### 4/5 — Баг

*2026-07-21*

Игра супер. Но у меня баг и не могу пройти второй эпизод. На этапе введения кода в холодильнике надпись ERROR до того как я ввела код

### 3/5 — It's ok so far, but nothing special

*2026-01-01*

I played the first couple of episodes so maybe it gets better but I'm not wowed by the game. I had my eye on this game for a while because the reviews are so unanimously positive- but so far it's just meh. 

Maybe my bar is a little high right now because I just finished Slim Threads (amazing!) and Chants of Sennar (so unique) so this game just seems like it's trying but not quite hitting the mark. Voice acting is generally good except for the actress who does Aurora. She sounds flat and emotionless; and not in an intentional Aubrey Plaza way.   

I really want to like this game so I'm going to finish it regardless, and hopefully the rest of the episodes will make me change my review. Will update if that's the case.

### 4/5 — Dexter Stardust

*2025-07-15*

Disappointing. The cut scenes are self-indulgent and I cannot get past level 2 because I cannot use an inventory item with a character even after watching walkthroughs.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2024-12-25*

I just finished this today, it was so good, really really enjoyed playing this game and can not wait until the next one.

**Developer response:** Thanks for playing! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it. Working on the next one 😉 - Jeremy

### 5/5 — Great fun!

*2024-12-25, version 1.04*

Such a fun game. I can’t wait for the next part!!

### 5/5 — Great game and value!

*2024-12-23, version 1.04*

I'd like to get some tacos with Lola but if not, I'll take Crazy Carl. Make more games!!!

### 5/5 — Jeremy please make the sequel!!

*2024-12-15*

Jeremy, this is One of my favorite games I’ve ever had the pleasure of playing. I won’t pretend to know the first thing about game development or any of the nuances that must go into creating such an all around amazing game like this one. I am just a fan who is really looking forward to playing the finished game or sequel and figured reaching out wont hurt. I read one of the reviews you responded to a year ago saying the sequel will be released in 2024 but it’s just about 2025 so I’m getting a lil nervous lol. So, if you see this and have the time to respond, I (and reading the reviews many other fans as well) would love an update on when we can expect our new game! I replay this game every few months but I fear I have played it to its full extent now. I really mean this, if there is anything we can do to get the second game, I know I am willing to help in any way possible. Thanks for all your amazing work Jeremy! 
-A forever fan

### 5/5 — Does anyone know?

*2024-11-05*

Can anyone tell me when they will have the rest of the game finished? I played this game years ago and just replayed it and they set it up in a way that made it seem like it’s unfinished and there will be more chapters or another game to follow. It’s weird because I feel like the game did really well according to the App Store so I wonder why we haven’t gotten the rest of the game or any updates on when to expect it in so long?

### 5/5 — Great story!

*2024-09-15*

Although sometimes it is difficult to identify items that can be picked up and it is a lot of running back and forth, this is quite fun to play due to the excellent story and sound. Marvelous speakers!!!!
Would love to see more of that!

### 5/5 — korean sub plz…

*2024-09-09*

게임은 너무 재밌을거 같은데 한글화가 안 돼서 더 재밌게 즐길 수가 없어요.. ㅠㅠㅠ

### 5/5 — Klasse!

*2024-08-19*

Ein tolles Point-and-Click-Adventure mit guter Story, bis in die Ecken durchdacht. Spannend, lustig, knifflige und unterhaltsame Rätsel, immer logisch. Charaktere und Stimmen auf Spielfilmniveau. Man möchte am Ende ein T-Shirt von Dexter Stardust und hofft auf eine Fortsetzung. Klare Empfehlung!

### 3/5 — It’s OK

*2024-08-14, version 1.04*

Good graphics and puzzles BUT the dialogue is awful! Wayyy too long and boring, like a toddlers version of comedy. also we get it - you’re Mexican! Stop going on about the damn burritos and tacos! Very childish to base the main character’s entire personality on being Mexican. Could’ve been a great game but the stupid jokes and dialogue kinda ruins it

### 5/5 — :(

*2024-07-11, version 1.04*

I was really into this game but when I try to leave where the “guitar cords” are I’m trying to go the entrance it keeps crashing. I can’t even finish the game bc it crashes everytime

### 5/5 — Great!

*2024-06-29*

Can’t wait for the sequel

### 1/5 — French on steam but not here …

*2025-09-27*

…

### 1/5 — Can’t progress - bug with code *Spoiler Alert*

*2025-03-30, version 1.04*

I have got stuck at episode 2 and cannot progress further. It will not let me enter the code for the soda fridge. I’ve done everything correctly ie got the decoder glasses and read the code on the rooftop but it doesn’t work! I’ve watched walkthrough videos to make sure I’m not doing anything wrong and I’m using the right sequence (which I am) and have tried multiple times. Gutted. I was really enjoying the game so far and thought it was well worth the money but now I can’t play it. There is no link in the game for support so my only option was to leave a review to raise the issue.

### 1/5 — Amazing

*2024-08-16, version 1.04*

Everything just perfect. I dont know HOW much effort it cost but it is a masterpiece

### 1/5 — waste of my money

*2024-04-25, version 1.04*

Wasted money and total disappointment. The visual effects are great I admit but between the game freezing, tripping out and the length of time it takes to load each scene I don’t want to play anymore. I would have given zero stars but that is not an option.

### 1/5 — Aweful

*2022-10-14, version 1.04*

If you like watching cut scenes, slow moving dialog, and zero challenges, this might work for you…

### 2/5 — A story rather than a game

*2024-09-23*

I really love point and click adventures but I prefer to have more puzzles and less story. This had really great graphics and a good interface but it was probably 80% story and chatting to characters and moving around from screen to screen and then 20% gameplay, and I just found it boring.
If you enjoy working through a story then this will be perfect for you, because it’s been well made, but I don’t recommend it if you’re looking for a game.

### 2/5 — Good game but…..

*2024-04-05*

Three quarters of the way through and all the items in my inventory have just disappeared so I can’t finish the game

**Developer response:** Hello Liz, thank you for playing Dexter Stardust. Let's see -- are you referring to when the Bog Monster eats some of your inventory items? Or are you referring to episode 4? Either way, this is correct. You should be able to look up a walkthrough on YouTube that will show you what to do. If you continue to experience an issue, please let me know at dexterteamgames@gmail.com.

### 2/5 — Mehr öder Text als Rätsel…

*2024-03-23*

Spielstände werden nicht gespeichert, so dass man ständig von vorne anfangen muss, dazu gibt es keine richtigen Rätsel oder knifflige Situationen, so dass es mehr einem langweiligen Film gleichkommt, denn einem Spiel… das Geld nicht wert!

**Developer response:** Thank you for trying out my game. Sorry to hear it didn't resonate with you. As for the saved games, games are automatically saved when you pick up a new item. However, the game relies on the player manually saving, in the same vain as classic point and click adventure games. Make sure to save your game regularly as you play. Any questions? Let me know at dexterteamgames@gmail.com - Jeremy

### 2/5 — Terrible

*2023-12-04*

The dialogue and voice acting in this game were created by special needs people. Anyone who has rated this game highly is either under the age of seven, or special needs themselves. I completed all 4 episodes. I love adventure games. This is one of the worst I’ve ever seen. The jokes are nowhere near funny and the storyline is predictable. If I was Mexico, I’d sue the company that made it. It makes Mexicans seem like absolute morons.

**Developer response:** Thank you for playing my game. First of all, I appreciate your honestly. Second, this game was created and voice acted by a mix of people, including latino individuals. Dexter Stardust himself is voice acted by my friend, Munk, who is Mexican. We're sorry to hear that it didn't resonate with you. Even the highest rated games are not for everyone. All the best! - Jeremy

### 3/5 — Had expected so much more

*2026-07-04*

After playing " The Abandoned Planet" I had expected more from this games developers. Maybe it was the porting, or my expectation issues but I just cant play this further. I expected a better storyline with an intriguing main character, this seemed more bumbling layabout who had more of a cliché worthless hero feel. I had several heartaches with path selection, item screens and just bad dialogue. Many of the puzzle interactions were frustrating, I knew what to do but couldnt due to not examining the item one more time or not clicking the appropriate interaction icon, it became tedious and unenjoyable. Path selection became frustrating as I would attempt to see where I could go and wind up moving to a place I didnt wish to, I think that was more of a port issue but still frustrating.. I will say the artistry was well done and the voiced actors were  well performed, but when you have one adult female who I felt should have been the star, and one supposed hero who is the complete dipolar opposite of a person you expect to be adventuring in a successful business I feel they had little to work with. Some controls were nice to have, like tapping on the path icon a few times got the character to hustle along, but I felt a skip button or the ability to move through worthless dialogue or fast traveling could have been helpful. I look forward to other games the developers have since playing the much enjoyed "The Abandoned Planet" but I  must shelve this one.

### 5/5 — Russian localisation, please 🙏

*2026-06-02, version 1.04*

The game is wonderful!

### 5/5 — Eins der besten Spiele

*2026-01-17*

Eins der besten Spiele die ich gespielt habe. Gute Spieldauer.

### 5/5 — Great storyline!

*2025-12-28, version 1.04*

This was such a blast and the nods to former genre classics was an excellent touch!  We’re really looking forward to the 2nd half!  Any plans in the works for a future release date?

### 5/5 — When is the next one coming ?

*2025-09-25*

The game is excellent with many a nod to the classics of the genre. I ant wait for more from dexter stardust.

### 5/5 — Gaming done right

*2025-07-22*

We’re eagerly awaiting the next installment, this game is truly something special. It’s a rare gem that appeals across generations: my 17-year-old, my 10-year-old, and I all had an absolute blast playing it. It’s not often you find a game that strikes the perfect balance for such a wide age range.

The story is engaging, the humor hits just right, and the mix of challenging and more relaxed puzzles keeps everyone entertained. The visuals are sharp, and the cutscenes, voice acting, and music are all top notch. Best of all, it runs flawlessly, there are no glitches, just pure fun from start to finish. This is gaming done right.

### 5/5 — Where’s the 2nd half

*2025-07-18*

Im so ready to finish this story! I love the game but where’s part 2? It’s not replayable  If there doesn’t have an ending… any word on when the next one comes out? 

Awesome game! I'm sad it's a TBC because I have to wait for an ending & Im waiting on about 5 other games to have an ending but they never did .. BESIDES THST this game is long and well put together, funny, great graphics & story, well worth the money and I really hope the developers come out with a great ending, I'll be looking for it, great job developers, any idea when it is?
Thank you! Happy to hear that!

**Developer response:** Thanks! So happy to hear that you enjoyed it. Good news - I'm already working on the sequel and at this time it's about 1/3 completed. Working hard on it almost everyday! ;) - Jeremy

### 5/5 — 한글화안되있어도 왠만큼 즐겨요

*2025-04-07*

In episode 3, the screwdriver suddenly disappeared, so I can't proceed. I opened the lower panel of the guitar, so I can't get the fuse. Please help me. I already opened two doors. The spacecraft patch is also gone

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-02-23, version 1.04*

It’s fascinating that such a great game was created mostly by a single person (except for voicing)

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2025-02-21*

Really took me back to the good old days of adventuring, graphics and story are sublime.

### 5/5 — Absolutely Exceptional Game

*2025-02-11*

This beautifully animated adventure game is a joy to play! The production values are first rate. Pacing is good. Story is engaging. Voice acting is very good. The puzzles are mostly of an appropriate difficulty. The only criticism I have is that a very small subset of the puzzles are overly non-intuitive, but I guess that’s the point of walk-throughs.  One other thought: an actual hint system would decrease the occasional frustration.
