### 1/5 — Could not advance

*2025-05-13, version 1.0.2*

Like others have stated, I could not collect shield #5 in the tower. It assembled fine from the broken pieces, but would not progress further. An email to Help Desk resulted in zero help. The response was that there was no walkthrough to help me, and no refund was offered. Whatever.

### 3/5 — Unhinged

*2024-03-01, version 1.0.2*

The game is all over the place, the story line is not the best. Poor response to the touch screen on lots of ho’s things not hidden in the usual sense just dark patches and lack of response. Shame because with a bit of work could be a five star game. When we are being charged £7.00 a game, you would think these problems would be sorted

### 1/5 — Paying twice

*2023-09-10, version 1.0.2*

I bought this game a few years ago and have played it several times. Now, in order to play it again, I have to purchase it…again. What’s going on? I thought it was just a glitch with one game. No, four Big Fish games are saying I have not purchased. Sooo disappointing! I like going back to older games and replaying, but I’m not paying for them twice.

### 5/5 — Dana knightstone

*2023-07-26, version 1.0.2*

I love these games . I play them a lot especially on big fish games . Wish you guys had all the other ones like before 😳.

### 3/5 — Review

*2021-02-12, version 1.0.2*

It’s fun to play but the puzzles have no directions to understand what needs to be done.

### 4/5 — error in the game for iPad

*2020-06-13, version 1.0.2*

I can not get a shield behind Viktor by tapping on it. Because of this, it is impossible to play further.
developers, fix the game for iPad, otherwise people are wasting money on buying.

### 3/5 — Great start

*2020-04-12, version 1.0.2*

Games fun but, you have to hit somethings multiple times for game to acknowledge it was hit. Games fun as heck when not being hung up. Will buy when game issues delt with. Big fish games are my favorite. Always have been always will (most likely....lol)

### 4/5 — Wünschte die Serie wäre fortgesetzt worden

*2020-02-29, version 1.0.2*

Die Spielreihe hat immer sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Nicht zuletzt auch wegen des Spielcharakters.

### 4/5 — Really good game

*2020-02-09, version 1.0.2*

The storyline was amazing. Lots of puzzles. Lovely bonus content.

### 2/5 — WHY delete the other Dana Knightstone games?

*2020-01-04, version 1.0.2*

Why did you guys delete the other games? They were fun!
