## What is Edna & Harvey?

The award-winning debut adventure game from the creators of The Whispered World and Deponia now on the iPad. Accompany young Edna and her talking stuffed bunny Harvey on a whacky attempt to escape from her padded cell. Experience a bizarre journey all across the insane asylum and far beyond its brick walls.

At the beginning, young Edna wakes up in the padded cell of an insane asylum with no memory of her past. She doesn’t have the slightest idea how she wound up there, but one thing is for sure, she wants out! After all, she feels perfectly sane – and her talking stuffed bunny Harvey agrees completely. Together, they attempt an escape and, in doing so, meet their extremely bizarre fellow patients – from the man in the bee costume to the pseudo-Siamese twins Hoti and Moti. But Dr. Marcel, head of the asylum, will stop at nothing to keep Edna from escaping. What does he have planned for her? And why was her memory erased? Gradually, Edna regains her memory of the time before her detention in her cell…

### 5/5 — Help

*2026-05-02, version 1.2*

There’s a book that elevator scene that requires the clothes hanger thing the menu for rooms would not show oh and of course can you add a hint system cause that really helps us with the hard puzzles is that smart it could be like this one that could show us where we must do yeah oh do not forget. Remember that by the way.

### 5/5 — NICE!

*2025-03-29, version 1.2*

good game and is worth the money

### 5/5 — If only this was on the iPhone

*2022-12-02, version 1.2*

If only this was on the iPhone

### 5/5 — My favorite game along with Harvey’s new eyes

*2022-08-19, version 1.2*

I keep coming back to play this game. I love how childish the art is but how it’s also so dark and creepy. Edna is someone who is flawed but also makes us root for her. The game play is hard to figure out sometimes so I needed a walkthrough when I got stuck. Otherwise, it’s so good and entertaining and the music is bomb

### 1/5 — Huge bug- can not get past the first scene anymore.

*2022-03-05, version 1.2*

I have a feeling that the developers updated the game recently to allow easier access to inventory items. Unfortunately, you can not progress past the first chapter - the padded room.  It only allows one slash per pad. As a result, you can not exit the room. This is literally the first action of the game beyond the initial prologue. I double checked with a walk through. The inventory appeared different - hence my thoughts that the game has been updated. 
I am always hesitant to pay upfront for a game. I always appreciate a developer offering a couple of chapters for free so the player can see if the game suits their taste.  I am more than willing to pay for a game that I like. I always jump on board to buy every game that is then released by that developer in the same genre.  I will stay away from developers that peddle a flawed product. This was a waste of money. I fear that future products will be the same.

### 5/5 — Where is the remake?

*2021-10-28, version 1.2*

Love this game, it really need the remastered version on here too.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2021-03-12, version 1.2*

This is a great game, in the vein of monkey island or Sam and Max. The humour is quite dark and it has some disturbing themes. Probably not great for kids.

### 5/5 — Fun at the Nuthouse

*2021-02-08, version 1.2*

This game is very clever (probably worth more). To get through and figure out the difficulties, you’ll probably have to shift your consciousness to ‘looney tunes’ mode. But as you’re a human, that shouldn’t be a problem. The creators are clearly nuts.

### 5/5 — WOW!!!

*2020-11-19, version 1.2*

Amazing game!!! Totally worth it!!

### 5/5 — Only because we played it on pc

*2020-04-10, version 1.2*

This game and Harvey new eyes are two endlessly replay games. If you like funny humor, dirty humor, and dark humor mix and than you will DEFINITELY like these two games!
