Object gathering felt fluent. This is one of my favorite games. Thank You! (Bought the game a bit back, offloaded to make room until I could catch upon the sales I’d taken advantage off. No problems with offloading & reinstall.) ### 2/5 — It's all fun and games until it stops working *2017-01-12, version 1.0.0* I was enjoying the game until, like other gamers, I got to a place where the game stopped responding. For me, it was at the shooting range. I could select the bullet while in any other location, but at the range I couldn't select anything in my inventory. If I clicked on hints, it told me to use the bullet with the gun, but it wouldn't respond. I tried rebooting, backing out and coming back in, waiting a few weeks...nothing. I wasted my money on this; don't make the same mistake. (I am using an iPad Air 2.) ### 1/5 — Awful *2017-01-10, version 1.0.0* Either this game is in serious need of an update or it is just sloppy. Hard to figure out sequences and slow responses. Garbage ### 2/5 — Don't waste your money if you're on iPhone 6 or earlier *2016-08-09, version 1.0.0* This game was clearly intended for larger screens. I play Tons of these HOPs and found it nearly impossible to read the captions. Games were actually so hard that I had to skip the majority of them and that was a surprise though. That was the only high point. Disappointed by this one Eipix!! You usually put out good titles. ### 1/5 — Don't waste your money *2016-07-29, version 1.0.0* Very short game, very few hidden object scenes. Definitely not worth the money. ### 1/5 — Very upset.. I want my money back. *2016-07-21, version 1.0.0* I should have read the reviews before I bought this crappy game. I love the dead reckoning series but they were all on my pc. So I thought I'd try this on my iPhone6. I didn't get five minutes into the game before the circus mini game with the rings started freezing and I cant more nothing out my inventory. I want my 7 dollars back. I could have purchased the game in the pc platform with my credits. ### 1/5 — Looked good, but needs fixing *2016-07-19, version 1.0.0* Great artwork, but poorly constructed. Many times I knew what to do, but couldn't get the required part in the right place until using the hint. Now, I can't put the batteries into the flashlight, just says I'd better move along. No matter where I go, the hint just keeps repeating the same thing. Either do a better job, or quit selling games. Not happy! Can you give a program no stars? ### 1/5 — Game is frozen at strongman *2016-07-06, version 1.0.0* Cannot progress when you need to show strongman newspaper clippings. ### 1/5 — Very disappointed *2016-06-26, version 1.0.0* Game froze and will not allow me to give the strongman the news clippings. Waste of money. ### 3/5 — Dead Reckoning: The Crescent Case by LynxMinx *2016-06-23, version 1.0.0* BigFish and EIPIX, in case you're wondering why I rated this game so low, get your QUALITY ASSURANCE under control! The graphics were colorful and bright. The story was easy to follow, and you have an evidence board instead of a diary or journal. You have 3 difficulty levels from which to choose. Loading is almost instantaneous between locations and there is a marked, if so customized, teleport map to transport you. At each location you have a scale of justice to collect. Too bad each time you need to access the map and evidence board you need to exit the game and go into the menu! That's one star off right there. It makes the gameplay extremely tedious! Inventory was labeled and there were plus items to assemble. You also get to use a forensics kit to examine evidence and you also question suspects. There was some variation in the HO scenes. I wasn't crazy about a lot of the mini-games, but there were some that I found original and fun. I removed the second star because I had a lot of trouble manipulating inventory items. I found this game sensitive and glitchy. EIPIX, I would rather have fewer games of higher quality than for you to crank glitchy games out one after another! This is not one of my favorite series, but if you put the map tab and evidence board in the game, it would make the gameplay a lot smoother, and I would consider a sequel. In case you're all wondering, I wasn't afraid of the mouse. It was tiny and I don't even think Dracyy realized that it was in the game, lol! Lynxie sends 💋❤️😘 to the fabulous Dream Team Elite! ## Frequently asked questions about Dead Reckoning ### What is Dead Reckoning: The Crescent Case about?
