### 4/5 — Update

*2025-11-03, version 1.1.3*

Problem was taken care of quickly. I was excited to
see a game from my favorite Friendly Fox only to
see it was a mad head game. Game was ok will
wait patiently until a new Friendly Fox original 
game comes out. I might be bias but your games
are the best. Thanks.🦊🥰

### 4/5 — So happy to see this title again

*2025-11-02, version 1.1.3*

Played all the Dawn of Hope games on mobile and very pleased to see a new mobile game —the partnership between FF and MH is a real bonus to us non-PC players. Game was fun, engaging and in keeping with others in the title, in terms of tone and intent. Inspires me to play the others all over again. MH has some of the best HOPs and tho I don’t always play puzzles (no aptitude for them) with the guide help, I managed them and actually enjoyed the challenge for once. Keep ‘em coming. Please! (BTW: deducted a star becauese of touch issues, especially the HOP done by spotlight. Very difficult to get the lighted segment to move.)

### 2/5 — Feels dated

*2025-10-30*

The graphics and game feel dated

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing your thoughts! This game might feel a bit different from other series, but we hope you’ll enjoy the gameplay and have a great experience. 💛

### 5/5 — My “Soul” is Melting Because This Game is on Fire!

*2025-10-26*

MadHead has a clever imagination because they create games that combine fresh and captivating story lines, impressive settings, and interesting characters. Using a combination of elvin magic and mostly old-school technology, you and your elvin friend will be taken on an extraordinary journey through post-dystopian terrains, while fighting to free the ancient elves from the clutches of the power-privileged group “The Society,” who are unleashing their tyranny with a ubiquitous ice frost across the landscapes. The excellent storytelling suggests an epic “Lord of the Rings” semblance, as humans and elves must band together to fight off a powerful but dangerous group of elite assassins. MadHead is adept at showcasing extensive character development, as the fierce bond between the elves and humans makes them emotionally relatable. The engaging narrative is expertly incorporated into the gameplay, as you learn the backstory through interactive hidden-object scenes and other means. The varied, entertaining puzzles are action-driven and suit your objectives to solve predicaments. I like that a journal records your clues and objectives. The game appears to be free of glitches. I rate this game a well-deserved five stars. I downloaded this game on Sunday, a day after an update; so I was able to play the correct game from the start. Thus, those players who downloaded a faulty version days earlier should be on the look-out for an impending update.

### 5/5 — Reviews

*2025-10-26, version 1.1.2*

I usually read reviews before I play a game this time. I’m glad I didn’t listen. The game is awesome. Graphics are great and I haven’t had any issues. Gotta give it a shot.

### 5/5 — Epic

*2025-10-26, version 1.1.2*

Thank you guys for another brilliant game. Friendly Fox never disappoints. Great work! 👍

### 5/5 — Frozen Soul

*2025-10-26, version 1.1.2*

This is a Madhead game, which I have always loved. Their unique style and mini games are a winner for me. I had no problems at all with this game. This has a dystopian landscape with a traitorous villain.The game is lengthy and has a helper, in this instance a machine that freezes or heats items.  The collectibles are sometimes hard to find, and the mini games are in the unique  MadHead style. Definitely worth purchasing.

### 5/5 — Dawn of Hope: Frozen Soul by LynxMinx

*2025-10-26, version 1.1.2*

Your kingdom is being swallowed up by frost and ice, and the only entity who can help you is the Elven Queen. But the catch is that first you must free her! Let the thrill ride begin. With quirky gameplay as only Mad Head can provide, you have a neat gimmick and some wonderful friends to help you. What type of gimmick? No way! That would be a spoiler alert and you know that I don’t do those anymore. Well, maybe a small one. The gimmick has its own mini-game associated with it. So basically I just told you nothing! After all, what would be the purpose? I can tell you that this fantasy- themed game is fast-paced, with twists and turns, the collectibles are challenging to find, and the mini-games are interesting and enjoyable! You use magic alongside technology. Although I did not care for the other games in this series, this one was a winner. All I can say is purchase, play and expect the unexpected! Thank you to Friendly Fox for distributing this imaginative and innovative gem of an adventure!

### 2/5 — It’s the wrong game

*2025-10-24, version 1.1.1*

The title for this game does not match what is the title in the game when you open the app. Could the wrong one have been uploaded?

### 1/5 — I’ve played this game before

*2025-11-15, version 1.1.3*

It says no record of purchase, but I’ve definitely played this game before. Could it have been released under a different name previously?

### 1/5 — Dawn of Hope

*2025-10-28, version 1.1.2*

At least the correct game downloaded but it’s not very good, nowhere near the standard of the usual Friendly Fox games so I don’t think I’ll be purchasing the full game, very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Glitches galore

*2025-10-26, version 1.1.2*

First the wrong game was attached to this download, and now even after updating you are stopped from playing the trial and have to immediately buy it outright. Useless.

### 1/5 — Downloaded 4 times and it is Wanderlust Bermuda Secrets not DOH

*2025-10-25, version 1.1.1*

Not sure if it is glitch or what

### 1/5 — This is not the right game.

*2025-10-25*

I downloaded this game but it is really Wunderlust game I don’t. think you got the right one. It’s not Dawn of hope at all . Please fix.

### 1/5 — Wrong game

Wanderlust is what downloads and not this game

### 1/5 — Cant play full version

*2025-10-24, version 1.1.1*

*2025-10-24*

### 1/5 — Different Game

*2025-10-24, version 1.1.1*

I’ve downloaded this twice now and each time it’s giving me, ‘Wanderlust: The Bermuda Secret’ which is totally different game! What’s going on!?

### 2/5 — Backtracks When Leaving Game

*2025-12-09, version 1.1.4*

Despite some good graphics and storyline, the game is a bust for me. When I close my iPad or leave the game for a period of time, the game goes back Many moves and would require me to repeat puzzles and travels. Too many times so I am Done!

Finally I am really enjoying this game.  I love the graphics.  It’s very eye appealing and something’s are down right hilarious and maybe they aren’t supposed to be but it’s given me great enjoyment.

### 5/5 — Amazing and Gorgeous

*2025-11-03, version 1.1.3*

This game took me to other worlds, and I gladly followed. The artwork is detailed and gorgeous, the music compelling, and the puzzles a mix of simple and challenging. I couldn’t “unfreeze” my fingers from playing it. 

Thank you Mad Head and Friendly Fox! Thank you Lynxie, Kim T, and other reviewers as well.

*2025-10-27, version 1.1.2*

I downloaded this game but it is really Wunderlust game I don’t. think you got the right one. It’s not Dawn of hope at all . Please fix.

Update Saturday 25th The problem is fixed it’s the right game now. It’s a really good game. It’s holds your interest the whole game.  So now it’s 5 stars. To Lynx I’m sending prayers your way.

### 5/5 — Wrong game and no puzzle info

*2025-10-27, version 1.1.2*

Downloaded what we thought was a fresh new game called Dawn of Hope - Frozen Soul, but when we opened the game up, it turned out to be Wanderlust - The Bermuda Secret! What’s going on?

Update - thank you for sorting an update so we can access the game - it is very good but when playing the puzzles, all the puzzle information panels have nothing written in them. Can you please sort this out?

### 5/5 — Sunday - Correct one up now

*2025-10-26, version 1.1.2*

Just started, but feels out of the Wanderlust path.  Update further when played more just wanted to raise awareness of correction.
