It became frustrating to have to sit through an Ad everytime I wanted to play another level ### 3/5 — Lots of repeated levels *2026-08-10, version 1.8.0* I just started playing and I already had 3 repeated levels. The levels were the same but the names were changed. I do like the game though ### 4/5 — Fun *2026-08-10, version 1.8.0* Always ads ### 2/5 — Muita propaganda *2026-08-04, version 1.8.0* Tem propaganda o tempo inteiro, o que torna a experiência muito ruim. ### 3/5 — Levels repeat *2026-07-29, version 1.8.0* Fun game, but after a while, the levels repeat. ### 2/5 — Fun but the ads… *2026-07-21, version 1.8.0* Game is fun but ads take longer to watch than the time it takes to complete a level. Will be deleting the app. ### 2/5 — Ads Ruin The Game *2026-07-21, version 1.8.0* This is a fun little game – makes you think. But not only are there too many ads, they are far longer than in most other games. Ads have become so annoying that I have deleted the App. ### 3/5 — 広告有る無しを選ぶ意味が無い *2026-07-14* 場面を移る時に、広告動画を見てコインを二倍にするかどうかを選ばせますけど、どちらを選んでも広告動画が出て来ます。 **Developer response:** こんにちは、ゆかりかけた？広告の選択に関する貴重なご意見、ありがとうございます。ご指摘の通り、場面を移る際に広告動画が表示されることがあるのは、プレイ体験に影響を与えるかもしれません。私たちもこの情報を受け取り、できるだけ早く修正に取り組む予定です。ご不便をおかけしますが、今後も楽しい体験を提供できるよう努力してまいりますので、どうぞご期待ください！ ### 1/5 — Werbung ohne Ende!!!!!! *2026-07-13* Man ist gezwungen nach jedem Level Werbung zu sehen , und die ist nicht mal zum weg klicken!!! Level 20 Sekunden, Werbung 1 Minute! Übel 🤢 Wird gelöscht **Developer response:** Hallo arpeodi! Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass die Werbung während des Spiels so störend für dich ist. Werbung hilft uns, die Entwicklung des Spiels fortzusetzen, aber wir werden die Möglichkeit in Betracht ziehen, die Menge an Werbung zu reduzieren. Deine Rückmeldung ist uns wichtig, und wir hoffen, dass du trotz dieser Erfahrung in Zukunft noch Spaß an unseren Spielen haben kannst. Vielen Dank für dein Feedback! ### 2/5 — Way too many ads *2026-07-13, version 1.8.0* Very easy game, hope it gets more challenging. What is most annoying is that there is an annoying ad video after every. single. level!! SO ANNOYING! I close the app after every level to make them go away but I don’t get the coins ### 4/5 — Sometimes, the murderer is OBVIOUS *2026-07-12, version 1.8.0* Hi Detective Files team, I just thought I would mention that sometimes during the levels, the murderer is obvious because of a prop or outfit they are interacting with. As an example, take level 6, when the killer is dressed up in a ghost type outfit with a black robe and a knife. This gave me the idea that he was the killer, and as a result, he was. Overall the game is great! I have only just started the levels but I can’t wait to get further in the game. Thanks ### 3/5 — Anúncio *2026-07-12* É bem repetitivo e para prender o acusado você é obrigado a assistir anúncio mesmo que tenha dinheiro o suficiente **Developer response:** Olá, LanaLua1212! Agradecemos por compartilhar sua experiência. Sabemos que a necessidade de assistir a anúncios para avançar no jogo pode ser um pouco repetitiva, principalmente quando você tem recursos suficientes. Os anúncios ajudam a manter o desenvolvimento do jogo, mas vamos considerar a possibilidade de reduzir a quantidade deles. Seu feedback é muito importante para nós. Esperamos que você continue aproveitando o jogo e que encontre desafios que tornem a experiência ainda mais divertida! ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-07-06, version 1.8.0* Forcing ppl to watch ads when there is an option to watch them or not is diabolical. You have the option to arrest the person and watch ads but if you choose not to you gotta watch an ad anyway. This will be deleted. Really sad bcz the game is fun. Bye ### 3/5 — Anúncios *2026-07-05* Eu gostei muito do jogo, ele é super divertido e dá para passar um bom tempo jogando, mas toda vez que passamos de fase tem que ficar vendo anúncio e isso é cansativo, não precisa tirar todos os anúncios, só diminuir um pouco. **Developer response:** Olá, Anrimiba! É maravilhoso saber que você está se divertindo com o jogo! Agradecemos seu feedback sobre a quantidade de anúncios. Eles ajudam a manter o desenvolvimento do jogo, mas vamos considerar a possibilidade de reduzir a frequência deles. Seu comentário é muito importante para nós e nos ajuda a melhorar a experiência de todos os jogadores. Esperamos que você continue se divertindo enquanto joga! ### 4/5 — 言語学習にちょうどいい *2026-07-03* 広告で気になってダウンロードしました。英語学習にちょうどいいです。学習アプリではなさそうなので仕方ないですが、音声やわからない単語があった時意味のヒントがあったらよかった。 **Developer response:** こんにちは、鴇色さん。 貴重なご意見ありがとうございます！英語学習に役立っているとのことでとても嬉しく思います。音声やわからない単語のヒントについてのアイデアは素晴らしいですね。今後の改善にぜひ活かさせていただきます。引き続き、楽しい学習をお楽しみください！ ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — So many ads *2026-08-28, version 1.8.0* Cute game and would be addicting but I can’t sit through unskippable ads after every single level so I had to delete ### 1/5 — Too much ads *2026-08-21, version 1.8.0* Fun however too much ads. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-10, version 1.8.0* There is an ad after every round takes forever to get anywhere ### 1/5 — ADS *2026-08-03, version 1.8.0* There are ads constantly and they’re over a minute long. Otherwise the game wouldn’t be too bad. ### 1/5 — Fun but riddled with ads *2026-07-29, version 1.8.0* The game has cute graphics and seems fun so far. Will be deleting. Long ads after each level that you cannot skip. The ads are longer than each level. ### 1/5 — Blackmail *2026-07-18* Another game that blackmail you into watching ads ex: literally in the tutorial the game say quote: jail the murderer(ad) or let im go(no ad), don’t support **Developer response:** Hello spyronat! It's concerning to hear that you felt pressured by the ad prompts during the tutorial. Ads help us continue developing the game, but we will consider the possibility of reducing their frequency. Your feedback is invaluable as we strive to create an enjoyable experience. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and we hope you’ll keep providing feedback as you navigate the game! ### 1/5 — 結局動画を見ないとご褒美貰えない！ *2026-07-15* ステージをクリアした後に「刑務所送り」で動画を見ると報酬が×2で、「解放する」を選択したら普通は動画を見ずにご褒美が貰えるはずですが、解放するを選択しても動画が流れて動画を見ずに強制終了してもステージが進まずどちらを選択しても動画を見ないとご褒美もらえません！ 詐欺みたいなゲームなのでアンインストールします！ **Developer response:** こんにちは、ショコッチさん。ご意見をいただきありがとうございます。ゲームの報酬システムについてのご不満、特に動画を見ないと報酬が得られない点について理解しました。プレイ中に思うように進められず、ストレスを感じていることをお察しします。もし可能でしたら、ゲーム内のサポート機能を使って、具体的な問題をお知らせいただけると助かります。あなたの声が大切ですので、引き続き楽しんでいただけることを願っています。 ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-07-15, version 1.8.0* Another game that throws ads at you after each round and these ads typically last longer than the rounds themselves. It’s also a stupid easy game and was clearly built by AI as I barely works. ### 1/5 — 범인잡으면 광고봐야함 *2026-07-14* 범인 잡아서 광고보면 30 안보고 풀어주면 15 잡으라는건지 말라는건지 **Developer response:** 안녕하세요, ㅈㄷㄴㅅㅇㅈㄷㄴㅅㅂㄱ님! 게임 진행 중 광고 시청에 대한 혼란을 느끼셨군요. 범인을 잡은 후 광고를 봐야 하는 점이 불편하게 느껴지셨을 것 같습니다. 광고는 게임 개발을 지속할 수 있도록 도와주지만, 광고 수를 줄일 수 있는 가능성도 고려하겠습니다. 귀하의 소중한 피드백은 정말 중요하며, 더 나은 경험을 제공하기 위해 최선을 다하겠습니다. 감사합니다! ### 1/5 — Devs don’t care about the ads *2026-07-13, version 1.8.0* Two clues copied straight from level 7; “Matt and Julian are fishing buddies hanging out on the pier.” And, “Julian loves ranting about annoying mobile game ads while waiting for a bite.” Idk but that was enough for me to delete the game. You’ve left responses to other people’s reviews, saying you’ll consider scaling back on the frequency of ads. And, honestly, that’s why I still tried the game out, despite all the people ‘ranting’ about it. Only to see that clue, SO EARLY ON TOO, it felt like a slap in the face or something. I understand needing ad revenue, but you’d rather blatantly mock your player-base?? That’s wild! Yall deserve NO stars & NO playtime. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It’s fine *2026-09-01, version 1.8.0* So far so good it’s easy. It’s fun. I’m enjoying playing it. Not very good at it so i’m glad it starts easy at the beginning. We’ll see. ### 5/5 — Comprensión lectora *2026-08-30, version 1.8.0* Ayuda la los estudiantes a tener una buena comprensión lectora de una forma divertida. ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-08-25, version 1.8.0* Fun game. Great clues ### 5/5 — Concept is great *2026-08-17, version 1.8.0* I’ve started to get more into the game & am finally seeing how much fun the game is. At first, the clues didn’t help much but further into the game, i’m enjoying it more. Also, appreciate the response back from the creators ### 5/5 — amazing *2026-07-20, version 1.8.0* Basically living out my dream as Sherlock Holmes ### 5/5 — SO FUN ! more please🥺🙏🏽 *2026-06-25, version 1.8.0* i just downloaded this game today because i used to study forensic science & recently got into gaming , so i wanted to find a crime related / solving game but with a cute art style & not so realistic… well when i say this game is PERFECT ! i mean it😭 the art style is cute and blobby , the characters are cute , and just the whole concept of the game is actually so dope but so simple ! i love the short written prompts to figure out where everyone is supposed to go to find the culprit , and i love the ability to choose at the end of every level if we want to arrest the culprit😭 i really do hope that saygames makes more levels/scenes and new prompts for this game to keep it fun and creative for as long as they can , i would love to play this game for as long as possible😭😭 i also have downloaded so many other games from this company , and they released an update for this one 3 weeks ago , so i know they won’t disappoint us , we just have to be patient for the new levels …😌 thank you so much saygames for this game ! much love , will be recommending !💕💕 ### 5/5 — 광고가넘많음 *2026-06-21* 재미있는데광고좀줄여주세요 **Developer response:** 안녕하세요, 김가북님! 게임이 재미있다고 말씀해 주셔서 정말 기쁩니다. 광고는 게임 개발을 지속하는 데 도움을 주지만, 광고의 양을 줄이는 가능성도 고려해 보겠습니다. 여러분의 소중한 피드백에 감사드리며, 앞으로도 더욱 즐거운 경험을 제공하기 위해 최선을 다하겠습니다! ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-06-12, version 1.8.0* Just started.. fun so far 😊 ### 5/5 — 言語を変えると楽しい *2026-05-27* 多言語を楽しく学ぶツールとして楽しいし、絵柄が可愛い **Developer response:** こんにちは、いるい66さん！楽しく言語を学べる機能や可愛いデザインを楽しんでいただけて嬉しいです！これからも新しい言語を学ぶ楽しさを感じていただけるよう、より良い体験を提供していきますので、ぜひご期待ください。ご意見やご要望があれば、いつでもお知らせくださいね！ ### 5/5 — Very fun concept *2026-05-22, version 1.7.1* Unique game, reminds me of murdle but better only thing I would change is when you drag the characters, it’s very off centred like my thumb is at the button but the people are floating and it’s made me make mistakes- but other than that I’m loving it so far been recommending to my family!
