I used to play this on my older iPad, no problem until…

Love the macabre feel and it does do Edgar Allan Poe justice. I love playing without hints. Makes it seem as real to life as possible.

However, I keep getting kicked out of the whole game when I click on a door in the cellar of the bonus chapter. I’m now playing from the beginning of the main game again. I did put in a request for tech support. I’ll change my review to five stars when it’s fixed.

Bof

La périphérie du jeu est trop restreinte, trop sensible : lorsqu’on touche l’écran à 5 cm du bas on est aussitôt éjecté de la scène de jeu pour retourner à la scène précédente. Trop d’objets cachés (trop de listes d’objets à trouver). Énigmes bof bof. Déçue de d’avoir acheté ce jeu.

Paid for full game and got NOTHING

I paid for the full game a few days ago and haven’t been able to play since. It doesn’t load as if I’ve already purchased, and when I click on the “already purchased” button the app crashes. REFUND PLEASE. Pretty sure you deleted the first review I left without responding lol. Scammers. UPDATE: my refund request was rejected but no one has even attempted to help me access what I paid for.

Stopped working after I purchased the full version

I finished the free bit and then went ahead to buy the full version and afterwards it promptly crashed. I opened the game back up, it was as if I had never purchased, so I clicked on “already purchased” and it crashed again. This is the only result I am able to get from the game now that I paid for it. It’s too bad because it was a good game but now I want a refund.
