### 5/5 — Fun and entertaining

Downloaded this a few years ago but still enjoy playing from time to time. Wish there were more of these games 🙂

### 5/5 — 不错

*2026-07-03*

一会就玩完了，比较简单也不恐怖

### 5/5 — Good game

*2024-04-21*

It’s a nice little point and click adventure, and quite well put together.
Puzzles are not the hardest to solve but enough to keep your interest.
This is totally free and requires no money for hints ( not that your need any hints ) so you have nothing to lose by giving it a try .

The game has a part 2 so i loaded and played that too , it cost 99p but honestly it’s worth it for the game play you get . 
Seasoned player of this type of game would complete it in a hour or so but it not a disappointment at the end .

### 5/5 — Read!

*2023-10-11*

I love this game, but it went by so fast and the second one cost money and I really wanted to play it but now I’m stuck with this one. Please make a new free one for all of us who are getting caught up.

### 5/5 — Delightful

*2023-10-01*

This game and the sequel Daveys 2 are a very enjoyable and relaxing way to while away the day.  Here’s hoping Daveys 3 or something similar is in the pipe work.
