcome Mad Head back and show some gratitude, because many of you don’t have a clue as to how much work I put in with the developers on your behalf. So update your reviews and at least tell me how excited you are. Because if you don’t, I might not be inclined to keep working so hard, by myself. Yes, I have the Dream Team Elite but only I can negotiate with the developers. In addition, if any of your friends game on Android devices, please recommend all of our developers to them. Just so you know, quality assurance is not as problematic on Android. Thanks, players. I’m quite sure most of you are extremely happy right now. Considering that we are miserable due to the pandemic, I hope I brightened your outlook.

### 2/5 — Close up

*2020-08-14, version 1.0.3*

So far, in this game and the Phantom game, I am unable to pinch and enlarge the screen.

### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2020-08-10, version 1.0.3*

Every time I open this app, I always have to restore the purchase. This is frustrating especially when you want to play it where there’s no Internet connection.

### 3/5 — Not the best

*2020-08-07, version 1.0.2*

UPDATE 8/7
After reading the review about the fatal flaw, I reset the bonus chapter to test it.  I encountered the same problem with the rifle although I had played through 2 days ago. It appears the update that was issued may have caused the problem.  Another annoying issue is the necessity to unlock the game each time you open it.  Once one has purchased a game it should be recognized. 

UPDATE 8/5
Fabulous news from LynxMinx about Mad Head returning to IOS.  Their games are always top quality and among the best I have played.  All of us who love this genre owe LynxMinx a huge thank you for all her hard work.  I for one am very grateful. 

=========================

I played after the initial issues were corrected and had no problems with them.  I did, however, experience numerous touch issues in the mini games such as the roof tile games.  The tiles could not be placed. These are usually my favorite parts of the games, so I was highly disappointed in that.  All in all, the scenes are bright and the game play enjoyable.  There are the usual extra items hidden in the scenes, but I did not find anything original in any of the HOs.  Overall I’ll rate this one a 3.

### 1/5 — GAME IS NOT FIXED!!!

*2020-07-31, version 1.0.1*

The so called bug fixes and improvements for this game still does NOT work!!! I have written e-mails to support only to get NO response!!  USED to be a good developer & Now we all wait for a New release, only to be disappointed with Glitches Galore!
So Domini, What exactly was the wait for??? Are you Not able to put out a working game??? Don’t expect to succeed, if you CANNOT produce a game!
Sick & Tired of GLITCHY games and NO support whatsoever!
Fix it or LOSE all of your supporters.

KdBoots 
(Definitely NO stars the way things are now)
Hope you read this Domini as your support is useless!

### 3/5 — No captions Please fix

*2020-07-30, version 1.0.0*

There are no captions at all. The game looks like it will be great once it’s fixed.

### 2/5 — Problems right out of the gate

*2020-07-30, version 1.0.0*

Unfortunately there is no text in the “features only” pop up boxes - any of them. No idea what I’m looking at just a pop up and arrows pointing to something or other not even at the collectibles. The price point is rather high and factoring in these issues I’m afraid this will be a pass for me. I’m disappointed as I am a huge fan of this developer however I cannot justify paying the equivalent of a dinner for something that I cannot enjoy.

### 1/5 — Unlock now

*2021-09-26, version 1.0.4*

Every time I go to play the game the main screen shows unlock now. Why, I have paid for the game and it knows that as I when I click on already purchased it restores the game.

### 1/5 — Faulty game

*2021-04-07*

Not happy with this game have paid for it and tried several times to get past a certain point in the game without any success .

**Developer response:** Hello! We are sorry that you experienced this issue. Please write to our support team at support@dominigames.com. Describe the problem step by step (what happens, where it happens, what buttons you click, etc.) and attach screenshots, if possible. Our specialists will be happy to help you.

### 1/5 — Glitch in game

*2021-01-23, version 1.0.3*

Could not finish the game because of glitch.

### 1/5 — Ashville

*2020-10-17, version 1.0.3*

After playing the demo it asked me if I wanted to buy full game I did for 6.99 and the game isn’t working

### 1/5 — Game gets stuck

*2020-08-26, version 1.0.3*

Got through a few levels then it got stuck! No way forward with the game 😡

### 1/5 — Don’t play

*2020-08-09, version 1.0.3*

First off there no words in the captions it’s just a blank box, when it ask if you want a tutorial there is nothing there no words you have to guess. Just once I want a game with no problems. They charged me full price and I’m a subscriber. Please fix.       
 
Update August 8th played the game all the way through no problem,then  went it went through a second update the bonus chapter was stuck at the rifle like everyone else. For the money and time we invest in these games there should not be any flaws. I know things happened but this is all the time. Fix this problem are you will lose a lot of players.

### 1/5 — Glitch

*2020-08-08, version 1.0.2*

Played the regular game no problem but the bonus chapter keeps glitching at the same spot. When I put the gun down to start a mini game it glitches and doesn’t let me do mini game so I can’t proceed in the story line and I’m just stuck. Tried restarting it three times and nothing worked. Annoying since I love this series and never mind paying full price for these games since they’re so fun. Don’t think I’ll be purchasing again unfortunately because I hate not completing storylines.

### 1/5 — Again....

*2020-08-08, version 1.0.2*

Another broken game Oleg.... email offer was at 5.99 but you charged 6.99 on the App Store... can’t even play through bonus chapter... quits at the shotgun puzzle 
And super short....🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤬😡🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤬🤷🏼‍♀️😡

### 1/5 — Glitch on the bonus game

*2020-08-08, version 1.0.2*

Hello I am currently stuck on the bonus game. Hint said I can’t do anything and I can’t go back to other rooms.

### 1/5 — Bonus game glitch

*2020-08-07, version 1.0.2*

After placing gun on table in bonus game, the game froze and I can’t move on.  Latest update did NOT fix this issue:/. This developer has very poor quality control.

### 5/5 — Most entertaining

*2022-04-25, version 1.0.7*

Just found this game. Desperate for games to play of late. This one was great. I recommend. Thank you.

### 5/5 — 🌟❤️

*2020-08-27, version 1.0.3*

Fantastic game I loved it !

### 5/5 — Great game

*2020-08-07, version 1.0.2*

Great game! This is a longer game than most are giving you a bang for your buck. The graphics are good and there is a strategy guide in case you need help. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Loved it.

*2020-08-04*

Great game.   Thanks looking forward to more.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thank you for your great review! We’re so happy you loved our game. Check out others, we’ll be thrilled to hear your next feedback!

### 5/5 — Like this game but ...

*2020-08-03, version 1.0.1*

After purchasing it yesterday every time I start to play again it asks me to Unlock now and I have to click on Already paid to get in the game again. So please sort this out.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2020-08-03, version 1.0.1*

After reading the initial reviews, I was hesitant to try this game. But the bugs must have been fixed, because gameplay was smooth and flawless. As usual, Domini, fabulous job!

### 5/5 — Great so far

*2020-07-31, version 1.0.1*

The captions issue must’ve gotten fixed before I downloaded because it’s all working for me. I love the storyline and everything is flowing and working well. I haven’t purchased yet because I thought it was supposed to be 5.99, but it’s showing 6.99. It’s just a dollar so not a big deal, but thought I’d wait just a bit before I purchase. Can’t wait to settle in and finish this one!

### 4/5 — Enjoyed, but can’t finish Bonus game

*2020-08-20, version 1.0.3*

First all I want to thank Lynx Minx for all the hard work put into giving us our games back.

Now for my review.  I did enjoy this game as I always enjoy the Dark Romance series.  I had no issues throughout the main game. It had nice graphics and I liked most of the games.  Some were a little hard.  

But when I got to the bonus I put the wire in the juke box, but it does not show the wire is there, so I cannot finish the bonus.  Maybe I am missing something.  I have looked at the guide and show nothing is missing to that point.

I do recommend playing this game, but please be sure all the glitches are fixed 100% before buying.

I really look forward to more games from Domini as I have always enjoyed their games.   

However I still can’t play the last game.

Hope all my fellow gamers are safe and doing well.

### 4/5 — Solid game but still has a few issues.

*2020-08-03, version 1.0.1*

Was very difficult to remove items from the “thigh bag”. Had to go back and try multiple times.  The mini game where you remove names from the database does not work.  It does not move on from the first step.  Otherwise, good!  Hope this helps.

### 4/5 — Dark Romance

*2020-08-01, version 1.0.1*

Nice Game
